🔥🔥🔥THE END GAME;LAST ROUND With Clif High Rafi Farber & Jean-Claude - 03-18-2023
I'm John Claude Ebion Mystic, and welcome to this Saturday special report. This is another episode in the bank run and banking failure series. With me today? Of course. Is Mr.
Rafi farber? You can find him on his patreon here at Endgame Investor and also here on Seeking Alpha, as well as on his YouTube channel at Rafi Farbert. Rafi, welcome back to the show. How are you? Thanks for having me, John Claude.
I am good. Glad to be back into the world after my Sabbath. Thank you for being here. I really appreciate your time. And folks, as the poster says, also let's welcome the amazing Cliff High for this in game last round episode here today.
You can find Cliff, of course, on his Bitchute channel here at bitchute. Comcliffe. And you can find all of his work also here on the substat at cliffhigh. Cliff, welcome back to the show. How are you today?
Doing fine. Cold. Cold indeed. And, oh my God, it's about to get really hot. Is it climate change denial to say that it's cold?
Can we say that? Are we laughing? No, that's climate denying. They cut the change word right out of there and they just go right to it. Climate.
Exactly. Okay, folks, just for the rules here for today, as always with this banking run series, we're going to do the first five or ten minutes here on YouTube to kind of set the stage and also abide very politely to all of these rules here on YouTube. And then we're going to switch directly into our Rumble feed. Let me bring the link for you, the audience, here to the Rumble program where we're going to have this noble barred conversation. So the link is now in the live chat.
Cliff, in your last substance, let me start with you here. You were talking about this banking ugly, and you also produced this last video on Bitchute called Mass. We seem to be entering a very different period of time here where we're jumping in from that top timeline there since the bad things that happen in the mid century here with one of our presidents to the creation of this self organizing collective. Can you, for the sake of the audience members here, explain the worst scenario we find ourselves in and how, as you're pointing out to here on the screen, we're about to switch into a very unscripted part of this self organizing collective. Can you set that up for the audience, please, Cliff?
Not easily, not quickly. That's the real problem. This stuff is complicated. There's a lot of moving parts and each of the parts are complex. But here's the deal, right?
We're at the end of the global fiat currency system that was built on top of the activities in 1913. So most of the central banks did not exist prior to the Federal Reserve coming into existence. They are all leveraged off of the point of that pyramid. And it's wobbly. And so the conditions of the failure of the fiat currency engender war.
Thus we have wars all over, right, because people are anxious, their money's gone, there's no wealth. Someone's stealing everything by way of debt on their instrument of currency. And so at the end of time, when there's only debt left into the currency and no purchasing power, then things get real ugly. And we're just getting into the peak of the big ugly, which my data had shown would take off from March and Arc through to an emotional peak. Not an activity peak, not an economic peak, but an emotional peak that will strike us sometime.
June ish okay, maybe the middle of June or so, right? And it's going to get really ugly from May onward. Well, it's getting ugly starting today, but okay, very good. And of course, we're seeing I'll bring up the videos here, the writers in France. We're not hearing much of that in mainstream news, but of course, you're protesting the pension reforms, the austerity there, and the fact that we're at this endgame and there's no more money left here and the social order is broken.
Rafi, you've been doing amazing reports here on your Rafi Farber on YouTube, as well as your collaboration with Arcadia Economics. I point out those videos here to the audience members as best I can. You're doing amazing work. Can you set the stage also from your perspective of what's happening here, not just with the banking system, but as I just discussed here, the fact that the social order is breaking and we're now seeing this eruption of violence around the world. How do you think moving forward here in the next couple of days and weeks, all of that is going to unfold?
Rafi, it days and weeks. I don't know what's going to happen in the next days and weeks. I try not to make short term predictions on that time scale because anything could happen in the next days and weeks. I just know what's going to happen in the end game. That is going to be the collapse of the dollar entirely.
And people think that it's scary and maybe there's going to be some social disjointedness and rioting, et cetera. But I try not to think of that and I try to stay positive and think of the positive aspects of it, really in a financial collapse like this, where the bottom of the pyramid on which everything is based is gold and silver, because that's how the dollar started. That's how the whole current the current currency system started, like Bretton Woods was based on a gold resumability. And the skeleton that we have now is just the structure of Bretton Woods without the content of it. So what happens at the end is that hopefully actual things don't get destroyed, at least not in huge quantities.
You could argue that there's going to be nuclear war, and I'm not going to say that there is. I don't want to even think about that. But assuming most of the stuff that was produced in the boom, in the false bubble boom exists at the end of it, then all you have is a shift of purchasing power from people who hold fake money to people who hold the real money. So all the purchasing power will be in the hands of the people who own gold and silver. And that's what I want to look forward to.
Because the people that are smart enough to realize that gold and silver are money and understand that and hold through all the crazy ups and downs and still understand the reality of what we're in. Those are the people that I want to have the most money and the most power. Because they are the ones that are the sanest people and understand how society functions. And that economics is a study of scarcity and choice, and you can't just print things into existence. So I'm hoping that the world is better things into existence.
Rafi of course, here at the LME, people are left with holding bags of rocks here as opposed to the actual metal. This just broke it the other day. We did look at the LME earlier this year, and there's scandal there. Cliff as Rafi is saying here, we're getting into this period of time where people are going to get a very quick education as to what is the fiat currency versus real sound money. You're projecting here that there is going to be perhaps two or three resets here offered to the population as we go through the systemic collapse of the old systems into the new.
Of course, we have Pluto the Destroyer that comes into alignment here March 23. So it seems to be all timing also with the astrological bodies. Talk about that evolution here. We're about to live in this new money system and this new world and this new Sci-Fi world we're going into. And then after that segment, we'll move right into the rumble fee.
Go ahead, Cliff. Okay, real quick, rafi is correct, but let's make the distinction between the dollar and the Fern, okay? The Federal Reserve note, because rafi everybody, including myself, I say dollar, but I'm really referring to the Fern. It's not a treasury issued dollar, but he's 100% correct. Everything is balanced on the tip of gold, and the whole pyramid is going to fall over.
In my opinion. We cannot avoid the social unrest and discord because of the emotionality that is attached to the fiat currency that must be shed along with the debt of the currency itself. So people that as he's saying, he wants the sound money people to have money at the end of this, and I'm quite confident that they shall because they have gold and silver. Okay? However, you're going to have a whole lot of people that don't have sound money, and they're going to have a whole lot of venting to do as a result of what little purchasing power was in their hands, totally being stolen from them in real time by its evaporation, with the system itself collapsing.
And it is that system that is built on top of the original sound money that subsume the sound money with credit, with illusion and everything that must be shed. We all, as humanity, have 140 last count central banks that are participating in this illusion. There will be, in my opinion, a level of Angst and histrionics storm undrung that we're getting into this now that has never before been witnessed. If you are lucky enough, like my expat friends, to be living in Russia, then you will be relatively isolated from a lot of the anxiety that's going to be coming along, right? Because here's something that people are missing.
All of this is going to funnel over a very short period of time from the western liberal republics to the Chinese banking system, which is owed vast quantities of money and has all these credit swaps and stuff going in fiat currency with the western liberal republics. They're going to catch currency COVID, so to speak, as our banking system goes down. The ripples cannot be underestimated, in my opinion. So right now, the Chinese are calling themselves the land of empty containers, okay? The slang term for China, that's how they're referring it to it now.
But in the banking system, there's another term that is gaining ground in China, and that's the land of the empty vault. And that's been showing up in the last three weeks in my scanning of their verbiage right, of their conversations. So we're getting very close. This is why I'm able to predict this kind of stuff, because language precedes activity, usually in all cases before a human becomes histrionic, they say something that will give you an indication that there's going to be this emotional outburst. I don't care if it's one on one or on Moss.
And so I've been following the big mass of it all, and we're right there now. And folks, I invite you to go check out the mass video cliff just produced here on March 13. You can find that on his bitchute. Guys, we're about to switch over now to the Rumble feed. So thank you so much for watching here on the YouTube channel.
Let me bring the Rumble link back in the live link for you guys here now. And please do come over to Rumble as we detach here from the YouTube feed now remove. Okay, so we're running now live only on Rumble, folks. Thank you so much, everyone, for joining us here on Rumble. Appreciate the live chat and the comments.
Please remember to follow here as we're producing more and more of this content here that is just simply not allowed on other platforms for now. And we do really much appreciate all of your support and following us here, of course, if you don't want to miss a beat. Rafi, what started last year last year, last week seems like a year ago already with all the news cycles. And yes, everything is going wild and crazy, but what started with this Silicon Valley Bank now has erupted into a kinsey Swiss problem. You mentioned that in your last report here with Arcadia Economics.
Can you bring that to the attention of the viewers here and explain also why we're seeing some other bank activities now starting to extricate themselves from their dealings with the Credit Suisse and how that protends? Perhaps the same type of fallout, maybe on a bigger scale that we saw in 2008. Go ahead, Rafi. Are you talking about Credit Suisse? Yes.
Well, first, quickly to respond to something that Cliff Said talks about histrionics. Histrionics comes from the root of a history or a womb. So a uterus. In the same way, we're all kind of being reborn and it's going to be a rough second birth or third birth or whatever birth you want to call this. But yeah, we're in labor now.
It's going to be rough about Credit Suisse. Okay, so we start with Silicon Valley Bank. And what was happening there was they had a bunch of bonds in their balance sheet, which there's a narrative that I don't want to say the word narrative. I hate the word narrative. There's an opinion that Silicon Valley Bank just made mistakes or they have a woke board, which they do, and they're stupid because they're woke and they just made bad decisions.
And I'm not excusing their wokeness, but I'm saying when you're stuck in a fractional reserve fiat system like this, the ones that are going to get screwed over first are the ones on the margin, which was Silicon Valley. Bank, which specialized in extremely low interest rate loaning to these crazy tech companies that had imaginary cash flows out in the 2030 years from now. Whatever it was. So they need the lowest interest rate, so they collapse. Also, they loan to all the fake meat companies, all the plants that can't sell their products.
Yeah, obviously wokeness had a role here, but it was inevitable. And yeah, the people on the margin, the dumbest banks are going to be the ones first, but it's going to filter into the core, and we're seeing it in Credit Suisse. And what's important about Credit Suisse is that this term is thrown around like counterparty risk. I know what that is, but it's like a code that we're supposed to understand exactly what that means. It means that Credit Suisse holds like $500 billion.
I may get the number wrong, I didn't check, but it's in the hundreds of billions of dollars worth of derivatives that they are the counterparty to. When somebody, let's say a bullion bank or some other hedger wants to hedge wheat prices or gold prices or whatever it is they're doing, and they open up a short position or even a long position. The other side of that is usually a systemically important bank like Credit Suisse. And so if somebody's hedging a futures position, hedging a physical position with futures or even a bullion bank who's hedging gold and shorting gold and staying long in London or whatever they're doing, the counterparty is a bank like Credit Suisse. So if Credit Suisse goes down and somebody has a futures position being hedged in some kind of exchange somewhere, and all of a sudden the Credit Suisse goes down, then his position gets screwed over, and he can't get his counterparty to pay up if he wins the bet.
So then you have the entire futures market of every commodity, including gold and silver and consumables just closing positions and open interests falling and falling and falling. And then you have a short squeeze in every single commodity in every single futures market on the planet at the same time. That's what happens if An Sib falls over, because they're the ones who own the other side of the derivative positions. So they cannot let Credit Suisse go down. They have to keep inflating.
Or if they don't inflate, then all the commodities markets and the futures markets close their positions, and then you're down to just the physical supply, and then you have hyperinflation that way. Either way, you're looking at the same thing. And what's interesting here with Criti Swiss, a lot of analysts were saying that they were running this long bond lawn stock, short gold trade here for a number of years, and they might be at the point now where they have to pivot that particular trade. Now, what's interesting this week, Saudi Arabia announced that they were pulling their support from critic Suisse. Cliff, how does that tie into the death of the world currency?
The fact that the Saudis last year made an agreement with Russia, effectively supplanting the deal that Nixon and Kissinger had made for the petrol dollar in 71. How do you see that into the timeline here of the death of the petrol dollar? The fact that the people are moving away from the petrol dollar with the BRICS nation and how that is leading to what you have termed here American Revolution 2.0? Go ahead. Well, a couple of things.
We know that Yellen is concerned exactly about the same point that Rafi is bringing up, okay? Because in her talk in front of Congress, some things leaked out. One of the things that leaked out was and she never confirmed it, but she didn't deny it because she couldn't, because she had just said it, in essence, was that if you are a depositor in one of their preferred banks, then you will be made whole. But if you're not, you won't. And so this is causing some consternation among all the locals, all the let me just interrupt you there, Cliff, just for a second.
Yes, guys, that's the press release. Cliff is talking about. You can find that on the Federal Reserve dot gov website here. They're talking about eligible depository institution, meaning some are not eligible. So, Cliff, keep going.
Yeah. So we know that this is the case. We know that they want to crush the locals and the communities in order that at some point in the future, they may attempt to drive us into the central bank digital currency. Their first go round. The first rollout of this is scheduled for July with this thing called Fed now Payment, which they've modeled curiously on, software wise, on PayPal, oddly enough.
Okay, but here's the thing. The contagion aspect of this is very real. We're seeing that now. People are freaking out now about this word that was deliberately let loose by yellen about not being safe in these small and other banks. So they want to cause this reaction.
They never do this stuff accidentally or any of that. So this was a designed reaction and it's led to all kinds of purchases of precious metals, starting with the day of that speech, as people get out of the local and other banks, but not necessarily move into what would be thought of as one of the big five bullion banks, et cetera. Right, yeah, I'm just talking to some metal people and they're working their asses off here real quick on this.
The death of fiat currency always causes social unrest and social disruption because it is a wealth transfer. All right? So as Rafi is saying, those people that were smart enough to buy precious metals, and I disagree with them, also smart enough to buy Bitcoin. I like bitcoin's. Utility of international settlements and instant wire transfers and still retaining value.
But those people that have those are going to be able to or they're going to be the top of the heap as the heap rolls over, so to speak, right? Because we're down at the bottom of that pyramid, it's going to go flop, flop, and we'll be up on the top of the pyramid in terms of the purchasing power and so on. But that leaves a lot of the pyramid in this particular time uncovered in a way that's never been seen before. So let me just sketch to you real quickly here that there were at least 30 circulating currencies in pre revolutionary North America. We had French currencies.
In fact, a lot of our United States coinage was modified French coins. But the point being that we used to be a multi currency, but almost all of those currencies related to gold or silver, where it had some element of it in there. When the financial system that was the colonies at that time collapsed with the revolution against the British, they didn't ship goods over anymore. It's going to be very akin then to what's happening now. So we're not getting anything from China.
As our money crashes, more ships that are out in the Pacific will turn around. I kid you not. They'll turn around. The Chinese will just keep the money and keep the goods because there's no point in delivering them. We're getting to that level of disruption.
We are at the same level that they had in the colonies at that time. And that is that we've got to become self sufficient and we've got to do it really quick because we have no other option. So in a way, this is brutal to say it because we're going to go through a brutally ugly time, but I'm one of those guys that if I'm going to get in a fight, I'm in it all the way, right? There is victory or death. Nothing short of that, right?
If I'm going to get wounded, I will take my pain now. So when I was a kid, I'll just tell you this real quick. I accidentally burned the bottom of my foot on a wood stove, right? I was asleep. I fell over.
It hit the metal third degree burn on the bottom of my foot for about six or 8 hours. I tried to eliminate the pain by going outside and putting the foot in the snow. And it kept me up all night and it did. But as soon as you take out of that snow, it start hurting again, right? So I learned my lesson then.
I take my pain now. I eat it all now. That's what the US. Is going to have to do. We're going to have to learn to be tough, get tough and take our pain now because we're at that point.
So in my opinion, we're going through something that will be far greater than the greatest depression ever to hit this planet in modern history, and it will totally disrupt the society that we have now. And when we come out on the other side, I expect a few years from now that we will not have perhaps 90% of the federal government that exists right now in my country, right? And that my country will not be at risk of being seized by an international cartel to go and bomb some other bastard in some other bastards country, right? Okay. So it's my people that have always died.
I'm a military guy, right? Military brat. And we are the ones that have always died for these assholes that have international, globalists, that have set us fighting the Vietnamese, the Koreans, et cetera, et cetera. And so I am looking forward to this, taking my pain now that that should not occur again. Well, okay, thank you so much for that, Cliff.
Guys, please rewind and listen to that again. And speaking of burning your feet, Cliff, at my dojo, we were doing these firewalk seminars. And I know the feeling you're having to put your feet in cold snow after this. It really helps. Ralphie, let me go back to you here on the terms of the haircut.
We're about to live here now, David Morgan was reporting this. This is a video that came out in December. We also did a decode on this suggesting that the banks knew here in the FDIC, the bank of International Settlements knew that the depositors would in fact be getting a haircut here in the very near future. And in this roundtable discussion, they were suggesting, debating, because their role is to protect the deposits and protect the depositors, but at the same time, letting them know that there was a problem at the bank and that they could suffer a haircut could, in fact, create a stronger and more rapid bank run. It seems that we're in that process now.
But speak to that. First of all, Rafi, this haircut, how you see this, perhaps transpiring, and also share with the audience members your understanding of how the silver stackers right now are going to be. The people who are going to reboot here in terms of the division of labor. Set that up for the audience members so they understand how important the role is. It's not just taking your money out of harm's way and moving it on the sideline to have dry powder to step into this new world, but also their role in rebooting here, the division of labor.
Go ahead, Rafi. Yeah, so about that video. I did see it. I don't think there's going to be a haircut nominally, I don't think, like, let's say somebody has $100,000 in his bank account. He's going to have to take a haircut of 25% and wake up tomorrow with seeing the number 75,000.
That's too obvious. It's too obvious of a theft, and it will result in a global bank run. Everyone will take all money they can out of the banking system and put it into anything else, not trusting. And the only way they could stop that is with laws. And laws won't stop it.
It'll just delay it until somebody finds a workaround with a whole bunch of money laundering fees involved.
There's going to be no nominal haircut. I seriously doubt it. But there will be a hyperinflationary haircut, meaning the $100,000 that you own today in your account could be worth $10,000 in purchasing power a week from now. I'm not saying in a week that's going to happen, but I'm saying theoretically, it's possible. And at some point that's going to happen.
Well, essentially, just to back you up here, the Fed basically announced that they're covering 100% of deposits here in terms of eligible deposits. So they're going way past the 250,000 FDIC limit. This would be the set up for that hyperinflationary event you're talking about. Yeah, because if they didn't do that, then there'd be a bank run, and then it would be the end of the monetary system anyway. They're being cornered.
I mean, they try to go one direction or another but they have increasingly less wiggle room and they have to keep going towards that hyperinflationary singularity in terms of silver stackers and the responsibility of silver stackers for the world. Meaning that the only way a division of labor works and the only reason that we're fed and that I can wake up tomorrow and then go to supermarket and know that I can buy my food and know that I can survive the day is because of a vision of labor. And the only way a division of labor works is because money retains value where people know how much they have to spend and how much they have to work in order to maintain whatever standard of living they want to maintain. If you can't calculate that, then you have no idea what you're supposed to be doing the next day, and you have no idea how much you have to how much you have to earn or how much you have to spend. You can't calculate, so you can't do anything.
So then you have no division of labor, and then you stop doing things. Then if everybody does that, then everybody starves to death. So that's not going to work. So how do you save that? Well, you're going to need some kind of divisible money.
And since all currencies and the entire monetary system is still based on gold and silver now, then they're going to have to go back to physical gold and silver in the initial stages of an explosion, of a monetary explosion. So the stackers will be responsible for maintaining the essentials of a division of labor. They're not going to be responsible for saving, like some gender studies professor in Berkeley who's talking about how men and women don't exist. I mean, he's got no place in division of labor anymore because nobody wants what he does or what he says. And most of academia is going to go down to nothing.
And most of all, the excess fat and all the systems that we have in the global economy, they're going to go away. But people who grow food, people are going to want to pay them stuff.
So you're going to be able to pay somebody to grow food for you, which I'm pretty sure everyone's going to want. So that's what the silver stackers will do, they will be responsible for. We just flushed the toilet of all the fiat garbage, so now it's empty. We got to fill it up with something. So we filled the plumbing system with silver, make it stable.
That's the job of the silver stackers, to literally save what is left of the division of labor, the essential parts of it, so people can survive. Very good. Thank you for that rafi. Now, Cliff, you're not in your head there too. I want to go back to this fed now and the fact that in your web auditor reports, I believe they were starting in 2016 or 17, you were talking about these two or three resets.
And for the audience members are watching the show right now. They're like, okay, what the hell do I do? I know I can't leave my money in the bank, but where do I go? Do I go with the Cbdc? Do I go with the decentralized coin?
Do I go with cash under my mattress for a period of time? Is it all of the above? And why, Cliff? How do we navigate all of this here, moving forward? Okay, so it is all of the above.
You want to be diversified because things are uncertain. So we're coming to a period of maximum uncertainty. In periods of maximum uncertainty, you want to spread your options as wide as you possibly can and be prepared to follow those that may pan out for you, right? But that means that maybe you're just going to have to let some other stuff go away. So maybe you would put a little bit of money in a bank, get a little bit of silver, buy a little bit of food, buy a little bit of seeds, and in the end of it all, maybe the bank will go away.
But you'll have the silver, the food and the seeds, right? That kind of thing. You're going to have to spread it and risk it. All right? So here's the thing, though.
Here's what we have to understand. So Rafi brought up obliquely. The Cultural Revolution. So in my data sets, and I never went into this because I didn't want to explore it back in the time of 2012 and on, I only obliquely mentioned it in there, a Cultural Revolution comes to the United States. I was afraid that the Cultural Revolution would end up being like Mao's Cultural Revolution.
And indeed it was. It is now we're living through Mao's Cultural Revolution, pushed onto the United States in the form of Wokonianism, the trans stuff and climate change, okay? Because Mao's revolution was based on making China ill, young versus old intergenerational separation. And he wanted to do away with the old, and he weaponized it through Munchausen's by proxy, just as we're going through. This is pertinent because in the data sets, it showed, just as Raffi had used by illustration, professors, that no longer had any occupation, that they were just cast out.
Now, I thought at the time, 2012, not seeing the infiltration and all of that, at that time, I thought that those data sets were referring to something like Mao's Revolution, when professor friends of mine, after they survived the coal mines and this kind of thing in Mao's Revolution told me about what it was like. And they were just a professor one day, and then the students came in, and then the next day they were working at a coal mine. Right? And so I thought we were going to get into that. But I think now that it's the other way, that it'll be the gender studies and Rafi is coming to the point of practicality.
All of the impractical nonsensical crap is going to be thrown out in our cultural revolution now in order that we may survive and as he said, grow food and stuff. And within the data sets, you'll notice a lot of data about how the United States cleans up its act. All of North America cleans up its act as far as pollution and stuff. And over these next 30 or 40 years becomes the center of high quality organic farming and food and stuff such that we used to see, like in Holland. And so this is in our future now.
Rothy is quite correct, and it's very gratifying for me that it's going to be all the gender studies people that are going to go have to work in a coal mine because they can't do anything else. Right. Anyway, though. But also I want to point out something else. We use the word hyperinflation, okay?
We have not seen hyperinflation. Hyperinflation has a very specific definition that involves human activity. So we have very nasty inflation. There's no question anything over 2%, even annually is very nasty. And I would argue that 2% is terrible.
But we're in the eight, nine and 10% kind of stuff now. This is very nasty inflation that's destroying us, destroying the social order, destroying our cohesiveness and stuff. But it is not hyperinflation. Hyperinflation occurs when the dynamic of people's emotions become involved in the moment. So in Germany in 1923, in Armenia, in any of these hyperinflationary episodes, you get hyperinflation when the people lose the trust 100% of the currency and spend it as fast as they can and in fact are planning on spending the next bit they get long before they get it.
And so all of a sudden and it is all of a sudden just like that, and all of a sudden the printing presses cannot keep up with the emotionality that's being expressed through the activity of moving the currency through the system. That is hyperinflation. That is scary stuff, okay? My relatives that lived through it in the 1920s in Germany wrote diaries that I read, and they were just shocked about how terrible it was, right. I won't go into any of the details there, but I want to tell you that hyperinflation is not yet here, but it may be very close, okay?
In Germany, hyperinflation was triggered by a number of moves, political moves by the then limping government over the course of just nine days, okay? So just a little over a week, they did these three little items in the German law structure and everything, and it freaked everybody out, and they started a hyperinflationary run. So now today I am feeling that hyperinflationary pressure start to build in myself against the currency, as I know that everybody else is also reacting to the bank problems. But today we got our first political kick towards hyperinflation where Trump announced that they're going to arrest him on the 21st. Okay?
So this is going to cause a whole lot of things to occur. I believe it'll cause a national strike to occur in the United States. I believe we'll have a trucker strike the way that they had in Canada and not deliver goods. So that will cause this anxiety that will transfer the emotion into this. And in fact, I believe it's already happened because I've talked to some people that said this morning when they woke up and they saw that, they decided to drain their bank account.
Okay, so just a regular guy, and this was a guy I know that's got a business here, and he's got payroll, he's got people he's got to, and it's a local bank. He knows about yelling. And he said that was it. This is the last straw. He says if they arrest Trump, that's it.
And he said that today he's going to go and today is Saturday, but he's going to go talk to his buddy who happens to work at the bank and make arrangements to drain his bank account over this weekend and get ready for Monday, such as he can take all of his money out. Right. I don't know how much he's got, but it's going to be a big hit on that bank because he's got maybe 25 people that work for him, and he's really worried about being able to provide for them and his family and so on. And it was not until he saw the political move that he reacted emotionally. He was sort of content, grumble and bitch and moan about the dollar not going anywhere and so on, but he was content up until today to leave his money in that bank.
So at this point, he said it's cash and medals only for him. Wow. Fascinating. And folks, yes, go check out the Twitter for Cliff and myself here. We did post quite a few of these articles here talking about this imminent, perhaps indictment.
And also go check out Jason Forrest video on his prophetic dream of the Trump arrest. Rafi, as we're looking at this, Cliff is adding the component here of the social order breaking down here from a reality of not just the imminent Trump arrest, but all of the big ugly that has been coming out. So we just saw last week the January 6 footage, and that also shocked a big portion of the normies into realizing maybe once for the first time that, hey, somebody's lying to us here and they're lying to us big. This was the last thing we were holding on to here. Orange man, bad.
And here we're being shown that perhaps it didn't play out exactly as we thought. How do you tie that into what we're about to see? And what would you recommend your viewers there at Seeking Alpha, at Endgame's Investor? How do we navigate all of this, the political front and the crumbling of the banking system? Rafi, how do you navigate the political front?
I forget about any faith in the political system. Voting is a sham. It's been for a very long time. It used to mean something, but doesn't mean anything anymore. So instead of relying on politics for saving anything, make local connections with your community.
Find who's going to grow your food. Find who's going to machine your tools or whatever you need. Find who can work with wood, who can help provide your basic needs. And start finding the people close to you and build a local network community economy, so that when the currency does fall, you can start trading amongst yourselves. It just means making friends and staying in contact and knowing where each other, where everyone is.
So in terms of the political order, it's breaking down in the US. If they indict Trump, wow, that's straight up third world country, banana public, South American, scary stuff. And share also with the audience what's happening in your home world. Yeah, well, a similar thing is happening in Israel, and it's more of a local concern here that there's there's a fight going on now between the Supreme Court and the the Knesset, which is the Parliament, and there's no constitution in Israel, so there's no real codification, even if that would even matter. Codifying things in a constitution doesn't seem to have much relevance these days anyway.
But there is no constitution. So the Parliament is trying to kick down the powers of the Supreme Court, and then the Supreme Court is going to say, if you pass that law, we're going to cancel that law. And then the Knesset has to decide whether it's going to order tanks around the Supreme Court or the Court's going to order tanks around the Knesset. I have no dog in this fight. I don't care who wins.
Because from what's been happening in the past two years, here how. Israel forced its disgusting injections, mangala style, on everyone, just pressuring everyone and experimenting on its own people. Disgusting government, both sides of it, are bad. The Knesset for passing the laws and the mask laws and the Mandate laws and everything, and the Supreme Court for allowing it to go happen. So I hope these people fight each other and we can restart something, have our own reset here.
We can be a little bit more free. So I think this is all connected to what's happening in Israel, is what is connected to what's happening in America and the government fighting itself and political war. Everything is happening together at the same time, and everything is a reflection of everything else. So how we purge this disease and having a violent fever to get rid of a disease, it's painful, but it's necessary. And we're about to go through a pretty rough part of it.
And I hope we come out calm and sane. I hope the same. Rafi, originally, before the interview, you mentioned maybe you had 45 minutes. We're at the 45 minutes now. I have two more segments.
Can you stay a little bit longer or do you need to? Okay, very good. Thank you so much, Rafi. I appreciate your extra time for the audience members here. We were just talking about some of the old Webbas data reports.
Cliff was nice enough to give us the underbridge original versions. There are a lot of them on the web that have been modified, so be careful what you're reading. But if you're looking for them now, again, beyond Mystic Net, cliffhigh is where you can download these original reports. Now, Cliff, you just mentioned, I want to bring this back up for the audience members here. This is a little bit more complicated.
I know you're trailblazing ahead here with these words and constructing this narrative so that we get used to this language, understand it, being able to digest it, and then to convey it to the rest of the population here. Let's spend a little bit of time here on the Manchester by proxy here, what you're talking about, what those actual codes mean, the fact that you're actually putting out real data here and why perhaps some of the trans communities are hitting up your Twitter. You lost your Twitter last week. Explain to them why this is so crucial here and how that ties into the breaking of the social order and how, as both of you are mentioning here, we're going to go back to the basics here and not really care so much about all of this. Wokism.
Cliff? Okay, so it's fairly complex. You have to ask yourself, why do all of these things occur? Right? Why does trans occur?
Why does a politician support trans, et cetera, et cetera? Well, obviously in a politician's interest to do so, gain power and so on. But at a human level, why would such a thing occur? Why would a mother support a child trying to regender themselves, resex themselves? Because it has nothing to do with gender.
When you're starting to cut off body parts, then you're dealing with sex, right? And so it is Munchausen's by proxy, which is one of the most complex codified diseases that we have that involves both physical and psychiatric components, right? And so if you go look up Munchausen's by proxy and get into it, you'll find volumes written on this thing. And it's basically, in its simplest form, it's a sick caregiver that needs attention from an external. So frequently you'll see this dynamic of a mother, an absentee father and a child, and the father is not quite 100% gone.
The mother makes the child ill, such as to draw back that male into her life. And she does this frequently in an unconscious fashion, not even really aware of her own motivation. Also, she communicates to the child the illness by way of unconscious signaling. And there's been vast quantities of psychiatric books written on this. It is one of the hardest diseases to ever diagnose in a caregiver and an ill person.
But it will become so effective that the ill person can actually do things like manifest blisters, manifest physical symptoms in their body from a psychological condition that goes away once this dynamic is broken. So frequently, a trans kid becomes instantly non trans when taken to an absentee parent and is no longer under the influence of that parent. That's sending out these unconscious and conscious signals to behave this way such that I may benefit. So it's a very complex disease. Mao Seng and a bunch of people that worked with him analyzed Munchausen's by proxy in the 30s in a very extensive test, very extensive analysis.
I don't think it had ever been done that way before. And in the Chinese started using Munchausen's by proxy to shape their own society. And then Mao took it over in 1966, and he used it to foment the Cultural Revolution and seize power back, because they had almost gotten him out of the way in 65, and they were trying to get normalized relations with the US. And the Western world, et cetera. And he used it to take China back.
It has been weaponized and used against us. The key component of this is an object, whether it's a person or a planet or an identity, that needs to be protected by the caregiver. And so my thing is to bring up this language, especially relative to people in power. This is a very dangerous situation, and even the AI recognizes that. The most dangerous situation you can run into is a person that's a politician that's actually exhibiting Munchausen's by proxy, attempting to put it out on the population in the form of anything.
But nowadays we have it focused on a sick planet. And these mythical trans kids. Trans kids is not a thing. They don't exist. Blah, blah, blah.
There's no climate crisis. We're not going to die from any human activity. Humans, they say that we're going to push it over the certain sun agreed temperature because of our activity. But the fact of the matter is, humans never add any energy whatsoever to this planet. The only thing we do is convert it from one form to another, but that energy is still here.
Okay, as Ricardo Bosi was saying in our last war Correspondent show, guys, if you haven't seen that, go check it out. He's talking about, of course, like euclid, this fifth generational warfare. This warfare for our minds to have us to think a certain way in order to have us act a certain way here in this controlled chapter. Bring that in here and also talk about the fact that people can go research this for themselves. We have an actual ICD code here, as you have on the screen.
Explain how this ties into the 5G warfare and how knowing that this is being perpetuated on us, having the tools to recognize it and point to it can actually start flipping the tables here and freaking out a lot of the power structures once they've been discovered here by this particular tactic in this warfare. Go ahead, Cliff. Okay, so you just mentioned the phrase flipping the tables. That arises from three card monte. When people discover how they're being cheated in three card monte, what do they always do?
They flip over the scammer's table, right? Scattering the cards and all of that. So that's exactly what's going on here. The discovery that you're being deceived in real time brings out an instant reaction that shatters the mind programming that goes on. It's an emotionality that comes on up.
I won't go into any of the details, but it actually hardens you against mostly that specific con being used on you again. But it also degrades your ability to be gullible to other cons as you go forward. The more you've been scammed, the less you can be scammed because you've seen it, right? And so that's where we're at now that we're going to have this flipping of the tables. As everybody understands all of these different scams that are going on, and as part of the unrestricted fifth generation warfare, those people that can observe the scams happening, identify the language and show you that it's going on, can, especially in my case, provide you with language that can assist you going forward.
So if you know that your politician is using language that is focusing on causing harm to children, which is the supporting of them, transing, then you could stand up and say, I have a public health notice here. These proceedings have to stop until this person, the politician, has been investigated by a panel, not an individual, a panel of psychiatrists to confirm that they are not exhibiting Munchausens by proxy. You won't believe how rapidly that changes the dynamic of any meeting with a public official in there. Even if you don't get traction, it's going to freak everybody out. It's going to collapse the meeting itself.
And if you can hand out the printouts of the Munchausen's by proxy language and the AI saying, here are the steps, then everybody will start getting the clue and they'll say, hey, wait a second. What's going on here? Right? This is a weapon of war. We are probably about seven or nine months away from the normies, grasping that this war tactic has been put on us for these last 40 plus years.
And then we'll have all kinds of people write books about how they snuck in and the colleges were converted and all the language and all of that. But as I say, they won't even start grasping that for seven to nine months somewhere out in the future. But the emotional shock of what's going to hit us this coming week and then the weeks afterwards leading up to May. So now bear in mind a potentiality that we do have a national strike, that we do have trucker strikes, and that we have some form of reaction to the arrest of Trump. Okay.
That they actually go through it and do it. It's a misdemeanor that they've got a unique novel theory to escalate into a felony. So it isn't going anywhere. Right. Okay, so let's say that they do that.
What are going to be the consequences? I can draw out a timeline now that takes us from Tuesday of this week up to May 1 that would support the idea that in May 1, the government will collapse because there will be the Dick Algeier moment in the halls of Congress when no one will pass an extension of any monetary funding for any aspect of the federal government. Wow.
As soon as May 1. May they okay. Rafi, let me bring you on here also because we have a lot of silver bugs in the audience members and we have a lot of people trying to understand why silver is important, but why there at the silver level also, we're being conned. There's this big con game happening. I've had many interviews with Andy Shekman over the last year or two explaining that, of course, we're seeing the big drawdowns of the comics and the Lbma.
Apparently, somebody is front running what is about to occur here and getting into the physical, even though in the mainstream news they're telling us that gold, of course, is a pet rock and inconsequential. I have another video here somewhere from Bernacki saying it's just tradition. But let's talk about the scam here at the silver level and what you see happening here. What's the set up right now in the technicals in terms of the silver market? Rafi well set up in technicals, not much of a technical analyst, but I do look at open interest, the amount of contracts that are open in silver futures.
But what's the scam? The way I put it, there are a lot of different ways to put this. I don't capture in terms of fraud as much as just the nature of the system. You could call that fraud, too. I have no problem with calling it fraud.
I don't use that word. I try to help people understand what is going on here. And essentially what's going on is that for other commodities, there's one price right there's, the consuming price of that commodity. Like, how much would you pay to consume a barrel of oil for your energy needs?
So it's the same with all with all consumable commodities, with wheat, with oil, with energy, et cetera, with the gold. And silver is different because there's a consumer price. Like if you're a jeweler, how much would you pay for 10oz of gold? So you can make your jewelry to stock your shelves or whatever it is that you use gold for, if you need it for your electronics or you use it in whatever it is that you manufacture. So then you need some gold physically to consume in some kind of thing, that's a price.
But there is another price of gold and that is the price that people are the monetary price. Whereas there are only a certain select amount of people that actually use gold as a consumer good. Everybody in the world needs gold because everybody in the world needs money to trade it with for something else. So the monetary price of gold is much, much higher than the commodity price of gold. And are you suggesting that these are going to meet here very soon with all of this?
Yes, they're going to meet. At what number exactly? I don't know, but it should meet at the end game to a 100% value of 100%, balance out the amount of liabilities in the Federal Reserve balance sheet. Assuming there is gold in Fort Knox, and I do not know that for sure. I'm sure Cliff would probably say no.
But let's assume there is what is 8132 tons or something like that. So the Fed has that on its balance sheet supposedly, and then a whole bunch of paper. So when the paper falls to zero, the only thing left on the balance sheet is gold. So it has to balance out the rest of the liabilities, which are the amount of dollars in circulation. 100% backing would be something around $40 to $50,000 an ounce.
Now if there is no gold there, then there will be no exchange rate and the dollar will be completely worthless. And then you'll need physical coins. So at the end of the day, gold and silver futures, they're not going to be redeemable. So most of the people with a futures position, whether it be gold or even an ETF position, they're not going to get anything out of that because really it's only an exchange ticket for a bunch of dollars. And if the dollar doesn't work, then what are you going to do with the share of Slv or Gld or whatever we could do with it?
We could do nothing. It could be a nice wallpaper. Yeah. If it could even be that you'd have to request like physical copies of your holdings of your ETFs. Right, okay, thank you.
I appreciate that. Cliff before we get to the next segment here, and I want you to follow through on some of this pricing mechanism for gold and silver. I'll get into why perhaps Jim Sinclair was saying earlier this year, based on the calculations that Rafi is trying to explain to the audience members, gold should already be at $80,000 or ounce. And that was with the liabilities that were admitted six months ago, not what we're seeing now, and perhaps all the over the counter derivatives that have not been accounted for yet. So I'll get to that segment in a moment.
But Cliff, a big issue right now for a lot of people. All the stress, all the turmoil. As Recorder Boasty said to you're supposed to be confused right now. The white hats, the black hats, everybody's trying to fuck with you, everybody's lying with you. A big problem for a lot of our viewers is trying to sleep.
Cliff, why is sleep so important and what do you have for them here at Pure Sleep? Okay, so Pure Sleep is a cool product. We've got a sugarless version. So if you're one of the people that is going through cancer, sadly, from all of the shots and so on, it'll aid you that way. And by the way, if you've taken any of the mRNA products, natokinase has been shown to get rid of the spike protein and also degrade the lipid nanoparticles and bind them to excrete them.
So that does offer some help there. Okay, so we need to sleep here because during the sleep, okay, so your body can't repair itself during the day. Anything it does to any kind of injury that you get during the day is simply triage. It's just trying to keep you from getting worse. And so it's only during at night that you can actually repair that damage.
And because I was trying to recover from being down to ÂŁ128, I needed to recover. So I've got GABA in there. GABA is such a powerful substance that the Japanese government considers it to be illegal in products. It has to be administered by a medical prescription because it's a precursor to a human growth hormone. So it will allow your body to maximize the creation of human growth hormone before you go to sleep because of the nature of the mix we've got.
And then so you'll have the human growth hormone and it provides some level of support in using it, but it's not any of the peptides that actually direct how it should be used. So if for instance, you had arthritis, then a good use for this would be to take a peptide during the day that would direct growth towards your joints and so on, but have the Pure Sleep at night so that you would have the human growth hormone there available for you. Okay, very good. And folks, I just put the link here to Pure Sleep in the live chat. Go check it out.
I absolutely love mine and I love the new flavor also that was just put out here in the last couple of months. I really like it, Cliff, and I love the plastic reusable containers. I know a lot of our viewers also like that. So Cliff, let's go back to this idea of this original webbot data suggesting that we would see at some point here when we entered this new phase of the world, this $600 per ounce silver. Let's go back to the conversation here of what Jim Sinclair was suggesting there, the $80,000 per ounce gold, how that ties into today and also tie that into now the warfare we find ourselves in, we're seeing different levels of attacks now into the open.
We've moved away. From the overt part of the war into the sorry, of the COVID And now we're into the overt part of the war, as you're describing here in this last video. But explain how that war is also going to be affecting us here at the gold and silver price level. Also the fact that we are going to finally be what was the term you used? Harvesting the corn.
Tie that in to the worst scenario we're in. Now. Suddenly that makes a whole lot of sense. Okay, so here's the thing. This is essentially a deep spiritual war involving those and the two sides are easily categorized.
And then there's this middle lump that doesn't know anything's going on really. And those are the normies. The two sides can be categorized as those people that create fiat money and use that to do evil deeds because they have no emotional, physical or cost investment in the creation of fiat currency. They make as much as they want and then everybody else takes it and will give them food and other stuff for it. And so they think that the people that will give them real goods for the fiat are pretty stupid and they want to take over the whole planet.
Now on the other side are those individuals that think we should be on a spiritually sound money system that has no debt attached to it, that no one gets rich off of my labor in this hidden fashion. And so this is truly, in my opinion, a war, good versus evil. And everybody's confused and all of the normies are confused because it is in that state of confusion and anxiety, angst, anger and so on, that minds can be made to change. And the normies have been cultivated like a crop for so long, it takes a lot for their minds to change. Therefore, the upcoming level of emotion is going to be huge, indeed, shockingly huge.
Thus we must face the nuclear war. We've got to have that in there. We've got to go right up to it and face it. We must face all of these things because in facing them, we show who are the adults and everybody else will fall away and then they'll start following the real adults. And that's how this is going to play out.
So what's necessary now is for, in my opinion, is for people of solidity to stand and be solid in that solidity that others may gather around them as we come into this very terrible time with all of these emotions being brought up with the death of the fiat currency and so on. And so this is why I'm starting to get really, I get very peculiar about language, but I like to insist that there's the US dollar and then there's the Federal Reserve notes. Also, the gold in Fort Knox is not owned by the Federal Reserve. It doesn't matter what claims they may have on it. In 1964, there were some moves made that eliminated the ability of the Federal Reserve to make a claim on the gold.
This was done by the Sock. It was one of the very first documents that I can find that allows for the Sock's existence to be supposed was that there were certain things that were done and so there may be gold there for all I know, but the Federal Reserve won't be able to get their hands on it. We're going to see the in my opinion, we'll see the derivatives go first and that will be a giant kick in the balls to a lot of people, okay? These people will be city councils, these will be pension funds, these will be all different kinds of water projects globally, all kinds of weird projects globally that are being used to funnel bribery money to support illegal activities and all of that kind of stuff. They exist in vast quantities in the level of the derivatives.
They live on this hazy kind of secret bond world financing everything that's going to go away at the very first part of our hard stop here heading towards May. And so a lot will be revealed and then that's going to be this giant peak of the big ugly as a lot of this stuff comes out and that's when a lot of people are going to get very angry, very upset. We may indeed see riots, but it won't be mega people running around pulling down statues, right? They may have a few of the antifa dressed up as mega, but that isn't going to go over very well. I remember a web auditor report where you said that not just politicians but perhaps also media newscasters would be flayed in the streets.
Those were the words that were coming up in your old web auditor reports. Now as it pertains to the corn being harvested, we know what you meant by that and of course they're afraid of being harvested. So this is why they're putting out all these arrest warrants now for Trump and even the ICC here issuing the arrest for Putin earlier this week. I want to get into the war in Ukraine. How that is a fallback position for perhaps the fall of Kazakhstan here in the last segment.
Before I do that, I wanted to bring up the link here for the discounts available for you guys, the Beyond Mystic audience here today offered to you by Miles Franklin. You can find that at Beyond Mystic net silver. We have the 1oz Kangaroos on sale at 379 over Spot, as well as the ten ounce silver Italian maple bars if you guys are looking to bulk up there at 259 over Spot. And if you move over to the Mfbullion. CA, if you're on the Canadian side of the viewership, you can also get the Maple Leafs who are on sale also there.
So that's mfbullion CA and of course Beyondmistic Net Silver and for those asking in the chat, yes, the silver bars are still available. And on top of that page there, there's the special order form there for those three, as well as the new Sending Ravens silver bar available now for pre order. So check that out, Cliff. And maybe we could do this as an open table for the last segment here. Going back to this idea that Ukraine is the fallback position we saw last year.
We reported on this, and I believe you and I did a video on this last year when Kazakhstan fell, a lot of things happened there. We saw what your web data suggests might be happening here in North America, the politicians being hanged on the streets. We saw the taking over of the banks. We saw people going through all of the material, following the money, so to speak, and basically creating this funnel effect where the last of these Caesarian mafias, as you call them, the cabal, fell back into Ukraine. Now, what was funny here, just as a side note to be funny with our audience members just again, Biden was out this morning saying that the deposits were safe, your deposits were safe in Ukraine.
Let's get into and Rafi, let's get into how all of this is going to shape up. I had Jim Willie on the show the other day, and he's suggesting that perhaps this whole thing in Ukraine will be over within a month or two here. We're almost at that point. And I listened to Dr. Paul Kerg Roberts the other day on the Greg Hunter Show, and he's like, I don't understand what's happening.
Russia could have finished this months ago, but they're not finishing the war. Explain what the real strategy is in Ukraine right now, as best we can glean from it. I'll start with you, Cliff. And where does it go from here in this end stage, the end game, the final round here or the last round we find ourselves in? Okay, so it's legit to say that the Russians could have ended it sometime back.
They deliberately have delayed, they've deliberately altered tactics, and lots of people don't understand why, but it's all about timing. They can't end until there are certain conditions, until the normal population of the planet has faced the nuclear war aspect. Okay? All right, so this is a psychological war at its core. All physical aspects of it derive from the psychological plan that is powering everything else.
So certain things will happen in the physical world and bring points of tension, and they are there to create the tension and the illusion that things would proceed from that point forward. So we have this being used on both sides. So in Germany now and throughout Europe, you will find many people that are saying, as soon as he's done with the Ukraine, putin's coming for you, okay? And it's not going to happen. But if he had finished with Ukraine now, they wouldn't be able to do that.
They wouldn't be able to use these kind of psychological tools on their own population. And those must be in place for the counter that will come later when he doesn't attack. Okay, so you've got to set everything up. This is fighting. And in fighting, you will find it in the very best.
Guys that are good at fighting, mohammed, Ali, all these kind of people, they use faints, they use timing, they use pulled punches in order that you will react a certain way. They'll throw a punch this way such that you'll shift your head right into the one that they're driving into you. Right? And so that's where we're at now, is in all of this psychological stuff back and forth on that, it's going to get ever so much more complex, more complicated and more scary as we go forward in dealing with the scariness. You can always center yourself, right?
And so if everything gets too weird and there's all this talk of nuclear war and everything, bring it back to yourself, your house, do, sweep the floors, wash the dishes, whatever. Clean your local environment in order to clean your emotions of what's going on, because it will be polluted as we go forward with all of the necessary drama that has to be created in order that these minds might change the way they need to. Wow. Thank you so much. I appreciate that.
I'll get back to you for final words of wisdom here. You kind of alluded to that there Cliff Rafi sent to you here going back to perhaps this fallback position from the Kazakhstan capital of the Illuminati, falling, so to speak, here last year into this now final battle, at least kinetic battle, against perhaps the bioweapons labs, the child trafficking, the money laundering that is happening in Ukraine now. How far are we to understanding perhaps for the normal population, maybe not the people watching the show here, but for the normal population to understand the nature of this war? And perhaps when that comes to a conclusion, how do you see that playing out here in your mind and in your analysis? Rafi I guess I have to plead ignorance here.
I have no idea what you're talking about. Okay.
It is very much complicated. And again, guys, if you want a little bit more information on that and the background, please do go watch my War Correspondent show with Ricardo Bossy. Two of the first episodes there did set the stage for this particular war. How we, on one hand, have the 5g war for your mind, but on the other hand, also have the open aspects of this war, including the tactical attacks on the United States in the last couple of weeks. Now, the banking warfare attacks and of course all of the devulgation that is happening now with January 6 and the COVID narrative all coming out at the same time.
We are into this culminoric effect here in this war. And of course, there also we talked about the component, boots on the ground in Ukraine. So if you want to go check out that episode, that is the place to be, guys, before I go. Also, if you want to stay connected here on the Insider Access Pass, where I produce all of this Insider access content here on Censored Unfeathered on Beyond Mystic Net. Because of the bank runs here too, people are having issues with their credit cards or payment processing and they're not having the ability to connect with us.
And to watch the episodes on a timely basis, please do consider the yearly pass here. We've put it at 50% off for you guys. The coupon code is bank run 50. That expires March 20. My birthday, of course, the Equinox man, a lot of things happening for my birthday.
Cliff, hopefully we're going to have a good birthday here in the next couple of weeks and that we're going to see some light at the end of the tunnel. Cliff, let's end on that. Actually, I'll end with you, Cliff. Rafi, while you're on the screen, what is your best advice here? Cliff just mentioned clean yourself here so that you can be strong and be nimble enough to weather the storm here and to be flexible enough to adapt yourself to the situations that are coming up now in the next couple of weeks and months.
What do you say to your subscribers here on Your Patreon? Talk about that hair too. Also how we can support you there and what can they expect here if they follow you at the End Game Investor on your Patreon? Well, my Patreon is not my main thing. My main service is The End Game Investor, where I talk basically three or four times a week with a weekend report about what's going on in gold and silver in the monetary system from an Austrian school economics analysis perspective.
So you get a two week free trial on that at this site over here that's on the screen. Let me break the link down for you guys here and the chat. There's a lot of amazing content there. So you guys please do go and support Rafi there and all of his amazing work. Here's the link in the live chat.
Keep going, Rafi. So My Patreon is where I take a more biblical angle on economics and monetary policy. I'm a religious Jew and I have a pretty extensive knowledge of Bible and Torah and from Jewish perspective. So what the Torah believes about monetary policy and gold and silver, whenever I come across a comment, I share it and analyze from the same perspective that I have now. So for people who value this sort of stuff, it can be calming and that this is not old.
We've been through this before, way, many thousands of years ago, and it's good to see from that perspective what people were going through back then with the same issues that we're having now, just from a modern standpoint. And, yeah, YouTube channel, you can check it out. I make my videos as funny as I can because the only way I can stay sane is laugh. And that's the most important advice. I can have everybody stay sane, stay connected to as much nature as you can, get off your phones when you can stop looking down and look up and have your local community support you and support them, and you should get through this on the other side.
Thank you, Rafi, I appreciate that. And yes, I do find your videos very funny. I just can't possibly understand how you have time to put out all these edits in your movies, your videos, to become so funny, but I do very much appreciate that. Let me bring the link down so you guys can go and subscribe there to YouTube too. Rafi's YouTube channel there.
Cliff, back to you here as we round up the show. You mentioned earlier to me in the email. Today, Tuesday, is the pop off. Okay, so it's a big pop off. What do you mean by that?
And where do we go from here? How do we navigate all of this? It's going to depend on how it manifests as to whether it is super active. So there's a couple of days, they may decide through fear, through wisdom, whatever, to not arrest Trump. Right?
If they do that, then it's one of those Rubicon has been crossed over, the die is cast and there is no going back and there is no longer a certain level of civility. Okay, so it then comes out in the open, the dictators have taken the velvet glove off, basically. And at that point, I'm expecting the populace to react and I'm expecting the populace to react with a lot of energy from a certain level of the populace, but I expect them to drag a lot of the normies along as well, and that this will be shocking to a lot of people and that things will degrade fairly rapidly. So there's going to be some level of unknowns relative to how it plays out tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. So if Trump is fingerprinted, if he's arrested, if he's fingerprinted, if he's processed, and if he's released, that's one scenario, right?
What if there's incidents, what if there's delay in the release? What if there's anxiety on the part of the people? And what if the powers that be delay causing their own kind of anxiety for their own purposes? Well, we may see street actions, but it wouldn't be antifa like street actions. It would be perhaps a large truck convoy totally surrounding every police facility that could be found in New York State and all the government building.
That would be awesome. Wow. Right? So it will be that form of activity, of standing, in my opinion, standing and saying, we're here bring it. Bring it.
They won't. They won't bring it even if they brought antifa. Antifa cannot stand up to a bunch of pissed off truckers, right? And so we're going to get to the point where we're now coming up to the stand, okay? And so people will just stand up and say, I'm here, I'm not taking it.
Bring it this far, no further. Wow. Thank you so much, Cliff. Thank you so much, Rafi. Guys, if you want more of this amazing reporting this week, we've had to change the schedule here to adapt to this perhaps a Trump indictment news cycle.
So we're going to do the war reporting show on the Wednesday at 08:00 Eastern as opposed to the typical pay per view we do. So we'll bring that live to you guys here, free and uncensored on Rumble and on the Thursday night also, we have this special Pluto the Destroyer, the decode here of the three, two, three. So you don't want to miss that. How all of the astrological bodies are also pointing to perhaps the same alignments we had during the French Revolutions and the Guillotine. So that's going to be a fabulous show to perhaps set up some of the things that are coming up in the web bot data reports right now.
So you don't want to miss that. That's going to be a Thursday at 08:00 p.m.. Eastern, of course, on March 23, the day itself where Pluto enters this very powerful alignment on YouTube. Go ahead. One last thing.
You brought it up. We all know that the French Revolution started because of Bastille. What was bastille of prism? Exactly. Thank you so much, Cliff, for that added note.
I'll remember to bring that up in the research and the slide deck that Julie is already preparing here this weekend for this live show. It's going to be absolutely amazing, guys, if you want to follow me also here on YouTube for amazing new content there, including the Divine Feminine Oracles and the Manifest Destiny shows. And also Penny Taylor. She's back. A big thank you to all of you who supported her during the live meditation while she was undergoing surgery a couple of weeks ago.
She's going to be back on the show for our next break in the clouds. You can find that here at Beyond Mystic on the YouTube channel. So, again, guys, please do go and support our friend Rafi here at Sea Alpha on the End game investor. And you can find, of course, Cliff on his substac here. You can take a screenshot of that as well as on his bitchute.
I'm Jean Claudette on mystic. This was the end game last round with Cliffy and Rafi Farber. Thank you so much, everyone, for joining. Have a great day and we'll see you soon. Otoa thanks.
The number-one best-selling pioneer of "fratire" and a leading evolutionary psychologist team up to create the dating book for guys. Whether they conducted their research in life or in the lab, experts Tucker Max and Dr. Geoffrey Miller have spent the last 20-plus years learning what women really want from their men, why they want it, and how men can deliver those qualities.

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.
Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook: How to Tell Your Story in a Noisy Social World
By Gary Vaynerchuk (Author)
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.
In this pathbreaking work, Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky show that, contrary to the usual image of the news media as cantankerous, obstinate, and ubiquitous in their search for truth and defense of justice, in their actual practice they defend the economic, social, and political agendas of the privileged groups that dominate domestic society, the state, and the global order.
Based on a series of case studies—including the media’s dichotomous treatment of “worthy” versus “unworthy” victims, “legitimizing” and “meaningless” Third World elections, and devastating critiques of media coverage of the U.S. wars against Indochina—Herman and Chomsky draw on decades of criticism and research to propose a Propaganda Model to explain the media’s behavior and performance.

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 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.
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.
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 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.
