Episode Summary:

The document discusses the concept of cloning and its feasibility, particularly in humans, referencing various theories and examples. It begins with a casual introduction by the author, who then delves into a discussion on cloning, sparked by a claim that the author was taken to Guantanamo Bay and cloned. The document critiques the practicality of cloning humans, citing the low success rates in animal cloning, such as Dolly the sheep, and the complexities involved in human cloning. It mentions historical instances of bioengineering in religious texts, suggesting that figures like Moses and Jesus were products of such practices, albeit not through cloning but bioengineering.

The text challenges the notion of cloning humans by addressing the technical and biological hurdles, such as the need for a womb (natural or artificial) and the time required for a clone to grow. It highlights the impossibility of replicating a person's memories and experiences in a clone, as these are not stored in DNA. The discussion extends to the concept of souls and their role in the development of a human being, arguing that cloning without a soul would not result in a viable human clone. The document also touches upon the idea of alien-human hybrids and criticizes such theories as unfounded and scientifically implausible.

Overall, the document offers a skeptical view on the possibility of human cloning and hybridization, emphasizing the lack of scientific evidence and the ethical and philosophical questions surrounding these concepts.

Clonez - 02-13-2024

Hello humans. Hello humans. February 28, a little after eight in the morning, I'm running a little tiny bit late. Gotta get my ass into town and have a, got a couple of appointments I gotta get get to one will take about an hour, and then I can do some semi regular shopping and then go meet with these other guys and discuss a few things and then head back outbound anyway, so all kinds of things to talk about here, let me get my stuff settled.

So bitcoin is up to over 60,000 this morning.

The projections on that are pretty clear at this point. As I had said, we're into the period of the crackup boom. This is the contratif understanding of how fiat currency systems end. It's not capitalism dying, it's the fiat currency, central bank, global reserve thing that's dying. Right?

Capitalism is the only effective natural economic system. Socialism, communism, all of these kind of things are artifacts, are ideologies that are laid over the economics, and they don't really work, and they always crap out, and they always crap out violently because of the nature of the hatred that is inbuilt into socialism and communism. These are hateful ideologies that have flaws built into their very nature by the fact that they were invented as whole structures by the Elohim worship cult. Anyway, so bitcoin's way up last month or so, and it will continue to rise as we get further into the crack up boom. We can expect some pretty spectacular dollar numbers relative to bitcoin.

And then maybe ultimately we're going to break open the suppression and control on silver and gold, and we'll see them follow the same kind of path as bitcoin within the crack up boom. So we'll see commodities, okay? It's not going to be all commodities because some things like real estate, are not necessarily going to participate. It's an interesting time. So I'm actually expecting, as bitcoin prices rise, continue to rise, as gold and silver keep banging against that wall of suppression, I'm expecting further degradation in the real estate market, to the point that we'll actually have mainstream media having to comment on the collapse of real estate.

It's already started with the commercial real estate. And so the commercial real estate market in the US basically has collapsed, and it is not going to recover anytime soon, and it's very likely not ever going to recover under a Federal Reserve node petrodollar. So that's what's dying, okay? The petrodollar that backs all the other fiat currencies is dying. The European Union thinks that they can keep their, the European Central bank thinks they can keep their aggregate euro currency going, and it's already dying and they're just scrambling like mad to try and keep it together against the continuing breakup of their European Union, which was not an organic thing.

It was engineered since the 1960s. I saw the beginning of that. I saw the beginning of the mother Weffers push towards a common united Europe that they could wield like the United States as a single entity. I saw that in the 60s with the introduction of the common market language and how they started changing and doing their social engineering then, because that was anti organic kind of mood, I guess you'd say. So the popular mood after World War II was everybody go home and lick their wounds, tighten up, clean up all of this kind of stuff.

Instead, the globalists push and push and push to get this, quote, democratization of Europe, which means the destruction of the republics and smoosh them all together into the EU. And we're here now. So bitcoin's going to be going up. All the cryptos will go up to a certain extent. Many cryptos will die in the near future.

All right, so we're talking a few months and we'll start seeing some level of crypto death. Just even as we're seeing new all time highs for bitcoin and all different kinds of currencies, we're very close to that in the dollar. Once we get a new all time high, over 63,000 in bitcoin in the dollar, then it will really rush up. The projections are by a lot of people that are doing charting this kind of shit. The projections are that bitcoin is going to scale up fairly rapidly as we approach the having, which is estimated to be April 19.

Now, based on how much, many transactions, really how many transactions are in the blockchain? And so the projection is April 19 as we go through there. The projections are that the bitcoin price will exceed $120,000 us. So it would double from today's value over these next few months, assuming we follow the more or less regular pattern that we encountered, that we all have so far encountered in having years. So if we have that, we'll go up over 120,000, maybe that takes into fall or something, and then there will be a pullback.

It might be a 20,000 or $30,000 pullback. And so bitcoin might drop back down into the upper 90s. Right. Okay, so what are these guys doing here? Hang on, I've got some squeeze driving to do between buses and weird ass contractor guys.

Okay, so bitcoin goes up to the 120,000, drops down into the upper 90s, makes a floor into the upper ninety s, and then pushes through that floor and beyond the rest of this year, as the fiat currencies continue their degradation and the social chaos that was engineered and built into the cake now by the actions of the mother wefers. So there will be contention with all of the invaders. They're here. We've got to deal with them. There won't be an easy resolution.

They're not going to become nice and peaceful USA or european citizens. Their intent is to invade and take over and cause problems. So this will occur, that's going to further cause degradations within the economic system because you can't have activity as normal when you're in the process of being invaded and fighting off an invading force.

This is going to be the rest of this year. We'll be going through this. The economic aspect of it, the actual production of goods and services and all of that kind of stuff is going to take a hit as well. This will also affect the underpinnings of the ability to satisfy debt in the fiat currencies, because that's all they are. They're just a mechanism for dealing with debt.

They're not really money per se. They're a debt that you take on when you use their currencies. So this will continue to degrade and will even accelerate as we go through the year. So it might be very feasible that we have a solid floor in bitcoin, around $100,000 by the time we get to Christmas. Thus we'll meet the conditions for the $100,000 bitcoin parties during a Christmas season that were in the altar reports, and it would make sense.

So we'll go up to 120, and then we'll crash back down. It won't be a crash, it'll be a reduction, a consolidation, whatever you want to call it. Go back down to in the upper ninety s and then fight our way over 100,000 by Christmas as a solid floor. Okay? And so this is the action within fiat currency worlds relative to the fiat currency is the sudden rise, the boom, then the retraction, the pullback, and then consolidation and flooring, and then another rise.

Now the expectation is just doing projections off of charts and stuff. So I don't have any data, but these chartists, I'm just looking at their stuff, and the projection is that in 2025 we'll see bitcoin over a million dollars each. And this will be truly the end of the petrodollar as we get into those kind of numbers. It just won't be worth even messing with as a debt settling instrument. So bitcoin will be, BTC will be hugely impacted over these next two years, and it will carry along with it a number of related currencies.

And this will include all of the BTC clones, but also it'll bring in Ethereum and litecoin Monero. Monero is going to have a really big future here, especially in these next couple of years, as the status go fucking batshit and try and control everything. And so Monero will be used as a relatively non traceable settlement vehicle. It'll have a lot of demand. Beyond that, there are going to be other alt cryptos that survive for various different reasons, but at this point, it's sort of a crapshoot betting on any individual technology, unless you've really gone into those technologies and really examine them and understand where the utility is and why they will survive this period of time.

The period of time we're coming into is going to force everybody back to solid money, to realistic valuations on stuff. As the petrodollar dies and then all of the other fiat currencies that are attached to it, they're all dying now, right? So we're seeing that now, bitcoin is making all time highs in number of different languages, currencies, including in Japanese, right? So japanese currency is very stable, usually. And for it to be making these kind of big new all time highs in bitcoin, for bitcoin in yen, is really a very telling issue.

So we're just here now. And so there's going to be, this is the wealth transfer period where those people that were hodlers and got into the idea of digital scarcity and settlement vehicles versus hard currency and so on, are going to benefit for that attention to the currency and all things economic, and they're going to benefit for their acumen and for their courage in acting against the general trend and herd. Right? So bitcoin people, very likely the Hodlers, none of those people took the shot because it's the same kind of. Maybe some of the money manager kind of guys did, but mostly the individual bitcoiners.

I bet you they didn't take any of the clot shots, because it's the same kind of process that allows you to be courageous and make a move early and ahead and against the existing trends that will propel you into this intergenerational wealth stuff. Right? Same thing with silver, buying silver way the hell back when, when it was $8 an ounce for junk silver means you were that precious, that much ahead. And so those are the people that are being rewarded now by the activity within, the degradation of the fiat currency and the wealth transfer aspect of it. Remember, wealth does not go away.

It doesn't disappear unless you bury it in the ground and die, and thus, no one knows it's there. So that's really the only way that this kind of stuff goes away. You'll always lose a little bit here and there, but in general, wealth sticks around. It just transfers from one form to another as you go through into the future here.

And we're in one of those transitional periods now. This is going to be relatively exciting for people. You'll have all kinds of people getting whipped up all time highs in dollars for bitcoin are always something that everybody gets excited about. Also, this time, it's going to be coincident with all kinds of crapola going on in the general dynamism of the populace. So we're just about to get into March.

We'll probably cross a couple of significant bitcoin thresholds here in March. Maybe we'll go up another 20 or so percent fairly rapidly in bitcoin and get up over the 75,000 mark. It's not resistance in that sense, in the chartist sense, but it is a key peg at 75,000 for a bitcoin because that was in data sets way back when, as a minor temporal marker, there's another very large temporal marker, which is 88,000. Right. And so bitcoin had this thing back in the day, way back when, when the data set said that it would rise up to $880, and then it would fall back, and then it would do this three times, and then it was never, ever going to go back down below 880.

We have that same kind of language for 88,000. Okay, so it'll go through 88,000, and then it will set a floor in the range of 88,000. Maybe it'll come down to 84,000 and then go back up to 88 and then come back down and then go back up. But it'll do the 88 business three times. Right.

So it'll go through 88,003 times, and then it's done with 88,000 series of ferns, and we won't be repeating that. So then it'll go on up to its 120,000. So maybe that'll be. Maybe we'll reach those kind of milestones post having. So sometime after the 19 April, maybe we'll get into those kind of numbers.

Bear in mind, it's not bitcoin that's becoming more valuable. Well, it is in a sense, because value is an emotional attachment to an idea like bitcoin or gold or silver or whatever. It's an emotional thing.

But after the having is when I suspect that we'll start going through some of these very key temporal markers relative to Fern, to bitcoin prices, and that those will also be commensurate with all of the activity that's ongoing through this period of time. So in March, we're going to have lots and lots and lots of violent activity, new stuff happening. This will include reactions within the currency and economic situation relative to.

So basically what's going to happen is that there will actually be reactions within the social order about the pricing and so forth in ferns of various different kinds of commodities. And these things will have shock.

They'll initiate shocks within the social order. So it's going to be a huge shock when silver breaks out of its value range that it's being constrained in. This will happen because of some breakdowns that will occur within the, quote exchange system, which is really a control mechanism. And so the bitcoin and its fern price, also, it's priced in kroner or whatever the hell, right? All these other currencies, it'll be making new highs in all these global currencies as we get to the point where that triggers things within the control mechanism and starts affecting the price of silver and to a lesser extent of gold.

So it might well be that by the time we get into 2025, we've got gold at maybe it's doubled in price, maybe it's in the $5,000 an ounce range. And at that point, silver should have busted out to where it's broken through 50 $8100 an ounce. So we have language now in the minimalist little bit of scraping I can do. So let me emphasize that I do not have the hundreds of millions of reads that I used to in my processing because of the situation, the costs and so on that are involved in that at this day and age, as well as the bandwidth, I just don't have that here.

I had one third of a t one line, so vast quantities of bandwidth at my old office before we moved. Now out here on the coast, I just have to deal with the best bandwidth you can get on a residential line. I had had a special line run into me from the phone company at a huge cost back in Olympia at our other address, I think it was done in when we do, maybe that was 2002. I did that. It was fantastically huge cost.

It cost like $1,600 to run that line. We had to drive it under the road and tunnel up 100 plus feet to get it into the house. But it was huge bandwidth. I mean, it's just incredible anyway, though, so I don't have that now. So all of my projections are based on a minimalist data set.

So the probability of errors is very high. And the probability that the errors are going to be wildly off is very high as well. So if I'm going to put an error on this, it should be ending up as pretty spectacular. Error 830, I can probably make it here. I have a bunch of stops, so I got to do all these little chores as well as these couple of meetings.

I'm going to try and squeeze in a little chore before I get into that first meeting, shorten some of the duration. We've got our sick dog and my wife is just not really health wise, just up to dealing with all kinds of stuff. So I want to try and get back as soon as I can anyway, though.

So I expect that we'll have kinetic activity in March. We'll have frenetic freak out kind of economic activity in April. We're going to have all kinds of information that comes out as a result of this. Simply because as the dollar degrades, there's less ability to pay people to keep their mouth shut is fundamentally what it amounts to. Right.

The whole system is breaking down because the dollar is breaking down, because the Federal Reserve note is breaking down to the point where it has no purchasing value and people have no confidence in it. So they're going to act differently, and they already are. We're seeing the effects of that all over.

So I personally think this is a very exciting time. I have some bitcoin, I have a few of those guys, so I'm interested in following along with it. However, my real problem is I'm feeling so soviet, right? I feel like I'm back in the USSR in my day in the. There was a joke that in the Soviet Union, you worked your ass off and you made good money, but there was nothing to.

So that was it. If you saw a line on a street corner near any kind of a store, you went and got in that line because it meant there was something in that store to buy and everybody had money because there was nothing to buy with the money. So it's just a weird situation. So for me, it's kind of like that. So I was lamenting the other day about how soviet I feel because I can't find a single story house, right?

I mean, I can find them that are six and 7 hours away, but that's just not feasible. We're just not going to be able to do that. It has to meet certain criteria anyway relative to, like wheelchair access and that sort of thing. And the number of bedrooms. If it's a single story house, no problem.

But in any event, so I can't find one. So I'm feeling very soviet, right? Like if I saw a big line in front of a real estate agency, I'd go and get there. But any event though. So here's the thing about real estate, because I got to wrap this up fairly quick.

Commercial real estate has collapsed. The amount of bad debt associated with commercial real estate, right, now that they know the debt is bad, that is that people are behind on payments on commercial real estate. They're not making their mortgage on time or barely making it on time, whereas before they would pay it early, that kind of thing. All of these indicators are showing that commercial real estate has just totally crapped out. Now, the extent of the commercial real estate that has already crapped out means that the entire banking system in the United States, as well as the banking system, most of the banking system in Europe cannot come up with reserves to cover the losses.

And this is not the complete collapse yet of the commercial real estate market, meaning that we're looking at a breakdown of commercial real estate at a level that has not ever been seen before in our modern society. And if we look at, and there is no analog for it in previous times, it's at that level. So just absolutely staggering, the complete, the complete involvement of this. So if we were to take basically all commercial real estate, then the amount of loss reserves the banks would have to have is about 18 times what they've got set aside, 18 times. So they've only got 118 of the loss reserves necessary to cover the commercial real estate market as it exists now in its totality.

But in fact, the whole system is reeling with it. Only one 18th broken down. Right.

Like I was saying, I know guys that like myself, for whatever reason, they were hunting for older guys that are hunting for houses and trying to move and this sort of thing, mostly people with cryptos. So they feel they've got the financial freedom to do this at this time, and they're looking at commercial real estate because there's not much in the way of residential real estate being sold or offered even, because even if you wanted to sell your house, there's no house for you to buy. And the minute you sell your house and convert that house into dollars, the dollars start depreciating, like, right the fuck away. And so you're running up against a decreasing amount of value that you've converted your house out of, and then you're trying to get that money converted back into a new house, and they're just not available or whatever. Also, a lot of them still have high prices, expecting to be able to recover some of the amount of debt in there.

So a lot of the houses have very high prices on them because the level of debt that has to be satisfied in the sale. So I know some houses now where they, I don't know if people are going to try and flip them or what the deal is. That whole, quote, industry is really tanked. But I know a couple of houses where the owners are basically wrestling to see if they're going to accept offers that are below assessed value. So this is that point of time where we reconvert wealth and taxes and so on.

So all these counties are freaking out because houses aren't selling. They get some money in the process of the house sale, but also it sets a new base for them relative to land taxes. And those are dropping because the sales price is less than the county's already assessed value. They can't have that legally. They have to adjust it downward to the actual sales price.

And this is the same mechanism that destroyed the land tax base for the counties, especially out in the know anything west of the Ohio river valley, but also, but throughout the entire country was seriously affected in the Great Depression. And the mechanism was that the land prices were, sales were at such a low level and that affected the tax base.

Counties don't like it. There's nothing they can do about it. But this is the state of affairs at the moment. So real estate is not necessarily going to be a good investment, especially for short term kind of stuff. So I just want a new house.

I'm not looking at an investment. I just want to get away from all of the noise and the crap of adding this and rebuilding the house I'm in. I really have to. The contractor really fucked me over there and the things he did. And I've got some serious issues with that house that I'm wrestling with.

So I just want to get another house to go and live in while all this is going on. I'm not after any kind of long term gain and stuff. If I were I would still be looking into commercial real estate, because this stuff is so hugely undervalued. And you're finding if you look, you can find places where the value of the property to you is such that if you make an offer that can be used as leverage with the banks to get people out from under the debt, they will do so. So I know of one place where an old restaurant was sold for a guy, to a guy, and he's converting it into a house.

And when he bought that, it had been on the market for, jeez, maybe twelve years or something like that, and he picked it up and offered some small fraction, let's just say that he offered like one fifth or something of the notional value at the time that it was listed.

So that was not enough to satisfy the debt on this property that just sat there. But the bank, it had been in arrears for a number of years. The guy making some level of payments, just enough to keep it going. And the guy went with the offer back to the bank and said, what can we do? And they said, okay, we'll go with you on this amount.

We'll forgive this amount of the debt if you accept this offer and you pay off this other amount of the debt. And so they worked it out. And so basically the bank took a big hit on it. And this guy took a big hit on it. And my friend bought this place, which he's now putting money into, in order to turn it into a house from a restaurant.

And in some places, that's what we're going to have to do.

Trying to see where I've got. Okay, there we are.

Anyway, so that's the state of affairs here. I'm still sort of looking for a house. I'm in the process of getting the next phase of my addition going here. So we're going to have the engineering and the plans. I'll submit those.

I don't really give a rat's ass about the county's opinion of stuff, but I'm going to do it just to be legal. If they slow me down, then we'll go into an illegal state where I'll just say, yeah, piss on it, I don't give a shit. We're doing it. But in any event. So the next thing is to get the heat pump moved.

Well, the next thing is to get some more lumber or logs out of the place and a couple of large stumps removed, and then to get the heat pump moved and the foundation started. Now, the good news for me at a personal level is that there's a lot of crews available, starting to become available because work is drying up. Not that many people are out here building houses and stuff. So those new housing starts are way down all over, which means that there's more crews for remodels and things. Not a good thing economically, but at least I'll be able to keep a couple of people employed with their crews here as we go forward for at least a brief bit of time.

So they'll get some money this year. That's just the situation that we've got. Anyway, like I say, bitcoin is probably going to retreat after it gets up to about 118 to 120,000 something in there. And then that retracement will be the floor. So it goes from 120 down to upper 90s, is my thinking.

And then after that, that's the floor for it. And we go back up into the over 100,000 by Christmas of this year. And that's our floor for 2025. And then we rush on in to the millions as the fiat currency totally breaks down. Okay, so a little early, but I'll get it in.

Let's see if I can get in early on this. All right, guys, so I'll do a other one of these on the way out. There's so much to talk about. Yes. So, anyway, have fun.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

Bold is a radical, how-to guide for using exponential technologies, moonshot thinking, and crowd-powered tools to create extraordinary wealth while also positively impacting the lives of billions.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity. That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com. This report covers your future world from July 2016 through to 2031.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

4th Turning

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

Graham Hancock Talks With Mauro Biglino - Gods Of The Bible - 2023-04-06

Are there other traces in the Bible of objects that might reasonably be interpreted as technology? We have the ark, we have the shamir, we have the kavod, we have a ruach. That's the rising up? Yes, the flying. Yes, the ruach.

So some sort of suggestion of a flying machine? Yes, flying machine. Do that. Those are described clearly as flying machine. Of course, in the Bible.

In the Bible. Give me an example. For example, in the Book of Ezekiel, in the Book of Exodus, is clearly described the cupboard of Yahweh, that when Moses called to Yahweh, the possibility to see this coward, and Yahweh says to him, you cannot stay in front of Kavod, because if you are in front of Kavod, you die.

That is important. Yahweh cannot do nothing. So God is not potent in front of the dangerousity of the. And that is very interesting. Yahweh tells to Moses, you can hide you after these rocks.

So the rocks can do what God cannot do, right?

Yes, very much so.

Maro, a pleasure to meet you. I've heard a lot about your work. It's a pleasure for me, and I thank you for having me here in your home. It's an honor. You're welcome.

Very nice to meet you. Now, fundamentally, the issue at stake is translation, the translation of the Bible. So let's establish some things clearly when we talk about the Bible. We're talking about the Old Testament. When we talk about the Bible, normally we talk about the Old Testament also the name.

May I interrupt there just to clarify? Is the Old Testament identical in contents to the Torah? We have many versions of the Old Testament. We have the Old Testament in the masoretic version, that is the official version, we have the older testament of the Samaritans, who contains 300 differences from the Old Testament of the Masoretic. We have the Old Testament in the Dead Sea Scrolls, that have, for example, only in the book of Isaiah 250 differences.

Okay, so we have many Old Testament, right? But they. The theologians says that the Old Testament. True. Is that in the version of masoretic.

Okay, explain Masoretic to me. Masoretic is a family named also school of Tiberiade, that worked on the version of the Old Testament between 16 and 19 century after Christ. And they added the vowels because the Old Testament was written only by consonant, so the people could read it, could insert whichever they wish to. Exactly. So this masoretic school fixed the vowels to fix the possibility of reading the Old Testament.

And I translated this not because I think it is the best or the unique of the truth. But because the theologians say is the truth, this is the definitive. The definitives. First of all, with our friends, I apologize for my English, but I'm learning it since few months. And so I hope to make you understand.

You're certainly making me understand. So I still want to come to this point that the original book is the Torah. Yes. And that's the name of the Hebrew Bible. Yes.

If I take the masoretic translation of the Torah, it's identical in content. They contain the same books, not in all the translations. Right? There are many different. The differences and often are also important.

When we are in front of this book, we have only be careful to the contest. To the contest. Because the translation of a unique term is always uncertain. Is uncertain. Also, if all the scholars of the world say that this is the translation is not certain, right.

They're using their authority. Okay? They use their authority because often they are dogmatic, of course. And so we have to use the context to understand the real meaning of single terms like the verb bara, who is present in the first verse of the Bible. In the Genesis.

Bereshit barai loim Ashamai Maret Aratz saw the term shadai. That doesn't mean Almighty, but it means lord of the mountains, lord of the step. But in the Bible, you find always the translation Almighty. But they know is not Almighty. Because, for example, in the Bible of Jerusalem, in the notes they write that the translation Almighty is a mistake.

Right? But since in the Bible must be God, God must be Almighty. So they insert Almighty. Also, they know that Shaddai doesn't mean Almighty. So.

But to be clear, in the original Hebrew, if somebody is a hebrew speaker and understand Hebrew, clearly, they will not read. Yes. They will not read the word almighty. No, exactly. They understand the real meaning.

So the problem is with the translation out of Hebrew into other languages. Exactly. Okay. Exactly. What is your special qualification to translate and to comment on biblical text?

I studied Hebrew with the hebrew community of Turin. After I started to translate. What led you to start learning Hebrew? For my interest. For my personal passion.

My personal passion, as you. I wanted to understand, really, because I know Latin, Greek, ancient Hebrew. And so I wanted to know what is really written in this so called holy book. Yes. And after I started to translate for me, the publishing house Sao Paulo, that is the main important publishing, catholic publishing house of the Vatican, saw my translation.

And after they asked me to translate for them. I see. And I translate 70 books of the Old Testament. They published them exactly as I translated. You were translating into Italian or into which language?

Into Italian. Into Italian, yeah. But when I was translated for them, for example, the term eloim was not translated, remained eloim. I see. Because in the word, nobody knows the really meaning of the term Eloim.

So it's better not translate it, but to leave it as it. As it is. Exactly. Which is. So that's a transliteration that we're looking at.

In my contract, they wrote that I must make a literary translation. So terms as Shadai Eloim were not translated, they were left as they were. Interesting. So it's true to say then, that you're an official Bible translator for the Vatican? Yes.

For the publishing Sao Paulo. For the Vatican, yes. And how is the relationship between you and the Vatican? When I started to explain to the public the really meanings and when in 2010, I started to write my first book about the literary translation of the Bible, I was fired in 1 minute. 1 minute, yeah.

It's very explosive subject. All finished. Right. So you had a temporary connection with the Vatican. Yes.

And that resulted in the translation of 70 books. Yes. After they published this 70 book with my name, and they're still in print, they now changed my name. They made, I don't know, a revision of this book. So to can insert another name and cancel my name.

And when the relationship finished, they started again to translate Elohim with God. But when I was working for them, Elohim was not translated. So do you think this is the essence of the problem then, between you and the Vatican is the. Oh, yes. Great problem.

But in 2016, I organized a meeting with four of the main theologians in Italy, one Catholic, all academics, an archibi of Orthodox Church, rabbi, chief of Hebrew community, and the most important biblical translator, Protestant. We met in front of 600 people.

They must say in front of these people that in the Bible there is no the concept of creation by nothing. There is not the concept of transcendence, there is not the concept of spirituality, there is not the concept of Almighty. And so I was here and I thought in my mind, but they are saying what I say normally. Yeah. Let's dig deeper into this question of El and Elohim and Yahweh or y h vh.

Yes. If I understand y h vh, it's supposed to mean I am that I am or I am what I am. Is that incorrect? No, it's not correct, because nobody knows the real meaning of the tetragrammaton. Yes.

Because when it was pronounced, the Hebrew language did not exist. Right. So nobody knows in what language was. Let me pause you there. You're saying the Hebrew language did not exist and when it was pronounced, are we talking about to Moses for sample?

Yes. And of course, nobody can absolutely confirm that Moses was a real historical figure at all. But if he was, then they would put the date at maybe 1200 bc. 1200. Or in opinion of other scholars, 505th century BC.

BC. So much later. So there's some disargument about, but nobody is sure about this. But when did the Hebrew language come into existence?

In that moment, Aramaic was the international language language as the English now. Yeah, but we don't know. Pardon? We don't know in what language the so called Yahweh speaked. But, for example, we must know that the vowels of Yahweh were put 2000.

2000 year after their first pronunciation. So nobody knows real sound of this name. If we accept the early dates for Moses, 1200 bc. Yes. You're saying that the language that Moses spoke could not have been Hebrew?

No, the language could have been ancient Egyptian. Yes. Perfect. Yeah. Could have been ancient Egyptian.

Egyptian. Is it controversial to say that the Hebrew language did not exist in 1200 bc? In that time, started to exist a form of language which is defined a previous Hebrew. Old Hebrew. Old Hebrew.

But it's not Hebrew because the Hebrew really started to exist as a dialect of western Semitic only in the 10th century before Christ. Right. So this entity called y, h, vh or Yahweh. We don't know what language he spoke to Moses in? No, no, we don't know.

But since Moses was reared in the household of the pharaoh, it's most likely to be in the ancient egyptian language. Yes. Does that make sense? Yes. So later on, much later on, it is imposed into another language which is Hebrew.

Yes. And they don't use vowels at that time, is that right? So Y-H-V-H are all consonants and we don't know what the vowels are? No, we don't know. We don't know.

The vowels started to be written between the 6th and the 9th century before. After Christ. After Christ. After Christ. Right.

So that's when. Sorry for English. Okay, no problem. So this is an interpretation in the hebrew text that is put upon those consonants, yhva, and generally it's interpreted as God. Now, what about El and Elohim?

And how do they relate to Yahweh or yhvh? L could be. Could be, but it's not sure. Could be the singular of Loem, but it's not sure. L and Loem could be two terms independent and the singular of Loim could be loa that correspond to Allah in the Semitic.

Oriental, eastern semitic. I'm thinking of places in Israel like Bethlehem means the house of God, house of El, which is often translated as the house of God. But you're saying that there's no legitimacy to that translation. No, absolutely.

Okay, but I sure of that. Not because I know the real translation of the term l or eloim, but because nobody knows the translation. 1st, 2nd, if we read what is really written in the Bible, all people understand that El and Eloim. And Eloah doesn't mean God, right? Can't mean.

God, right? Can't mean. And would any modern day Hebrew speaker and Hebrew expert agree with you on do they? My manager. So where do they get?

Is studying Hebrew with University of Jerusalem. And they hear from her teachers translations that are similar to mine. Right.

And yet modern Judaism defines itself as a monotheistic faith which believes in one God. So where is that God? In the Hebrew Bible, there are many Judaism, but there are many christianities too. But they all share the view that they're monotheistic religions, as indeed is Islam. They would define themselves as monotheists.

Yes, but there are many important executives. Hebrew that tells that writes clearly that l, eloim, Eloah, Yahweh doesn't refer to the same person.

Okay, tell me, what are the implications of that? What does that lead us to? What are your conclusions from that? That Eloim was superior civilizations that divided the various population in Kindles. Right.

The populations of the whole earth, or of just the Middle east? Of the whole earth. And Yahweh was in charge of the population named the sons of Israel. That is Jacob, not the leader of all Hebrews, but only of the family of Jacob. Right.

The other family of Hebrew, like Moabites, ammonites, Edomites, et cetera, was assigned to other elohims that the Bible names clearly. Kamosh, Milcom, Dagon, Asherah. And in many Dagon and Asherah I recognize as canaanite or so called philistine deities. But they are Present in the Bible. They are referenced in the Bible.

We hear that the Ark of the Covenant destroys Dagon in the city of Ashdod. They're present in the Bible for sure. But what are they defined as? What are they? Eloim.

Yeah, always Eloim. But the theologians say that those Eloim were not existent, were only idols or idols. I understand Dagon and Asherah being referred to as idols, but the word eloim is also, according to you, wrongly translated as the one God. Yes. It is a wrong translation.

So Eloim refers to a multiplicity of. Yes, to a multiplicity of gods. By short, yes, absolutely. I wanted to reduce the number of the eloim present in the Bible. I reached the number of 23, right?

23, yes, but I reduced the number of the Eloima present in the Bible. Right. So there are no doubts. How did you reduce it?

Reading and translating the Bible, which is name, which reading also the writings of the peoples that fighting with the people of Israel. But those peoples are of the same family of Abraham. And there they, in their scripts, named clearly the name of their eloims. And the name of their eloims is present in the Bible. For example, in the Bible of the judges is named Kamosh as the God of Moabites, or Moabites.

There is a stone of Moabites in which is written that they fought with Israelites and they win. And they win against the people of Yahweh. And they were ruled by their eloim. So you're seeing these eloim as some sort of. You're not jumping to conclusions about what they are, but you're saying they're not gods, they are of an iger civilization.

Yes. That could survive the great fluid. Okay, we'll come to that. So let's go with this idea that peoples from another civilization are advising or organizing peoples around the world. So we have Israel.

We have the peoples of Israel. We're told that they're brought out of Egypt by Moses. Does Moses receive a divine instruction or any instruction to take the people out of Egypt? And if so, who gives that instruction? Yes, but in fact, Moses told to that Eloim, who are you?

Yes, because he wanted to be sure with which he was speaking. Okay. Because he done news. I suppose the most controversial thing that you're saying, really, is that God, as we are taught to understand God. I don't know.

Personally speaking, I'm not a Christian. I don't belong to any of the mainstream religions. I don't have strong religious views. I have had experiences that I would describe as spiritual, but I'm not a Christian. But I have an idea of what christians think God is.

And what Christians think God is, is a man, often with a beard, who is the father of Jesus Christ somehow, and is alone. He's one God. One God. And if I understand you correctly, you're saying there's no basis for that in the Bible. In the Bible there is no basis.

And that's the Old Testament of the Bible. Old Testament, absolutely. There is no basis for this construction of the image of the God like a person. When do you think that image began to be constructed in the Bible? In the Bible?

At the time of the exile. At the time of the exile. In Babylonia. In Babylonia, right. In Babylonia, right.

Because before they weren't conscious of the existence of many elohims. Yes, clearly in the Bible. Yeah. What I wonder is if this Elohim idea is correct and that we have an organizational force which is organizing different cultures around the world. What was going on between the ancient Egyptians and the early Hebrews at that time?

I mean, Moses leads the children of Israel out of Egypt, we're told in the Bible. But Egypt seemed to carry on in its own way afterwards for at least another thousand years. Did they have an Eloim or looking after them?

What about Mesopotamia? The Eloim, they don't call them Eloim, of course, because was another language. But I think they were the same in Hebrew. Was Eloim. In Mesopotamia was Elu or Ilano.

In Egypt was other name. But the same function. Yeah, but the same function, the same characteristics.

So to cut a long story short, do you interpret these entities as human beings or you interpret them as human beings? So this is where there's a crossover with my work and your work, in the sense that I have advocated the possibility of a lost civilization of some sort which originated during the ice age and which was destroyed in the global cataclysms that brought the ice age to an end. Now, it has for a long time seemed to me that the wisdom and knowledge of that civilization was not lost completely, but it was preserved. That there may have been specific groups of people who were charged with carrying that knowledge down into the world. So I can see the crossover with, it's absolutely possible that eloim.

Were those human beings with special knowledge. Yes. Of iger technology. Now, the thing is that we have a very long gap if we agree on the flood, which is another question I want to ask you. The biblical flood is, of course the best known flood myth in the world.

Everybody knows about the flood of Noah, whatever their religion is today. Everybody knows about the flood of Noah. But not everybody is aware that there are maybe 1000 other stories that tell of a global flood and cataclysm that afflicted the earth and that caused great destruction and changed things completely. And I've long been of the view that the most likely period for that cataclysm is the end of the ice age. It's a time of tremendous global changes.

And it's a particular period called the Younger Dryas. Yes. And it runs roughly for 1200 years, from 12,800 years ago to 11,600 years ago. 11,600 years ago, we get a final massive pulse of meltwater which raises sea levels very rapidly. It's one of the reasons why I'm interested in the story of Atlantis, actually, because that is the date 11,600 years before our time, 9000 years before the time of Solon is the date that Plato gives for the submergence of Atlantis.

I know. So if these calculations are correct and we're looking at a global cataclysm that had its final massive spasm of disaster 11,600 years ago, that's a long gap to the time of the Hebrews and the exodus from Egypt, which is 1200 bc, 3200 years ago. So we have about 8000 years gap now. One of the things that my critics find hardest to accept is the idea that a wisdom tradition, that specific knowledge, perhaps even specific technologies originating with a lost civilization could have been preserved for 8000 years. Preserved?

It's absolutely possible. So talk to me about why it's possible. Yes, because also in the egyptian culture I read that the priest, Phoenician Sankunyaton, who wrote and Elzebio of Cesarea report his words and he said that the priest of ancient Egypt uncovered under the myths a true history of an ancient civilization. Well, in Egypt we have entities like this one here and this one here. These are not Horus and Anubis.

These are the souls of Pei and Necken. And they are also related to another group called the followers of Horus. And their purpose? Specific purpose, as described in the ancient egyptian text, was to transmit knowledge from the past into the future. That they're a kind of secret brotherhood.

They could also be a secret sisterhood because the ancient Egyptians were very admiring of powerful women as well. They were a secret society, if you like. I prefer not to say a brotherhood, a secret society which passed down knowledge from the past into the present.

The most difficult thing to believe is that such a secret society could survive for 8000 years. Often when I'm criticized about that, I point out that there are ideas that do last for thousands of years and that do continue and that are repeated. Even the idea of the flood is an idea that has lasted for thousands of years. But what's your feeling about the dating of this? Do you accept the notion of a flood more than 11,000 years ago?

Or would you prefer it more. Is there anything in the Bible 11,000 years ago? It's fascinating that where the Bible says that the ark of Noah ends up is Mount Ararat, which is now in Turkey. Yes. Although it's actually visible from Armenia.

You can see the Mount Ararat more clearly from Armenia, but it's now in Turkey. Now, the interesting thing is, there's no question whatsoever, from a factual point of view, that whatever floods took place at that time, at the end of the ice age, none of them reached the slopes of Mount Ararat. They did not. Mount Ararat was never submerged 11,000 years ago or 100,000 years ago. It was not submerged.

But the idea that survivors of a flood would seek refuge in high places, that makes sense to me. Yes. Because also Nicola Damasheno write in his books that when Noah arrived on top of this mountain, he found here other people. Interesting. Found other people.

And these people were afraid to descend. Right. And Noah, with her sons, convinced them to descend. Right. But this is not in the Bible.

This is in some other text. This is in the text of Nicola of Damascus, first century before Christ. Right. So it's an exegesis on the. So how interesting.

So he found people there already, which is what I would expect. I mean, the reason that Mount Ararat is of interest to me is because of its relative proximity to these sites now being discovered in Turkey. Gobekli Tepe is also 11,600 years.

Tepe is another proof of an Igar civilization. I believe it is, yes. I think we're looking at evidence for that. But what's fascinating is the thought that the. And this is what archaeologists most oppose, is that the thought that knowledge could be preserved within select groups and passed down to the future.

For that to happen for 8000 years is something that many skeptics find very difficult to accept. Yes. I think that history must be rewritten. Rewritten? Absolutely.

Because there are too many things that the history is not able to explain. Absolutely.

Let's consider technology. As you know. Well, my background was in journalism, and journalism took me to Ethiopia. And in Ethiopia I heard that Ethiopia claims to possess the lost ark of the Covenant. I became very interested in the ark of the Covenant.

Fascinating object, the way that it's described in the Book of Exodus, the blueprint for the construction of the ark, the things that the ark then does subsequently, during the conquest of the promised land. Sounds like a weapon of some kind. It's very hard to interpret it in any other way. What do you think the Ark of the Covenant was? But I think what is written in the Bible.

Can be true? Yeah, because the ark is defined as an object that produces. It contained some form of energy. And was also an instrument for the communication between Moses or the people of Israel. With his Elohim named Yahweh, if I may say, mistranslated in the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark.

As a radio for talking to God. Talking to God, not talking to Yahweh, talking to Yahweh. Whatever he was. Whatever he was. Whatever he was.

I think this is clear in the Bible. There is no doubt, of course, we can think that the Bible is not true. But I prefer to pretend that the Bible is a true history. Like all history books all around the world. That contains always the truth.

But not only also the books of history written today, also the books written about the second war, et cetera. So it's the same. It's the same mystery, indeed. So I'd like you to talk a little more about the technological aspects of the Ark of the Covenant. But also, can you think of other objects in the Bible.

Which maybe deserve a technological interpretation rather than a spiritual interpretation? There is another object named Kabod. Kabod is always translated as glory of Yahweh. Right. But in Book of Ezekiel, there is some clear translations.

That can allow us to think that it was a technological tool. In one italian translation, Sao Paulo editions, is written that Ezekiel ear the sound produced by Kabod, which was under. On the back of him when this cavod were arising from the earth. And this translated in this way. In the Sao Paulo Bible, the exact translation of the hebrew term that is not Baruch, but is what happened to Cavod.

Cavod, no, Barun is the term that indicates the fact that Kavod was rising from the earth. So it was rising up, producing a great noise that Ezekiel heard. But this noise was behind him. Is it also the Kavod that burns the face of Moses? Yes, it's the same.

So it produces sound, and it burns the same as the sun. It sounds very. It does sound very technological. Yes. What do you make of the Tower of Babel?

Oh, is a topic very interesting. Because the narration of the Tower of Babel is very strange. Because that people wanted to reach the sky. So Yahweh wanted intervention to destroy. And after the Bible says that Yahweh divided languages.

But if you read carefully previous chapters of the Bible, you read that the languages were before divided. I see. Yeah. Each people has his own language. So when Yahweh destroyed this tower, divided this alliance distributing these people between the others.

So he don't create any languages because the diverse languages were already existent. Is clearly written in the Bible. Clearly. And yet not made available to us who don't speak Hebrew. Yes.

Because the translation distorts the information. Yes. Because the Hebrew Bible is rewritten or first, some parts of written after the exile of Babylonia. Right.

We cannot be sure. And after all, the new writers written what they wanted to tell to people. Right. And they created monotheism. Okay, in summary, in your view, monotheism is not a natural outcome of the Bible.

It's a deliberate man made strategy. In the Bible there was a monolatry. Monolatry? Monolatry, worshipping one idol. They were with servant, one of many eloims.

Right. Like as other peoples, every people as one or many. Let's consider these Eloim, these Elohim, the notion of a secret society which controls advanced knowledge and has ideas about how human beings should be organized. So we're saying that they were present in the time of Moses. They were present in many other cultures at that time as well.

Are they still with us today? Oh, it's absolutely possible. I agree. Absolutely. Because we are not sure of what they were.

And the Elohim, I know, for example, protestant pastor Barry Downing, who write in his books that eloims are here and are ruling all around the world. Like a secret government. Exactly. And he is a protestant pastor who has a personal faith in God. But he tells that Elohims were not God.

Absolutely. Okay, they were not God. Were they good or were they evil? Were there, like humans, both good and evil? The deficient depends on the position, because define a devil the adversary.

Define devil the adversary, always. There's a controversial view of the encounters with entities in the Bible I know quite well, although I've not seen him for some years. Professor Benny Shannon from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Benny Shannon is one of the world experts on the visionary brew of the Amazon called ayahuasca. Okay.

Benny has drunk ayahuasca 400, maybe 500 times. I've worked with ayahuasca too. My total is more like 70 or 75, not 500. But in Benny's view, he puts it forward as a hypothesis. We see Moses at the burning bush and he says, do we normally see a burning bush in daily life?

No, we don't. Especially if it speaks to us. We can see a burning bush, but a burning bush that speaks to us is unusual. And he points out that in Ayahuasca visionary states, we often meet trees that speak to us and other entities that speak to us, and sometimes they may even be in flames. And he proposed that in that part of the Middle east, there is syrian rue and mimosa hostilis, which both together contain the same molecules as ayahuasca.

So the bottom line is that Beni Shanon was suggesting that Moses was on ayahuasca, or it's possible that he was having a visionary experience, that many of these. And it's very important to be clear when we talk about visionary experiences, that we are not saying those experiences are not real. We're not saying that visionary experiences can be real in every meaningful sense of the word, but we're saying that they're harder to fit in to the western way of looking at things. I'm just wondering what your view of this is. There's a case to be made that almost all religions arose out of visionary experiences first, that people had visions of entities and encounters.

Of course it's possible. But I wanted to tell you another thing. The term Hebrew, translated with bush, is present also in other part of the Bible, and it means Rocky Mountain. And so it's possible that Moses saw a fire over a rocky mountain. So it's another case of mistranslation.

Exactly. A rocky mountain, as in effect, in reality in other parts of the Bible, is the name of a rocky mountain. So we can think that there was not a bush with a fire, but this fire was on a rocky mountain where there was the cupboard of Yahweh, this glowing burning.

So since we know that in that region where many archaeologists found, for example, the twelve stones cited in the Bible, et cetera, in that stones there is only some substance like petrol. Right? So when the cabood of Yahweh is posing on the earth, could provoke fire, could create fire. So we are not sure if this term means bush or rocky Mountain. Okay?

We are not sure. So we're very happy. My system is always to have open mind to all possible solutions. I think that's a good system, especially when we're dealing with a document that's quite difficult to understand and is very difficult to understand and has been through already multiple changes of language. Okay.

Which causes further. We cannot be always sure. Absolutely. We must not be dogmatic. Absolutely, we must not be dogmatic.

And yet it is a book which has promoted a great deal of dogma. Oh, yes. And been responsible for many of the problems in the world. And the last, certainly in the last 2000 years, because in my translation I'm using several dictionaries, theological and not theological, dictionaries of Hebrew language. And so I think that it's necessary to be open to all possible solutions.

I agree. But we must know that there are several possible solutions, not only one. Absolutely. Agreed. Yeah.

Tell me what your view of the book of revelation is. Oh, I think book of revelation, I think, is a book written in a sort of codex for the church, the many church that were arising in the time, so to not speak to the powerful of the time, like roman emperor, et cetera. And I think it's a book written in Codex. Do you think it's for that times? What about the prediction of the end of the world?

But I tend not to believe prophecies. I think you're very wise, because, for example, all the prophecies written in the Bible, all the prophecies were written after what was just happened. After always after, rather than before, always. So they're the opposite of prophecies there. Okay.

So what we were saying was that the Elohim are clearly human beings of some sort. Yes. Is that too rapid a conclusion? Could they be something other than human beings? You keep an open mind on everything.

Do you keep an open mind on that? We can try it. Okay. But do you prefer your conclusion is we're talking about human beings when we talk about the same as you want, because I'm interested in their vices. Human beings have vices.

Did the Elohim have vices? But Yahweh wanted to have every day from two to five liters, because I don't know how many gallons of shakar that was an alcoholic. Where is this stated? Is this stated in the Bible? In the.

Stated in the Bible? In the Torah. Okay. In the Torah. And he wanted also every day, the smoke of the meat burnt, because, for example, in the book of the number, chapter 28, this smoke that he wanted to smell was able to calm him.

Yes, absolutely. I remember that passage. Absolutely. So it's possible that in this smoke, in effect, I talked about biologists, there are some molecules that are similar to the molecule of the endorphine. I don't know how to say.

Endorphins. Yeah. Endorphin that our brain producing, produces when we are in a state of.

And in the book of number, Yahweh tells several times that this smoke comes. You. Yes. He says, these smokes call me, because these smoke call me. Right.

Several times. Yeah. So it's clear. And you wouldn't expect the one God, the creator of the universe, to need to be calmed by Smoke. No interest, but it's clear.

It's not my translation. No, absolutely. Yeah. So that sounds. It's the normal translation.

It sounds more like a human being and needs and wishes and weaknesses of a human being. Okay, so does the Bible tell us, give us any hint as to where these entities, these Elohim, this Yahweh, where they come from? No, the Bible don't says where they come from, and so I don't do suggestions in that. But in psalm 24 is written that Yahweh, with his cabood were passing through a gate that opened after an order and opened le olam I e on unknown place. So is the most important passage of the Bible, psalm 24.

And this psalm 24 was used also by Monsignor Corado Balducci, Vatican, who said. Because now he's dead. Who said that the two first verses of this psalm contains the proof that the Bible knew the existence of the inhabitants of the earth and the inhabitants of the universe, that they were different. And the last verses of that psalm talks about this passage through the gates. And in the English Bibles, the terms in Hebrew, petahim and sherim, are translated by hebrew translators.

Gates. Gates. So we may only speculate. Yes, but I stop at the literal translation of the Bible. Yes, because after this translation, we have to become with speculation.

Indeed so. But I prefer for now to remain to the literary translation of the Hebrew Bible. Hebrew Masoretic Bible. Yeah, I think you're right to do that. It's always interesting to speculate, but what you're doing is you're providing people with new facts that allows us to think more clearly about this important text.

We've spoken of the Ark of the Covenant as a technological object. You've spoken of the kavod. I'm recollecting a thing called the Shamir, sometimes described as. There is also. The Shamir sounds also technological.

Can you talk a little bit about that? Yes. The Shamir is an object very difficult to explain because it's quoted only one or two times in the Bible. But it must be something really, something technological. But I want to work of fantasy, and so I prefer be silent.

You don't want fantasy, but I get that. But are there other traces in the Bible of objects that might reasonably be interpreted as technology? We have the ark. We have the Shamir. We have the kavod.

We have a ruach. That's the rising up. The flying. Yes, the ruach. So some sort of suggestion of a flying machine?

Yes, flying machine.

Those are described clearly as flying machine. Of course, I. In the Bible. In the Bible. Give me an example, for example, in the Book of Ezekiel, in the Book of Exodus, in the Book of Exodus is clearly described the cupboard of Yahweh, that when Moses called to Yahweh, the possibility to see this kabod, and Yahweh says to him, you cannot stay in front of Kavod, because if you are in front of Kavod, you.

So that is important. Yahweh cannot do nothing. Right. So God is not potent in front of the dangerousity of the. And that is very interesting.

Yahweh tells to Moses, you can hide you after these rocks, so the rocks can do what God cannot do. Right. Impressive point. Yes, impressive. Very much so, yeah.

When you was a journalist of the Economist. Yes. You encountered. I encountered the Ark of the covenant. Yes.

I was the East Africa correspondent for the Economist. So I was based in Nairobi, in Kenya, and a number of neighboring countries were countries that I reported on regularly. And one of those countries was Ethiopia. And in Ethiopia, by chance, very shortly after, I had watched the movie raiders of the lost ark with Harrison Ford, very soon after I had watched that, I was on a research trip in Ethiopia, and it came to my attention that the Ethiopians claim to possess this object. Well, obviously I was interested.

This fascinating, powerful, mysterious object, and it's hidden in the mountains of Ethiopia. I had never heard that before, so I began to investigate that particular claim. Now, at that time, which was 1983, the early 1980s, I didn't have any particular interest in history or in prehistory or in archaeology. My interests were much more in current affairs. But I also had the sense that I think any journalist would have presented by this information that there was something going on here, because although archaeologists were rejecting Ethiopia's claim, they're saying there was nothing to it.

It was a complete fantasy. My own eyes showed me that it was central to ethiopian culture. It was fundamental to ethiopian culture, that there was a community of ethiopian Jews. They call themselves the better Israel, the House of Israel. They are known in Ethiopia as the Falashas, and they practice a very ancient form of know.

They only became acquainted with the Talmud as a result of missionary activity from Israel. They did not have the Talmud, but they did have the Torah. So they're a very old form of Judaism. They practiced sacrifice of rams, and this, I believe, is forbidden in Judaism since the destruction of the First Temple. Yes, they practiced sacrifice of rams, and they had a rich history that told how they had come to Ethiopia and how they had brought the Ark of the Covenant with them.

It's a different story from the story that the ethiopian national Epoch tells. The ethiopian national Epoch. Is called the Kebrin Agast, the glory of kings. And in that they claim that the queen of Sheba was an ethiopian queen. She made her famous biblical visit to the court of Solomon.

She was made pregnant by Solomon. According to the ethiopian version, she returned to Ethiopia. She bore the child. His name was Menelik, means the son of the wise man. And the story is that at the age of about 20 or 21.

He went back to Jerusalem. He was recognized by his father. And somehow, after one year in the court of Solomon. He contrived to steal the Ark of the Covenant. This is written in the Kabrinagaste.

And carried it off to Ethiopia. And we are told in the Kabernagast that Solomon was okay with this. Because it meant that God wanted it to be in Ethiopia rather than somewhere else. There are many problems with this story. And this story does not take into account the mysterious presence.

Of a very ancient community of Jews in Ethiopia. And their story about how they got there. And they said they got there by Way of Egypt. That their ancestors spent some hundreds of years on an island in the Nile. And that island, we are quite certain what that island was.

It was the island of Elephantina. Why are we certain? Because there was a jewish temple built on that island. And that jewish temple was built there in the first Temple period. I beg your pardon.

Can I go ahead a little thing? Yes. The Hebrew of Elephantina knew the wife of Yahweh.

They knew the wives of Yahweh. So they were really another kind of jewish religion. Indeed so. Indeed. Indeed.

So here we come to the interesting point where history connects with this story. Because that jewish temple on the island of Elephantina is a fact. It did exist. There were communications between it and Jerusalem. The temple had the same dimensions as the temple of Solomon.

When I search the Bible for an explanation for the construction of the temple. The only explanation I find is as an house of rest for the Ark of the covenant of the Lord. It's a place in which the Ark of the covenant is to be put. And then suddenly, while the first Temple still exists. We have another temple built in Egypt of the same dimensions.

Those ethiopian Jews say that their ancestors were driven out of that island. This also is true. We know from the egyptian history that this happened. There was a jewish community on that island. And there was conflict with the egyptian authorities.

Because the island of Elephantina is dedicated to the egyptian God Kunum. And Kunum is a ram headed deity. So the tension was caused by the sacrifice of rams that was taking place. So the Velashes say, to cut a long story short, that their ancestors fled south. They didn't go north through a hostile Egypt and back to Jerusalem.

They went south, and they followed the Nile river system. They followed the Blue Nile branch, and they ended up in Lake Tana in Ethiopia. And that's the heartland of ethiopian Judaism, Lake Tana, Lake Tana, which is the source of the blue Nile. And suddenly I could see how this story made sense, because how do you get a connection between Jerusalem and Ethiopia? What connects them?

Once you come into Egypt and into the Nile valley? What connects them is the river Nile. And it made perfect sense. And Lake Tana was the place where the Falacius had their homeland. So once I learned all of this, I began to feel that the ethiopian story really deserved serious investigation.

And I looked into it in great depth, and it was the moment where there was a transition in my life from investigating current affairs issues to investigating the past. Okay? It put me on that path. And the very first thing that I felt about the Ark of the Covenant as I was reading, and I read all of the descriptions very, very carefully, is this thing sounds like a piece of technology. It's constructed, it's carefully made.

There's a blueprint, there's instructions on what to do. There's gold, there's wood, there's gold. Yes. There's these mysterious tablets that are placed inside it, whatever they are. And it opened my eyes to the possibility that there might be a forgotten technological episode in the past of humanity.

And I would not have gone on to write my books about the possibility of a lost civilization if I had not first had that encounter with the mystery of the Ark of the Covenant. Personally, I think the ethiopian claim is rather strong for a lot of reasons. But in a way, its role in my life was to educate me as to the range of mysteries in the past that archaeologists completely ignore and just scornfully dismiss. Yes, they are not interested in myths, in traditions, any such thing. They just dismiss it.

And in the process of doing so, as we say in English, they are throwing out the baby with the bathwater. They're missing important things in their desperate effort to be scientists. Okay? So it was an important lesson for me. There are mysteries in the past that are unexplained, which certainly are not explained by the present model of history, and that that model, therefore, must be questioned.

And that's what I've subsequently devoted my life to. And often, I think many mysteries are explained in too simply way. Yeah, that's right. Far too simple, too simply way. Yeah, yeah, definitely.

But I think that your journey in Ethiopia was a great gift for all. Absolutely, absolutely. A great gift for all us. Thank you. It was an amazing adventure for me and it opened my eyes to problems and issues that I had been completely unaware of before, and it set me on the track that I'm still on today.

I think it's impossible to understand the human condition in the present if we have only a single view of the past. Yes, we must have a diversity of views. We must be open to all of them. And this is the main problem I have with archaeology. I would like, if you want to tell about your series ancient.

Ancient apocalypse, ancient apocalypse, that I of course saw totally as I read your books, because I want that the friends of my maurobellian official channel can hear directly from your voice, your experience. It was extraordinary. It was said there was a breakthrough for me. The problem with communicating controversial information about the past is you want to make as strong a case as you possibly can. So that's fine in a book where you have 800 pages and 2000 footnotes, okay.

But with a television program it's more difficult to make that convincing case. Yes. Especially so if you're banned from filming in Egypt, which I am, and Egypt is an important part of my story to tell. You must make your point in each episode within half an hour. So everything has to move very quickly.

But the advantage, the positive side of it, is that it reaches a huge number of people, which the butcher book would not do, several millions and tens of millions. And this is what I wanted to do, was to not to tell people what to think, because academics do that already, archaeologists do that. They say, this is what you should think about the past. But my project is to encourage people to ask questions about the past where there are anomalies, fundamental, exactly where there are things that are not explained in mainstream history.

Archaeologists complained that I was unkind to them in the series and that I should have included many of them in the series, although I did actually include some archaeologists. But my point is that archaeology dominates, completely dominates all thinking about the past. It dominates it from the moment of childhood, the moment a child starts to go to kindergarten, starts to learn something about the past, what they're learning has been filtered through mainstream archaeology. The whole teaching of history and prehistory in schools, in universities, is all based on the opinions of archaeologists. I say opinions, not facts, based on the opinions of archaeologists.

And they certainly do not invite me to appear on programs as their work, to provide a counterbalance, of course. So my view was that in making this series, I was providing a counterbalance to the overdominant position that archaeological opinion occupies, that it's essential that that be questioned, because archaeology is not physics. There's a difference between physics and archaeology. Physics, I accept, is a hard science. Archaeology is not a hard science.

And the further back you go into the past, the more archaeology is based on interpretation of very minimal numbers of artifacts. So really, with archaeology, what we have is the opinion of a group of scholars. We do not have many facts, and I don't think the public are fully aware of that. So I hoped with the Netflix series that I would make the public more widely aware of that situation. And the problem is that often the opinion of the archaeologist becomes dogma.

Yeah, it becomes dogma. It's really very bizarre that it should be so. There should be no place for dogma in science. As I say, archaeology. The claim of archaeology to be a science at all is very flimsy.

I don't think archaeology deserves to be called a science, but there is a tendency in also other scientific endeavors for a particular outlook to establish itself as the way things are. But the history of science makes it absolutely clear to us that there are no fixed or firm ideas, that ideas change constantly. And what was yesterday's dogma becomes tomorrow's weight paper. It's not listened to anymore. So I don't understand why scientists don't learn more from that.

Even in the hard sciences, everything should be provisional. We are offering ideas. We're investigating a complicated problem. But what we offer is not necessarily fact. It is where we are now.

And this is what I think archaeologists should be doing. But often they don't want be askred because they have the truth. Many archaeologists asked, actually why even my series was allowed, should never have been given permission to be shown. In their view, yes, but when you ask them to give substantive reasons for that, they're incapable of doing so. They cannot provide any substantive reason apart from what they say is, we are archaeologists.

We know everything. Hancock is wrong, and that's a fact. This is no way of debate and no way of argument at all. And it's a sign of a problem that we have in our society, where so called experts, people who define themselves as experts in a field, dominate the field so much that they distort reality. And I believe that's what's happening in the understanding of our past.

And it's why I'm grateful to Netflix for giving me the opportunity to make this series and to present controversial ideas to a large global audience and to set up a global conversation about our past. And of course, fundamental in the past of the world is the Bible that you're translating. It's a fundamental document which plays huge role. Interesting is that the Bible confirm your theories also, if the Bible is only one of the books written in human history and the Bible is the book of one little people. Exactly.

Only one little. The family of Jacob. Not of the Hebrew, of the family of Jacob. But in any case, the contents of the Bible confirms your theories. Give me some ideas about why does it confirm my theories?

Of course, because the Bible speaks clearly about the eloims that have technology absolutely superior to the humankind of this time. Of that time, yeah. And so it's clear there is no discussion, only the dogmatics. So it's a record of communication between people who had advanced technology and a people who did. Yes.

An archie, bishop of the Orthodox Church several years ago told me, Mauro, you know, because we are friends, you know that I agree with you, but I don't can tell because the system kills me.

Well, indeed the system did used to kill people, literally. Oh yes, the Roman Catholic Church. I received a ballot. Oh, really? Yes.

Tell me more. Many years ago you received a bullet, a military bullet. And that's a threat to you? Yes, with a letter in which was written. If I had continued to made conferences.

I made 300 conferences in Italy, Germany, French, Portugal, Croatia, Switzerland. If I had continued, they had the necessity to kill me or to kill one of my days. But likely they did. Nothing happened. But the threat is there and the days of Giordano Bruno are not over.

Okay, okay. Fortunately we are living in other times. Yeah, fortunately we are. But those times are relatively recent when the church was capable of burning people in extremely painful, absolutely and awful ways. I find a great deal of hypocrisy at the church in this matter.

I draw your attention particularly to the spanish conquest of Mexico. Yes. Between 1519 and 1521, those Spaniards who were brutal murderers of the worst kind claimed to be horrified when they witnessed human sacrifice of the Aztecs. The Aztecs would carry out acts of human sacrifice, but not a single one of them was able to contemplate the possibility that burning a fellow human being at the stake is an act of human sacrifice. They are sacrificing that entity to what they believe is God.

It's no different. They were in no position to. So Yahweh ask it human sacrifice did he of child. Tell me more. I didn't know that.

Please talk to me some more about that. In Book of Jeremiah, it tells that he had the necessity to request this human sacrifice because the people wanted to obey his orders. And of course, there's the case of Isaac, who Yahweh instructs to kill his. Is it Isaac? Isaac instructs Isaac to sacrifice his son and then changes his mind at the last minute.

Very cruel behavior. It was normal. It was normal. And Abraham accepted it as normal because Yahweh wanted to try the fate of Abraham. Yes.

And when he saw that Abraham were disposal to give his son in sacrifice, Yahweh sent an so called angel. In Hebrew, Malach, that means a messenger, to stop it. Because Yahweh saw that Abraham was able to kill his son to demonstrate his faith, his dispunability to obey orders of Yahweh. It was normal. Very cruel.

Absolutely normal. Very cruel and obnoxious. Yes, absolutely. Behavior. Absolutely.

Yahweh don't accept criticism. Absolutely. So he cannot be the God of love. Absolutely. No.

He was a God of war. Only a God of war. A God, not a God, of course, but an entity, to use this term, an entity of war. A human being who uses war. Fascinating.

If your interpretation of the Bible were to be widely accepted, it would completely destroy faith in the Bible, is that not correct? Yes, but what is important, and in the conferences, in the lectures, I always say that this. I don't say that God does not exist. Right. I don't know about God.

I don't speak about God. I only say that in that book there is no spiritual God. There are the eloim. Yes. And the BIble is the history of the relationship between Yahweh, one of the eloim, and one people.

Because Yahweh don't, you didn't much care about others. No, the others did not exist. Or if they don't want to submit, they must be terminate. Right. Stop.

The Bible is this book, nothing else? Yes.

It's really important to get these translations correct in a book that is so influential. Yes. And so I value and respect your work in putting some correction to this record. You have a book coming out translated into English.

Elizabeth is ready next month. Next month. And its title is God's in the Bible. God's. God's in Bible.

God's in the Bible. Okay, so I'm a layman. I know nothing about the Bible. I've read tiny bits of it as a child and haven't since. I know very little.

So to begin with, you talked a lot about the Elohim, but what's the orthodox understanding of what the Elohim are? What do most people assume they are? Are they angels? Are they different from angels? What's the normal explanation?

They are thinking what the Catholic Church think. But what is that? God. But in the traditional orthodox understanding of the Elohim, they're plural, right? The sons of God mated with the daughters of men.

They refers to Greek Bible, not to the Hebrew Bible, but in that Bible. In the Greek Bible, their orthodox understanding of Elohim, is that to be the same as God or is that as angels or is that being. No, Elohim is always translated as God, God. The Elohim in Greek is Theos Elohim in Hebrew, Teos in Greek, God in other. In modern translation.

When I had this meeting with those four important theologians, they said, all four, they said that in the Bible we cannot have the certainty of God. So I'm sure that the Bible doesn't speak of God. But in that occasion also, those theologians said the same thing. Okay, so they said there's no one God in the Bible. Those people agreed with you, is that what you're saying?

Many people. Many people, many people. More and more and more. In less than three years in my channel, we have almost 25 million of views in less than three years. Okay, but if I go up to any normal priest and say to him there's no God in the Bible, of course he's going to disagree.

Why should anybody believe your interpretation rather than the orthodox interpretation of the most part of priest doesn't want hear my word because often they are increases in cris, because they don't know how to answer my questions. Because I read, I read in front of them and they say, explain me what is written here. Okay, but there's a body of biblical scholars around the world who would say that, and also the entire church system would say there is one God and he is described in the Bible. Now that's been that way for 2000 years or more. Now why would everyone have missed this?

Why would you be the first person to get it right? Why should we assume that you are correct rather than 2000 years of people who studied the Bible and said it? First of all, you don't must believe me. You have to control in Hebrew what I say in Italian or in English.

It's all, yes, you have to learn Hebrew. You must not believe me absolutely. In my books, in my books, not in that one, because it's an interview. I always, always write the period in Hebrew. Ed and under it, the literal translation.

So everyone can control what I'm saying. Everyone. If everyone can see the translation, why is everyone else wrong? But because they don't want to hear what I'm saying. Because to have a faith is grateful, is necessary for human brain is necessary.

Many, several scientists studied these questions and they wrote that God is the imagine of a God is in the brain and so easier to believe in a God. And they don't want. But overall they don't understand what I'm saying. I'm not saying that God does not exist. Absolutely.

I don't know. I don't have this truth. Absolutely. I simply say that that book doesn't speak of God. It's all after that, God exists.

Fantastic. For me, no problem. Absolutely. I don't want say that God knows it doesn't exist because I don't know it. I don't know.

So I understand with English, we have very flat definitions of words. When there's a word, it means exactly this, I believe. And I don't speak Hebrew, so I don't know. But I believe Hebrew is much more fluid and much more flexible. It's much more difficult.

So as I understand it, there's different ways to read a word. Yes, multiple ways to read a word. It's Necessary to read carefully the Context, to understand the meaning of a unique term. Because, for example, kabod means something. Evie means a person.

EVie in the sense that that person have an importance in the Society.

So means a person famous, a person of glory. So the theologians choose the term glory and always apply to the term Cabood without consider the Contest. But when we read that, the contest says that I cannot see the Cabot in front because he killed me. But when the Cabot passes, I have to be hidden by a rocks. So cannot be the glory of God because God in that case is not able to control the effects of his glory.

So it's ridiculous. So the Context says in every situation, of course, the possible real meaning of this term. So I read a book called Neuropocalypse by a guy called Reverend Danny Nemo. And he went into all of this and he talked a lot about the serpent in the Bible and how in the original Hebrew, the word for it, it says the serpent something Eve. And the translation in the Bible that we get is the serpent deceived Eve.

But the same word could also mean elevated. And there's different ways of reading the same word. And the whole Bible can be translated in a completely different way, just choosing different interpretations. Yes, but it's necessary to pay attention, to pay attention carefully to some few words. And these words are the most important.

Eloim, kabod, ruach, olam, merkava, malach. If you understand the real meaning of this term, you can read another book more fascinating than the book they narrated to us. And the serpent is one of the eloim. The interpretation of Hebrew exegetis tells that the serpent had two arms, two legs, and so he was like us. But serpent meanings, one who knows, one who have profound knowledge, okay?

Not a physical serpent, because the Hebrew says they had arms and legs. So with the case of the serpent, for example, the word could be translated as deceived or elevated, depending on your initial preconceptions and the story that you want to tell when you're the translator or whoever is the translator. So the original Bible translators had a dogma and idea, when they put it into Greek, the story they were going to tell. But other people could put it in a completely different way. Right.

There was the fathers of the church in the first centuries after Christ that said that the translation of Bible and this theological narrative was a useful misinterpretation.

So when it comes to these kind of translations, for example, with the Elohim or the serpent, deceiving or elevating, I understand that because Hebrew is a much more fluid language and you have to pay attention to context much more. You can't put a flat interpretation on a word. Is there a correct and incorrect way of translating it, or is it meant to be multilayered? Is it meant to mean both deceive and elevate? For example.

But for example, there are many translations that make not sense. I mean, for example, Ruach. But to make you understand me well, if possible, with my English, if I in English, tell spirits, I want to say an alcoholic substance, I want to say a phantasm. I want to say a characteristic of the character. I want to say, for example, a spirit of team when I'm working with the other person, and many other meanings that you surely know.

But is the context, everyone, that help us to understand the real meaning? If I say that in this house there are a spirit, a spirit that comes every night, is clearly that I am speaking about a phantasm and not about a spirit of Tim. Of course, in the Hebrew, it's the same. Okay, so it's not that there is multilayered, there is a correct and incorrect translation, but it's all about the context. Yes.

And you're saying that the traditional translation from Hebrew to Greek just got the context wrong. Yes, but between the Hebrew, the Hebrew Bible and the Greek Bible, there are differences.

Also important in many case. Differences. So the hebrew community of Alexandria in Egypt had concept that didn't correspond to the thought of the Hebrew that was in Babylonia. So we can find Differences and we find Differences. Okay, so you're saying there's no God in the Bible as it was translated from Hebrew to Greek, and yet the jewish people have their own Torah in Hebrew, and they're still a monotheistic people.

They still believe in one God. So if the translation is wrong, why do the Jews believe that there's one God when they have the original text? How can they interpret their own Bible wrong? How does that work? Actually, the Hebrew are monolithic.

Monolithic, not monotiste. What's the difference? They know that in the Hebrew Bible there is Yahweh, who is the Eloim, who choose them, who rules above them. And they have to have Faith in him, only in him. But the other can exist.

Do they believe that the other gods do exist, or do they believe there is only one God? There are so many currents in the Judaism that you can find every kind of thought in the Judaism you can find from atheism. From atheism, pure atheism, to the maximum of the orthodox theories. All are present. So in your translations of the Bible, your own interpretation of these different words, you've come to the conclusion that there's no God in the Bible at all.

Yes. And that there is Elohim, which are powerful people, of which Yahweh is one. And so were these people just. You were saying they were just people. They were just normal people, but they were vastly more technologically superior.

Is there any implication at all of them being a different species, perhaps alien or something like that? Or is it just straight up they're normal people who just like a lost civilization? What's your take on that? All around the world, they can be more species of humankind. And in effect, the paleoanthropologist, substantially every two, three, four months, discovers another species of ancient ancestors of the humankind.

Recently they discovered that neanderthal and homo sapiens united male and female. When before they told that was not possible.

So we must be open to all solution, because the truth can be rise every day, but we don't know when. But does your interpretation of the Bible imply that the Elohim are a different species or, like alien? Or are they exactly the same as us? Or is there no implication at all since the Elohims choose the females of the Adamites, the sons of Adam, their species, their species could be all the same or the same or very similar because they could stay together and procreate. Okay, well, these guys, these Elohim were around even during the time of Moses.

You said Moses talked to one of the Elohim when he was escaping Sinai. Yes. So why is the Bible the only account of them? Why isn't there a rich historical record of Elohim outside of the Bible? But from that time we can find the history of those beings all around the world.

What is changing is the name in Semitic, in western Semitic was Eloim. In eastern Semitic was Ilu, Ilanu. Before the Semitic the name was Anunna. In India the name is Deva. In the America, your father can tell more meter than I, than me, via Kochas and so on of the Egypt, exact in the north of Europe via Azi.

But these are very ancient accounts. These are much more ancient than the time of Moses, which I think you said was what, 1200 bc? Something like that. Or later or later. It's not true.

So is there any account of other Elohim from that period? Yes, there was the Elohim that was ruling on the land of Canaan. And Yahweh had the necessity to fight with them. And the Bible is clear in narrated these wars. Clear?

Absolutely. And sometimes Yahweh won, sometimes lose. But the Bible is clear. Are there stories of Elohim from that period, from Moses'period? Outside of the Bible?

Is there any record? For example, there is stele of Mesha, who was the king of Moabites, who tells us about a battle between Moabites and Israel, Israelites. And he says that he won against those of Yahweh. And he offered the prisoners to his Elohim named Kamosh. So this account could be brought, put in the Bible.

Nothing changed. And the king Mesha is quoted in the Bible.

So we have a double check in the same time. A double check.

Finally, if I want to read the Bible today, I can go and buy a Bible. But it's going to be the King James translation or something like that. It's going to be the standard translation that every priest will believe. Is there any way I can read a Bible as you believe to be the true translation? Does that exist anywhere?

Can I read that Bible with these translations? With these translations? I don't know if there is a Bible with these translations. So many people ask me to do a Bible with, but I have no time.

Okay.

I have no time. All right. For the next generation. Okay.

All right. Well, thank you, mab appreciate it. Thank you. To you. Thank you.

To you. Thank you.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity. That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com. This report covers your future world from July 2016 through to 2031. Forecasts are created using predictive linguistics (from the inventor) and cover your planet, your population, your economy and markets, and your Space Goat Farts where you will find all the 'unknown' and 'officially denied' woo-woo that will be shaping your environment over these next few decades.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

4th Turning

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

The transcript from "The Future Human" features a conversation between Alex Gomez-Morin, the director of the Pari center and a neuroscientist, and Mauro Biglino, an Italian biblical scholar and translator. The dialogue delves into the literal translation of the Bible, particularly focusing on the original Hebrew texts. Biglino's work emphasizes reading the Bible literally without allegorical or theological lenses, suggesting that doing so reveals a very different narrative from the commonly accepted one.

Biglino argues that many words in the Bible, such as "Elohim," traditionally translated as "God," are in fact plural, indicating not a singular omnipotent deity but multiple beings ("Elohim" being a prime example, usually translated as God but arguably indicating "gods" or powerful beings). He explains that these beings, including Yahweh, are described as distinct individuals with their own agendas, often engaging in conflicts and wars, quite unlike the singular, omnipotent God of mainstream Judeo-Christian understanding.

Throughout the conversation, they explore various other Hebrew words and phrases, their possible literal meanings, and how these meanings might radically alter the understanding of biblical narratives. Biglino suggests that many of the so-called miraculous events and entities described in the Bible, like the "Ruach" or the story of Adam and Eve, might be understood as descriptions of advanced technologies or beings with advanced knowledge, rather than divine miracles or spiritual phenomena.

The discussion also touches on the consequences of such translations, noting that if the interpretations are true, they could significantly impact the foundations of Judeo-Christian religions. Biglino, however, emphasizes that his work is not about disproving God or religion but about seeking a more accurate understanding of what the ancient texts might actually be saying.

By the end of the conversation, it's clear that while Biglino's translations and interpretations are controversial, they open up a broader discussion about the origins of religious texts, the nature of divinity, and how we understand our past.

The Future Human With Mauro Biglino And Alex Gómez-Marín - 2023-08-25

Welcome, everybody. Welcome to this edition of the Future Human, where we will be in conversation with Alex Gomez Morin, the director of the Pari center, and Mauro Belino. Mauro is an italian biblical scholar, translator, popularizer and best selling author for Mondadori, one of the major publishing houses here in Italy. During his career, he has directed and supervised the translation and publication of 17 books of the Old Testament for Edictioni, Sao Paulo, Italy's main catholic publisher. Mauro's books take the reader by hand and accompany them through a fascinating narration of biblical verses which are analyzed in their original form in ancient Hebrew.

And he will be in conversation with Alex, who is a spanish physicist or neuroscientist. Since 2016, he has been the head of the behavior of organisms laboratory in Alicante, where he is an associate professor for the Spanish Research Council. And he is, of course, also director here at the Pari center. So today Alex and Mauro will be in conversation around the literal translation of the Bible and the oldest secret in history. There will be about an hour dialogue between Alex and Mauro, and then we will open it up to the audience for questions and comments.

And with that, I will hand it over to you. Alex, welcome. Thank you, Eleanor, as always. Thank you, everybody, for coming. And special thanks to Mauro for accepting this live conversation in English.

So to just jump directly to the topic, two months ago, a friend of mine unexpectedly gifted me this book, a topic I would not particularly seek for. And I read it in two days and I had really, and this is not just metaphor, an ontological shock. An ontological shock, yes. Because if Mauro, what you're translating as literally as you can without interpretation, as you said, respecting. I like that.

Respecting the Bible. If that is true, let's say accurate or more accurate than other translations, interpretations, then many things are upside down. Many. And let's start perhaps with the most important word, which is the word Elohim, which is usually translated as God. But if Elohim is not God, then the Bible is another thing.

So let's start with that, right? It's a big summary of my idea. Sure. So there are many words in this book, hebrew words, right? Elohim, yahweh, Olam, kabod, ruach and so on, and many topics like the Garden of Eden, the burning bush, sacrifices to the gods, the chosen people.

But let's begin and let's see how far we can go with the problem with this word Elohim, whether it means God or God or something else. And what you discovered translating when you were asked to translate as literally as you could, without putting any, if possible, an interpretation, what you discovered when you were translating the sacred text. Oh, yes. First of all, I want to apologize with your audience for my English, which is very basic. So I hope to be able to make me understood by your audience.

But first of all, let me start with an argument. I want to say that my method, my approach to the Bible, is to pretend that the Bible literally tells us what in the Bible is written without introduce allegories, metaphor and so on. And I noticed that if we read the Bible literally, without allegories and so on, the Bible has a lot of sense. If we read the Bible with the theological lenses, the Bible, the entire Bible, does not make sense.

And this is why I prefer to read literally the Bible and to pretend that the Bible is really what is written in it. Do you understand? Yes. Is it clear? Yes.

It's important to know my method, my approach, in order to understand what I say in this conversation. In effect, the term eloim is the most important, because Eloim is a plural term in Hebrew language, but it is always translated as God, singular. But this is clearly a mean translation, is clearly a mistake. It's a theological mistake, because the theologians need to say that in the Bible there is God. But it's important to say that the Bible doesn't speak about God.

I want to be clear. I don't speak about God. I don't want to say that God does not exist. God is not my concern. I only read the Bible and tell to the public what the Bible really says.

This is important to know. I'm not an atheist, I'm not a dogmatic. I want to have an open mind, and I recommend to read the Bible with an open mind. And also, if the Bible does not speak about God, that doesn't mean that God does not exist. I want always to clear this fact, because it's important we talk about a book, not about a religion.

The religion is a construction on this book. This book was not written in order to create a religion, but only to narrate the relationship between the hero of the book, I. E. Yahweh, and his tribes, the tribes of Jacobs. Not all the Hebrews.

That is important to know, but only about the tribes of Jacobs. The other Hebrews were enemies, were considered enemies always. This is important. Now, if you have a question. Yes, many.

But I want to let you unfold it slowly. Let me just mention towards the end, I want to ask you about the nevertheless big consequences of your translation of the Bible, regardless of whether you're saying something or not about religion. But if you unmount this book, at least three main religions crumble. Right? And that's something to bear in mind.

And it's fair to say that's not your intent, but that's a consequence of your work. Yes, that wasn't my intent. Yes, but is a consequence of method to approach to the Bible.

It has consequences for the religion, us, but not about the fate of the singular person, individual. Because if God exists, God exists, exists. And the fate can refer to it, refers to it. I want to see that. That God, the God of the religions, is not into the Bible.

So you say the consequences.

After translating 17 books for Sao Paulo Editioni, when I started to speak in public, to narrate in public my findings, they immediately show me the way to the way out. They immediately fired me. And so since 2010, I continued by myself to translate and to write and publish books. I published 16 essays on these topics, because these topics is very interesting for many causes. Of course, one of these is the problem that these translations create to the religions.

Yes. And to get this out of the way, something very interesting. And this is starting to be a common pattern amongst the people I talk to here. When you go and check Mauro's Wikipedia, which is something you shouldn't do, you rather buy the book and read what the author has to say? We find the usual words, conspiracy theory and pseudoscientific speculation, right?

Which to me means very little and even less coming from Wikipedia. But of course, what you're doing is unpopular, I suppose, on many sides, and I don't want to dwell a lot on it. I just want to make it explicit and then continue with this translation of the word Elohim. So you said. It's clearly a mistake.

So theologians perhaps disagree because they do their interpretation. But what about translators? What about philologists? Do they agree? Is it clear, is it unequivocal that the proper translation, or maybe you should explain that first.

The point here is that it's found in plural. We haven't spoken about the singular versus plural. And then let us know if there's controversy, not amongst theologians, but amongst other translators. Oh, yes, I read that. But I want to say a thing.

My books are studied in theologians University. I know that for sure, because it's necessary to know that no one in the world knows exactly what eloim means. No one in the world, no scholar. Eloim is translated in many ways because no one knows the real meaning of the term Elohim. So in my books and in my videos, in my channel, maurobelian official channel, I always recommend not to translate this word.

It's better to leave it as it is. It's better to leave it in Hebrew. But what is fundamental is read carefully. The context in which this term is put is used because the context allows us to understand what the Bible says and what the eloim means. And the context tells us clearly that Elohim were many individuals in flesh and blood.

So is absolutely clear. The Bible tells us also the name of several of this Elohim. And the hero of the protagonist of the Bible, Yahweh, was just one of the eloim, one of multiple eloim, just like the other. And Yahweh needed to fight against the order in order to conquer lands, to rule over.

Now, how come other translators didn't come across that? Or perhaps they did. It's just that you're putting it today on another context to another lens. Maybe you're offering a more complete picture, because as I said at the beginning, having read your book, it's not just about Elohim, it's about many other things. But how come they didn't pick up this fact?

Because you said what's clearly a mistake, and I asked you how clear that is. But also the word mistake is interesting. Is it simply a mistake? Is it deliberate? It surprises me that.

Well, that I didn't know that, and that new translations of the Bible are not done with this more literal translation. Why didn't I know about this until this friend gave me the book? But I think it derives from the fact that the religion and the theologians uses the Greek Bible and the Latin Bible, in which Elohim is translated in Greek as theos, in Latin as theos.

I have a classical background, so in my high study I studied ancient Greek and Latin. And this fact was verified by the catholic publishing house before to give me the task to translate, because without knowing Greek and Latin, it's too hard or impossible to translate correctly the Bible. So in my translation I point out these three languages, Hebrew, Greek and Latin. And this is fundamental in order to understand this fact. Yes, but I know that if Elohim is, is a plural term for the theologians, is very difficult, is very hard to explain to the people the meaning of the religion.

And so they necessarily have to say, to try to demonstrate that Eloim is singular. But in this book, in one of the chapters devoted to the Loim, I demonstrate that in the Bible there are at least 23 lom, 23 loim. And so is clear in the Bible, they are named, they are fighting each other.

They were ruling over diversity, various nations. And Yahweh had one of these nations. Yahweh had the people of Jacobs, which was assigned to him by the chief of the eloim. That in the Bible is named Elion. Yes, and I understand better now that the whole discussion doesn't hinge only on singular versus plural, because I've tried to find the counterarguments to your translation.

And some people say, well, you can use the plural, but it means singular. Or as you already mentioned, well, you read it allegorically. I've also asked some of my friends who can read Hebrew, how do you read the Bible if you do? And they say, well, we don't pay so much attention to the words. It's more about the vibration.

And I respect all of that. I think this is all fine, but what you're saying here is not only that it appears as plural many times, so it's not God, but gods, but that these gods are very peculiar creatures that do all sorts of things that don't look like godlike stuff. And as you go on through the book, and maybe you can pick which ones you want to emphasize, otherwise I can do it. It feels really unbelievable. That's why I mentioned this ontological shock.

The chosen people are not. The chosen people are those ruled by a particular eloim, Yahweh and the gods, like sacrifices of stuff that's burned for some very weird reasons. And here there's a bit of speculation. Adam is not made. It's engineered the Garden of Eden.

I mean, I'm doing all these spoilers now. I hope you don't mind of your book, but the Garden of Eden was a lap. It's like, come on, what is going on here? Right? What is going on?

But perhaps is going on the truth? The truth that I think the hierarchy of the church knows very well. Absolutely. Because in the history of the translator, I'm not the only translator that understood this topic. Because you read my book, I introduced many proofs of the fact that Loem is plural.

And in effect, loom is used with the verb at the singular and in the plural form. And in this Book, I also demonstrate that if Eloim is singular, the Bible doesn't make sense. Absolutely, the Bible has sense. If we consider that Eloim were many individuals. And in effect, the topic of Elohim is the most important in the book ideal, you know, with many other topics as Satan, angels, Ruach, Elijah, the cherubs, the so called cherubim in Hebrew, and so on.

But the most important is Eloim. Because as you said before, if Eloim means God, the Bible is a thing. If Eloim doesn't mean God, the Bible is entirely another thing, is an historical Bible that narrates us a small part of a bigger history, which is narrated all around the world. The Bible is only one of the books that humanity wrote. In the Books of Asia, of America, we find the same concepts.

We find the same concepts also in the greek books, in the latin books, in the Latin so called mythology and so on. In two of my books written for Mondadori, I compared the Bible with the Omeros books and Omeric books. And it's clear that they narrate the same history. They speak as about the same individuals. That in Hebrew are Eloim, in sumerian and Assyrian are Anunna or Anunati.

In Greek is Theoi. But they are the same individuals now have the same needed characteristics. Who are they? They're not gods, but they're not humans. And so here we are again.

Here's again a theoretical physicist turned neuroscientist asking a hebrew translator about what extraterrestrials, other species. And I know this is now speculation, that's not literally reading from the Bible, but you triangulate from many aspects of the lives of these hello hymns as to what they were. So what do you think they were? It's a very interesting argument, but the Bible doesn't tell us where they came from. Reading carefully the Bible, we can understand that they were not humans.

They make the humankind. They made the humankind. And they intervene with a surgery intervention. And this is said also by many rabbis who say that the Bible knows. Since 4000 years ago, the Bible knows the clonation.

It's enough to read the method with which were format not created Adam and Eve. And that, I repeat, is written by many rabbis. Who knows the truth. You know how if that enrages, that upsets more than upsets theologians. You can imagine how much this should upset scientists, especially biologists, right?

If now you're suggesting or even saying that the human race is not created by God, they'll be happy about that. But you're saying it's not just a product of evolution, natural evolution, but it's engineered by some sort of creatures more advanced than us. That's why immediately the hammer of conspiracy theory falls upon us. So what else can we say from the text and also from other lines of evidence about such a big claim here. We have another big headline.

Right? Right. I think there have been another kind of intervention between the evolution and the creation, an intelligent intervention on the homo sapiens or homo erectus in order to produce another species able to understand and execute orders. And so is clear in many books all around the world. All these books, I think to the hindu books tells us more clearly than the Bible.

And in India this is not a problem. It's not a problem.

The number of the eloim, which in that land are called deva, absolutely is not a problem because they don't have a monotheistic religion. On the contrary, we have a monotheistic religion which can't accept this fact. But in the Bible is absolutely clear. I have no doubt. Obviously, I pretend, as I said, that the Bible tells or told us the truth.

I'm not sure of that, of course, because it's an ancient book and with the ancient book it's necessary to be very careful when you read it. But given the fact the theologians tells us that this book is the book of God, I suggest to read this book carefully with open mind, just like we read other books, just like we can read Mahabharata, Bhagavad, Gita, Veda and so on, with the same open mind, and we can understand that they tell us the same mystery. The same mystery. Now when you say truth, I guess you don't mean revelation. You mean that what was written is what they were trying to mean, right.

That's what you mean by truth, right? Because some people may think you're saying that the Bible is the truth, but you're saying the truth in the sense that what these people bother to write so painfully, I suppose it's what they were seeing or what they were being told by their people, right? Not the trust in absolute, but the trust in this book. Yes. Now more things here.

When you were mentioning other traditions and you're mentioning polytheism, probably. And that's again, I express my ignorance in all these matters when in India, for instance, I suppose they don't have a problem with the devas or these many gods. Perhaps they don't. But do they have a problem in taking them not seriously but literally? Do they take them literally as you're doing of these elohims?

But I think that is not possible to talk about politicism because these individuals were not considered as gods, but individuals, dangerous individuals to those was necessary worship because of their knowledge, because of their technology and so on. But they weren't spiritual God, the Bible, but not only in the Bible, I would say, in all of the semitic thought, there aren't concepts, there aren't transcendental concepts like spirituality, omnipotence, omniscience, and so on. And also in the Bible, for example, there is a term, el Shaddai is a term used by one of these, eloim.

And he used this term to present, to introduce himself to Abraham and said, I am el Shaddai. This term, shaddai is always translated as omnipotent, but it doesn't mean omnipotent. El Shaddai, the same scholars write that means God, the lord of the mountain, or at least the lord of the desert. There is no omnipotence in the Bible, never. And actually, I had heard this from the theologians in the US.

Specifically, I think it was David Griffin who passed away last year, that the almighty, the word almighty was a big mistake. He was also trying, from his point of view, which is a very different one than yours, from process philosophy, to correct and to try to think of a theology that can work without omnipotence and omniscience within a process philosophical point of view. So it's fascinating to see this also coming from another totally different approach. I would say it's interesting to read in the Bible that when Yahweh wants to conquer a land, he needs to fight. So it's clear he is not omnipotent, but it has the same powerful of the others, Elohim.

And this, for example, is clearly written in the Bible of the judges, where is written that Yahweh is as Kamosh, the so called God of the Moabite, and is written that it has the same power, but is not necessary to have a particular translation. Is the normal translation by theologians either this part of the Bible? Yes, because it's too hard to explain, but it's clear it's under our eyes in the Bible that we have at home. Yes, not in my translations. Not in my translations.

Yes, I was thinking of your translations, or at least the bits that you articulate in your book for us who don't know, to be able to follow with the hebrew text. And then underneath the translation, your commentary over and over, covering so many aspects. I was thinking of it as a scientific hypothesis, and I don't know if it can be falsified or how one would falsify it, but in the sense of, well, here we have all these pieces of data, this evidence, and here's an overarching explanation that tries to best explain what's going on. And there again, not knowing a word of Hebrew, except the ones I've learned from you, these main ones, I would agree that, again, if the garden was not the garden you speak of, also about the tree. The trees, that's very interesting.

Everything is so interesting. These two trees, there seems to be only one, the burning bush. Maybe there's another way of translating what that thing was, how these Elohims behaved. They seem to behave as greedy, as angry. So that doesn't feel very spiritual at all.

Well, all of these disconnected. They are not disconnected facts, but all these parts of the history of the story put together under the overarching hypothesis, well, at least it should be entertained. And that's also a premise of all these conversations I have with people, is that, well, what happens if we entertain this? Where does it bring us and how likely it is that it is the case? If I understood your question, I want to say that if put together all the topics, about all the topics you said, you quoted, the Bible is clear.

It's not necessary to introduce any other concept. For example, the bash burning. The term in Hebrew, seme, means mountain crest. I don't know how to say in English. Yeah, top of a mountain.

Yes, please help us. Yes, that's correct. Crest, top of a mountain. Thank you. And so Moses didn't see a bash burning, but the rocks on which perhaps there was some substance that was burning without burn the rocks, just like if we put gasoline on the rock, we see the gasoline burning, but the rock doesn't burn.

I see. And does make sense. And in the other part of the Bible, the term sene is the name of a mountain. It's called sene. So it's not necessary to make particular translation.

It's necessary read the entire context, because often the meaning comes out reading various books. For example, if you mix the Book of Genesis with some chapters of the Book of Ezekiel, you clear understand the meaning of the term ruach, which I devoted a chapter to the ruach in this book, because ruak is always translated as spirit of God. Now, in many situations, it doesn't mean spirit is a real concrete thing because it's necessary to say that the Hebrew is a polysamic language. And so it's only the context that allows us to understand which is the real meaning in that verse. Because in some verses, ruach can be the spirit of God, but in other verses, clearly it can't be the spirit of God.

It must be necessary. Another thing, because Elijah, get on this ruach. Ezekiel, get on this ruach. This ruach, rise from the ground, this ruak comes from the north. So it's impossible that in that cases ruak means spirit of God because if that were true, we must have the spirit that is in the north, but it isn't in the south, in the east or in the west.

And that is ridiculous, of course. Now, when I was arriving at this chapter, I think it was towards the end of the book about Ruach. And that must happen now, should be happening now to many of the audience listening and maybe those who will listen. No, Mauro is talking about. No, really, please.

Are you talking about a UFO? A uap? Oh my God, here we go. Even more controversial and given what's going on in the US right now with the hearings and so on, and given the bad press of ufology and so on, well, Maro, you seem to be indicating thou was unidentified area of phenomena.

I would say a thing in the Bible, those are not unidentified aerial phenomena because are clearly identified phenomena. There is no doubt the hours of today are unidentified Irel phenomena or UAP. But those in the Bible are clearly identified, are described. It's enough to read the book of Ezekiel, but it's necessary to read it with open mind, as I said before, without the theologian's lenses. And it's clear that ruach is a flying machine, but clearly identified, clearly described.

Today we see the lights in the sky and so we unidentified these lights. Ezekiel saw this ruach very, very close.

He got on this ruach, Elijah got on this ruach. So it's absolutely clear in Ezekiel. I recommend if you don't want to read all the book of Ezekiel, I recommend to read chapter one, chapter three, chapter eight, chapter ten, chapter eleven. And is written then when the cupboard or the ruak of Yahweh when rises from the ground, produces a loud noise and Ezekiel in that case cannot see the kabod because it's behind him. But he hear clearly the loud noise produced by the cabood of Yahweh when rising from the ground.

So it's clear. And they are not my translations. My translations are others. You see, in the book I always indicate the verses in Hebrew and the literal translation so everyone can verify what I am saying. Everyone can verify as a joke, but that's serious.

I don't know what people would like to believe now that there's this third ingredient in the menu because those who hated the idea of God the creator may be really scared about. Well, if the alternative is these flying things, well, I'd rather now I prefer the old story told, but leaving that aside and related to this question of the ruach, where are the Elohims today? If they were here, whatever they were, where are they today? I don't know. I don't know because my concern is the Bible.

I don't want to make strange od hypotheses, because all hypotheses are possible. I am open to all hypotheses, but I don't tell the truth. I don't know. Where are they? There is church pastor in the USA which describes that the eloim are here and are the real governors of the earth.

But I don't know. So I prefer to not answer, or better I answer I don't know. It's not a problem. I don't know, because in the Bible it's not written. Okay, let me ask you differently then, and that's very fair, Mauro.

If those people, saw them, interacted with them, you even described that they may have had relationships with women and so on. Well, if that was this usual exchange communication, why don't we see them now? Where are they? Not where are they, but no, I just ask you that not where are they. Why don't we see them as these people, these ancient humans used to, because perhaps they were or they are just like humankind.

So that is written in one letter of St. Paul, in which is written that if you encounter an unknown individual and he asks you something, perhaps to come to your home, it's better to receive him, because he could be one of them. It's clearly written in Greek, so is in indian taste, because in Genesis six is written that they mix it with daughter of the Adamites. So if they could to mix with daughter of the Adamites, it could mean that they were or they are very similar to us.

If it's truth, it's impossible to recognize them. Let me move to another one, because so far we've been talking only about the Old Testament. I know we could talk an hour about what I'm going to ask you now. But what about Jesus? What about the New Testament?

Who was Jesus? And, well, it's not a problem to offer possibilities, because we've been told a fiction, we've been told a regular man, we've been told a man who also was a God, and we've been told even that he was a mushroom. I've also come across that hypothesis. Serious one. A serious one, actually.

So who was Jesus in your expert? From your point of view, this is a topic very, very sensitive. It's hard to try to explain in a few words I know. And by the way, we could say maro, let me just say, if somebody doesn't want to hear it, they can just leave now, no problem. It's sensitive.

We want to hear what you have to say. To the degree that this is complex and I understand, yeah, I can tell two words about this topic. The gospels are the persecution of the Old Testament.

And in the gospels, the authors talk about Gabriel. Gabriel is not an angel. Gabriel is not a spiritual entity. According to Jesuit, that is cardinal in France. In France, Gabriel was, in Hebrew, an ish, I-E-A man.

In book of Daniel is clearly written that Gabriel was an ish. And Gabriel encounter Maria, and Maria becomes pregnant.

So Jesus could be. I prefer, I want the could be, because I haven't the truth. Could be the son of one of them, the one who was propheticized before by Isaiah and so on. And he could be a product of this interbreeding between one of the loom. Because Gabriel in Hebrew means power of an l.

L is a singular term of eloim.

So Gabriel is a power of an l, is not a name of a person, is a function, is a function present in the Old Testament, and it is also present in the New Testament. So we must know that. And if Jesus is a son of Gabriel and Mary, Jesus could be one of them now. And this allows me to ask you something that to me is very important that I don't understand of the whole story so far laid out. And maybe Jesus can help all these elohims that they sound like more advanced than us in the sense that they can do things that these humans couldn't.

And they have this ruach and they do these things with us, supposedly, but they all seem very kind of petty, know, like angry and greedy. They never sound, at least from what I've read from you, they never sound like elevate. And I don't want to say they're spiritual, but they don't sound like elevated beings, but Jesus sounds like that. So are there elohims or descendants of elohims? And we are in the speculation mode totally now, who feel like, sound like spiritual beings, like more evolved beings.

Yes. This is why before I said that this is an Od argument, because it needs many time to explain, because Jesus is clearly different from Yahweh. Yahweh that is presented us, introduced us as father of Jesus, as godfather, is another kind of individual, as said, as written in Bible is called ish milkrama, I. E. Men of war.

So they didn't concern with religion with spiritually, with transcendence, with omnipotence, with omniscience, and so on. On the contrary, Jesus tells us a new message, a message which is completely different from the message from the tales narrated in the Old Testament. But without the Old Testament, Jesus could not be exist.

Okay, we're running out of time. I'll talk to you for so long. Let me just go for two more easy questions. Mauro. So one is practical.

Remind us the percentage of the corpus you have translated. How much more is left? Will you do it? Can you do it? Who can do it?

Because when my friend gave me this book, my friend is called Alex, like me. I said, well, is there a big linear Bible? Is there a Bible? Complete translation. And I know the Bible are many books.

And in some cases, some books are included, others are not. But what's the bar? The percentage of what you have translated or others that do it like you? And what else is needed? Maybe philanthropies?

Money? Or are these books available? My big question is, can we expect to have a complete new literal translation of the old? And why not? On the New Testament, I translated for me, only for me, almost 25.

The New Testament, new fives, 25 times the entire Old Testament and New Testament. In regard to Old Testament, I translated 21 books. And if you consider that the Old Testament of the Hebrews contains less than 30 books, the percentage is very high, you know. But I have in mind to translate the entire Bible and to publicate, to publish my translation.

I'm not a mad fool.

It's a thing that fascinated me. Yes, all right. And there's no problem in accessing those texts. I mean, that maybe goes back to the question where we started, because ironically, you were asked, maybe that's not accurate enough, not by the Vatican, but as I understand, by the publishing house of the Vatican, to translate those books specifically, to do it literally. And then they didn't like that translation.

Maybe that's inaccurate, too. Now, do you need their intervention? What's your relationship with the Vatican, if any? About that. I was very appreciated as translator.

In effect, they published 17 books translated by me with my name. 17. These books are in the faculty in the university of Theologians, are studied. Of course, these books are dangerous for them. But they want to know what I said, what I wrote, and I don't remember the question.

Well, your relationship with the Vatican, do you need their text? Are you in good shape with them? Some people inside. I mean, maybe that's secret, but they write to you and they say, well, good work. We already knew that.

But this is not what we want people to hear, et cetera. Today I don't have a public relation with the Vatican because I was fired. And so I am continuing to work by myself. But I know I am in relationships when some individuals, some eye individuals of the Vatican that they want to be public, but they have personal contact with me. I see.

And I'm so glad of that because this fact increased my determination. Yes, well, thank you for sharing that. Okay, my last comment question. So here in the future human, we explore the future human. But to do that we need to see where we are, our place, and very importantly also, that's why we've also been reflecting with others.

Often someone says that the man want to do as God.

You froze there. The man won't want to.

And if the eloim came from other words, we are like them. We want to explore. To explore other words. All right, so you jumped already into what I was going to ask you because we want created or fabricated other species. Yes.

Just like they make with us. Well, look, all that may sound too crazy, but if you think what we do with cats and dogs, you don't hear domestication. We've domesticated many species and now with AI, many people talk about hybridizing with the machines. Well, these things can have their moral derivatives, but we entertain them. Well, why not entertain them in a wider context of what we discussed today as to the future human?

Yes, but what is interesting is that human species has many characteristics of domesticated species. Many characteristics. And the question is, who domesticated us? Because no one species domesticates herself. It's necessary.

There is another, but many biologists say that, say that we are characteristics typical of a domestical species. Thank you, Maro. That in the Bible is basically present a possible truth about our origins. Yes, and that's precisely why I wanted to be in conversation with you. Thank you so much for sharing.

I'm frozen and you are frozen too. Thank you very much for sharing this with us and for doing it in English. I didn't understand because you were frozen. Yes, I'm saying thank you for sharing this with us, for doing it in English. And now I'll open it up to the rest of the audience for their comments and questions for about 25 more minutes, if you don't mind.

Okay, thank you. I hope the audience understood what I said. I think it was very clear and we'll hear from them now. I think you were very clear. Thank you.

If you would like to ask a question, you can use the raise your hand function at the bottom of your screen under reactions. I see we already have quite a few hands up already. And so I will invite Faljin to come in. Please, come on with your question. I would just ask you if you could speak slowly just to make sure that Mauro understands your question.

Thank you. Thank you, Eleanor. Yes, your English is very good and you were very clear. I just wanted to make one comment because I've done seven years of Latin, Greek and Hebrew many, many years ago. And I remember my struggle with Hebrew was that we don't know what the vowels are.

So I can say to you, him and hem three different ways. And so that was all my struggle when I had to produce a paper. I think it is subject to many, many different interpretations. And then you have the whole faith tradition of 2000 years. So looking at it as I did 40 years ago, I realized there are tremendous difficulties in translating the Old Testament, but a lot less in the New Testament.

And we have a wrathful God, we have a judgmental God, we have a God. That's. Then, you know, you can come up with what like Ian McGilchrist thinks that goodness, beauty and truth are important. And so I think that I understand your work. I think it's quite a laborious thing that you are trying to achieve.

Because we don't know what all the vowels are in Hebrew, so we can come up with different interpretations. But I like to look at the faith tradition and a sense of people and that has led to terrible things as well. So I think we just always have to continually evaluate. But thank you. Leave this for some other comment.

Thank you. To you. In effect, it's right. The ancient Hebrew was written without vowels. The vowels were put by the Masorets between the fifth and the 9th century before Christ.

But not to be accused. No. Yes.

To chose my Bible. I translated the masoretic Bible that you know, is the official Bible of the tradition. The Masoretic Bible is considered the official. I know there are many bibles in the story. There are the Masoretic Bible, the Sumerian Bible, the Greek Bible, the Syrian Bible Bible and so on.

But given that the theologians tells us that the true Bible is the Masoretic. I use that. Well, that depends. Not my choice. If you accept that that's the only true Bible.

But I only read the test of Qumran. I read the Old Testament in Greek and so on, of course. But when I speak in public, I prefer to speak about the so called official Bible.

Thank you. Thank you, Valjun, for coming in. Jeremy, would you like to join the. Thanks. Thank you.

Thank you very much. Very interesting. I really enjoyed it. I think that one of the questions what I'd like to hear more about, and I don't know, again, it's time, and I'm sure it's complex, is the sense of the spirit in David Bohm's work, science and the spirit. For example, there's these.

And I suppose in the narrative as I understand it, which is know, in reading Bohm and in reading McGillcrest, my spirit led and was aligned very much to the way that I understood the teachings of Jesus. Certainly not maybe conventional religious. Sure. I mean, I don't regard myself as a conventional religious person, but the Holy Spirit is, in a sense, what Jesus says, that he leaves. And I think in the narrative, those people know you have this thing, the mystery of the resurrection in a way, where he comes back.

And so I think none of what you're saying really rocks my world, to be honest. As a person who follows in the way of Jesus, I don't see that anything you saying really rocks my world because I walk in the spirit of Jesus, of that risenness. And if he was, you could call him an alien who came down or if he was sort of married off with maybe someone from a higher order that we don't know about. I think that his message of love and peace and nonviolence, as in the sermon on the mount, and those things are what we follow in the way of. And certainly, I think there's been corruption and contemption and a kind of war that's gone on around with many theologians.

So I just wanted to say I appreciate that. And my question is, so what would you say the Holy Spirit is? And isn't that what Jesus really gave? And how does that relate to love and joy and peace and patience, et cetera? Thank you.

There are many studies of the Jesuits in which is written that the Holy Spirit is a christian transposition of the Gabriel of the Old Testament.

One of these Jesuits is a cardinal in France. He's a theological scholar, and he writes clearly that Holy Spirit is the translation. Yes, the translation of the Gabriel of the ancient Testament. But this is a question of faith, and I prefer to not enter in this question because the Bible is an historical book, and I want to say to narrate to my public what it really writes. Okay, thanks very much.

And I really enjoyed it. Thank you. Thank you to you. Thank you. Niels, would you like to come in?

Thank you. Much of what you talked about has got really deep meanings in me from a long life of experience of the spiritual.

I have one question about ancient Hebrew. I've got a friend who was an ancient Hebrew scholar, and he mentioned that the word Yahweh consists of two letters which each describe a different direction. Is that true? I understood from you that Java is just one of the elohims, so it's like an offspring of the same family, so to speak. That's how I would like to see that.

So it's very important for me because I have developed some software, and that is like a process, and that process is like a mind, if I can just say that. And that mind comes about by combining two directions, in a sense that the mind is from the future to the present, and the other direction is the direction that we live. And this was an incredible experience for me to just try this out. It came like an intuition, and then I tried it out, and it had a huge impact.

I will just say that I have always felt this spirit in my life, and the way it manifests itself is like perfection. And I've had experiences of producing perfect things in my life at various stages without any input from myself, so to speak. That's all I want to say. I like the word that the Elohim is.

You mentioned al Shadai in our understanding from our Bible.

He's the God of prospect and a helping hand. And so, in a sense, to me, that is actually what the Holy Spirit is. Jesus talked about the Holy Spirit as the helper who would come, and he will only come because I have to leave you. So by his resurrection, the Holy Spirit was then imparted to all mankind. That's how I see it.

So I will stop now. I would like you to say something about that. I heard with open mind what you said. Yes, but I prefer to remain strictly united with the literal meaning of the Bible. Yes.

Without any theological interpretation. And I appreciate your experience. That, I'm sure is very important for you, and I don't want to question it. Absolutely, yes, but how did the Bible come about? It was oral kind of tradition that carried that through from experiences.

So without experience, there would be no theology.

All is possible, of course, but no one in the world knows when the Bible was, right. Yes. Was written. No one knows when it was written. No one knows when it was read because it was written without vowels.

So it's extremely difficult to reach the real meaning of the Bible.

And it's difficult to understand the real message of the Bible. Yes.

It's important for your experience, I'm absolutely sure. Perhaps you could say something about Yahweh, since Niels asked, and we didn't talk about that word. Yahweh is a name which was pronounced when the Hebrew language did not exist. Yes, many centuries before. So no one knows the real meaning of this term.

The scholars have make many hypotheses about this term, but I prefer to let him untranslate it because each translation is a product of one scholar or two or three or four is not sure. Absolutely, because. No, because we don't know in what language he was pronounced the first time. And it was written several centuries about it was pronounced and the vows were put many centuries after it was written. So about Yahweh, basically, we don't know.

Okay, thank you. I'll just say that I've been reading the Bible for many years, for 60 years, and I take it literally, and I've made up my own interpretation of things. And there are many contradictions and you have to overcome those, too. But I found that the literal thing speaks to me. In my experience.

It grows. Thank you very much. Thank you to you very much. Glenn. Come in.

Hi. Unmute myself. Can you hear me? Yeah. Yes.

All right. I have two questions. One pertains to Jesus'miracles and the second pertains to Emmanuel Velikovsky. So the first question I wanted to ask is these miracles that we know from. Know, like splitting the water and the fish and, I don't know, turning something into wine and stuff like that.

Do you think he had, like, high tech gadgets that he used to do that? Or do you think it came from maybe like a telepathic or telemorphic or something like that, from the mind? Did he do it from the mind? Or did he have in Star wars like a laser beam or something like that, with what he could do it? And the second question to Emmanuel Vilikovsky, I was wondering, have you studied him or in your studies?

Did you research him? Because I think that kind of ties into. Because he was a close friend, as I understand, of Ibad, Einstein, which then would tie into David Bohm and to David Pete. So, yeah, those are my two questions. Yes.

I start with the second. In brief, let me say that if Verikowski is, in truth, all the history falls down. All the history falls down. So we don't know.

Belichowski is very appreciated and is also very contrastated.

I don't have studied all this theory, so I don't know. Answer completely to your question. And the first question, the miracles of Jesus. In one of italian books, I examined some of these miracles. And they didn't wear miracles because Jesus speaks to his apostles, to his servants.

And Jesus at one point says to the apostles, is it possible that I have to explain everything to you?

So there's a chance that actually he was trying to say to them that there's some things he cannot really explain and couldn't really show them at their stage of development, I guess. And also with the gospel, we need to pretend they are truth because we don't know who wrote these gospels, because not Mark, Luke, Matthew and John wrote these gospels. We have holy transcriptions belonging to a time after the life of Jesus. We have more than 20,000 of inscriptions, and there aren't two equals. So we must pretend.

It's difficult to have for sure a truth by the gospels.

Okay, thank you very much. Thank you to you. I'm sorry for English.

Gina. Oh, no, I saw Gina disappeared, but maybe that was a mistake. No, here I am. Okay. Hi.

Thank you so much for this important lecture. I don't know if you're going to have time, but I wanted to ask if you've studied any of the gnostic texts and the Naghamati, and if you have any correlation with some of those gospels, particularly related to the Elohim or the origin stories.

The gospels, like the one of Thomas and other like that have not an connection with Old Testament, because as a product of another way of reasoning, are not Jews Testament are not in the history of the Jews of the history reasoning.

I don't know.

Yeah, just to make sure I understood. You're saying that they're totally different and that they're not the same, but some of the stories overlap? No. There were at the time at least 50 form of Christianity. They fought one each other.

And each of this form of Christianity told that they had the true verbs, the true phrases of Jesus, but we don't know what they are.

Well, thank you. Eva, would you like to come in and ask your question in Italian? I could explain more better than that, but it's impossible. I understand a little, but I don't know if I could that.

Eva, you're muted. Ok. There you go. Thank you. Thank you very much for this very fascinating and very multidimensional conversation.

I come from a very different background as a jungian scholar and a kabbalist, so it's a different background and I'm certainly not a hebrew scholar, and I very much appreciate the incredible scholarship that has gone into this. I had a question that I posted over here, if you remember way back, and it might have been the 60s when this book chariots of the gods came out by Eric von because he speaks of the children of the gods. And I think it overlaps to what you're speaking about intermarrying with the children. I think the children of the humans and that there were two different people, that it was fascinating. I remember finding out about it.

In the other one is Elizabeth Heitz's book initiation, where she has her memory of ancient Egypt, of an initiation. She also speaks of what you're talking about, that there was an interrupt marriage between the sons of gods and the daughters of men. Are YOu familiar with these particular. This episode is narrated in chapter six of Genesis, when the author tells us that the sons of Eloims took the daughters of the Adamites because they were Tovot. And Tovot in Hebrew means beautiful, of course, but it means also useful.

Useful for interbreeding. And they did it.

Yeah.

From these unions became the giants. So that is written in the 6th chapter of Genesis, but is written also in the ethiopic book of Enoch. That is not accepted by the CAtholic Church, but is accepted by.

And would you agree that the sons of gods, when they intermarried with the daughters of men, that they pollute, that the consciousness was lowered? Does that make sense to you? But reading carefully the Bible, I don't find a higher conscience in these eloims, no higher conscious. They were men of war. They make it war, make it worse.

And they didn't concern with the religion, with the spirituality, with the events, with the sky.

My study fix with the study of Eric von Daniken and Graham Hancock, too. I have been at home of Graham Hancock. Yes, we talked about for more than 2 hours. Yeah. The Bible talks about an ire civilization before ours.

That was before the warlike. The warlike Elohim before the war. Because you said the Elohim were warlike. Yeah, well, men of war. Yeah, but not only the Elohim of the Bible, also the eloim of the other nations, like Sumerians, Babylonians, Assyrians, hindu culture and so on.

The Greeks, the Romans, they were always the same.

Well, thank you. Thank you very much. That would explain a lot of where we are, isn't it? For example, in the Bible, there is a term nephesh.

Nephesh means neck brief only neck and brief. And theologians translated it as soul, but it doesn't mean soul. It means neck.

So person breathing.

Thank you. Thank you to you, Alex. I will hand it back to you now. All right, well, gratitude tomorrow to you for your time. Your scholarship, your great effort, your generosity, and also to Elizabeth and Sebastian, who are behind the scenes, who also make this possible.

Yes, thank you very much for accepting our invitation. Well, this is not only fascinating and interesting, this is a very important and very urgent topic. I think that with respect to the topic, but also with respect to what we did today, it's very important that we give us permission to talk, to talk about these things, about anything. And I think if we can talk about things, we can think those things, and then we can feel them, and then we can know them, and then we can talk again. So thank you.

Thank Paris center. Thank all of you who are here for just entertaining these thoughts. It's an obvious thing to say, but it's in danger of extinction. The ability to talk. Okay, thank you.

Thank you to you. Thank you to all. Thank you for having me with you. Bravo. Bravo.

Thank you. Thank you so much. Alex, this was wonderful. Thank you, Sebastian. Thank you.

Thank you, Mauro. Thank you, Sebastian. And thank you, Alex. And thank you, everybody that joined us today, and we look forward to seeing you at our next online event. Thank you.

Bye bye, everybody. Bye.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

Bold is a radical, how-to guide for using exponential technologies, moonshot thinking, and crowd-powered tools to create extraordinary wealth while also positively impacting the lives of billions.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity. That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

Episode Summary:

The document discusses the historical and theological nuances of the mass, particularly focusing on the concept of transubstantiation and its interpretations. The term "mass" has its origins in the Latin language, with interpretations varying from it referring to those sent on a mission, to the host (the consecrated bread) being sent. The term "host" is highlighted to mean victim, implying the delivery of a victim during the mass. The document deeply engages with the theological debates around the substance of the host, detailing arguments on transubstantiation, transfinalization, and trans signification, among others.

The author, Mauro Biglino, then navigates through the historical and linguistic journey of the term "Moloch" or "Molech," traditionally associated with a deity to whom child sacrifices were made. However, the document elaborates on the interpretation that "Molech" might not refer to a deity but to a type of sacrifice, the "molek" or "holocaust" in Phoenician, meaning a complete burning of the victim. The Hebrew language and its verb forms are explored to understand the term "Molech" better, suggesting that it refers more to the act of sacrifice itself rather than a specific god.

The document critiques the parallel between ancient sacrificial practices and the Christian mass, positing that the idea of consuming the flesh of Christ during the Eucharist is a form of sacred cannibalism similar to ancient rites. It mentions the psychological and communal aspects of mass gatherings, suggesting that the mass might also serve to create a shared sensation among the participants, likening it to a form of theophagy or sacred cannibalism.

Throughout the document, there is an emphasis on the need to understand these religious practices within their historical and linguistic contexts, urging a re-evaluation of traditional interpretations and beliefs. The document concludes by questioning the spiritual representation of the mass in light of its historical and anthropological origins, hinting at a need for a broader understanding of sacred texts and rituals.

  • The term "mass" and "host" have deep historical and linguistic roots, with implications for understanding Christian liturgy.
  • "Moloch" is traditionally associated with child sacrifice but may refer to the sacrificial act itself, not a deity.
  • Debates around the substance of the Eucharist (transubstantiation, transfinalization, etc.) reflect diverse theological interpretations.
  • Parallels are drawn between ancient sacrificial rites and Christian mass, suggesting a form of sacred cannibalism.
  • Understanding these religious practices requires a re-evaluation within their historical and linguistic contexts.

Good morning.
So, go, mass is over.
Ite missa est. Let's say that this statement is obviously one that we all know and which concludes the rite of the liturgy of human sacrifices.

Well, maybe things aren't like this, they wouldn't be like this.

of the mass in Latin, something that Benedict XVI, so to speak, more widely granted and this is added, within the same interpretation of the mass, the discussion relating to communion, that is, what happens to the host.

We know that we are talking about transubstantiation, that is, the Church says that the substance of the bread truly becomes the substance of flesh, that is, it truly becomes the flesh of Jesus Christ.

There are other theological interpretations which they have been discussing for years, for several years, even if this obviously takes place not for the benefit of the public but within, so to speak, the experts and we talk about transfinalization, that is, we say that in the moment to the human sacrifices already present in the Bible". The term mass which derives from Latin has had different interpretations, different interpretations, according to some it derives from missi which means those who were sent, it could indicate the fact that the catechumens who originally participated at that rite, when it was time for the sacrifice, they were sent away because they could not assist, or missi could have been those who were sent on a mission, let's say on an apostolic mission, or missa was the host, that is, the fact that the host, therefore the bread, the consecrated bread, had been sent, that is, it had been brought to be delivered to those who had not had the opportunity to participate in the common rite and therefore consumed the consecrated bread elsewhere.

However, I already remember an important fact because then we need it to understand afterwards that host means victim of therefore what is delivered is the victim.

Speaking of victim we all have in mind the term Molok which would indicate a divinity to whom, in a particular way, they were offered another provision of Benedict XVI annulled it by prohibiting the celebration in Biblical Hebrew. I will try to do it in the most concise way possible, so that it is clear why, I repeat, it is then functional to the next part which is the really interesting part. So now let's go and see. So now let's see how verbs are treated in Hebrew precisely to represent, And now we see how this mass, that is, the modern mass, is closely linked others speak of trans signification, that is, a change in meaning of what is then consumed by the faithful, still others say that trans finalization, trans signification are within trans substantiation. We know that Luther spoke of consubstantiation, Calvin still had a different vision so in reality, as I said before, the divisions
within the Church are really many also in relation to the interpretation of the culminating event, because the culminating event is the sacrifice of Jesus Christ who is renewed, shared with the faithful who then must also consume his flesh.

because in fact, as all the statistics now say, the Churches are emptying and if they are emptying it is not due to external attacks, that is, it is not the fault of those who, so to speak, criticize the Church from the outside. The Churches are emptying because the Roman Church is imploding due to problems within it and Francis' motu proprio, Traditionis Custodes, has effectively canceled Sunday, we know it means go because mass is over. It would also be easy to make a joke in the sense that I'm thinking of that Venetian parish in which the parish priest has posted a sign saying mass suspended due to lack of faithful.

Now we are going to read a very authoritative source. However, in order to fully understand the possible true meaning of Moloch which then refers us to the modern mass, it is necessary, I ask permission to do so, for me to give you two very brief indications on the way in which verbs are handled in the Hebrew language, in the way in which verbs indicating actions were constructed of the consecration actually changes the purpose of the host, it does not change the substance.

as I was saying, the intentionality of the action, the aspect of the action. verb that we are examining in relation to the mass, so that we do not forget, we are talking about Molok, even better in Phoenician Molk and in Hebrew now we find Molech and so here so, let's say, we close the circle. Semitic at the Sapienza University of Rome, has dedicated studies to this aspect and to this term and tells us a whole series of interesting things.

Now, obviously I will spare you all the philological analysis because it is really, in short, for super enthusiasts, but let's come to the conclusions which are the ones that interest us for the connection with the Mass. So, in the meantime he tells us that the Hebrew molech that we are now going to read, i.e. the Phoenician molech, was transposed by the Greeks, transliterated by the Greeks as molok and therefore became the divinity that we know.

But he says we can affirm that molek presents in Hebrew the Phoenician meaning of holocaust, that is, it does not indicate a divinity. qatal form is killing in its simplest aspect.but it indicates the sacrificial act, that sacrificial act which consisted in completely burning the victim to transform it into smoke which then went upwards and not for symbolic reasons, we have already seen it several times but because that smoke was particularly liked to the Elohim that, as written several times in chapter 28 of the book of numbers, that smoke calmed them, in particular it is Yahweh who says it, that is, the biblical Elohim. Professor Carbini cites in particular Jeremiah 32-35 and the second book of Ages.

Now let's go and see them so we can better understand his reasoning which leads us to have another meaning of Moloche and to link it to our current mass.

In Jeremiah 32-35 It is said that they built the Then there is the octal form, which is the passive of this, that is, he was killed. And then there is the last form, the seventh, which is it cattel, which is the form, let's say, intensive reflexive, he is killed with particular violence, therefore he committed suicide in a particularly gruesome way. Here, don't worry, it's not that you have to remember these things here, you'll see that now everything becomes clear, what interests us is this, that is, this shape here, the a stone falls on him, this stone hits a passerby and kills him, so here's the thing But things may not be that way.

Professor Garbini, professor of philology violence, killed vehemently, massacred, slaughtered. Then there is the Kuttal form, which is the passive of this, he was killed with, he was killed with vehemence. Then there is the Iktil form, which is said, is called the active causative form, that is, he caused to be killed, therefore causative. that is, he was killed. Then there is the third form, which is called Kittel, which is the intensive form and which here already represents intentionality. that is, killed with The first verbal form is called qatal and conventionally the paradigm is always rendered with the third person
singular of the perfect tense therefore it means killed, killed in the simple form i.e. without intentionality, therefore
a person is working in ancient Israel on the construction of his house, he is found on top, We sometimes use paraphrases etc., however in Hebrew there are changes in the roots.

So, to give an example, let's use the verb kill, it is also often used in grammars, among other things perhaps not by chance because killing is a particularly widespread verb in the Bible. let's not forget, however, that we are talking and we are clarifying, trying to clarify, the discussion relating to Moloch and therefore now we see these verbal forms.

As regards, I repeat as an example, let's choose the verb kill. Now let's see what a very authoritative source says about this. Molok is precisely the, as he is known, as the God to whom human sacrifices were offered, in particular children and therefore there was this God Molok.

Then there is the The second form in which it occurs is the Niktal, which is the passive of heights of Baal in the valley of Ben Inom, and this Baal was Baal Amon, to pass their sons and their daughters through the fire in honor of Moloch." active causative form. This means that Molech originally designated exclusively the Molch or rather the Phoenician Moloch and the passage of the name from a sacrificial term, that is from a term that simply indicated the sacrifice, the passage of the name from a sacrificial term to a divine name was made subsequently".

So in in reality here we are talking about sacrifices made to the various Baals, including obviously Yahweh who certainly did not do without them. and in another of his works Professor Garbini explains this correlation says, corresponds exactly to the Phoenician form Moloch which is the participle in the the Greeks did. the molk sacrifice of Phoenician origin. Here is where the term Moloch appears in the Bible, in the translated Bible and perhaps in the translated Bible, let's say with the conditioning of that transliteration which which we are talking about between Moloch and the Christian mass.

The conception of Christian sacrifice and especially its manifestation in the liturgy of the Catholic mass reveal profound and precise structural affinities with king where it is said that they made their sons and daughters pass ba esh lam molek, it is written and here the term molek appears, not the term molok which instead appears in translations and which appears in the
Greek Bible Phoenician molk, which is the passive participle, this form here of the verb ala' which means to send upwards,
to send, and obviously through the sacrifices they sent upwards this smoke which the Elohim really liked, which the divinities of I would say generally on planet Earth.

Let us first of all remember the sacrifice, that massacre that Noah commits when he returns to dry land and actually amasses dozens of animals taken from who knows where, look, certainly not from the ark, he burns them and therefore to create a large column of smoke, a molek, a sacrifice through which one sends one upward The same Latin term missa which, he says, refers to ostia and I remember that ostia in Latin means victim, is simply the simple translation of the word The same thing is said in the second book of kings, in chapter 23 in verse 10, where it is said that Josiah, the king of Judah, made Tophet, that is, that sacred place, which was in the valley of Ben-in-Nom, impure.

Made pure in the sense of his own, he also had it destroyed, so that no one would let their son or daughter pass through the fire in honor of Moloch". But what is actually written in the Hebrew Bible? Let's read directly , since the two passages are the same, we read only one, we read the one from the second book of made precisely from these passages that we have just read, tells us that the explicit mention of the deity Baal makes the interpretation of Molech as the name of the sacrifice, not the name of a deity, safe. And then he tells us yet another interesting thing which, in confirmation of this, we have precisely the testimony of the Greek version, that is, the one which reports Moloch instead and says that it corresponds exactly to the Phoenician form Moloch which is a participle in the passive causative form, which is why I have explained all these things, so in the causative form passive of that verb, so in reality it is not the name of a divinity but it is the participle, in this particular form, of a verb and therefore indicates the name of the sacrifice. which perhaps influenced the translations and contributed to creating this idea of the existence of this divinity called Molò when in reality the divinity for whom in this case they had their children burned, for whom they had their children burned was Baal Amon or, as Yahweh himself says in another passage of the Bible, it was Yahweh who burned them when, he himself says, and I gave them orders for which they could
not live when I forced them to pass their firstborn through the fire.

Professor Garbini, in his examination the victim. Let us think of the same Sumero-Akkadian Noah who does the same thing and who, the Sumero-Akkadian texts tell us, once this hecatomb is burning the and so on. I talked about it in the books where I made parallels between the Bible and the Greek texts, it is talked about in the texts of the Far East, Strabo talks about it with regards to the Celts, the stories relating to the Central and South American civilizations talk about it, so in reality this was very widespread but the interesting thing is We must understand, we must honestly accept and admit that it is exactly the same thing, it is sacred cannibalism and there is something that is sent.

Now, many interpretations are possible regarding this something that is sent, I said before which ones related to those who were sent sent out at the moment in which the sacrifice was celebrated etc. however, you know, it is also said that when there is an assembly of many people it creates something that is sent and this is one of the interpretations that is added to the others .

I represent it to you as it is described but I am also sure that many of you have tried it, so much so that, for example, it is said that one thing is... let's leave religion for a moment... watching a sporting event or I don't know, listen to a singer on television. Another thing, from the point of view of perhaps all these assemblies within which these rites were celebrated also served and can also serve to create something else that is sent and that is used and it is not a question of magic, it is a question of something what Professor Garbini does, this direct relationship this is the mass, that is, the sending of the host, therefore it is clear that if this host, this victim, as the Church says through the doctrine of transubstantiation, is truly the flesh of God , here we are talking, without any shadow of a doubt, about theophagy, that is, about believers who eat their God or, if you prefer, about sacred cannibalism". sensations, emotions, what you feel, but what you feel almost on a physical level, it means actively participating, that is, being present in that rite, be it a sporting rite or a singing rite, because something is created there , that is, you experience different sensations. of physique.

I myself experienced it in the ten years of conferences when I always traveled alone and often drove for many hours, for example when I gave conferences in central Italy, Umbria rather than Marche, and therefore perhaps I drove alone for 6-7 hours, 8 hours and I arrived an hour or two before the conference, I often arrived even a little tired let's say, but as soon as I started meeting people, especially when I entered the room and gave the conference there was something not magical, but a something that almost physically charged me, so much so that I was able to go on talking for hours and hours and hours". Well, perhaps this is the meaning of the assemblies that are created and that were created for these rites, they also had precisely this aspect.

And perhaps this is also the aspect that has been lost, the reason why people no longer, in quotes, feel the Mass, because perhaps these sensations are no longer created. And this is perhaps also the reason why the traditionalists would still like the Latin Mass, the one that I said at the beginning the Pontiff prohibited, because in the Latin Mass they perhaps seemed to sense something that in the Mass celebrated, in the language understandable to all, perhaps is not created more.

Now, anthropologists describe to us these forms of rite, theophagy or sacred cannibalism among different populations, let's say so-called primitive, located in various parts of planet Earth and when we read about these stories Well, I can't tell you exactly whether things are really like this but the suggestion is very strong. the fact remains, the fact remains that, if what the Church says is true, here we are faced with exactly as in ancient civilizations, exactly as in the stories of populations scattered across various parts of the earth, we are faced with a rite in which the faithful physically eat the flesh of their God. Anunna or Anunnaki come attracted by the smoke as flies are attracted by the flesh we tend to look with a bit of disdain and instead we tend to represent in a spiritual way, in a higher way, what happens within the liturgy of the Mass.

Bye, thanks, see you next time.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships.

In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

Episode Summary:

Clif High's "Sister Christian," dated November 29, 2023, encapsulates a blend of personal anecdotes, philosophical musings, and predictions about societal and religious transformations. The narrative commences with High recounting routine activities before delving into deeper subjects involving the Elohim and the interpretation of religious texts.

He engages with various individuals, including rabbinical students and a woman he refers to as Sister Christian, discussing the misinterpretations of religious doctrines. High emphasizes the discrepancies between religious teachings and their original texts, particularly focusing on the misinterpretation of the term 'Elohim' and how it has been historically mistranslated as 'God.'

The core of the discussion revolves around Sister Christian, a devout Christian woman struggling with the revelations about her faith. High narrates how she's been lied to about her Christian beliefs, which were based on misinterpretations of Jewish teachings. Despite her devotion, she realizes the discrepancies in her beliefs when confronted with the actual meanings of religious texts.

High underscores the importance of independent research and critical thinking, highlighting how Sister Christian represents a minority willing to challenge her beliefs. He criticizes the majority who prefer comfort over truth, labeling this attitude as intellectual cowardice.

The narrative then shifts to broader predictions about societal changes. High forecasts a 'hyper novelty' phase, beginning in 2024, characterized by widespread awakening and realization among people about their delusional beliefs, especially among Christians. He predicts this awakening will lead to a 'great global revolution' as people start questioning long-held beliefs and systems.

High also discusses the potential impact of increasing UFO activities on religious communities, speculating that these events will challenge traditional beliefs and force people to confront the limitations of their understanding.

As the document concludes, High envisions a reorganization of human social order, questioning the future existence of institutions like the UN. He anticipates profound changes, driven by the collective realization of delusional beliefs and the pursuit of factual reality.

Sister Christian - 11-29-2023

Hello, humans. Hello, humans. Heading outbound again. Got all of my chores done.

Everything went reasonably okay today. I mean, I got everything I needed and was able to meet with those people that I needed to meet with to drop off documents and crud. So it was an okay trip into town. It now I'm stuck behind some oversized loads heading slowly out to the coast. It's a double wide trailer, I think.

Yes, double wide trailer. Both pieces moving now.

They're going to really go slow as we get on this one road, which is all very mountainous, up and down, twisty, that kind of thing. Anyway, so the whole thing about the Elohim really has some interesting ramifications. All right, so I've talked to some kids that were I don't know how old they are because I haven't met them. This is online. Some kids that are rabbinical students studying to be rabbis, and they were giving me a ration of shit about some stuff, and then I basically told them, don't be deluded by the power structure you're trying to ease into.

Right? Go and actually look at this stuff and examine it. The one guy actually was honest enough to come back, and he said, yeah, you're right. He said, yes, all of the things you're saying about the actual language is true. And, oh, yeah, these teachers of ours, they know.

So just rather interesting. Also ran into this woman who I just really hate to have the conversation with her because I'm not out to destroy anybody's faith or anything. But my approach is that if you tell me that this book was written by God or divinely inspired, blah, blah, blah, I will read it to see basically what the hell you're talking about. Could this be? And when I go ahead and do that, and when I read it and it says one thing and you're telling me something else, well, we've got an issue.

So I was talking to this woman who her handle was like a sister Christian, right? She's one of those people that you'll see standing out in front of post offices and stuff with the little brochures to hand out on whichever Christian sect she's a member of. And I got to be honest and say, I just don't remember. Right. She told me, but I don't remember.

It wasn't like any of those that 7th day Adventist or something that I might at a major national level anyway, though. And she was saying, okay, she'd heard my discussion about the Elohim and wanted to know. It really piqued her curiosity, and then she starts delving into it, and she's been doing it for the last couple of months, and so she's very conflicted at the moment and so had corresponded with me, and it's like, I'll do anything I can help to soothe and ease the situation. But, you know, the facts of the matter are that she's been lied to all of her life. She's in her 50s been lied to all of her life about her Christian faith.

And mostly I'm of the opinion the people that lied to her were being quite honest. That's their belief system. They did not know that they were being deceived by the language and the power structure and all this history that goes back to the last Kali Yuga even before that. So these people, they don't know, they think there actually is a word for God in the Old Testament. They do not know that Elohim is the word that's being translated as God and El Yon is the phrase that's being translated as God most high, which is really a name those words don't translate.

He was an El and his name was El Yon and he was the head of the whole invading. Anyway, you know, she's got to come to terms with this and it is a real struggle for her and I understand why it's a struggle. I would not want to be in her shoes there. I don't know how she's going to reconcile it. I have some real sympathy for her and told her that her big deal was have I wasted these decades of my life being a Christian?

And in my viewpoint, no. A person of faith, it does not matter to me anyway. It makes little difference what that faith is attached to as long as that faith is moral, honest and good, et cetera, right? So just because you're deceived into worshipping one of the GMO humans, because you were told that this GMO human was in fact God incarnate on our planet, the fact that you were deceived does not make your faith or emotion in my viewpoint. It doesn't detract from it at all.

Then she's saying, well, what's she to do now? And I keep telling her on the other side of all the lies is the Creator God, which I just happen to use the term universe. So I'm as inoffensive as possible when I talk to people that could be offended by what I'm about to tell them, right? When I do run into them, I tell them this stuff. Some of them just shut down, some of them totally ignore me and some of them freak out calling me a blasphemer and all of this kind of stuff, which I'm not the blasphemer, you are the ignorant deluded for not actually going and checking this shit anyway though.

So Sister Christian has a real problem and her problem is reconciling her 30 plus years of serious devotion as a Christian to the facts that underlie that Christian belief as it has been misinterpreted from the Jewish structure that is its origin. And so she's trying to come to terms with all of this and she grants me that. And I think she got some level of solace from understanding that the Creator God isn't going to give her shit for being deluded and worshipping a GMO human, right? The Creator God has no anger, no anonymity to any of this. The Creator God doesn't care that you're deluded and it'll all work out right.

And so you haven't been a bad person for having been deluded the people that deluded you. I am of the opinion that they were also not bad people because they didn't know. They were just not inclined to do this. So this comes back to we had a long discussion. Sister Christian and I went into some deep, deep, deep religious shit, and in the end she comes back and she agrees with me that, well, this is all overlay.

It's basically a coating, a delusional, kind of a frosting on everything. But there is a true creator God on the other side of these delusional religions anyway, so we'll see how she does. She's got, as I say, some real issues. She's sort of been coming out of this over these last few weeks and getting a handle on it, but it brings up the issue of the research. Okay?

So as I pointed out to Sister Christian, she is one of the few, okay, she's one of that 20% that'll go and do her own research regardless of having been mentally captured by all of this. And she was actually told to not research any of this by her pastor fellow. This was back a number of months and she just said, well, obviously I can't do that and you're not doing me any service by telling me to not research it and stay diluted. And then she goes and researches it. And now she can't go back to that fellowship that she had in that conclave of Christians that she was associated with because the pastor knows that she knows the truth.

And so she's been forbidden from showing up. And she went back one Sunday because she enjoys the fellowship and so on and was not permitted in the door. And there was a big kerfuffle. And she said that really put the nail on the coffin, put the kibosh on the whole deal. Because she understood how this pastor dude was too scared to alter his life by investigating this shit and learning it for real.

Because what would happen to him if he discovered that he was aiding people in delusions? And she said that it really sealed it for her, that he was totally blocking all this out and he wanted to stay deluded and she could not. And that's when I told her, well, this is where you got to start getting into the woo because obviously, universe, aka Creator God, wants you to have this understanding, wants you to go through this, wants you to come out the other side. And so therefore, as I was telling her, in my opinion, you will come out on the other side and you will be better for having had this journey. I always have this little thing in my head.

There's a song about it. If you want to play the blues, you got to pay your dues, right? And so this is like in order to come to the understanding there's no way of getting around it, you must have that long night of the soul where you're just totally examining everything and there's just nothing there for you. Now, in my opinion, again, as I told this woman, I think that she is intended for other bigger things because of when she's encountering this, because she's coming into this long night of the soul and is going to go through this into the valley of the death kind of thing, because she's actually having to kill off her religion in order to discover her relationship with divinity, life, and the Wu. Right.

And herself. And so this truly is a death she's involved with and a mourning and the whole thing. She's mourning the loss of everything that went that was associated with believing in this delusional aspect of things. Right. Anyway, so I suspect that she'll be when hyper novelty happens and all these other people start, especially those in her conclave who know her, blah, blah, blah, they'll contact her and she will be there.

Having gone through this, she can say, this is what you're going to have to encounter. This is what's going on based on experience, right? So 80% of the people are like her pastor. They would prefer to be comfortable and will never examine any of this shit because of the fear of what it would lead to, right. Which would be their changing.

They would have to change radically, dramatically, et cetera, in order for that to just as a result of pursuing it and they don't want to do it. I think of them as exhibiting intellectual cowardness, but I understand, right? I'm not getting down on them at all for that. But what I am leading up to is this idea that Sister Christian here is going to have a shitload of work come hyper novelty, because there's going to be tons of people that are in her situation that will be seeking assistance any place they can get it, as she got it from me. So she was initially oh, man, it was just a terrible, terrible, terrible email she sent me in.

She since apologized for it, but she was basically unloading everything on me, like I say, calling me blasphemer and all this kind of shit, right? But anyway, so the two of us are beyond that. And we know that she's in progress and has had progress and is in the process of reconciling all of this. And as I pointed out to her, because she's going through this over these past few months, every time I have an opportunity, I point out something along the way that can serve as a marker for her, for when she encounters others also seeking assistance. She'll be able to say what will trigger for her will be these various milestones along this particular night of the soul.

And she'll say, oh yeah, I was there. And when I was at this point that you're at now, this is how I dealt with it. And so I think we will have some level of progression there because universe is activating. These people ain't me, right? As I tell Claude, you know, we can say, say, but if they're not willing to hear, hear, hear, nothing's going to happen.

So now I know that universe is actually actively participating in our current state of affairs because it is making people hear. It is making people come across and find my stuff, right. Then they're grossly offended. And in some cases they're so offended it shocks them. And she wrote me this email, and then I basically sent an email back to her as kind as I possibly could and came to my conclusion on that email was prove me wrong.

And so she goes to prove me wrong, and of course she can't. And that's what started the whole process where she came back and said, oh gee, oh gee, oh, what's happening here? They lied to us, it's blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And so she's got friends in our wu community that have aided her somewhat. But it's still a personal struggle that you have to deal with on an individual basis.

No one can take away the pain. No one can reconcile it for you. You will have to do it yourself. And there's billion Christians that are going to be coming to this understanding over the next few years. Now we're just going to get into the hyper novelty early next year.

And maybe we'll hit 1,000,000th of a percent of the Christians will start coming to this understanding this time next year. A millionth of a percent, a very small number out of the billions of Christians. And so I expect that, that billions of Christians will take a number of years. And then they'll reach a breaking point, a shatter point where the glass wall of the delusion that is reflecting back their ideas to them shatters, and they see it was there, and they look through it and see themselves and see for themselves what's going on. And so that I think will take years and years and years, decades, just because of the nature of humans and all this stuff that's got to go on.

At some point though, you reach this shatter point. It's a threshold when there's a certain number of the population that is thinking a particular way that is new to them. But and so they're talking about it more and so on, then the rest of the normie herd will rapidly try and also think that way. They'll try and also get in with this because they sense that this is the developing trend that's going to drive, not drive things, but that's going to pull things in a particular direction. And so that shatter point might be four years out right?

And when it happens then we'll see a vast number change relatively quickly. So I'm expecting on stuff like politics that we're going to pass a shatter point here in this splits happen period, right? So between now and say the end of January and we're going to have a shatter point in which everybody, all the normies that have been disbelieving, that have been buying the Dementia Joe regime and all of that as legit and all that kind of stuff are just going to rapidly move away from the media. And we're seeing things now in terms of the talk show hosts not doing their talk shows and this kind of thing, various different kinds of economic indicators coming out of the media companies that all is not well and that absent government subsidies these guys are fucked. They would just collapse.

So if there weren't government subsidies in England you wouldn't have any of the tabloids, you wouldn't have the Daily Mail, you wouldn't have any of these things that are out there, especially all of those that know premier mainstream media attempting to become authorities or be authorities on things, right? And so absent government subsidies these things go away. And once they go away very rap, they'll go away very rapidly. That's going to leave a gap. It'll leave like a vacuum, information vacuum that will have to be filled and of course it'll just suck in all the people out of the woo.

So it's going to be a very interesting few years. The hyper novelty will include in 2024 the great global revolution. The GGR. The great global revolution is also sort of like the Christians and it's also involved in that sense as people evolve away from the delusions and start looking at some level of factual reality around them and a lot of these people will get into a revolutionary mindset oh this is a bunch of horseshit. We've had all this stuff for 6000 years and it's time to change it and so we will be doing that.

But the hyper novelty is not restricted to the great global revolution and in fact the GGR is to a certain extent it's an outgrowth of the hyper novelty, a primary symptom so to speak. So going to be very chaotic as we go through winter and even more so into spring. And then we'll hit like I say, somewhere around in mid the first part of the month of April, midweek that first week. And then that in my opinion is the shatter point. A lot of the Wu people say it's here, we're doing things, we're dealing with it and they're starting to deal with more and more normies that are involved.

And then by the time we get into June lots and lots of the normies like Sister Christian are standing up to help other normies come on over to the Wu side and it's going to be just fascinating to see this play out. Not necessarily a good thing, not going to be a quiet time, very dynamic, all different kinds of bad shit happening everywhere. But in my opinion, the general trend is on the up, right? And we're just bouncing along the bottom, so to speak, using an economic analogy. And we're about to enter into a bull market and head way up.

Anyway. So getting back to Sister Christian and her situation that it is a fact that most people won't do their own research and that the 80% of the populace is basically ready to just go along, to get along.

In a way, it AIDS her as we go forward because she's not going to have the pressure of them on her until she's come out of that walk through the Valley of Death and can point out the signposts and stuff to the people behind her. It's just the way this ship works. And so in my opinion, she's like maybe she's 60% through the valley and will be having a better time. She's already having a better time than she did two months ago and is starting to reconcile herself to the situation and understands to some extent anyway, whether she's agreeing with it or not. My perspective that universe desired that we all go through this.

It's not a conflict for me to say that universe, the creator God, wanted humans to become very good at contention. And it brought in my opinion, the elohim here to humanity such that we would get these lessons in a way that you can't get these lessons any other way. And so this is a key component to Woo ness over the mainstream media is that most or a lot of the woo people are speaking from experience, right? We've had the walk through the Valley of Death, we've seen the Woo and it's shocked us. We've seen stuff that isn't explainable by the MSM or the current Naradigm.

And so we investigate and so on. We're part of that 20% that goes on out and checks shit out for ourselves. And this is just the way that humanity is constructed. We will never get to the point where that 80% is going to be as I am. That 80% will never ever be self referential and self seeking.

They'll always be guided from the outside just because of the nature of humanity and where we are at within the universe. But anyway, so Sister Christian does grasp that God moves in mysterious ways. And those things are so mysterious that they might have a six or 10,000 year timeline. And within that period of that six or 10,000 years, there's going to be a lot of misdirection, dead ends, cul de sacs, this sort of thing, bad decisions because it is necessary that we make those in order to see that they're bad.

Basically, it's feedback. You need the qualification, you need the feedback coming in in order to be able to make a choice as to what to do and universe desires things to be done because we're the doers in the body. So anyway, best of luck to Sister Christian. She's probably going to end up, as I say, doing Yeoman's work here with all of the people that she used to hang out with in her church who will at some point be facing this as well, dealing with this stuff as well. Now, in my opinion, a lot of the angst and problems that will be triggered for Christians, Jews, and Muslims will be due to the major increases in UFO activity that we're seeing now that will seriously escalate in 2024.

And just the mere fact that these UFOs are buzzing around and that our military is freaked out is going to cause language that will have to force itself, that will have to intrude on those minds that recognize, or that will be made to recognize that their understanding is delusional. Or they won't think of it that way to start with, but they'll think of it as, okay, there's something not right here, there's something that I'm missing that didn't get worked out right and so on.

Well, it's going to be chaotic. Lots and lots of people are going to freak out. I don't know how bad it's going to be. A lot of unstable minds might do unstable things as a result of this. So I'm not ruling that kind of stuff out.

But all things considered, this aspect of hyper novelty and the stuff that's going to beset the Christians is really okay. So that's a big problem for everybody. But it's not as big a problem as what's going to happen to the Jews and what's going to happen to the military and officialdom as we go forward into 2024. So I'm actually looking for pretty much a general reorganization of the whole of the human social order. Yeah, it's an easy thing to say, but it's going to be very difficult for us to accomplish this.

We'll see an entirely different structure. Will the UN still exist two years from now? Maybe not. It's going to be that profound and that deep. Anyway guys, I got to stop here and do some stuff.

So that'll be it for this one and we'll pick up as I have an opportunity.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

Bold is a radical, how-to guide for using exponential technologies, moonshot thinking, and crowd-powered tools to create extraordinary wealth while also positively impacting the lives of billions.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity. That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com. This report covers your future world from July 2016 through to 2031.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

4th Turning

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

The Prophecy of Planet Earth - 11-01-2022

Episode Summary:

Elizabeth April discusses a profound prophecy concerning Earth's significance in the universe, as relayed to her by the Galactic Federation. She begins by asserting Earth's unique role, aiming to remind viewers of their purpose and cosmic identity. April mentions her intention to help viewers remember their essence and the broader meaning of existence, questioning humanity's place in the cosmos and our interactions with extraterrestrials.

She introduces an ancient prophecy, millions of years old, predicting a hybrid species that would end the greatest cosmic war. This species, a mix of high and low vibrational DNA, would be influenced by the oldest beings in the universe. Despite skepticism over time, Earth's creation rekindled hope in this prophecy.

April describes the Draconians (Reptilians) as Earth's early rulers during the dinosaur era, who were later joined by the Anunnaki seeking Earth's resources. The Anunnaki, advanced creator beings, created humans to mine resources, which caught the Galactic Federation's attention due to the rare collaboration between high-level Anunnaki and low-level Reptilians.

The Galactic Federation, upholding universal laws, closely monitored this creation, linking it to the ancient prophecy. They invited other species to contribute DNA to humans, making Earth a "prophecy planet." April suggests that at least 20 to 30 extraterrestrial species have mixed with human DNA, with Earth under close observation to ensure compliance with cosmic regulations.

April shares a remote viewing experience of Ancient Egypt, where she saw Galactic Federation ships decreeing an end to direct extraterrestrial influence over humans, marking a significant shift in our development.

The Prophecy of Planet Earth - 11-01-2022

Elizabeth April

Hello, beautiful beings, and welcome back to another Live. This is an extra special live. I'm trying to figure out my camera Extra Special Live, because I don't know, I think this is probably the most important video I will probably ever do. And I've talked quite bit about Earth's Prophecy just in videos prior I've mentioned it, and I thought I really dedicated a video to it until I searched the website and realized that the only dedication that I've done to explaining in full Earth's Prophecy was actually in a lecture that I did a couple years ago. So I was madly writing all the information down right before this.

And so I came on a little bit late because there's a lot it gives me full body chills to be able to relay this information to you. I would say my intention today in relaying the information would be to help you remember who you are, why you're here, and really what the point of all of this is. One of the original questions I had when I first started to go into deep states of transmeditation was exactly that. Who am I? But even beyond that, who are we?

Why are we here? Why are extraterrestrials even bothering with us? What is the point of this? Are we an experiment? Are we something special?

Or are we truly just a third dimensional antlike species existing among many others in the universe? And what I want to start with is this planet is one of the most important planets in this entire universe. And, yeah, that sounds like an absolutely crazy loaded statement to make, but it's true. And today I am about to lay out exactly why I believe that is the case. And yeah, hang on to your Tukes.

Had to throw in a Canadian thing there. All right, yeah, before I get into it, it's a lot of information, so I would say don't even bother getting out your notebooks. I think that this is a video where you just need to sit back, let it all sink in. As always, if it resonates with you, it's for you. If not, don't worry about it.

It's not for you at this time, and that is totally okay. Okay. So before I go into it, as always, please be sure to give this video a thumbs up. Subscribe to the channel if you do enjoy this sort of content and share. This is definitely a video that you want to be sharing across your social media networks because this is going to speak to every old soul.

This is going to speak to every star seed out there. This is probably going to explain more than, once again, any other video I've done. This is a full overview of exactly what planet Earth is and who we are and how we came to oh, it just gives me so many chills. All right, two announcements. One, we've got new merchandise that just dropped, so please either Estelle or Lauren.

Link it in the live chat, link it in the comments below. Pin that comment and then also put it in the description for those of you who are not live watching this. So, yeah, check it out. I really do myself love the merch. So really we wanted to get it for people who are going to the conference coming up because everyone at the conference was like, how do we know?

We're all EA fans. And we figured, why not just allow everyone to buy a T shirt and then we're together. Also, I want to say that the T shirt has the word team on it. And for a very long time I've been wondering what to call my community. And there's a lot of other spiritual teachers and even musicians who have a name for their community.

But what I don't like about having a name for the community is that it always feels like it's the community and then it's the musician, the celebrity, the teacher. And I just don't like that. I just don't like feeling separate. So I figured, why not call everyone my team, right? Because that implies that we're all in this together.

You guys are my teammates. We are a team. And yeah, maybe I'm the captain of the team, but we're together in this. That's kind of what I want to call you guys. Not that I'm going to use that reference too much, but I really do like that concept of us being a team, you guys being my teammates.

And I couldn't do this without you, you can't do this without me. And together we're shifting the world, right? This is not just not an individual sport. It really isn't. And it really helps that the letters EA are right in the middle of team.

So that's kind of fun, too. All right, cool. And then last announcement is I hope to see a lot of you in Las Vegas next week for the Stairway to the Stars conference. I'm so excited your day pass will get you into my workshop. So I think I have a room of 300 and there might be I don't know how many people are going to show up, to be honest.

So, yeah, hopefully you line up for that. And I'll also be doing book signing and I will be selling, I think, some T shirts and giving away posters and all of that great stuff. And of course giving lots of hugs and taking lots of photos with all of you. So hope to see you there next week. Thank you so much, Doc Matthews, for that super chat.

Let's get into oh, it's look at this. Look at all my notes. All right. Okay, let's just start. So earth's prophecy.

Why are we special? What are we doing here? What's the point of all of this? What is this history? Who are we?

Here's? How it got started. This is what I was told back in 2011 and 2012 from the Galactic Federation when I asked them directly, why are we special? What is the point of humanity? What's going on?

Why are you extraterrestrials even utilizing your resources on us? Why? Right? Why would you do that? So here's what the information that was relayed to me.

Okay? So a very long time ago, like we are talking millions, if not tens of millions of years ago, there was an ancient mystic extraterrestrial who said that one day there would be a species who would end the war of all wars.

This species was meant to be the children of some of the oldest and most powerful species in the entire universe.

This species, this hybrid species, would have some of the highest and some of the lowest vibrational DNA within them.

The creators of this species would have a hand in indirectly influencing their creation.

For many, many centuries, this prophecy hung around the Galactic Federation. We're not just talking one mothership. All of the Galactic Federation throughout all of the universe knew in this prophecy that this ancient, very well known mystic had this vision that there was going to be this species once again to end the war of all wars. However, year after year, generation after generation, this prophecy went unfulfilled, and the hope in the hearts of so many began to fade. And eventually, after many centuries, that prophecy became more of a legend, more of a fable, really, that you would tell your galactic children that one day there will be that species that will help us all.

But once again, just a story, just a fable, not reality. Gives me chills. Until one day our solar system came into creation. And remember, these things take time, take a lot of time. So at first it seemed like really nothing special, other than the fact that this planet in particular, planet Earth, was able to house a variety of life forms.

But the diversity here was not unmatched by other planets. There are many other planets in the universe who can also house a variety of life forms and species. So once again, wasn't even on the radar of the Galactic Federation that this solar system and this planet was anything special for a very, very long time.

So then along come the Draconians, if you don't know, it's another word for the reptilians. There are many different subspecies of reptilian Draconians, and there's many other words for them as well. And there's a variety of them. Some have wings, some have tails, some have no wings and no tails, and so on and so forth. Some are taller, some are shorter.

Anyway, so the Draconians arrive on planet Earth, and at that time, planet Earth was still in its infancy in a lot of ways.

Now, the Draconians basically ruled during the time of the dinosaurs, and they ruled for quite a long time. They were the most intelligent and technologically spiritually advanced species on planet earth for generations, and they lived hundreds of years, many generations. They ruled this was their domain, this was their planet. Okay, all right. Then along come the Anunnaki, because the Anunnaki needed some of the resources that were on planet Earth.

And you might have heard this before. There are ancient Sumerian tablets and even different ancient books. I don't know if it's the Book of Thoth. I haven't read any of these myself. I've just channeled and received this information.

But this has been documented. Eventually, the Anunnaki come to planet Earth to mine resources. And at first, it was just the Anunnaki who wanted to mine these resources. And then they realized that they didn't have enough of these Anunnaki beings to mine all of the resources that they needed from planet Earth. Not to mention, the Reptilians were not very happy that the Anunnaki were on their planet taking their resources, even though the Reptilians didn't have any need at all for gold.

They didn't really like the invasion. And it was a bit of a standstill, I would say, because the Anunnaki were extraordinarily more advanced than the Reptilians in so many ways. The Reptilians on planet Earth were very rudimentary. Yeah, they were way more advanced than, say, the dinosaurs who were here, but they were still quite rudimentary. And yes, they had technology, but still very rudimentary compared to these highly advanced creator beings, which is what some individuals refer to the Anunnaki as.

And I'm not even going to get into why they're called the creator beings. Anyway, so the Anunnaki said, okay, Reptilians, how about this? How about you help us mine this gold? And the Reptilians were like, no freaking way. You're on our planet.

We're not going to help you with this. If anything, we want something from you. And eventually, the Anunnaki decided to create a species of being. Now, they've done this before, so planet Earth and human beings were definitely far from the first being they've ever created. The Anunnaki have a very and now I'm going into why they're creator beings.

Before that, they had a very, very long history in creating other humanoid looking beings all across the universe. So some of the oldest species in the universe were actually created or at least assisted in their developmental evolution from the Anunnaki, such as the Pleiadians. Yep. You didn't know that, but now you do. The Pleiadians were actually created in part anyway, or at least assisted in their evolution by the Anunnaki.

And once again, the Anunnaki have had hand in many other beings. Now, the Anunnaki are a little bit irresponsible. They will create beings, typically for their own need, and then they will abandon those beings and move on. And over time, these beings grow and develop and flourish, and some of them die off, but some of them grow and develop and flourish and become Pleiadians, or humans as well. So here's what happened.

The Anunnaki took a foundation of DNA on planet Earth. They developed their own sort of being with those foundations. And now the Reptilians were really pissed off. They're like, whoa, whoa, whoa. So here you are coming to our planet, creating another species for mining our resources.

What are we getting out of this? And the Anunnaki said, well, I mean, if you wanted to, you could have some humans too, right? There are slaves. They could be your slaves too. Like, if you want to do something with them, you could.

And that is when the little light bulb went off with the Galactic Federation. So one of the main reasons or purpose of the Galactic Federation is to take the laws of the universe and ensure that every species, every civilization in the universe is abiding by those laws. So in that way, the Galactic Federation doesn't make up their own laws. They just abide by the laws of the universe, and they ensure that everyone else is abiding by them too. That being said, when a very highly advanced species like the Anunnaki decide to just create a new species somewhere in the universe, it's highly monitored and highly watched, right?

And there's many different kind of checks and balances and different councils that have discussions on, is this ethical? Is it breaking any of the laws? What is the kind of the future projection of this species? And so on and so forth. When they started to take a look at what the Anunnaki and what the Reptilians were doing here on planet Earth, this ancient lost old legacy, this prophecy, this fable came back around.

And the reason why the fable, the prophecy of the species created to end the war of all wars, the reason why that came up, the reason why that was triggered, is because it is very, very rare, very uncommon for such a low level species like the Reptilian and such a high level species like the Anunnaki to be working together. And yes, as a matter of fact, they have worked together in the universe before out there. Have the Reptilian, the Draconians, and the Anunnaki ever created a species together? Absolutely not. And so here we have the birthplace of human beings, but we also have the realization that this, this planet, this new budding civilization, this new budding species being created by the Anunnaki and the Reptilian, that this was going to be the birthplace of that civilization, of that species.

And so then the Galactic Federation said, okay, let's continue this. And that's when the GFL started asking other species to come to planet Earth and also mix their DNA with human beings. And it didn't take long before this rumor of the prophecy planet has been discovered. Gives me freaking full body goosebumps to take hold. And it wasn't long that they were asking for species, but all of the different civilizations, colonies, planetary systems, all were coming to the Galactic Federation to say, we want to be a part of this, if this is legit, if this is the real deal, we want in.

And so even the process to accept what species were going to be here to meld their DNA with us and how they were even going to splice their DNA and if it was even possible, the amount of testing that was done. Which is really kind of funny because the anunnaki were like, yep, we've done this before, we're going to do it again. And then the reptilian were a little bit different with how they a little bit more rudimentary, let's say.

And the Galactic Federation just went full scientific, like full steam ahead on the science behind it. So after that, a lot of the genetic manipulation that happened on planet Earth was done in a much more gentle way and a much more scientific way. So, for example, it would be more like petri dish type of stuff to ensure that it was correct. The Galactic Federation is very, very specific in genetic mixings. So a really good kind of maybe not a great example, but the closest example that I can think of is, like, dog breeds, right?

There are certain dog breeds that really should not be bred together. Very similar in the universe. There are different species that definitely should not be bred together. And the Galactic Federation oversees okay, okay, I'm just going to find where I left off. So I believe from what I've seen through remote viewing ancient history, I've seen a lot of timelines and time periods.

Of course, I haven't seen it all. It would be a lot to go over. But from what I've remote viewed, I believe that there are at least 20 plus, maybe 20 to 30 different species DNA mixed in with us. Okay, and thank you guys so much for those super chats. So 20 plus.

Now, ever since this was discovered as the prophecy planet, we have been so closely monitored. We have been incredibly monitored. Like, this whole planet's on lockdown. And anyone who wants to come in has to get approval. And I'll tell you this, and I'm sure you probably already know, there are many species who do not get approval, who just want to sneak in and either want to observe or actually want to test us without approval.

And then there are repercussions and consequences to those beings doing those things by guess who? Of course. The Galactic Federation. Right? Okay, I'm going to kind of skip ahead a little bit.

So a part of my curiosity and remote viewing on who we are and how this all unfolded and all the species that mixed with us and so on and so forth. And whatnot I want to tell you about a very specific, very powerful it's not a vision. It was just a remote viewing. It was just a piece of my remote viewing history. So I was remote viewing Ancient Egypt.

And what's really cool about remote viewing history or really like a lifetime, like a past life. And I learned this from past life regression, is that you can so I can be basically you're out of your body, you're in a location. So I could be taking a look at the pyramids of Giza, for example, and then I could say 100 years in the past, 2000 years in the past, 5000 years in the past, the next generation. I can skip through time just by setting that intention and then I'm there. So I was observing Ancient Egypt and I was just observing it being built and civilizations growing and expanding and all of the things.

And at a certain point in time there were these giant ships, okay? There was three of them. So here I am on the outskirts of Egypt by the Great Pyramids, and there are these huge ships. Like I'm telling you, they cast a shadow down to the ground that just covered all of Egypt. And I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, what's happening here?

And these were the Galactic Federation ships that came down over Egypt that basically told all of the species that were influencing human beings, this hybrid species. And they said, you can no longer be here anymore. You can no longer have influence over the humans anymore. Direct influence. Okay?

Now I want to mention that at that time, through many generations, ancient Egypt was actually being ruled, get this, by our creator beings. I'd love to call them Ma and PA, but really they were our creators. So who did we have here? This is what I've seen in my remote viewing visions. So in Ancient Egypt in particular, which I think something that's so powerful about Egypt is that it was truly a melting pot of all of the species and civilizations very similar to Atlantis and Lemuria.

But Egypt in particular, there were the Lyrins, there were the Blue Avians and other avian humanoid type species. Of course there were the Anunnaki that were influencing human beings. And of course there were the Reptilians who were also walking around along with the Pleiadians at that time, walking around and they were regarded as gods. And so there were different phases of each of these creator beings, each of these god like beings who were overseeing their creation and who all had a different role to play in our influence back in Ancient Egypt. And then of course in many other ancient sites all throughout the planet.

But that was one of the most significant moments of Earth's history. Is the Galactic Federation coming down pretty much demanding these orders. You can no longer be directly influencing human beings anymore. They need to be on their own. So guess what?

The Reptilians were like, whoa, whoa, whoa, no way. This is our planet. You can't tell us to get off of our planet. The humans were created after us and we are staying now. Up until this point the Reptilians were very much so.

I called them the managers of the humans, and they were not very nice to us at that time because in a sense, the reptilians felt an ownership over human beings. The Anunnaki, the Avians, the Pleiadians, the Lerins, they were like, okay, cool, yeah, no big deal. Like, we'll leave. Even the anunnaki who really originally created us or helped us take that evolutionary leap, they didn't care. They've left.

They've done this before. So, like, okay, peace out. Actually, they were like, we were going to leave anyway, so we must be getting out of here. The reptilians, absolutely not. At that time, some of them did indeed leave, but the majority of them stayed.

And so because they were, I don't want to say, like, legally bound to here or allowed to be here. Part of the law of the universe is, yeah, they had a right to be here, essentially. So there was a contract created between the galactic federation and the reptilian beings to say, okay, if you're going to be here, then you just cannot have a direct influence over human beings, and you cannot be seen by them. You are not allowed to be seen by the humans. So what did they do?

They went underground. Now, the reptilians are very used to living and being underground because over the years, over the many, many centuries, the planet has gone through quite a few different pole shifts. And every time there's a pole shift, there's usually some sort of cataclysm or multiple cataclysms that are incorporated within those pole shifts, whether it be crazy volcanic eruptions, massive earthquakes, huge flooding, melting of one polar region, and freezing of another, a new polar region, and so on and so forth. And the way that the reptilians have survived these crazy pole shifts throughout earth's history is to go underground. It's kind of their second home.

Think about alligators. How long have they been around for? A long ass time. Okay. I don't know.

They continue to survive. So they went underground, and it took a little while, but the reptilians decided, yeah, well, this is what's in our contract. We're not allowed to do this. But they never said anything about this. And that's when they decided to control us without being seen and without directly manipulating or directly controlling us.

And that's when they're like, oh, my god, look over here. You should be really scared of this thing. And we're like, oh, really? Okay, yeah, we're definitely going to be scared of that thing. Hey.

They're still abiding by the laws of the universe, and that's why what they've been doing has been allowed, is because they know the laws of the universe, they know the laws of karma, and they continue to get away with their actions because of that. And of course, they won't anymore, because, simply put, the vibrational frequency of the planet is going to literally either make them shift or kick them out. Right? There's no running from they can manipulate a contract, but they can't run from vibration, if that makes sense. Okay, I'm just going to go back to my notes.

They were all sent away. Reptilians were still here, sent underground. Okay, it's a lot, it's a lot. But hopefully this is vibing with you. Hopefully this is resonating or bringing something up in your little, your star seed soul.

Okay? So reptilians were manipulating covertly.

So when the Reptilians started to manipulate covertly, because this planet was known at that time as the prophecy planet, the Galactic Federation said there's nothing we can do about the Reptilians manipulating humanity. And the reason why is because, and I know it really sucks, but whatever, obviously they weren't abiding by they weren't crossing any of the laws of the universe, so the Galactic Federation couldn't say anything about that. But then also we were really their creation. The Reptilians were part of us. And the prophecy of this species to end the war of all wars, it states, and I said it here, that the creators of the species would have a hand in indirectly influencing their creation.

It was a part of the prophecy to state that the creators of this species were allowed to have an indirect influence of their creation. So here's where the Galactic Federation steps in with their own individual strategy. So they said, if we can't really do much about what the Reptilians are doing with this really powerful species, this hybrid species, then what can we do to offset that manipulation? And there was a large variety of things that the Galactic Federation strategized and implemented to try and get us back on the right track. And I'll give you an example of one of the biggest things that they did and then I'll tell you what they did that finally stuck.

I had a whole conversation with them and I think they gave me like four or five examples because I was really curious, but this is one of the ones that I remembered. So back in ancient lemeria and then ancient Atlantis, one of the Galactic Federation strategies was to give these hybrid beings all knowledge, okay? And when I mean all knowledge, it means that humans and I want to go humans at that time because they were more hybrids than, say, what we are today. A lot of our DNA has been kind of deactivated, in a sense. So back then, we were much more activated and we were allowed to be born into Ancient Atlantis and be born into Ancient lemuria with all of our soul's memories.

Which means that all technological advancements from the cosmos, all DNA strands, all things like telepathic abilities, even telekinetic abilities, understanding of energy, reincarnation, all of our information was accessible to us back at that time. Fantastic, right? Wrong. Here's what happened. Here's the problem with having access to all of the information and being stuck in a body and a planet that didn't necessarily have all of the same things that we have out there, especially atlanteans Lemerians, were much more, like, chill about their knowledge, much more sacred about their knowledge.

Atlanteans what happened was they wanted to advance very rapidly and they had no accountability because they were just essentially born with a silver spoon in their hand. Okay, I don't want to say they didn't have to work hard to gain access to that information, but they just took it and ran with it. And the problem with that is they wanted to advance and develop and move forward so quickly without any checks or balances, without any accountability, that basically they needed to be stopped.

And the Galactic Federation was like, well, shit, that was not the right thing to do, to give them everything, all knowledge, all information, all access to technology, because they were almost too powerful, too quickly without the accountability. That's what happened with Atlantis, okay? And I have actually a whole Atlantis video if you want to check it out on my website. And you want to know more about that.

Okay?

Yes. Another example of what the Galactic Federation tried to do over the years to help offset the manipulation from the reptilians was, and this is a really funny one, I personally felt like I laughed at this one, but maybe you won't find the same humor. So they sent angels, angelic beings down as messengers. Isn't that interesting? Doesn't that remind you of a couple of religious stories?

And the problem that's just so funny, the problem with sending angels down to give messages to human beings who have forgotten, right? I mean, like, Atlantis failed, so let them be born without any of their memories so that they can learn and develop and grow and figure it out on their own. And then when they do discover how powerful they are, they have responsibility and accountability and they understand consequence. Great, fantastic, right? But when you're sending angels down to a civilization who just really has no clue what's going on, this poor civilization is going to completely misinterpret the messages of angels and create religions around it.

So that failed too. One of the first things, one of the first Galactic Federation strategies that actually worked in helping humanity in a positive, powerful, high vibrational way, rather than the suppression and the mistreatment and the separation and the fear mongering that was coming from the reptilians is actually okay, and there was a couple more before that. Buddha was the original experiment, at least one of the original, and like I said, there were more before that as well. Buddha was one of the original experiments after Atlantis fell, where the Galactic Federation says, okay, well, we're trying with the messengers, we've tried to give all information. How about we take one of us and we actually volunteer to incarnate as a human being and give information that way?

Therefore we look like them, we talk like them, we act like them. But we have a higher frequency, which is going to unlock dormant aspects of our DNA, which is going to teach other humans that they can do this too. Guess who was the follow up from the Buddhist experiment? That's right. Good old Jesus bringing religion in again, right?

Jesus was probably one of the most well known experiments of galactic star seed incarnations that have ever existed. And what we fail to remember these days is that you and me are also these galactic volunteers choosing to be humans. The problem is that the first lifetime that you chose to be a human, all of that time ago, you're like, yes, you are so pumped up to help humanity shift into a higher frequency, give all the information, bring back your remembrance, and then really shit hit the fan. And it was really difficult to be a human. And it was very dense here, and there was a lot of emotion and confusion and misinterpretation of what you're trying to teach, and you got a little bit disappointed, and then you reincarnated again and got a little bit more disappointed and reincarnated again.

And then all of a sudden, you kind of gave up on your mission because you're like, Screw them, they're just not getting it. As a matter of fact, I'm getting killed every single time I try and change someone's mind.

And here we are. There's, like, a little side feature to this information. So finally, it was through the experimentation of galactic volunteers that the Galactic Federation finally understood how they could help, in an indirect way, this very highly prophesized planet Earth, and very highly prophesized species.

Okay, I have a couple more points that are really important.

Okay, so it was just about two years ago, so I did a bunch of remote viewing. I asked my questions to the Galactic Federation. I received all of that information. And then it was two years ago. Actually, I want to say it was more so, like, five years ago, maybe six years ago.

It was back in 2017. I remember I went up to the Galactic Federation mothership and I asked them directly, and I said, you know, I've never really thought about it, but once human beings choose and we're going to get to fast forward of what are we supposed to do here? Right? Like, what are we now as this hybrid prophesized species? What are we supposed to be here do here?

So I said, Once we become awakened, then what? How are we, the species to end the war of all wars? And they would not tell me. They would not tell me. They said, you are not meant to know right now.

And humanity is not meant to know right now. It wasn't until two years ago, so I want to say, like, maybe 2020, maybe 2019, maybe even 2021. Honestly, it's like, kind of a blur. But they finally told me, and it really blew my mind. Okay, so I always originally thought, upon hearing all of this information about our history and our development and the prophecy, I always thought that, okay, well, human beings have some of the highest and some of the lowest vibrational DNA in the entire universe in our body.

We have that in our body. And these incredibly powerful beings are our mothers and our fathers. They are our creators, right? In a sense. So I always knew that it was a choice.

It came down to a choice. And, yes, we could be indirectly influenced. However, it was up to us, and it still is. It's up to us and our own free will to choose what DNA we want to activate. Do we want to be greedy and selfish and do we want all knowledge and information and power and wealth and resources for ourselves?

Or do we want to choose unity? Do we want to choose working collectively together to better not just this planet, but the entire universe? What choice do we want to make? What DNA do we want to activate? I always knew that it was a choice, and I just figured, because they wouldn't tell me back in 2017, I just assumed that based on the choice that we make here, all of the reptilians Dracos, all of the Pleiadians, all of the Galactic Federation just have to say, okay, great.

Hello, everyone. Yes, so the humans have chosen and they chose the light. So that's what we're going to have in the universe. We're going to have just light. So I just assumed, right?

And then I started thinking about it a couple of years ago, and I'm like, no way. No way will the Draconians just be like, yes, the humans have chosen, and because we created them or we helped create them long, long ago, we're going to respect their choice, right? There's no freaking way. They're just going to concede. It's just not going to happen.

So finally I asked again, just like two years ago, and they finally gave me the answer. And here's what they gave me, and I still don't think I have it all, but I'll just kind of give you the little piece that I gained, essentially. They told me that, as always, take it or leave it, okay? Just don't shoot the messenger. They told me that human beings are so powerful that we are a threat to the ones who okay, we're a threat to the lower vibrational beings out there because we have the power to once again make that choice and create that influence.

However, if we choose the dark side, we are a huge asset to their team, right? No matter what side we choose, we're a massive asset to either side just because of who we are. So I wrote it down. Let me just see if I can read this.

So the Awakened Humans from Earth, that's what we're called the Awakened Humans from Earth, become the overseers of the universe. There is no stopping us. That's the message that came through. We become so powerful in making a choice, in understanding who we are, that there's no other being that will be able to contend. Not with us.

Now, we're still literally cavemen, okay? But our future selves become so powerful that all of the lowest vibrational beings cannot keep up with their antics anymore if we choose the Light, okay? Now this kind of reminds me of this is such a random reference, but in Super Mario Bros. There's a little creature called Jigglypuff, you know, that pink like that cute little pink thing that sucks super Smash Bros. That sucks the power from another character and then becomes that or has that power.

And that ability also reminds me of the character I'm like Nerding out here, the character Rogue from the X Men, she touches another mutant and obtains their ability. We are like that. And then the other thing. When the Galactic Federation finally told me that it's not just a passive role we're going to have, it's very much so. An active role we're going to have in correcting the universe and ending these wars, it also reminded me of Superman, okay?

Because Superman was essentially, when he was younger, he wasn't a threat. He just wasn't a threat. He was vulnerable himself. We are being manipulated when we are in our infancy so that we choose that Dark Side, so that all we want is greed and power and control and resources. We are being bred to create that as a reality.

The funny thing is, though, is the more they push corruption, the more they push fear, the more they push lack, the more Star Seeds are awakening to wanting the opposite. The more we want unity, the more we want equality, the more we want connection and authenticity and accountability and responsibility. The more corruption we see in the world, the less we actually want to choose it. And this is the problem that the Dark Side gets into every single time. They think they've got it all figured out, but they have no idea how the Light works.

And how it works is when you taste something, it doesn't taste good, you're like, I don't think I want that. I don't think that sits well with me. And so I want to leave you off with this, our mission.

Our mission as galactic volunteers, our mission as Star seeds. Our mission as one of the most important species to ever exist in the entire universe, sitting here drinking our coffee, watching YouTube on this floating planet that's quite small in relativity. Our mission here is to utilize our free will and choose. But before we choose who we want to be and where we want to take that energy, we have to remember that's it if all you do in this lifetime is remember who you are and make a choice in who you want to be, you never even have to give a second thought into what's going on out there. Because your choice, your actions, your focus in who you want to be, in how you want to show up as a human for yourself and the planet that right there is making that choice for the Collective.

But first, we have to remember, and I'll leave you off with one more thing, and this is something that I very recently started to contemplate myself.

I believe that it's actually not a choice between light or dark. I think that if we were to choose and we were to say that the light is winning, yeah, that could be reasonable. But I think the real awareness and the real choice comes down to understanding both. It's okay to have the light and the dark. It's okay to have high vibration and low vibration.

As a matter of fact, we live in a binary system. We need to have both. If this universe was just all light, there would be no purpose for individual incarnation as we have it. The entire existence of this universe would cease if we were just light. Therefore, I don't think the choice is between light or dark.

I think it's to choose neutrality. I think it's to choose objective awareness. I think it's to accept the darkness just as much as we accept the light, on the condition that whoever wants to be separate from source can be separate from source, and they are not meant to cross that line battle the light. It's not meant to be a battle. We are supposed to have peace in the universe.

And I believe the only way we can have peace is if we activate that source frequency within us, which activates the DNA within us. That DNA gives us the abilities of 20 plus different extraterrestrial species. And with those abilities, we can then enforce neutrality throughout the entire universe instead of having just dark and just light. If every individual being accepts and understands and holds both within themselves, then we can continue to be dualistic while also being closer to source than ever. This is a long video.

I hope it all resonated with you. And if not, that's okay, too. Be sure to give this video a thumbs up. Subscribe to the channel if you haven't already, and share this video with those that you love or that you think this could help, because this is an experiment, but we're we're important, and we need to remember that. And that's my job here, is to help you remember what you already know.

Until next time, I will see all of you in a nondualistic neutral fifth dimension reality. Bye for now.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com. This report covers your future world from July 2016 through to 2031.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

4th Turning

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

YHWH Eh, gods? What'cha Gonna Do? - 04-04-2022

Do you have a religion? No, I don't have a religion. No. I mean, I'm not okay, so I'm not a joiner. Okay, so sigma males, I'm a schizotypical.

So schizotypicals are isolated, okay? Something people don't know about schizophrenics is that schizophrenics have a tendency to put out pheromones that make people uncomfortable around them. So individuals not of my family could not stand being around my brother because he put out pheromones that basically caused them to freak out. So a lot of mentally ill produce stuff in their sweat that makes us feel bad around them. And if you ever encounter an emotionally disturbed individual in the street and you get close enough to them, you will feel that reason to back off, and it is a pheromone.

And so these issues with schizophrenics are formative in terms of how we relate to people and so on, right? So it was not in the nature of my family to be joiners just because of that. And I am a Sigma male, so I'm not a joiner. So I would not have a religion in the sense of belonging to an organization that way. And I do not count religion, which is the organized discussion and analysis of an understanding, a philosophical or spiritual understanding, as being that spiritual understanding.

So I live in the woo. I've always lived in the woo, right? So in my world, I go by that old and I don't even know where it appears, but that old Christian saying that a man's self is God, okay? So in yourself is God. Now, I have gone to some great examination into examining reality, some great thought into examining reality, and I've come up with a theory that I call the Wooble.

And this Wooble explains magnetism at a way that no physicist in quantum mechanics or anything can explain magnetism. And I can measure the explanation. There's a part of my magnetism theory that has a measurement in it, and I can make that measurement that validates that theory. It proves itself, okay? The underlying core of that theory is that the reality we live in is a vibratory reality.

Like Nikola Tesla says, frequency is everything. Vibration is everything. Well, we are vibrating at 22 trillion times a second. We are vibrating into existence and out of existence 22 trillion times a second. And in between each of those vibrations into existence is a gap that the meditators call the void.

And I'm a deep zazan meditator, and I've come close to touching the void, and I know it exists. And this void is a space where there is nonexistence. It happens so fast, our minds are not aware of it at any conscious level, but they do. They are aware of it. And I will tell you right now that there is one thing and one thing only that causes us to recreate our bodies 22 trillion times a second, to jump the gap of the void, so to speak.

And that one thing is consciousness. So in my understanding of reality, and if you go look at my video called Just Another Wu Cult, I get into these various frequencies. But if you go all the way down to 22 trillion times a second and touch through the gap, you touch consciousness that is there, that exists in permanency. That is what people call God. Okay?

So I know I live in that consciousness. So for me, I have never felt the need for a religion. No. But it's reassuring to have confirmation that God, as we call him, exists. I think that's cool.

Okay, so I've had confirmation in another way, much more striking and brutal, and that is that I've died in this body three times in this life. In this body's life, I have perished three times. Most recently was on Friday the 13th July in 2018, when I perished of colon cancer. They took a colon cancer out of me that was 5 CM. By 5 CM.

By 4 CM, it had blocked my intestine, and I had lost 50 pounds in the course of less than six months, and I perished. And in that perishing, I had the same experience that I'd had the previous two times of dying. And so I've had three times as a trend. And so I know that that's what happens when I die. And so I have confirmation that death is not the end.

Right? And is it better that the world that we go to do after death better? We have to be careful about words. Better. How do you define better?

And so on. It is different. There is no fear. There's plenty of good stuff about it, and it's different. It is simply part of what we're doing.

And so, in my understanding, what happens is that you die. And if you are of a sufficiently deep understanding or accurate understanding, you are presented with the image of the mechanism of reality as it exists. Otherwise you're presented with what may be described as an artificial reality, very much like the artificial reality that we're in now. You would find it very difficult to tell the difference between this material that we're in now and the artificial reality that presents itself after death. For most people, that is the case.

Myself, I've died so many times and have lived so many times that I'm at that point where I'm interacting with it on the mechanistic level. So I do not experience or see what others would necessarily see. It is not a ubiquitous experience for all. And in fact, I can assure you that everyone who dies has a personal experience of heaven and an absolutely perfect existence of timeless joy in heaven. I can assure you that this does indeed exist, but it is far more complicated than that statement would tend to suggest.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity. That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

4th Turning

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

The Delingpod: The James Delingpole Podcast - Interview with Clif High - 11-04-2022

Episode Summary:

The PDF document is a transcript of a conversation between James and Cliff, a self-described schizotypical individual who has had unique experiences and insights through the use of psychedelic drugs. Cliff discusses his ability to access a space he calls "hyperspace" where he interacts with non-human minds. He believes that his schizotypical characteristics and psychedelic drug use allow him to journey to hyperspace and interact with other minds, gaining valuable insights and ideas.

Cliff shares a story of exchanging ideas with a non-human entity in hyperspace, which he believes helped the entity's civilization. He also discusses his understanding of the human psyche, stating that all humans are inherently psychic but are unaware of it due to societal conditioning. According to Cliff, people's choice of language reveals their psychic nature as it often precedes events and behaviors. He has developed a system to analyze language on the internet, extracting psychic leaks from the vast amount of data. This system has allowed him to make predictions, including the rise of Bitcoin, which he knew about before it was named.

Cliff has worked as a software programmer for various companies, including Microsoft, IBM, and airlines. He created a system that analyzes language on the internet, extracting psychic leaks from the data. He believes that humans are inherently psychic, and their choice of language reveals their psychic nature. This insight has allowed him to make various predictions, including the rise of Bitcoin, which he was aware of before it was named.

He further elaborates on his understanding of reality, consciousness, and the experience of death. According to Cliff, reality is vibratory, with everything vibrating into and out of existence at a rapid rate. Consciousness is the force that allows for this continuous recreation, bridging the gaps of non-existence or the "void". Cliff believes that consciousness is permanent and is what people refer to as God. He does not adhere to any religion but has a deep understanding and belief in consciousness and the vibratory nature of reality.

Cliff also shares his experiences with death, stating that he has died three times in his life. Each time, he has had unique experiences that confirm to him that death is not the end. He believes that everyone has a personal experience of heaven after death, but the experience is not uniform for all. Cliff's perspective is a blend of spirituality, philosophy, and personal experience, offering a unique viewpoint on life, death, and reality.

The Delingpod: The James Delingpole Podcast - Interview with Clif High - 11-04-2022

Welcome to the delingpod with me, James. Delingpod? And I know I always, always say I'm excited about this week's special guest, but I really am excited. I'm bouncing up and down and I see he's got his whiteboard in the background. It is none other than the legendary Cliff.

Hi, Cliff. Welcome to the delingpod. I've been so thank you very much. Now I don't know how far down the rabbit hole we're going to go. I just wanted to congratulate you, first of all, on that, your podcast, there's a Bug in My Woo, I think it was called, was just one.

I mean, I think you really pushed the boat out there.

Do you agree with me? Yes. The woo thing is a deliberate strategy and a tactic and that was a bit of work to get into that. Yes. Well, we might go on to that if we've got time.

But I know that the people listening to this or watching this are going to be divided between those who are going, oh my God, it's clif high, I'm so excited. And those who are going, who is this guy? Why do we want to listen to him and why should we listen to what he has to say? So for the benefit of those who don't know who you are, can you sort of explain what you do and how it is that you have these kind of insights into what's going on in the world and the way things are going to pan out?

I took a lot of drugs. I took a lot of psychedelic drugs in the psychedelic states I was able because all right, let me back up even further. I am what is described as a schizotypical, that is, a person who has survived, a family member who was a primary Schizophrenic and an early onset Schizophrenic. These people usually die young. My brother died young.

He passed in middle age. He was a lifelong schizophrenic. Siblings that survived Schizophrenic families are called schizotypical. This is not a psychiatric definition, this is a sociological definition, more of a collection of parameters, but it defines a certain kind of a mindset. It is my belief that because of my genetics, because of my schizotypical characteristics, I am able to take psychedelic drugs and I am able to journey to a place that I call hyperspace.

In hyperspace I am able to interact with what I call the other minds that are not human. A mind, other minds. There's much we can discuss about that, but I just call it the other. It is clearly a mind that is not human. In doing so, in my youth, I was fortunate enough to have an occasion to interact with a being that was a hominid, that was another that was amicable, and we transacted.

In hyperspace, I was able to exchange in hyperspace, there is no you exchange things of value, but obviously these are ideas and not material goods. Because there is no matter in hyperspace. You journey there through the psychedelic drug. How he got there, I do not know. There is not language as we describe it there.

There are thoughts that are made expressed in the medium of hyperspace by your mind that are not vibratory excitement of air, as I'm doing now. So I don't know how he got there. It was difficult to communicate. I was able to learn things. I did him a great favor by presenting him with an idea that may have aided his civilization.

And it was an idea that they did not natively arise on their own. It is the idea of a sacrificial surface. We call this idea paint. They were having a crises on their planet that involved conditions of an environmental change, and they had no way of coping with it. And because of the nature of the being that he was, they did not have sacrificial coverings like clothing.

Okay, they had decorative clothing, but they're just a strange being. In any event, though I taught him about the idea of paint, a great deal of deliberate experimenting on mine, I did not know how to make paint at that time. I had to go to my local state library and immerse myself in the chemistry of paint and try and get this idea across to this being. And he got the idea in exchange for that, he gave me the idea that all emotion for all hominids is intricately related to our vagus nervous system, and that our vagus nervous system is what allows us to peer through our energy bodies and extract patterns from universe that we might think of as present. I took that one stage further because of things that he taught me and applied that to language.

I then wrote a series of programs. I made my living as a software programmer for microsoft, IBM, gecmark, british airlines, american airlines for years. And as a programmer, I devised a system that went out on the internet and brought in millions and millions and millions of words and reduced them down to a thick word soup, from which I extracted all of the psychic leaks that people are continuously leaking out. One of the key things I learned from this individual in hyperspace is that all humans are incredibly psychic. We are trapped within a mind control that forbids us from seeing our own psychic nature, but it must leak out, and it leaks out in our choice of language.

Our choice of language precedes behavior and events by some distance. I was able to tap into that. That's probably my biggest claim to fame. So I knew about bitcoin before it had been named bitcoin. Thus I was able to be there when bitcoin was ten cents and take advantage of I have known about things because of things, right?

So because of this language aspect, and because of the knowledge I learned in hyperspace, I have learned things here in this material that I find to be of value for humans because others have listened to me. There are now many millionaires in cryptocurrencies that just listened to me and made their own decisions. I was not advising people to buy or sell or do anything. I'm just pointing out what is available to be seen if one knows how to see it. That has got to be the best self job description I've ever heard and an unbeatable intro to any podcast.

Thank you. At that point, I tell you, Cliff, at that point there's going to be a fork. Some people are going to be going, I'm not going to listen to anymore of this crazy shit. It's already gone too far down the rabbit hole. And other people are going, I had no idea that Cliff was this cool.

Anyway, you'll be pleased to hear that I'm in the latter camp. But it's good that you do have that, I think even the normis. And as you know, I was, until very recently a Norman myself. This has been a very steep learning curve for me this last six to nine months, whatever. But I think one thing that normally need to deal with somebody like you is they need a kind of anchor to the reality that they understand.

And I think they can probably relate to the idea of algorithms, of sort of searching words.

They examine word frequency, is that right? No, actually I do that to throw out all the meaningless words. Okay. So there's a key aspect of this that I've sort of hinted at, but I've never really gotten into the details of my emotional reduction engine. I figured out a way in programming to reduce words down to some quantified numeric, values, intensity, duration, in other words.

So I did a lot of work. I mean, I did over decades of work figuring out things. So I would put out on a forum, I would put out an outrageous statement that we should never ever celebrate Christmas unless Santa Claus has a blue beard. Something just really strange, right? And then I would use algorithm to find how far this word propagated out into this phrase propagates out into the internet.

So I was tracking language much more intensely than in mere frequency. So I never cared about frequency. Then I discovered some key things that I won't reveal the totality of it, but in England, in the UK, I'm sure you still maintain some of the older linguistic ways where they would say, oh, my palm is inching and it means something, right? It means you're going to get money, relatives, or, you know, I got a toothache. It means my aunt's got, you know.

So there's this like psychic connection kind of stuff to your body and the clues that your body provides. I was able to systematize that. Okay? So I was able to find the language of people leaking out in their casual conversation and gardening fora that would tell me that there was a new financial system coming. And I did it on the terms of hundreds and hundreds of millions of what I called reads.

And a read was finding these keywords and then gathering 2048 words on either side of them should it exist, and then coming back and running this thing through my engine. So I would run these routines where I had servers just sitting all over the place, dragging stuff off the internet, capturing words and capturing metadata about the words where we found them and so on. And then we'd run that for 18 or 20 days, and then I'd run processing for 18 or 20 days. It was a batch system. Because of the nature of the way I developed it, it was never interactive in that sense.

Right. I had to trigger it off and run it this way. And I would go through 100 million internet captures in order to produce an individual report. The vast majority of the 100 million internet captures were thrown out because it was conscious language, and I was not after conscious language, after that inadvertent slip of using one word as opposed to another. So I can give you a flavor of it by saying that there's three different types of language.

There's immediacy language, there's shortterm language, and then there's long term. Longterm generally tends to be legal language, right? And informal language that's going to have a long term impact on you. Short term language is like the everyday kind of stuff.

Immediacy language has an immediacy effect out to about three or four days, maximally out to three weeks. Shortterm language is from the beginning of the fourth week until the end of the third month, and long term languages from the end of the third month, out 19 months. And so by slotting language into these different slots, I could get an idea of when that thing is approaching to us, so to speak. And so that's what I did for timing. The timing clues were just terrible.

It was just terrible, terrible, terrible. Like 1215 years of work to get even close on that. And then the censorship, and then I got polluted by this blue chicken space cult, and it caused my data to go wonky. Nonetheless, for a while there, it was dialed in very accurately, and that's what allowed a lot of people to make themselves millionaires following my crypto analysis and these kinds of things. Good.

I wish I'd been a cliffhigh fan at that point. I'm a bit late in the game to pick up on this newfangled thing called bitcoin, but maybe there'll be other trends that you can spot that will help us all listening. I can tell you about those now. Yeah. So it's not a problem.

Don't worry about it. Good, because actually, one of the many things I love about you, cliff, is that you bring a message of hope. Now, there are lots of people on the internet engaging in what you might call woo, or sort of variations on woo. People have gone down the rabbit hole. But A, I think a lot of them are bullshitters.

They're sort of regurgitating what they've heard elsewhere. And I'm not going to name any names, but we know who they are.

Absolutely. You can also well, maybe they do carry messages, but I trust your messages of hope more than I do those of other people. I think there's something about you which I think is honorable and informed. Maybe I'm wrong. Well, no, you're correct.

Thank you for that. I count myself an honorable man. Right. So I'm a Sigma male, which is an unusual thing in our society. Sigma males are like alpha males, but we basically think beyond our own deaths, and we don't really necessarily want to involve ourselves in the social order.

And we generally live alone, are self isolating. And I have found that among Sigma males, you will frequently, if you can identify a sigma male, usually they have that characteristic we call honor. And I found Sigma males that are the head of motorcycle gangs right. That are nonetheless honorable men. And so I take that as a compliment.

I understand that as a compliment, and that is something I hold myself, too, is this particular category of honor. And this is very necessary, in my opinion now, because that's what gives us the hope that we all want. Yeah, well, totally. One of my experiences in the last six months, say, is finding God. I was brought up a Church of England, and I went to one of those schools where you had chapel services every day and twice a day on Sundays.

But religion was not the same thing as actually believing in God. Where are you on that one, by the way? Do you have a religion? No, I don't have a religion.

I'm not a joiner. Okay, so Sigma males, I'm a schizotypical. So schizotypicals are isolated. Something people don't know about schizophrenics is that schizophrenics have a tendency to put out pheromones that make people uncomfortable around them. So individuals not of my family could not stand being around my brother because he put out pheromones that basically caused them to freak out.

So a lot of mentally ill produced stuff in their sweat that makes us feel bad around them. And if you ever encounter an emotionally disturbed individual in the street and you get close enough to them, you will feel that reason to back off. And it is a pheromone. And so these issues with schizophrenics are formative in terms of how we relate to people and so on. Right.

So it was not in the nature of my family to be joiners just because of that. And I am an a Sigma male, so I'm not a joyner. So I would not have a religion in the sense of belonging to an organization that way. And I do not count religion, which is the organized discussion and analysis of an understanding, a philosophical or spiritual understanding, as being that spiritual understanding. So I live in the Whoo.

I've also lived in the woot, right? So in my world, I go by that old, and I don't even know where it appears, but that old Christian saying that a man's self is God, okay? So in yourself is God. Now, I have gone to some great examination into examining reality, some great thought into examining reality, and I've come up with a theory that I called a wobble. And this Wooble explains magnetism in a way that no physicist in quantum mechanics or anything can explain magnetism.

And I can measure the explanation. There's a part of my magnetism theory that has a measurement in it, and I can make that measurement that validates that theory. It proves itself. Okay? The underlying core of that theory is that the reality we live in is a vibratory reality.

Like Nikola Tesla says, frequency is everything, vibration is everything. Well, we are vibrating at 22 trillion times a second. We are vibrating into existence and out of existence 22 trillion times a second. And in between each of those vibrations into existence is a gap that the meditators called the void. And I'm a deep zazan meditator, and I've come close to touching the void and I know it exists.

And this void is a space where there is nonexistent. It happens so fast, our minds are not aware of it at any conscious level, but they do. They are aware of it. And I will tell you right now that there is one thing and one thing only that causes us to recreate our bodies 22 trillion times a second, to jump the gap of the void, so to speak. And that one thing is consciousness.

So in my understanding of reality, and if you go look at my video called Just Another Wu Cult, I get into these various frequencies. But if you go all the way down to 22 trillion times a second and touch through the gap, you touch consciousness that is there, that exist in permanency. That is what people call God. Okay? So I know I live in that consciousness.

So for me, I've never felt the need for a religion. No. But it's reassuring to have confirmation that God, as we call Him, exists. I think that's cool. Okay, so I've had confirmation in another way much more striking and brutal, and that is that I've died in this body three times in this life.

In this body's life, I have perished three times. Most recently was on Friday the 13th July in 2018 when I perished of colon cancer. They took a colon cancer out of me that was 5 CM by 5 CM by 4 had blocked my intestine, and I had lost £50 in the course of less than six months, and I perished. And in that perishing, I had the same experience that I'd had the previous two times of dying and so I had three times as a trend. And so I know that that's what happens when I die.

And so I have confirmation that death is not the end. Right? And is it better that the world that we go to after death better? We have to be careful about words. Better.

How do you define better? And so on. It is different. There's no fear. There's plenty of good stuff about it and it's different.

It is simply part of what we're doing. And so in my understanding, what happens is that you die. And if you are of a sufficiently deep understanding or accurate understanding, you are presented with the image of the mechanism of reality as it exists. Otherwise you're presented with what may be described as an artificial reality, very much like the artificial reality that we're in now. You would find it very difficult to tell the difference between this material that we're in now and the artificial reality that presents itself after death.

For most people, that is the case. Myself, I've died so many times and have lived so many times that I'm at that point where I'm interacting with it on the mechanistic level. So I do not experience or see what others would necessarily see. It is not a ubiquitous experience for all. And in fact, I can assure you that everyone who dies has a personal experience of heaven.

An absolutely perfect existence of timeless joy in heaven. I can assure you that this does indeed exist. But it is far more complicated than that statement would tend to suggest. Right. Where are you on good and evil?

I like good. I don't like evil. Yeah, they are objectively. They do exist, don't they? I mean, they're not just yes, all of our reality, if you go and look at my Wobble video, it gets into it deeper.

But all of our reality is based on asymmetry based on duality. There is the pulse that keeps us created 22 times, trillion times a second and there's the void. And so we're always oscillating between these two aspects. There's always going to be oscillation. There must be a counterposition for any position that anything ever assumes in this reality as we go forward.

So evil must exist simply, if for no other reason than to define good. Yes, funny enough, that was exactly how I explained it to somebody the other day. Somebody was saying, well, how do you know evil? Evil exists? Or how do you know good exists?

And yeah, the duality makes total sense to me. It seems to me look, we are living in extraordinary times, I mean, even unprecedented times. Have we had anything like this before? Not in the last 2780 years. There may have been a period of time, actually in around 1100, in the 1100 BC in which we had a chaotic time within humanity.

And that was the collapse of the Bronze Age civilization, right? Yes, I remember you mentioned that on the bug podcast. Okay, so in modern history and going back before the Romans, there's never been a time like this, correct? Right. And that itself is so amazing to me.

On the other side of the pulse, where all of us exist in our non alive state, the medium psychosis, it's called that point of time between lives, that's the land of permanence, okay? The realm of permanence is basically what we all call it there. Over here is the place where change can occur, okay? Change can only occur because of the pulse. The fact that we have the void allows us to move very much like moving pictures, only we're doing it at 22 trillion times a second because it allows our blood to move, our hair to grow, all of this kind of stuff, right.

It's got to be at that fantastic rate. But this ability of change is why the material exists. The material is where all of the matter exists, right? Where we are. The material exists for us to encounter change in order that we may be able to learn and grow and then take that back to the other side with us and thus grow and mature in progress through our various incarnations.

What has happened here in this reality? The material has been hijacked, in my opinion, and it has been hijacked for at least the last 2780 years, if not for the previous 2780 years. And it has been as though there has been a spell on us. The last such spell that was put on us was on September 11, 2001. The attack on the World Trade Center put a spell on the whole planet that froze us for the next 15 years.

They put these spells on us, the powers of the be, to put the mind control on us in order that they might freeze our emotional progress, if you will. And in doing so, we get change. But it's at a very mundane kind of a level, very trivial kind of change right now, as you say, we are in an extraordinary period of time where the ability of them to put the spell on us is breaking. Why you changed over these last nine months at such a core level is specifically why their spell is breaking, okay? Because there are billions of all of us going through the same thing.

Now. People like myself, David Ike, Max Egan, universe had us addressed those same issues decades back such that we would be here now to talk to all of you as you're going through these same issues, okay, so that we can all get on the same page, because universe has decided that they won't be able to put spells on us anymore, and we shall have change. This change is going to undo thousands of years of history, and we're going to start fresh. It is the most sparkling diamond of pure change that could ever it's a great gift to all of us. You cannot know how great this gift is.

Well, that's exciting, but I know that leavening this joy and excitement. You've also mentioned that loads of people are going to die in the process before we reach this.

It's a crossing. As we progress up and through the change, many people will leave us, right? Yes. I suppose you're not going to make this new omelet without breaking a few eggs. Before we go there.

I just wanted to go back slightly because you mentioned earlier rather excitingly, I think that we've all got these natural, tremendous you didn't say psychic powers. What did you say? We've got intuition, psychic abilities. Abilities. And is that in our pineal gland?

Is that wherein it lies? No, the pineal things. Okay, so we only have four senses. We don't have five senses. What we call the sense of touch is a sensation.

There is no sense organ there. All of our sense organs are up in our cranium. Okay? Sense organs are complete subsystems, so you do not hear the sound and then decode it. Your ears do that for you, just as your eyes decode the light and give you the image in the back of your brain so that you don't actually have to see the little light and put it all together and structure your reality that way and you're delivered taste and smell.

These are obscure to our science because they are complete subsystems. The pineal gland is such a complete subsystem. Okay, the pineal gland is extremely interesting. Now, in an unfortunate sense, I got to go outside the body to describe what's going to happen, all right, with the pineal gland. So when you die, your soul okay, so all humans are born through the process wherein the mother actually inhales the soul that will become her offspring, of the being that will become her offspring.

It enters in through her breath. The soul goes in, and the soul can be thought of as like a personally designed template for your body that is impressed over the developing fetus in that woman. So if your soul did not go into that woman, it would go into some other woman, but you would arise the same way out of either of those two women with some small physical differences based on the genetics, the inheritance characteristics of that woman. But the soul describes your body in a very detailed template format. Your soul is not self aware.

Your soul does not have consciousness. You are conscious. But your soul is a separate thing from you that is not conscious in the same way you are. Your soul is conscious of its task and its duties, and that's it. At the end of every life, your soul is reduced to a single drop of what we in the material here call intuition.

The single drop that the soul is reduced to is the sum total of everything you have learned from your experience with the Karma that your body had to deal with. Not your knowledge, not your emotions, but the Karma karmic things that's reduced to a single drop of what we call intuition. It is your pineal gland that accesses that intuition through its subsystem. So we do have five senses. But the pineal gland, even though it's a sensor, it's not as though the other senses so in the material.

We don't really think of the pineal gland as like taste or smell or something, but it delivers to you intuition. And so if you do things and fill your pineal gland full of calcium and you have a bad diet and stuff and it's not functioning, then you will have very little intuitive ability. Right. So it's really very important to keep your pineal gland decalcified. That's interesting.

Yeah, because I've just been taking this fermented skate liver oil, which apparently is very cool. I love that stuff. Yeah, it's really good. The stuff of Vikings. Yeah.

It goes back to your Saxon roots. Yeah. Well, I think I've noticed the difference. So some people are just more in tune with one of my I don't know whether you saw the podcast I did with a friend of mine called Jonathan Miles Lee, who was very, very he got me on to drinking distilled water and taking microdoses of psilocybin and into the importance of the pineal gland. And he was very I mean, he was psychic.

All sorts of interesting experiences. But most of us are just living like we're sort of these lump and beings, aren't we just completely in denial, right? We're condensate. Okay. It is not true that E equals MC squared.

Einstein was 100% wrong about that. The nuclear explosions in atom bombs and nuclear reactors are, in fact, electrical reactions. They're not nuclear. There's no such thing as nuclear forces. It's all vibrations.

Right? And so we are vibrating. We are spirit that motivates matter. Matter is very dense, and you can't extract the energy back out of it. All you can do is rip the electrical bonds, and that's what creates the nuclear explosions.

But matter being dense, that's what gives us the lump and feeling. But the psychic aspect of this, you've got to be very careful about it because some people are extremely psychic. I was extremely psychic in those last six months before I died. It was because my body was deteriorating on me, and it was basically becoming more and more simply pure vibration. And as a pure vibrating antenna, I pick up ancillary I would ruminate with what was going around on me.

Right. So I became extremely psychic. So many of the people that I will meet in the course of my life and have met that are psychic individuals don't have a good body. Their bodies are not doing well. They're vibrating too much.

They're taking substances that make them psychic, more psychic and increase. That vibration at the cost of their adrenal gland and all these other functions within the body. I personally would never drink distilled water. It leaps minerals out of the gut and it is a precursor. Your gut has only got one cell thick of lining on it with the villi to take nutrients out of there.

And distilled water can disturb that greatly and potentially could cause colon cancer. I died from that and the pain of that, it's not something to occult. Okay, Cliff, what do I do about that one? Obviously, the target is full of shit. Okay, so here's what you do.

You can have filtered water and distilled water, but distilled water, water wants to have minerals in it. So you need to have some level of effective mineralization in the body if you're going to be dealing with distilled water. Filtered water is different. All right? So you can distill water out and simply let it sit out so that it can become oxygenated and it will grab some level of minerals, nitrogen, etc.

E from the air. However, another way to do it is to get very pure filtered water and then make sure you have adequate minerals in your diet. And these are like 93 trace minerals you need. You can look them up. It's like folic acid.

Put a couple of drops in your water and you're good. So you just need to be advised that psychic ability is okay. It's great, but it frequently comes at the expense of your body, and that's not good in your overall general progress from life to life. Right? Okay, so let's go back to what's going on now and this extraordinary thing.

It seems to me that the world has been hijacked for a very long time, actually, by an elite. Or maybe the elite are in the service of a higher power which is tormented and evil, whatever it is. You call it, the bug. It's just a placeholder, right? Okay, so you're right.

We've been captured. All governments have been infiltrated and captured. And now it has become visible. And as it becomes visible, that alone is a catalyst to cause your thinking to change, which can cause a change in you, which will turn feedback into this loop. And you cause a change in the reality around you by having made that change internally.

So look at what has happened. We have a situation where the powers that be have decided that they need to call the herd. They need to kill us all off. The reason that they need to do this is they can't pay pensions. Our financial system is breaking down and they can no longer it's not going to last two more years.

It's not even going to last one more year. Absent the COVID and everything we would have had the mother of all crashes in the financial system in 2020, late 2020 would have been the ultimate death of all of the financial system. Structure. We're there now with the backdoor repo on the overnight on the Federal Reserve, the swapping of all of these DRS, they're trying to jen us up to the next level of system, and it's all of debt slavery. Now, in the past, every 100 years, they would institute a plague and then followed by wars or a war, followed by plagues.

They would alternate it sometime. If you look back through history, basically every 100 to 120 years, this happens all the way back to the Middle Ages and the plague years and the origination of the plague laws, okay? So the plague, the Black Death, in my opinion, was engineered by the power elite, and there is even some evidence that you can find that supports this. And they're attempting to do this playbook all over again. But some of the humans, some of the herd, have wired up for the last long time, maybe 60 years, there's been an active self organizing collective that has put together a plan and has engaged with the Bug, the power elite, the captured governments, and is in the process of undoing them.

And this plan, in my opinion, is brilliant, absolute, shining brilliance. And step by step by step, we shall have victory. And we're very, very close, right? Because there are two scores of thought on this, one of which is that what you're saying is the purest hopeium. And hopeium is a trick designed to fool us into thinking that good things are going to happen, when actually it's not.

They don't. Sure, no. hopeium is a bugs weapon because they put up the savior and then allow it to crash. Put it up and allow it to crash because they're feeding off that emotion from the crash. And I'm not offering hope him, okay?

I'm just giving you a projection, and I'm saying that this shall occur. I could be 100% wrong, but I have evidence to support my projection, in my opinion. And then there's something else. I have a pretty incredible track record in projecting future occurrences. Okay, so tell me, first of all about the do we call them White House, the people who sort of formulated this plan.

I call them Asalk self organizing collective. Right. And these will be what? People like you and me? I mean, generals?

No, not generals astute military analysts, okay? People that would have been in the if we had to give them a rank, I would say they would be in the colonels. Some of them would be called Iron Eagles, okay? So in our country here, you have a lieutenant colonel, a lieutenant colonel that has a one insignia. And then when they become a full colonel, they become what we call full bird, and they get this little image of this stylized eagle for their emblem.

If they do not become a general, that eagle becomes iron, so to speak. They're going to finish out their career as a colonel, all right? So these Iron Eagles are people that don't have any political pressure to try and advance their career. They are content, and they've got all these resources, and they have acumen, and they are astute, and they've been trained by the best lifelong university ever in observation, and they saw the bug, and they decided among them how to best do it. And they put a lot of thought in it over a lot of years and came up with a very incredible, clever plan.

Not clever, brilliant. There's a difference. And do we know what the plan is? You obviously know what it is. You're going to tell us what it is?

Or is that giving away? No, there are very few. Okay, so I know the plan. I'm not involved with these individuals. I'm simply an A student analyst on my own, and I was trained by my father, and I am my father's son.

My father had a very interesting military career. He was in the United States Military. He was an Iron Eagle, and he exited the military after a lifetime career there. But he began his military career as an inductee in the Korean War, in which, in the second engagement, he was involved Heartbreak Ridge. He saved his entire company and another company after the officers were wiped out, and he took the objective, and bear in mind, he'd only been in country, like, 15 or 20 days at that point, and he was given a battlefield commission.

Okay? So that shocked the hell out of him, for one. And so he went through the War college, and I went through it with him. So I've been trained in these kind of analysis, and so I have been able, with my acumen, to be able to see certain things being said or done years ahead of the point of it. And so I'll give you an example.

I think it was maybe back in March or April of 2020, maybe it was even earlier. I'd have to go and look. But then President Trump made a curious statement in a speech. He said, I have great enemies, powerful enemies. They're very displeased with me.

I have to go away. It will be for a short while. Do not be afraid. Things will get better. Now, why should he say these things in the course at the intro to a speech back then?

So Trump, in my opinion and I've analyzed him, I don't know Trump, the personality. I've never followed him. I didn't watch any TV or any of that kind of stuff. So I've only done this after the fact. But I've analyzed his actions and stuff, and he's been dropping clues to what's going on this entire time in his presidency.

So he's been doing things. So he told us he had to go away for a while, but it was legit, and that he had to go away because he's got big, powerful enemies, specifically the Big Pharma. And so we see things like that. If you see several thousands of those kinds of things going on, then you can say, the reality being presented to me, to my eyes, ears and so on, is not the reality that isn't in existence. And thus we can make certain conclusions about what's actually happening.

And so you hear people say, oh, you're never going to get rid of the infiltrators, and all of the people that are duplicitous in occupying roles, they should not yet. Okay, that may well be the case. In our experience. They've had a long run, they've been very successful and so on. But I see now certain things that are occurring that are very curious, and that is that, yes, there are FEMA camps in the United States, and so maybe you could think they're going to be used for COVID quarantine or something, right?

But curiously, the military is involved in a very large couple, more than a couple of projects building prisons. Even at this extraordinary time of hyperinflation. They're busting their butts to build these big ass prisons in a couple of places in the United States. They're not large scale quarantine camps like we see the Australians building for their population. This is a specific prison situation, right.

And these prisons have various interesting accoutrement with them that suggests something other than an ordinary situation. In other words, these prisons are being built with courthouses. You don't usually do that unless you're going to be running. Unless you're basically what I'm saying is I'm seeing people in the military getting set up for a production run of prisoners. They're going to be able to run them through a court situation and then right into the prison right there.

And so this is very unusual. It would not make any sense at all. Does not make any sense at all from the perspective of the captured institutions doing it. It doesn't aid them in any way, shape or form because they're not trying to encapsulate a relatively small number of people. They want to visit a great number of people, the whole country.

So there's all these things that are not hoping, that are evidence, and we see it all over the place. Is there a sock equivalent in the UK? Please say yes. Yes, it is. Okay, so here's the thing.

This is why Americans are having such a hard time, all right, and the rest of the world for that matter, because so many people clue in America as the great shining beacon on the hill and their source of hope, right? Yeah. All right. So here's the problem for Americans and for everybody else. This is not about Trump.

This is not about Trump coming back. This is not about anything that has been brought up within any of the political structure that you've heard about so far. This is, as I said, this is about removing the book. This is about freeing humanity. This sock set out to liberate humanity at some point they discovered it was not simply the United States.

It may have been very early in their investigation that they saw that this was global and growing larger, that it was a giant octopus upon us all. And this socks set out to liberate all of humanity. So, yes, I can assure you that the UK is involved, as is Denmark, Sweden, France, any country you care to name. There will be some level of representation or contact in those countries because it is globally coordinated. And so I know that there are iron eagles in various countries that are participating, but it is not 100% military.

It is necessary that the military be the face and take over the brunt of it because some ugly stuff has to be done. So I'm not giving hope you I'm not saying that we're all going into the wizard of Oz land as of any particular day. I'm saying we've got a very long, hard years of suffering, years of deprivation, years of shortages, years of your life changing until you will no longer even remember what we used to call normal. And in that process, in that process of going through that, the agony and the suffering and the death, we will become a free humanity. And that is worth it.

Right? When you say they go do some ugly stuff, what do you mean? People dying everywhere. So many people dying that the nature of our social order changes. So many people dying that someone will come to you and say, james, we're going to need you to work next Saturday to come in on the body disposal group where we're going to need you with your dogs to go from apartment to apartment to apartment to see if people have died and to flag them and this kind of thing.

Are you talking specifically about the go away phone? Anyway? You're talking about what I call the death jab.

It's that bad? Because it's interesting, isn't it? You know, Cliff, I'm just about the only job I don't want to exaggerate. I'm not the only one. I'm just about certainly the only ex mainstream media journalist to have to be on your side of the argument to believe that this is a kill shot and stuff.

And people sort of, I imagine, if they talk about me at all, have conversations like, whatever happened to James Denningpal? He used to be his boat went round that bend in the river. Yes. They think I'm just completely mad. If they saw this podcast, they'd think I was even madder.

I mean, I can tell you, isn't it, it wouldn't be wrong. But here's the thing. Just because you're crazy, it doesn't mean you're wrong, right? They are trying to kill us. Here's something that I tell people.

Nothing in this world today makes any sense at all. Bring up any kind of thing you want to talk about. There's aspects of it that just make no sense. The powers that be what they're doing, the populist response. The populace is out here saying basically, what's going on?

We don't know. Nothing makes sense at all. All right? But if you will slot one single idea into your thinking, everything will become instantly clear and instantly makes sense. And that one single idea is they want to kill you.

If you plot that in, if you go on in and you say it is a deliberate, depopulation agenda to kill as many humans as possible, then it all makes sense. Then it makes sense. Why are they continuing with the jab when we've got thousands dead and the swine flu was shut down with only 25 dead? And why do we have all of these different things happening? All of it makes sense if you just say they're trying to kill us.

And so I don't know how people are going to conceptualize the they, but sooner or later, you start looking at who the they are, and then you see that they're trying to kill you with bad food, with too much electromagnetic radiation around you in all these different ways anyway. And so it all makes sense that they do want to kill you. And then you start looking into Bill Gates. You find out that he said the best thing that could happen to humanity would be 2 billion people dying right away, and then another 2 billion dying in about five years. And by the way, he's the head of all of these vaccine projects, but he's not a virologist, and there's no medical degree or anything like that.

And so why would you ever want to take a product produced by an individual who has a stated goal of killing off at least four sevenths of humanity? Where in your life have you ever gotten medical care free? I mean, in your case, it's different. Here in the United States, we pay for everything, and yet they're giving away these death jabs, and so obviously, they want to give them to you. And there's another thing about this.

As in advertising, if the product is free, you are the product. Yes. So there we are. And so if you think about it that way, they're trying to kill us, it all makes sense. Then you can start analyzing, is there some substance to that idea?

And you go and you see some doctors that say, in my clinic, 62% of the people presenting themselves with illnesses that are vaccinated have blood clots, micro blood clots, and elevated Ddimer tests. And so then you can tell someone that's had the shot. You can go find out if they're trying to kill you, go get this simple blood test called a Ddimer, and you guys have free medical stuff. Well, hey, turns out I hear that the medical system in the UK, they don't want to do this de dimer test that no matter what you do, unless you go to an outside physician, they're not going to do it for you unless you present at the hospital. I don't know that that's true, but that's what I'm being told.

How come? Because all this seems obvious to me. Crazy, but obvious. So how come so many people I mean, number one, how come so many doctors who've sworn the Hippocratic oath or whatever and you thought became doctors to do good, to heal people? Okay, politicians, we understand why they're doing what they do because they're just like they have no principles.

But doctors are captured.

Here's how they capture them. The medical school is designed to cultivate a particular kind of mind. That mind is dominated by memory, not cognition. Most doctors would have a hard time coming into a new situation and analyzing it and coming to an effective conclusion to fight their way out of a paper sack. I've seen doctors that can tell you every bone and all of this kind of stuff.

They've got memories all over that can't figure out a mechanical latch on a garden gate even after I've demonstrated it to them. And so they do not think, they don't analyze. And then these memory beings, these doctors that are all memory and jammed full, are captured by the institutions that they work for, and they're like everybody else, they're amenable to being squeezed by the salary, being able to support their families and so on. So they may indeed have good intentions and see no evil in anything they're doing because they believe the mainstream media, they haven't examined the results of their own actions and thus are not that way. Now, I was just on another interview with Greg Hunter here in the US.

And I brought up this thing because this guy called me. He's a doctor, and he's quit his job several days back, and he drove from where he was in the Midwest and the US. Down to California, basically in a mental fog because one day he went into work and he actually had to fill out paperwork that brought a staggering idea to his he's an Er doc or a hospitalist and brought a staggering idea to him, and that nine out of every ten people he put on a ventilator died. And now he understands that he shouldn't have put them on ventilators. He's starting to grasp it, right, starting to understand nine out of the ten people that he put on ventilators died.

And he's understanding now that his lack of attention and his lack of thinking has caused him to be in this position. And he's been killing vaccinated people with ventilators that got the so called delta variant. Yes. And of course, you know that it's illegal for you in the United States to know which variant you have. The reason it's illegal is because the test that would tell you which variant you have has to be certified in order to certify that test.

It costs several million dollars. Nobody is willing to do it so when they say delta variant, they're just making it up. It could be Moo, Lambda Epsilon, it doesn't make any difference. And we also now know that all of the vaccines as of like two weeks ago perhaps are 100% ineffective because there's no longer a COVID circulating in the general population on the planet has the spike protein that is in the vaccines. They have 17 or 16 other spike proteins because there are 17 spike proteins involved in this.

And so all the vaccines have that one spike protein in them to supposedly protect. And it's not circulating in the wild anymore. The vaccines that we know, don't we, from the vaccines, socalled vaccines, were prepared before the pandemic. They've been sort of doing the rounds, waiting for an opportunity. Do you think they were actually designed as kill shots or is it a kind of byproduct of their rush process?

No, it was not rushed. It took them well over a year. From the Falky emails, we know that Falkie's chief engineer, virology engineer was succeeded in attaching a spike protein to the coronavirus somewhere before 2015 and bragged about it in a video in 2015 16. So they put the spike protein on the coronavirus to cause this. At that point they were also engineering the vaccines along with the progress of that attachment of spike proteins.

Spike proteins were delivered in a final form for the vaccine to Mederna and to pfizer in 2019, early 2019, ahead of the pandemic being released the next year. I tumbled to the pandemic when I was watching the Chinese Dark Web before they shut it down on April 1 in 2020. And I saw the activity in late 19 in China that was circulating on the web and really freaked out. And so the bioweapon was deliberately released and sometime in 2019 and they've had this all set up. The kill shot is designed to kill, that's his point.

And the way it kills is they don't want to kill everybody. The day they go in, only one out of 3000 people drop dead that day from the shot. An additional one out of 3000 will drop dead in the subsequent week. But everybody is getting damaged. And the idea is that they'll give you enough shots that you'll just go home and die one day and they won't have to worry about you.

We have that situation here now where EMT people, ambulance people are telling me that a shift does not go by, that they don't go and haul a dead person out of an apartment that simply died alone following a shot of some number of them. They don't know if they've had two shots, one shot or whatever, they're just hauling dead people out of apartments all over the place. These are not old people, they're middle aged and reasonably young. So it was a death shot. It had to be done in this way in order to get as many people as possible to take it.

This is why the Biden administration and everybody was trying to get an extraordinary number for herd immunity. If you go to an animal vet, and if you go to a vet, if you go to an animal hubandrus that deals with herds, they will tell you all throughout history, herd immunity is 12%. Not 70, not 80. It's 12% of a herd of cows, 12% of a herd of goats or sheep. If you get that many immune, you don't have a problem.

Okay? So this idea of getting 70% of the United States shot with this stuff was intended to kill people. It was not intended to create herd immunity. And as a matter of fact, now we've already reached 80% of the people in the United States have either contracted and developed natural immunity to COVID or are vaccinated. So we should technically be able to simply cease vaccinations now, not put the effort into it and not worry about it anymore and be good isn't part of the problem with their plan.

Or maybe they've got a counter plan here. The people who are not taking the job are the very people who they ought to most want to eliminate. People like you and me and the cupid difficult people. That is indeed their biggest issue. Their thing was that we should not have existed.

It shouldn't have rolled out this way. Okay, so the self organizing collective came into existence and became global sometime in the became active in the early part of this millennium, right? As the century changed, there was a plan on the part of the bad guys, the globalists, whatever we want to call it. That plan was able to be implemented to a certain degree. The SoC became aware of it and started tracking the plan in about 2004, electronically.

And so they knew that the plan was to put Obama in office for eight years, followed by Hillary Clinton for eight years. Obama was to get his goal was to have all of the guns in the United States taken away the same way they did in Australia about the same time you noticed that we go through those same events, and they tried to do it here. Obama said that he never had any scandals, which is bullshit, all these other things. But Obama administration had more mass shootings that have ever existed in the United States, and most of them were concentrated on schools and all of this kind of thing. And poor Alex Jones got all kinds of deep problems for the Sandy Hook issue.

Now the Sandy Hook school shooting is being resurrected because they're trying to again get our guns under Biden, because Trump put the plan back. Hillary Clinton was not supposed to lose. They cheated to get Hillary Clinton to win. But the sock knew the cheat was going to happen. And they had previously asked Trump to occupy this role in the giant battle against good and evil against evil from good side.

And so Trump was to be president. He was President, but he was definitely acting within his role, within the sock. He put their plans back four years, so they're having to rush everything right now. Their plans were to have a nuclear war that would take out all of us cussed ones. We were going to lose this nuclear war in the west.

It was going to hit the United States, it was going to hit Australia, it was going to hit England, and we were going to lose and we were going to lose our constitution here in the United States and in Australia as the Chinese came in as the winners of the war. Because the losers don't get to keep the Constitution, right? Yes. When we took over Germany at the end of World War II, we gave them the Constitution we wanted, and so that was the plan. Well, Hillary Clinton didn't get to have her nuclear war.

The bioweapon was supposed to come after the nuclear war to finish off the last part of the process. So they've been thrown all out of kilter by the sock and are now struggling to maintain the status quo and recover, even as parts of their plan still are attempting to be pumped out. And so Biden is now attempting to make up for the failure of Obama in taking our guns and to maneuver us into this next war, et cetera, et cetera. They're trying to rush it all. They had a plan that this was supposed to go down by 2050.

This is all written down. We've seen this stuff written down since the 1860s in freemason literature and so on. So we know what the plan is, that their plan is, and for some reason, something motivated them to bring that plan forward from 2050 to 2020. That, I think was their undoing. And in any event, though they shall be undone.

I'm not offering opium here because this is a war we're going to suffer. Lots of us will die in this process, but we will win because we are determined to win. Because the thing is, the SoC formed itself up and has control of the military and a big chunk of the power. They know that they're dealing with an insurrection, an insurrection that is truly evil and is global. And the only way to deal with an insurrection is through a counter insurrection.

A counterinsurgency, right. Yeah. And so this counterinsurgency has two main elements. It has the military and the populace. The military is on board and doing stuff.

Now, as we note from your reaction, from your personal change over these last six months. Now the populace is getting involved and becoming awake. As we reach a certain point of everything being awake, when we reach a certain number of awake individuals in the populace, then things can go into a much more active and visible level of the theater of this. War. And that is coming very quickly.

Yes, this is good to hear, but if you went into any of the various chat groups I'm in, one of the most common complaints is like, we are so few. Why do so few people get it? It's so obvious to us. Are you telling me that this is going to change? This has changed.

Here's the problem. The chat groups and every way in which you communicate is controlled by the enemy. The enemy employs thousands of people, each running hundreds of cell phones and hundreds of computers through gang software to control and create the impression they want. All right? The enemy is attempting this is an information war.

At this stage, they live and die by information. The more information we have, the weaker they become. They are desperate to muddy that and delay that and destroy our ability to get information any way they can. Thus all the censorship and all of these things. So all of these things tell us how weak they are because they're not in control.

If they were in control, they wouldn't have to censor us, they wouldn't give a rat to us what we were saying because they were in control. Just like in Australia, they don't care what the population says because the population doesn't have guns. And so basically they're in control. Now the population is starting to take different actions and so it's become a little bit upsetting down there, but so this is the war we face. So I'm able to say, because of the software I've written and the analysis I've run, that that process of controlling the dialogue on the media, on the social media, is breaking down very, very rapidly.

And so you are correct that people are saying this, but they're saying that they think they know they're awake and they just don't see it in the people around them. But their experience is altered and controlled by their enemy. So if they were to take another approach to that experience, they may find that the people around them that they think are asleep are not. So you have to go and talk to that person to see if they're awake. Right?

And so you may be able to you don't have the appropriate conversations with these individuals because it is not appropriate within the milieu that has been described for you and the paradigm you're operating in within the structure controlled by our enemy. Very soon now, it's already happening, but very soon here in the United States and throughout the rest of the world, there will become a certain level of openness and you will find a great many people that will also be able to describe that. I'm awake too. I just didn't want to say anything because I thought you were asleep. Right.

And now you've got people that are your relatives that are taking the shots and all of this kind of stuff. But a lot of these people that have taken the shots are waking up themselves because they're experiencing the death shot. So I've had numbers of people contact me to say, they took one shot, they're feeling so bad, what can they do? They're not ever going to take another one, blah, blah, blah. And so I give them what I hope I can in the way of their body, and then I point them to some areas that can assist them in aiding their mind and getting their head wrapped around all of this.

And so that's happening all over now. We can't believe the numbers that are coming out because the bad guys control the media, the evil controls the media. So of course they're going to tell you that over half of the United States has been jabbed. I don't think that's true. I think it's far, far, far less.

And I know millions of people that have gotten one shot and aren't going back for the next. I know this because I haunt the deep web and I have all this software that can go out and find stuff for me, right, and I've got conversations between parts of the deep state saying, well, shit, we've got 15 million doses of this stuff, we've got to get somewhere else. It's just going to go bad up here. These people are not coming back for the second shot. Yeah.

And so I see these things and so I know that this is available out there. Anybody can do this kind of research that I do right now. You could begin doing it on your own without my software, because there are so many people like ourselves that are doing their bit in this war, standing up and making videos, saying, look what I learned today. Yeah. And then that's all you have to do.

But you're not going to see it on the controlled media, so you're not going to see it on YouTube, right? You're going to see it on BitChute, Rumble, Odyssey, all of these other platforms. So as long as you're corralled, all you're going to see are the other sheep. If you've decided you're not a sheep anymore, you got to get out of the corral. Yeah.

Is there any hope? You're right. My parents have taken the vaccine and sorry, not the right word, but they've had the shot, the death shot. You control that language, can't help it.

They both did so reluctantly, and I think they regret having done so. They did it because peer pressure, all sorts of things. Is there any hope for them? Can people who've had the death shot do anything? Yes, there are things that can be done.

If you go to my Twitter feed, I put up an image of things that the vaccinated can do. There are things to do. The first thing you need to do is start having a dedimer test every six months, because the dedimer test looks for the debris in your blood that indicates you're having these microclots. The microclots are going to induce exertion intolerance. They're going to cause strokes, all of these other different kinds of problems for you.

And that's the real problem. If you're having those, you can get on blood thinners that at least eliminates that part of it. Yeah. There are remedial actions you can take to strip the material that was injected into you out of your body. So we know that the ibermectin binds the spike protein and puts it out through your gut.

So you excrete it or comes out of the urine. We know that nak, an acetylcysteine, provides cellular repair, clears the lungs and AIDS in the electrical charge in the blood and other effects. It also AIDS in boosting glutathione. If you take glutathione itself, then you can get rid of what's known as the SPIONs. These are the things that make the people magnetic.

These are super paramagnetic, iron oxide, nanoparticles. Glutathione will get rid of those C 60, which is this called butt. Mr. Fullernee this product here, C 60 in olive oil, induces apoptosis in cells and kills off the damaged cells that the spike protein is damaged. So you get them out of your body.

It also induces stem cells, so you'll replace those cells. So there are things you can do. You can take chaga to protect you from encountering the COVID Again, your problem as a vaccinated person is that your immune system has been damaged. It will continue to be damaged as long as you don't take remedial action. The very first time you encounter COVID, you will have a very bad reaction because your body has been primed for that reaction.

It's called pathogenic priming, or antibody dependent enhancement. And so you can do things there. One thing you can do is to prevent yourself from having a receptive cell. A receptive cell has a positive charge on the outside of it, and it allows the virus to attach to the outside of it. A cell has to be both receptive and permissive in order for the virus to take over that cell.

Just having cells that are not receptive means you won't encounter covet. It won't get into your body. You can do that by just walking around constantly, sipping on chaga tea, taking lots of vitamin D until your vitamin D is raised way up there, and so on and so on. So these routines are known and you can find this information on the Internet. And it does work.

That's good. I'm going to leap ahead to another question I was dying to ask you. The Bug, this super entity, on one level, it's extremely powerful because it's taken over. I mean, it's got humans at high levels to operate on its behalf. Is that right?

Am I right in thinking that people like Boris Johnson, the awful President Bieber of Canada, they're all kind of creatures of the Bug? They've just been brainwashed? Correct. They're mind controlled, and it's very subtle and very deep and very pervasive. The bug, in my understanding the bug was the very first thing I encountered in hyperspace.

Okay? I encountered this being that I thought all of hyperspace was like this first encounter and it is not okay because I popped into hyperspace in a bugs laboratory. I call them a bug, but they look basically like they're called mantids, but they look more like an ant. Being in hyperspace, when you pop into hyperspace because you're getting there from a psychedelic you don't have your body, your spherical because in space the sphere is the most efficient form. You can then express your body by remembering what you look like.

Very difficult under psychedelics to have this kind of mental control. That's why perhaps people like Joe Rogan only go to hyperspace for a few brief seconds and then come back out. But that people like myself that have some of the schizophrenic tendencies have some perhaps quirky genetics that make us more able to exist in there. But nonetheless, I encountered the bug at my very first entry into hyperspace and learned just from that encounter. And then when I encountered this other being, the guy who told me about the Vegas nervous system, he told me that they had to have the bug in their solar system and they had many planets in their solar system and they got rid of the bug and that they actually had the bug physically in their solar system and it was over a thousand years.

If I understand the numerics, numerics don't translate well in hyperspace, but if I understand it, it was over a thousand year war getting the bug thrown out of their solar system. And the bug is the most ancient of all of the life's life forms that this hominid that I was discussing the things with that his species had ever encountered. And so the bug is extremely ancient and it's an insect. That doesn't change, it's invariant. It doesn't like us.

We're noisy, we're psychic, we change all the time, we do things badly. According to it, the bug created communism. It created all of the top down hierarchical structures and we've existed under it for all of my life and for thousands of years because the bug put this on us at least 3000 years ago, if not much further. So on one level it's supremely powerful because it can control all these people, the people in positions of power. And it's been effectively ruling the world for 2000 or 700 years or longer.

And yet at the same time it seems to have weaknesses. It's very weak. How does that work? Okay, so they are insects. This other that I encountered, this first one is an insect.

And so I encountered a very ancient being, I don't know how old it was, probably several thousands of years. It was very powerful. Now it threw me out of its environment with its mind, basically. What are you doing here in my laboratory and kicked me out. I came back because I was so angry because all of these different reasons I have authority issues and I wasn't going to take this crap from an insect.

So I came back. Okay. And when I came back I discovered something. Even though I was a sphere, I could project power. Now at that point I'd been taking martial arts since I was eleven.

So I understood fighting and this sort of thing. And so I fought the bug with my mind and it was like freaked out that I came back. And then it was freaked out that I was able to throw a barrier up that prevented it from getting in at my thoughts. And then it was freaked out that I was able to project the barrier and push on. The bug took a great deal of energy and it threw me out of its environment that point into the rest of hyperspace.

So the bugs are powerful enough to be able to cordon off spaces in hyperspace and keep the rest of the activity out of there while they do their experiments and stuff. But the bugs are they don't have digits like we do. They're not manipulative. They don't have technology. They have to work through other beings and they have to do it at a resonance level that is always inimitable to those other beings because it's buglike and we're not bugs.

So there's always a tendency on the part of the other beings to break free because we don't want to be bugs and we don't want to think like bugs and act like bugs. So it is a part of universe, in this duality of universe, in Materia, the bug is not allowed to rule always, forever, constantly, because its very presence sets up the opposition to it. Right? Makes sense. I bet the bugs love the Chinese more than they love us.

This is the thing the bugs love. So they don't like black people, okay? The bug has decided the whites have to go. So there's a white people genocide going on now because they can control the other races easier. This is why the Wegars in China are being eliminated because they're Aryan, okay?

So they're Chinese white people, so to speak, right? And bug through all of its control mechanisms does not like sovereign individuals that are self actualizing. And so bug, you've got to join the hive. It's got to be a hive mind. So there are Chinese, there are 140 different racial groups in China's and there are Chinese subsets in there that are not cooperative with the bug.

We know that these are the people that are not cooperative. And so this is like the way Gars Ube, the Yao, these are the people that the CCB will not give vaccines to because they intend harvesting their organs, okay? And they know you can't sell a liver that's been vaccinated just as in this country in my country, you can't give blood if you've been vaccinated nor donate any organs. That should be a big damn thing to everyone. Yes.

That leads me to a question that I've been dying to ask you.

Okay. I had a good education. I was taught how to think. No, sorry, you were schooled. Okay.

When I went to university, I was blessed with a particularly brilliant tutor who enabled me to think for myself, to think critically. And I was very, very lucky. And I'm always grateful to him. It's the best thing that happened to me intellectually. But I wasn't the only one who had this education or this experience, let's say.

So why is it that why are so many people still now being taken in by this shit?

Because it's so pervasive and because the bug can think of they think out 1000 years and then they work all the way back to this moment to figure out what they're going to need for that thousand year plan. The bug understands emotions even though it doesn't have them. It attempts to manipulate emotions and frequently goes overboard, but it understands them, but it does not experience them. And so this is our key thing. I know emotionality, as I was told on one of the journeys to hyperspace, is the key to breaking free of the book.

You can break mind control if you can get the emotions whipped up enough. Our mind control is from the minute you are born. Okay? So the mind control starts everywhere. So people males are circumcised as infants as an act of mind control.

I can tell you this right now, but it's not as you think. It's not as you're thinking right now. Circumcised males have lost between 2 million and 5 million sensors. These sensors react to hormones produced by the women that they're having sex with. It is these hormonal receptors that allow for males to mate for life because of the bonding that takes place during that intercourse at the hormonal level.

Absent in all cultures. In all cultures where circumcision is practiced, divorce rates are 50% or higher. In cultures where you don't have circumcision, look at what you have. I, as an example, am not circumcised. I've been married for 48 years.

Okay? This is a rarity in our social order. That is how deep this goes. Specifically targeting 2 million receptors because of the effect on the brain later on. So why is there a huge struggle?

You have to ask yourself. You can go down these rabbit holes. Here's another weird rabbit hole for you. OK, straws. Straws and sippy cups.

Yeah, straws and sippy cups alter the brain. And so if you want to grow up to be an actual selfactualizing male I cannot speak for females because I'm not one. Right? And I'll never be one. This is the nature of reality.

I'll never be born reincarnated as a female. I will always be male. But if you want to grow up as a selfactualizing male. Don't drink from straws, because there's a different function in drinking from a straw that shapes your mouth differently, changes the nature of your jaw, changes the nature of your throat, and affects big chunks of your brain. And the longer you sip on straws and little sippy things, the longer you will be infantile.

Wow. It's a bit late for me now to go back into my youth and not drink. But you can change. You will see a remarkable change in as little as six months, eliminating all sucking motions. Wow.

So no cocktails, or at least by martinis if you had a drink? No. If you had a drink, you need to take that full. There's a different action in the throat. It is difficult for people that sip a lot to get a custom and climate change to that.

And as soon as they do, it will really start changing your brain and how you carry yourself in reality. What do I need to do? Tell me. Just take a regular cup. No straw or anything.

Don't suck your lip with liquids. Take a mouthful and drink it and swallow. Oh, I see. Yes. But that makes it harder to drink it when it's hot.

Well, there's something else. Yeah. Look at our diets and the things that we do. So I'm an iconoclast. I don't do things the way that other people do.

I examine everything before I'll do it and so forth. It takes me a long time to examine stuff, but I examine the frequency of the lights. I examine how I drink and all of these different kinds of things and adopt those things that make sense. Our social order is so taken over by the bug that it affects whether or not you arrive with a foreskin in life. Right.

So every aspect of our lives are being controlled by things. And if you examine these things with the idea sort of asking yourself, is the bug doing this? Is this something that is beneficial for the bug? By changing the social order, you will see a great many things that are indeed that way. That's extraordinary.

So what can we do? People are going to be desperate to know what can we do to prepare ourselves for the shit storm that's coming? What's your advice? Well, you have very little time. Okay.

Because the next thing that's up the sock is already today. We're in the midst of the economic breakdown, so the financial system is breaking down such that our economy can be freed. You and I have never lived our lives in a sound money situation. I touched one 10th sound money in the form of silver coins when I was a kid, but they were withdrawn from circulation before I was, like, two or three years old. So sound money is coming.

It will change the global economy, and we will truly have prosperity based on that. But there is no quantum financial system. There's no Nisara, no socialist reengineering. Nobody's going to put money in your bank account. Banks are going to fail.

Vast quantities of banks around the planet are going to fail. Huge industries are going to fail. We have to restructure our entire social order for humanity. It's going to take decades, perhaps hundreds of years. We're beginning it in earnest as of a few weeks ago and the Chinese bonds are starting to crumble.

The bond situation is going to take down the rest of the banking system. It's happening now. So you need to look at your immediate needs for the next six to eight months and then start getting together with neighbors and friends and forming communities to get through this all this time. We're still going to have the oppressors trying to oppress us. So we have to do this stuff knowing that they're out there trying to oppress us and doing things.

And we have to take actions around that oppression to maintain ourselves over these next few months as we get into this, the horror time. And the horror time is going to be threefold. It's going to be the financial structure system collapsing and that's going to have impacts on food and all kinds of social stuff. There's also going to be tons of information coming out about evil and how evil things have been and for how long they've been. We're all going to be forced to deal with it.

And then on the other side of that is the dieoff, the evil and the exposure and the financial system crumbling have to come ahead of January and the beginning of next year, the depth of winter in northern hemisphere because that's when the diaphragm to come and we're going to be really occupied in that for a long time. We've got to get our minds right ahead of that. So the sock is doing things now in my opinion, that I've sussed out. It's doing things now to bring these things to a head fairly rapidly. And something else that will be coming out is the audits here in the United States that will show that indeed Trump won all 50 states and indeed it was the largest ever, most massive steel of votes.

And indeed every single country on this planet that uses machine counted votes has to look at what they've been doing. So it's not just audit Arizona. It's not just audit one county in Arizona. It's not just audit that state. It's audit all states, all countries because we've all been captured and that's coming out.

So when that comes out, mindset changes and the people around you will start changing. Even if they've never looked at your podcast, you will see them changing and you'll know, that's good to hear. Where are you on gold? I mean, should one buy physical gold? Is that a good thing?

Yeah, I love this stuff. Okay, so here's the thing. So I was just talking about this with Greg hunter. Cryptos are good because they're not controlled by the bug. It wants centralized digital currency, not decentralized.

The cryptos were released by the sock back when, all right? It was designed for that purpose. I like gold and silver because we're going to be trading with that. We're going to have a period of time after the financial system crashes that we have to rebuild our economy during this very terrible time where we're getting all this ugly information and people are dying in that period of time. We will need sound money.

We will have terrible, terrible circumstances. There won't be much to buy, all right? But for those things that you're going to buy, you can get cash because cash will still trade for some period coins and bills, and you can get gold and silver to be used there as well, and also with crypto. Cryptos will continue and will preserve value. But we're going to get into a funny situation as of next january.

And that funny situation could be phrased this way, that we may go into January with, say, bitcoin at $100,000 per bitcoin, and we may come out of January with bitcoin being worth $9,000. Okay? But it won't be 9000 petro dollars. It'll be 9000 new dollars with their new purchasing power such that bitcoin per se hasn't lost any of its purchasing power, even though it may have lost 90% of its petrodollar valuation. Yes, I see that.

Okay, so food, cryptos, gold. Here's the other thing, too. We're in a period of shortages, so things that require maintenance, you better get those parts. Anything requiring a chip, forget it. You have to figure out something else to do for that device when it breaks down because you won't be able to replace that chip.

So if you need clothing for the winter, you better buy it now. It may not be available this winter. We won't have supply chain and shipping and so on. The war is about to come out into the public. When that does, we can expect some responses and reprisals from the deep state as it is fighting this retreating action.

And it will do everything it can to harm as many humans as it can during that period of time that it's getting beat down. Hopefully this is the only hopeium, is that I personally think that there are reasons to suspect we will not go to a national to national war. So in other words, they could devolve. This is what they wanted. They wanted China to defeat the US.

And the west in a nuclear exchange. Hopefully that need not occur now. Okay? Hopefully we're past that. Now that their plans are so disrupted, we know that they're losing.

There's great many areas of evidence to suggest that the bug and his group are losing and it's just a matter of time before and that we must take these steps. So basically it's like Gandhi facing the people during the salt marshes, right? He was going there to get salt and he knew he was going to be beat, but he had to take the beating. And that's where we're at now. We've got tough times ahead of us.

We'll survive them, but we're going to get injured in that tough time and we're just going to have to take the pain because we're there now. Yeah.

Why are the Cabal so into pedophilia and child sacrifice and stuff like that? Longevity Adrenal. You ever see the movie Monsters Inc. Yeah. Okay?

That's all about adrenochrome. All of these monsters, the Cabal were going into children's bedrooms to make them fearful and scream and cry. That's what they have to do to produce Adrenochrome. So here's a terrible secret for everyone. Schizophrenics die most frequently from Adrenochrome overdoses.

Schizophrenics rarely die of cancer. I had a terrible cancer that was 30 years undiagnosed and I suffered greatly for 30 years and when they cut it out of me, not a sign of metastasizer, but it was growing for 30 years, okay, all my lymph nodes are clean and so on. Something about Schizophrenics protects us from dying from cancer. Not that we don't get it, we just don't usually die from it. That something is the fact that Schizophrenics run with their Adrenals just going constantly.

When your Adrenal complex goes constantly, it degrades your body but it produces Adrenochrome, which is the oxidized form of the Adrenal hormones. People that are not Schizophrenics that take Adrenochrome find that it is a longevity substance, that it restores youthful function and sometimes youthful appearance as well to a huge degree and it is super psychedelic, okay? And this is why Schizophrenics are always not there, it's because they're constantly under psychedelic load. Adriacrom also may be what protects me in hyperspace because I was, I think, a fully formed Schizophrenic and should have died before my brother. But in an early age I became aware of my mental illness and I deliberately set out to kill myself or cure myself with psychedelics and I did both.

So I think that has protected me and given me something of a view of this. But I know that the Adrenochrome is the whole goal for the Powers that Beat. Now the bug on the other side of that doesn't care if these guys live or die or how long they live or so on, right, but it needs something to motivate them and Adrenochrome is the ultimate drug, you get it from a living adrenal gland can't be extracted from a corpse, okay? So it is the most horrific thing you've ever started to even think about and that's coming out. You're going to get inundated about information about this and it is going to be truly, truly horrifying.

And so many people are going to exit this planet because of the circumstances that they're going to be facing. They will not want to live with it, they just won't. Even want to think about it. Can you explain that? You mean the bad guys are the good guys?

No, the normies. So many of the norms are going to be shocked at what has been going on and how industrialized it is. Okay, so there are a lot of the bug adherence, there are a lot of the powers that be, they need a lot of adrenochrome. So right now on this planet, there are more slaves than have ever existed in all of humanity's history. There are more children now dying to produce adrenochrome than you can possibly imagine.

And it is a production, it is an industrialized process. And this, if you plug that in, so if you plug in the idea that they're trying to kill us and you keep plugging in all these horrific ideas, all of reality will make sense to you. So this makes sense of all of the horrors going on at the southern border here. This makes sense of all of the grooming gangs in the UK, all of the mass immigration. This makes sense as to why Soros is paying for all of this.

It makes sense as to why Soros is on his 12th liver and his 7th heart. Yeah. Are we going to get killed saying this stuff?

There had been a time ten or 15 years ago that that might have been the case. No longer is that the case. Too many people are talking about it. There are individuals that they won't touch for whatever reason. I don't know that individuals are protected, but there are individuals that can say things and get away with it.

And others don't know me. I'm paranoid. I'm assuming people are trying to kill me. I've got stalkers, I live in a walled compound, I'm heavily armed just because people try and stalk me. I'm a 40 year martial arts veteran and so I know people are trying to kill me.

And so it's just an ordinary part of life. They're not specifically trying to kill me for this anymore because this information is out there too much. Right, I see. Yeah. Well, I'm assuming that if they kill me, at least I go to heaven.

Exactly. And you'll never suffer, so they just bring you that much closer to your rewards. Now, in that process, by the way, in your medium psychoses, the more activity you do here on Earth in a given life, that lengthens the medium psychosis. So you will see instances of people, especially in India, where a child says he's got two families, he's five, remembers his previous life, they can go back and tell you all his previous brothers and all of this kind of thing. And that was an individual that died young and didn't do much in his life.

So his medium psychosis, the time between lives was very short for all of us, you included, that are out here broadcasting and putting themselves out and doing all of this stuff. We're doing a lot in this life. And so we can expect that our medium psychosis will be very long indeed because you go through heaven and hell. The hell is the part of your soul being reducing all of its experience down into the intuition that you'll take into your next life. And then the heaven is where you are.

Your consciousness is during that period of time. And this is what is called the long rest or the long sleep. And so it's a really complicated guy. The woo is deep and it is very old. But there are people now, Obama I know for sure and the man that he claims to be, Michelle, his wife, I know both of these individuals to be participants in what I call the war through time.

And so there are things you can do to affect how and where and when you are reborn. Some of us will not do that because it has consequences. Others in the service of the bug, they do do that. And so this is why you will see Obama going to visit a statue in Egypt that looks exactly like him carved several thousand years ago because in his previous life that was him. Right.

And he had a long medium psychosis, a long rest, and popped out into this life. And so this also, if you plug in these things, a lot of this stuff starts making even more sense. Yeah, well, presumably I hope there are bad consequences for this kind of shit that they do. Yes, they can delay and delay and delay, but the scales are here now. The time that these things occur that come out are the shift of ages.

Astrology is us looking at the energies of life and making certain categories and decisions about them. But those energies exist whether we would care to examine them or not. And so as we change from the Age of PISCES into the Age of Aquarius, as we have done, certain energies are now popping in that didn't exist in the past and we are responding to those. It is at these cusp points, these great changes that you find things happening to the planet such as we are going through right now. And it is at these periods of time that the scales of justice are balanced.

And so there's a lot of misery coming to our enemies. Yes, yes. But ultimate reward for the good guys, I mean, presumably good does get rewarded ultimately by the universe or whatever. That's above my pay grade. I don't make those kinds of decisions.

Right, right. Because then you have to what is a reward? Who would be giving the reward? That implies an ownership of the being that's being rewarded and so on. So I don't know.

The universe quite works that way. I know that we are here to learn what to do and what not to do and that I know that when we go into our medium psychosis. We allow the changes that we experience here to alter our beings. Bear in mind that we're permanent beings, eternal beings that are simply mortal. Okay?

We live many lives. We're not eternal, we're not immortal, but we are eternal. And so we allow ourselves to be changed so we can grow. And this, again is a great boon to not be static and constant the way everything is in the land of permanence. So in my reality here, things are as they are.

But I don't answer why questions because that goes to intent and I can never suss out intent. And I just basically attempt to look and accept and make decisions based on what I see. Well, Cliff, I've so enjoyed this and it's going to just completely blow people's minds, which of course is exactly what you want. Very quickly, when you talk about psychedelics, which ones you're talking about? DMT.

Iwasca DMT is too quick. I like masculine and I like shrooms. I like yellow teachers or Thai teachers. It's a particular type of psilocybubensis. But when I take mushrooms, I take shamanic level doses.

Right. I don't do these things as recreational, so I used to make my own mescaline, which is taken from the San Pedro cactus from Peyote. And masculine, in my opinion, is the best for reaching and sustaining time in hyperspace. It is not a particularly good psychedelic relative to the other uses, like getting off of smoking or quitting opiates. Right?

You're better off taking mushrooms. Never take LSD or any of the synthetics if you want to get the hyperspace. They just will not bust you through. DMT will bust you through, but it's going to haul you back real quick. Okay, that's good.

Yes. Anyway, I'm sorry, I've got my supper waiting for me and I measured it's late. Well, while we still got food available. But Cliff, it's been fantastic. I've so enjoyed this.

And just my remind my listeners, please support me on patreon and SubscribeStar if my website is working again. If you didn't at the moment, you can support me on PayPal as well and check out Cliff's other do you want to plug anything? Cliff, have you got any? No, I'm old. Retired guy.

I got into bitcoin. I don't need to sell things. Yes, so hold on to cryptos and are there any other things that I want to know about that? No, that's basically it. Okay, we're going to go through tough times.

We'll pull out. Cool. Okay. Thanks a lot, Cliff. It's been great to talk to you.

Okay. Okay. Yeah. Bye bye. Thank you.

Bye.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity. That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com. This report covers your future world from July 2016 through to 2031. Forecasts are created using predictive linguistics (from the inventor) and cover your planet, your population, your economy and markets, and your Space Goat Farts where you will find all the 'unknown' and 'officially denied' woo-woo that will be shaping your environment over these next few decades.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.
