our 18 00:00:56,549 --> 00:00:52,800 culture but 19 00:01:00,310 --> 00:00:58,150 people have seen the same sort of things 20 00:01:00,950 --> 00:01:00,320 you have which group of aliens abducted 21

dreamland so you know 53 00:02:31,910 --> 00:02:29,599 before we jumped into all that i wanted 54 00:02:35,270 --> 00:02:31,920 to pause for a minute 55 00:02:38,869 --> 00:02:35,280 and bring a little bit of perspective to 56 00:02:40,710 --> 00:02:38,879 today's talk because you know as i've 57 00:02:41,990 --> 00:02:40,720 kind of said on this show there really 58 00:02:45,910 --> 00:02:42,000 are only two 59 00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:45,920 questions who are we and why are we here 60 00:02:50,790 --> 00:02:48,800 so if you go look at science that's all 61 00:02:52,630 --> 00:02:50,800 science really fundamentally is ever 62 00:02:53,270 --> 00:02:52,640 asking that's all philosophy is ever 63 00:02:55,110 --> 00:02:53,280 asking 64 00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:55,120 you might even say that's all religion 65 00:02:59,750 --> 00:02:57,040 is ever asking 66 00:03:00,949 --> 00:02:59,760 and if you look at those two questions 67 00:03:04,869 --> 00:03:00,959 and you look at this 68 00:03:07,990 --> 00:03:04,879 new now to close disclosed reality 69 00:03:10,470 --> 00:03:08,000 about the lights in the sky about the 70 00:03:11,110 --> 00:03:10,480 craft that has been video released on 71 00:03:15,190 --> 00:03:11,120 the 72 00:03:18,309 --> 00:03:15,200 times and 73 00:03:21,030 --> 00:03:18,319 all the the news rep news reporters 74 00:03:21,350 --> 00:03:21,040 it's on mainstream news everybody and if 75 00:03:24,390 --> 00:03:21,360 we 76 00:03:27,430 --> 00:03:24,400 think how fundamentally 77 00:03:29,430 --> 00:03:27,440 that has shifted that has answered 78 00:03:31,750 --> 00:03:29,440 or at least begun to answer those two 79 00:03:34,949 --> 00:03:31,760 questions who are we why are we here 80 00:03:37,270 --> 00:03:34,959 and then you ask yourself name one 81 00:03:41,190 --> 00:03:37,280 person 82 00:03:43,910 --> 00:03:41,200 the center 83 00:03:45,910 --> 00:03:43,920 of that monumental shift in all of 84 00:03:47,430 --> 00:03:45,920 history of answering those two questions 85 00:03:49,430 --> 00:03:47,440 paradigm shift now we have a whole new 86 00:03:51,350 --> 00:03:49,440 way of answering them 87 00:03:53,509 --> 00:03:51,360 whitley strieber has to be in there i 88 00:03:53,910 --> 00:03:53,519 mean he has to be i think he's the one 89 00:03:58,070 --> 00:03:53,920 but 90 00:04:01,429 --> 00:03:58,080 he's certainly one of the very few 91 00:04:02,470 --> 00:04:01,439 so there aren't a lot of uh seminal 92 00:04:05,509 --> 00:04:02,480 events 93 00:04:06,710 --> 00:04:05,519 in this kind of paradigm shift this new 94 00:04:09,990 --> 00:04:06,720 understanding of 95 00:04:11,589 --> 00:04:10,000 who we are and why we're here but maybe 96 00:04:14,309 --> 00:04:11,599 if we were just gonna pick out 97 00:04:15,030 --> 00:04:14,319 three of them randomly we'd say okay 98 00:04:17,430 --> 00:04:15,040 maybe 99 00:04:18,870 --> 00:04:17,440 roswell that certainly kind of was a 100 00:04:20,310 --> 00:04:18,880 paradigm shift no matter what you think 101 00:04:22,069 --> 00:04:20,320 about roswell no matter what your 102 00:04:25,749 --> 00:04:22,079 opinion is 103 00:04:30,310 --> 00:04:25,759 a second one would be the current 104 00:04:33,590 --> 00:04:32,150 disclosure i guess we could call it that 105 00:04:35,510 --> 00:04:33,600 we're going through that some people 106 00:04:36,310 --> 00:04:35,520 call it a psyop but it certainly is an 107 00:04:40,230 --> 00:04:36,320 official 108 00:04:43,030 --> 00:04:40,240 event would have to be 109 00:04:43,990 --> 00:04:43,040 the publication of whitley's book 110 00:04:46,230 --> 00:04:44,000 communion 111 00:04:47,189 --> 00:04:46,240 which if people don't remember because 112 00:04:50,790 --> 00:04:47,199 they're not 113 00:04:52,629 --> 00:04:50,800 older when communion 114 00:04:54,150 --> 00:04:52,639 was in the bookshelves back when they 115 00:04:59,110 --> 00:04:54,160 had bookstores 116 00:05:01,510 --> 00:04:59,120 it stopped people in their tracks 117 00:05:03,350 --> 00:05:01,520 they were not not mesmerized i was going 118 00:05:07,590 --> 00:05:03,360 to say but that isn't the correct word 119 00:05:11,189 --> 00:05:07,600 they were they were transformed 120 00:05:13,270 --> 00:05:11,199 by their real memories of things that 121 00:05:16,550 --> 00:05:13,280 had happened to them 122 00:05:19,990 --> 00:05:16,560 that's how significant that book was 123 00:05:23,749 --> 00:05:20,000 it shifted our whole perception 124 00:05:27,270 --> 00:05:23,759 of this phenomenon from a nuts 125 00:05:30,870 --> 00:05:27,280 and bolts technology phenomenon 126 00:05:34,390 --> 00:05:30,880 to an experiencer phenomenon 127 00:05:34,950 --> 00:05:34,400 whitley did that and then he changed it 128 00:05:39,830 --> 00:05:34,960 again 129 00:05:42,230 --> 00:05:39,840 along the way just by his own raw 130 00:05:42,870 --> 00:05:42,240 discovery and sharing that discovery 131 00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:42,880 with us 132 00:05:51,029 --> 00:05:47,280 he shifted it again to a consciousness 133 00:05:52,310 --> 00:05:51,039 centered experience saying that it's not 134 00:05:54,150 --> 00:05:52,320 just about the experience 135 00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:54,160 it's about what the experience means at 136 00:05:57,430 --> 00:05:55,919 that consciousness level 137 00:05:59,110 --> 00:05:57,440 and then finally if you've followed his 138 00:06:01,430 --> 00:05:59,120 work in the last few years 139 00:06:03,510 --> 00:06:01,440 he shifted it again in the most 140 00:06:06,070 --> 00:06:03,520 significant way from a 141 00:06:08,150 --> 00:06:06,080 consciousness centered which really 142 00:06:11,510 --> 00:06:08,160 means mind for a lot of people 143 00:06:14,629 --> 00:06:11,520 to an extended consciousness perspective 144 00:06:16,950 --> 00:06:14,639 the work with his departed wife anne 145 00:06:19,430 --> 00:06:16,960 and her near-death experience and then 146 00:06:22,469 --> 00:06:19,440 her after death communication 147 00:06:25,590 --> 00:06:22,479 and whitley's ongoing 148 00:06:27,990 --> 00:06:25,600 extended consciousness communication 149 00:06:29,029 --> 00:06:28,000 with these ones that he calls the 150 00:06:32,390 --> 00:06:29,039 visitors 151 00:06:34,469 --> 00:06:32,400 and what that means at a deep dare i say 152 00:06:36,790 --> 00:06:34,479 spiritual level but we have to because 153 00:06:40,309 --> 00:06:36,800 that's what it's at 154 00:06:43,510 --> 00:06:40,319 it's phenomenal phenomenal 155 00:06:46,870 --> 00:06:43,520 person in our in our history 156 00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:46,880 which we just don't we just don't 157 00:06:51,270 --> 00:06:49,440 appreciate it do you have any 158 00:06:53,350 --> 00:06:51,280 any thoughts on your position in all 159 00:06:55,510 --> 00:06:53,360 this your legacy position or anything 160 00:06:58,230 --> 00:06:55,520 like that 161 00:06:59,270 --> 00:06:58,240 yeah i certainly thought about it a lot 162 00:07:01,029 --> 00:06:59,280 uh you know 163 00:07:02,550 --> 00:07:01,039 how did i end up dropped into this 164 00:07:05,749 --> 00:07:02,560 particular 165 00:07:07,909 --> 00:07:05,759 bag i was uh not 166 00:07:09,830 --> 00:07:07,919 living a life that was connected with 167 00:07:13,589 --> 00:07:09,840 this in any way 168 00:07:16,710 --> 00:07:13,599 when i was uh when when it happened 169 00:07:19,990 --> 00:07:16,720 at least that's not i thought i wasn't 170 00:07:23,909 --> 00:07:20,000 but that wasn't the case uh 171 00:07:30,629 --> 00:07:27,110 and my father were involved in the 172 00:07:33,270 --> 00:07:30,639 in the whole secret world in some ways 173 00:07:35,029 --> 00:07:33,280 my uncle pretty much opened up to me and 174 00:07:36,550 --> 00:07:35,039 introduced me to general arthur 175 00:07:39,430 --> 00:07:36,560 excellent who 176 00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:39,440 and i based what they told me i based my 177 00:07:43,350 --> 00:07:40,800 novel majestic 178 00:07:44,070 --> 00:07:43,360 on what they told me about roswell in 179 00:07:47,029 --> 00:07:44,080 the aftermath 180 00:07:47,990 --> 00:07:47,039 of roswell and since then i've pretty 181 00:07:51,350 --> 00:07:48,000 well 182 00:07:52,550 --> 00:07:51,360 gotten the whole story straight so i 183 00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:52,560 have a 184 00:07:59,430 --> 00:07:56,319 a a really quite accurate timeline 185 00:08:02,150 --> 00:07:59,440 from there to here and uh 186 00:08:04,550 --> 00:08:02,160 the difficulty has been that i've been 187 00:08:07,909 --> 00:08:04,560 asked to keep 188 00:08:09,749 --> 00:08:07,919 secrets in in in some cases and 189 00:08:11,029 --> 00:08:09,759 there are therefore holes in the 190 00:08:14,070 --> 00:08:11,039 narrative 191 00:08:17,270 --> 00:08:14,080 and i'm hoping that i will get 192 00:08:20,869 --> 00:08:17,280 some kind of cloture 193 00:08:24,309 --> 00:08:20,879 on this at some point but as far as my 194 00:08:24,710 --> 00:08:24,319 personal life is concerned i wrote a 195 00:08:28,790 --> 00:08:24,720 book 196 00:08:32,230 --> 00:08:28,800 years ago called the secret school 197 00:08:35,029 --> 00:08:32,240 which is a sort of an exploration of 198 00:08:37,589 --> 00:08:35,039 strange childhood memories or are they 199 00:08:40,469 --> 00:08:37,599 memories i've never been sure 200 00:08:41,509 --> 00:08:40,479 some of them i'm pretty sure of 201 00:08:44,630 --> 00:08:41,519 ironically the 202 00:08:46,389 --> 00:08:44,640 one i'm most sure of i did not mention 203 00:08:49,350 --> 00:08:46,399 in the book because i didn't remember it 204 00:08:52,070 --> 00:08:49,360 when i was writing the book only later 205 00:08:52,829 --> 00:08:52,080 and that is that i was in some kind of 206 00:09:00,550 --> 00:08:52,839 very 207 00:09:03,110 --> 00:09:00,560 disturbing educational program 208 00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:03,120 as a little boy i thought at first it 209 00:09:07,269 --> 00:09:03,920 happened 210 00:09:10,949 --> 00:09:07,279 in 1947 when i was uh would have been 211 00:09:15,030 --> 00:09:10,959 three or four would have been four um 212 00:09:18,550 --> 00:09:15,040 but it actually happened in 1952 213 00:09:21,670 --> 00:09:18,560 and it involved yeah it using 214 00:09:26,470 --> 00:09:21,680 something called a skinner box exactly 215 00:09:30,550 --> 00:09:26,480 and uh i was 216 00:09:34,150 --> 00:09:30,560 very unsure about this memory 217 00:09:34,710 --> 00:09:34,160 until i mentioned it to a man who is in 218

seven-year-old and a nine-year-old 243 00:10:36,389 --> 00:10:33,360 he remembers very well being in the room 244 00:10:39,509 --> 00:10:36,399 when the two air force 245 00:10:41,269 --> 00:10:39,519

antonio selected for it 252 00:10:57,670 --> 00:10:55,360 only five or six children 253 00:11:00,630 --> 00:10:57,680 and uh he was one of them because they 254 00:11:01,030 --> 00:11:00,640 had that

00:11:22,800 about struggling to come to grips with 265 00:11:28,150 --> 00:11:25,920 it and how the account of your friend 266 00:11:29,350 --> 00:11:28,160 and his parents who basically said 267

270 00:11:36,150 --> 00:11:35,040 and what you keep adding to the story 271 00:11:38,230 --> 00:11:36,160 which is 272 00:11:39,670 --> 00:11:38,240 is just revealing more and more layers 273 00:11:41,430 --> 00:11:39,680 whitley it's not like you're adding 274 00:11:43,190 --> 00:11:41,440 anything to the story you're revealing 275 00:11:44,630 --> 00:11:43,200 more about the story but the two things 276 00:11:45,110 --> 00:11:44,640 i just want you to touch on about that 277 00:11:49,030 --> 00:11:45,120 story 278 00:11:51,829 --> 00:11:49,040 was uh number one that you're 279

understand until 282 00:11:58,710 --> 00:11:56,720 you were much older 283 00:12:00,230 --> 00:11:58,720 so there was no option on their their 284 00:12:01,590 --> 00:12:00,240 part they had already

other thing i 288 00:12:08,069 --> 00:12:06,959 remember about your story that was 289 00:12:09,750 --> 00:12:08,079 particularly 290 00:12:11,190 --> 00:12:09,760 poignant to me and and i want you to 291 00:12:12,949 --> 00:12:11,200 retell it if it's true but 292 00:12:14,470 --> 00:12:12,959 you dressing up as your in your sunday 293 00:12:17,430 --> 00:12:14,480 best to you know 294

00:13:09,269 --> 00:13:07,680 one thing my father has to have been one 316 00:13:10,870 --> 00:13:09,279 of the most tight-lipped human beings 317 00:13:14,470 --> 00:13:10,880 who ever existed 318 00:13:16,710 --> 00:13:14,480 he was very very 319 00:13:18,829 --> 00:13:16,720 kept everything everything very close to 320 00:13:22,389 --> 00:13:18,839 the chest but 321 00:13:26,310 --> 00:13:22,399 um colonel guy hicks 322 00:13:29,350 --> 00:13:26,320 who was the officer in command 323 00:13:34,310 --> 00:13:29,360 uh when uh captain 324 00:13:37,350 --> 00:13:34,320 mantell back in 19 in the early 50s 325 00:13:40,870 --> 00:13:37,360 uh flew his mustang 326 00:13:42,870 --> 00:13:40,880 toward a ufo and crashed 327 00:13:45,110 --> 00:13:42,880 and it's a famous ufo incident the 328 00:13:48,310 --> 00:13:45,120 mantel incident 329 00:13:48,710 --> 00:13:48,320 his family ended up living just down 330 00:13:51,829 --> 00:13:48,720 this 331 00:13:54,949 --> 00:13:51,839 just just a block away from us and 332 00:13:56,470 --> 00:13:54,959 my father and mother specifically sent 333 00:13:59,750 --> 00:13:56,480 me over there 334 00:14:03,110 --> 00:13:59,760 to play with his children and i 335 00:14:04,310 --> 00:14:03,120 remember perhaps them asking me 336 00:14:07,350 --> 00:14:04,320 questions about it but i 337 00:14:09,750 --> 00:14:07,360 i don't remember in any detail 338 00:14:10,550 --> 00:14:09,760 but what was going on that he was even 339 00:14:14,069 --> 00:14:10,560 there 340 00:14:14,949 --> 00:14:14,079 down the street across the street from 341 00:14:18,069 --> 00:14:14,959 us 342 00:14:19,430 --> 00:14:18,079 so something was up that and you're 343 00:14:21,590 --> 00:14:19,440 right i think when you say there was 344 00:14:23,910 --> 00:14:21,600 some kind of locomotion there 345 00:14:24,949 --> 00:14:23,920 i don't think my parents realized how 346 00:14:27,509 --> 00:14:24,959 traumatic this 347 00:14:29,509 --> 00:14:27,519 was going to be they probably didn't 348 00:14:31,110 --> 00:14:29,519 know what a skinner box was but the 349 00:14:34,230 --> 00:14:31,120 other parents the 350 00:14:37,110 --> 00:14:34,240 the husband was a trial lawyer 351 00:14:39,030 --> 00:14:37,120 and he had been involved in a 352 00:14:41,430 --> 00:14:39,040 brainwashing case and so he knew 353 00:14:43,990 --> 00:14:41,440 everything there was to know about 354 00:14:45,750 --> 00:14:44,000 mind control and mind mind-changing 355 00:14:49,269 --> 00:14:45,760 systems and so forth 356 00:14:52,150 --> 00:14:49,279 so that was why they declined uh 357 00:14:52,710 --> 00:14:52,160 to let their child go into this it was 358 00:14:55,829 --> 00:14:52,720 pitched 359 00:14:57,269 --> 00:14:55,839 to the parents as he tells me i don't 360 00:14:58,389 --> 00:14:57,279 remember my parents never mentioned 361 00:15:02,389 --> 00:14:58,399 anything about 362 00:15:05,430 --> 00:15:02,399 what they had been told uh as a real 363 00:15:08,629 --> 00:15:05,440 honor you know that and 364 00:15:09,910 --> 00:15:08,639 but they took my sister and a boy who 365 00:15:13,430 --> 00:15:09,920 lived across the street 366 00:15:16,470 --> 00:15:13,440 with us with me because 367 00:15:21,110 --> 00:15:16,480 they what they were really going to do 368 00:15:24,310 --> 00:15:21,120 was not pleasant and they they needed 369 00:15:26,310 --> 00:15:24,320 i think they needed the the some 370 00:15:27,269 --> 00:15:26,320 companionship for me because i think i 371 00:15:29,990 --> 00:15:27,279 would have been 372 00:15:30,550 --> 00:15:30,000 too panicked to function had i not had 373 00:15:33,269 --> 00:15:30,560 other 374 00:15:34,629 --> 00:15:33,279 children who were familiar to me with me 375 00:15:36,150 --> 00:15:34,639 as i recall 376 00:15:38,710 --> 00:15:36,160 there may have been other children 377 00:15:42,550 --> 00:15:38,720 involved i have all kinds of weird 378 00:15:46,389 --> 00:15:42,560 half imaginary half maybe real memories 379 00:15:48,310 --> 00:15:46,399 of uh of uh 380 00:15:49,590 --> 00:15:48,320 that i don't discuss because they're too 381 00:15:52,790 --> 00:15:49,600 vague and too 382 00:15:54,470 --> 00:15:52,800 incendiary really but i do remember one 383 00:15:56,870 --> 00:15:54,480 time being uh 384 00:15:58,310 --> 00:15:56,880 so upset that they took me to the flight 385 00:16:02,550 --> 00:15:58,320 line 386 00:16:05,430 --> 00:16:02,560 and uh now this did happen on a weekend 387 00:16:07,189 --> 00:16:05,440 and they they dad took me out to the 388 00:16:10,949 --> 00:16:07,199 base to the air force base 389 00:16:13,670 --> 00:16:10,959 and uh they showed me around 390 00:16:15,189 --> 00:16:13,680 and they were very nice to me and they 391 00:16:18,150 --> 00:16:15,199 took me to the flight line 392 00:16:19,829 --> 00:16:18,160 and let me sit in a saber jet and they 393 00:16:23,590 --> 00:16:19,839 were trying to 394 00:16:27,110 --> 00:16:23,600 make my make me more comfortable there 395 00:16:30,310 --> 00:16:27,120 and but that didn't work and 396 00:16:32,150 --> 00:16:30,320 this the the program started in august 397 00:16:33,590 --> 00:16:32,160 just before school started about two 398 00:16:37,110 --> 00:16:33,600 weeks before school started 399 00:16:38,870 --> 00:16:37,120 i think by october 400 00:16:40,870

00:17:40,240 until uh the until the january of that 426 00:17:43,510 --> 00:17:41,280 year came i was 427 00:17:44,549 --> 00:17:43,520 i was out of school until january that 428 00:17:47,590 --> 00:17:44,559 was in october 429 00:17:51,909 --> 00:17:47,600 and i was no longer in the program 430 00:17:55,750 --> 00:17:51,919 so that's that that's what happened 431 00:17:59,029 --> 00:17:55,760 i i attribute the visitors 432 00:18:00,630 --> 00:17:59,039 coming into my life somehow or another 433 00:18:02,630 --> 00:18:00,640 to that program 434 00:18:04,710 --> 00:18:02,640 tell me to kind of lay out a couple of 435 00:18:06,789 --> 00:18:04,720 connections that i've stumbled upon 436 00:18:09,190 --> 00:18:06,799 and i want you to comment them on 437 00:18:11,669 --> 00:18:09,200 because you have 438 00:18:13,990 --> 00:18:11,679 you've laid out these threads but i 439 00:18:17,590 --> 00:18:14,000 appreciate that you are reluctant 440 00:18:18,870 --> 00:18:17,600 to stitch things together in a neat and 441 00:18:21,270 --> 00:18:18,880 tidy way 442 00:18:23,029 --> 00:18:21,280 when it doesn't belong in a neat and 443 00:18:23,909 --> 00:18:23,039 tidy way and i really respect that you 444 00:18:25,430 --> 00:18:23,919 can't do that 445 00:18:27,350 --> 00:18:25,440 then you're then you're living an 446 00:18:29,510 --> 00:18:27,360 illusion 447 00:18:31,510 --> 00:18:29,520 and and that's why we we trust you and 448 00:18:33,190 --> 00:18:31,520 that's why you know in your book you 449 00:18:34,710 --> 00:18:33,200 you say at the beginning that you're not 450 00:18:37,990 --> 00:18:34,720 a liar and you don't 451 00:18:40,470 --> 00:18:38,000 uh tolerate you don't tolerate liars 452 00:18:41,029 --> 00:18:40,480 and i love that because that's what we 453 00:18:43,510 --> 00:18:41,039 need 454 00:18:45,029 --> 00:18:43,520 so a couple of pieces to string together 455 00:18:47,909 --> 00:18:45,039 here one of course is the 456 00:18:48,310 --> 00:18:47,919 mk ultra program which all indications 457 00:18:50,549 --> 00:18:48,320 would 458 00:18:51,830 --> 00:18:50,559 seem to point to the fact that this was 459 00:18:53,830 --> 00:18:51,840 part of the 460 00:18:55,510 --> 00:18:53,840 mk ultra program people looked into it 461 00:18:56,470 --> 00:18:55,520 know that you know it's not just a 462 00:18:58,630 --> 00:18:56,480 couple of 463 00:19:00,789 --> 00:18:58,640 doctors up there in canada fooling 464 00:19:02,950 --> 00:19:00,799 around there are 150 programs 465 00:19:04,549 --> 00:19:02,960 at least that we've traced before they 466 00:19:07,430 --> 00:19:04,559 shut down all the information 467 00:19:09,270 --> 00:19:07,440 many places throughout the united states 468 00:19:09,990 --> 00:19:09,280 one of the little tidbits that i picked 469 00:19:13,190 --> 00:19:10,000 up from 470 00:19:15,430 --> 00:19:13,200 ufo researcher grant cameron who i 471 00:19:16,789 --> 00:19:15,440 i like and respect and he had a great 472 00:19:20,070 --> 00:19:16,799 point about the 473 00:19:21,909 --> 00:19:20,080 wilbert smith memo that's pretty famous 474 00:19:24,390 --> 00:19:21,919 and was released back in the 50s through 475 00:19:25,750 --> 00:19:24,400 a freedom of information act 476 00:19:27,510 --> 00:19:25,760 i won't repeat that sir because i've 477 00:19:28,630 --> 00:19:27,520 told so many times and i'm sure you know 478 00:19:31,430 --> 00:19:28,640 it but 479 00:19:34,310 --> 00:19:31,440 you know he's a canadian he's working 480 00:19:37,110 --> 00:19:34,320 the canadian weird desk if you will 481 00:19:38,150 --> 00:19:37,120 and finally he enough ufo stuff piles up 482 00:19:40,390 --> 00:19:38,160 on his desks 483 00:19:41,669 --> 00:19:40,400 that he's he's tells his boss i need to 484 00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:41,679 go down to the states 485 00:19:44,789 --> 00:19:43,360 and he goes down and he meets fandom our 486 00:19:45,430 --> 00:19:44,799 bush and he meets all these other guys 487 00:19:46,950 --> 00:19:45,440 and they say 488 00:19:48,390 --> 00:19:46,960 you got some good stuff so you're in the 489 00:19:49,590 --> 00:19:48,400 club we can tell you a little bit about 490 00:19:51,750 --> 00:19:49,600 what's going on 491 00:19:52,789 --> 00:19:51,760 and they say yeah this is the main thing 492 00:19:55,990 --> 00:19:52,799 the ufo thing 493 00:20:02,630 --> 00:19:59,190 pardon me but would he throw what 494 00:20:04,710 --> 00:20:02,640 what is in the wilbert smith memo 495 00:20:05,990 --> 00:20:04,720 to his boss that was never supposed to 496 00:20:09,110 --> 00:20:06,000 be public 497 00:20:12,630 --> 00:20:09,120 is the last sentence says 498 00:20:15,990 --> 00:20:12,640 they understand it to be a mental 499 00:20:19,510 --> 00:20:16,000 phenomenon and are pursuing it 500 00:20:20,950 --> 00:20:19,520 in those lines and he suspects and i 501 00:20:24,310 --> 00:20:20,960 agree with him 502 00:20:27,430 --> 00:20:24,320 that the rise and the impetus for the 503 00:20:30,230 --> 00:20:27,440 mk ultra program was at least 504 00:20:31,510 --> 00:20:30,240 partially if not significantly driven by 505 00:20:33,990 --> 00:20:31,520 the fact 506 00:20:35,909 --> 00:20:34,000 that they had made some kind of contact 507 00:20:38,830 --> 00:20:35,919 and they had immediately 508 00:20:40,310 --> 00:20:38,840 had to give up this idea of this 509 00:20:43,350 --> 00:20:40,320 materialistic 510 00:20:45,110 --> 00:20:43,360 you are a biological robot 511 00:20:48,149 --> 00:20:45,120 in a meaning it because they were 512 00:20:50,950 --> 00:20:48,159 speaking or communicating telepathically 513 00:20:52,789 --> 00:20:50,960 and then they in typical military 514 00:20:54,950 --> 00:20:52,799 fashion then it became okay how do we do 515 00:20:56,870 --> 00:20:54,960 it how do we weaponize it 516 00:20:58,789 --> 00:20:56,880 and so that's one thread i want you to 517 00:20:59,909 --> 00:20:58,799 pick up on but the other thread that's 518 00:21:02,310 --> 00:20:59,919 really sad 519 00:21:03,029 --> 00:21:02,320 is the splitting is the disassociative 520 00:21:05,430 --> 00:21:03,039 identity 521 00:21:06,310 --> 00:21:05,440 disorder and the weaponization of that 522 00:21:09,510 --> 00:21:06,320 as we've learned 523 00:21:10,950 --> 00:21:09,520 through cult practices through satanic 524 00:21:12,710 --> 00:21:10,960 ritual abuse practices 525 00:21:14,549 --> 00:21:12,720 in the very real way that we study it 526 00:21:17,990 --> 00:21:14,559 among criminals who do that 527 00:21:19,909 --> 00:21:18,000 that this is somehow in some way we 528 00:21:23,270 --> 00:21:19,919 don't completely understand 529 00:21:26,950 --> 00:21:23,280 a tool a mechanism to crack 530 00:21:30,470 --> 00:21:26,960 people open to somehow make them more 531 00:21:32,230 --> 00:21:30,480 pliable in this extended consciousness 532 00:21:33,190 --> 00:21:32,240 realm that again we don't completely 533 00:21:37,110 --> 00:21:33,200 understand 534 00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:37,120 well i think that what happened to me 535 00:21:43,430 --> 00:21:41,760 in that three or four month period 536 00:21:45,350 --> 00:21:43,440 cracked the cosmic egg i know it 537 00:21:47,029 --> 00:21:45,360 shattered my sister and it shattered the 538 00:21:50,230 --> 00:21:47,039 boy from across the street 539 00:21:51,270 --> 00:21:50,240 it ruined their lives and i attribute 540 00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:51,280 they both had 541 00:21:54,789 --> 00:21:54,240 very difficult lives and i attributed to 542 00:21:56,390 --> 00:21:54,799 this 543 00:21:58,149 --> 00:21:56,400 because i don't see there's anything 544 00:22:01,990 --> 00:21:58,159 else to explain it 545 00:22:02,630 --> 00:22:02,000 it was a very placid normal 1950s 546 00:22:03,750 --> 00:22:02,640 neighborhood 547 00:22:05,669 --> 00:22:03,760 you know in other words there was 548 00:22:09,510 --> 00:22:05,679 nothing there except 549 00:22:13,909 --> 00:22:09,520 this that to make them what they became 550 00:22:17,350 --> 00:22:13,919 and uh the boy across the street 551 00:22:20,149 --> 00:22:17,360 lived at home he barely he 552 00:22:20,789 --> 00:22:20,159 had sort of a marriage but he was he 553 00:22:23,430 --> 00:22:20,799 lived in 554 00:22:24,950 --> 00:22:23,440 in the in the room he grew up in until 555 00:22:28,070 --> 00:22:24,960 the day he died 556 00:22:31,750 --> 00:22:28,080 at 53 and 557 00:22:35,510 --> 00:22:31,760 he was interviewed by edward conroy 558 00:22:38,950 --> 00:22:35,520 and he mentioned remembering 559 00:22:39,990 --> 00:22:38,960 something about our childhood that i 560 00:22:42,950 --> 00:22:40,000 think 561 00:22:44,470 --> 00:22:42,960 was verifying in a way that somebody 562 00:22:47,029 --> 00:22:44,480 didn't like 563 00:22:47,909 --> 00:22:47,039 and that's my theory because it of 564 00:22:49,510 --> 00:22:47,919 course 565 00:22:51,350 --> 00:22:49,520 what i'm going to tell you is involves a 566 00:22:56,149 --> 00:22:51,360 va hospital so it could have just been 567 00:22:58,149 --> 00:22:56,159 malpractice but uh he fell off a ladder 568 00:22:59,270 --> 00:22:58,159 and went to the va hospital and they 569 00:23:03,990 --> 00:22:59,280 loaded him up 570 00:23:06,149 --> 00:23:04,000 with so much uh cortisone that he died 571 00:23:07,590 --> 00:23:06,159 and i don't know if they murdered him or 572 00:23:08,710 --> 00:23:07,600 it was malpractice could have been 573 00:23:12,310 --> 00:23:08,720 either 574 00:23:16,710 --> 00:23:12,320 um but uh 575 00:23:21,750 --> 00:23:16,720 the and my sister had a very difficult 576 00:23:24,149 --> 00:23:21,760 life she could never settle somehow 577 00:23:24,789 --> 00:23:24,159 to my knowledge neither of them had any 578 00:23:28,070 --> 00:23:24,799 memory 579 00:23:31,669 --> 00:23:28,080 of the events that took place in 580 00:23:36,310 --> 00:23:31,679 uh in randolph and i'm 581 00:23:38,870 --> 00:23:36,320 they both died before i r but my the um 582 00:23:39,510 --> 00:23:38,880 neighbor died before i remembered it and 583 00:23:41,430 --> 00:23:39,520 my sister 584 00:23:43,669 --> 00:23:41,440 didn't have any memory of it i asked her 585 00:23:45,029 --> 00:23:43,679 about it when she was alive she's passed 586 00:23:48,070 --> 00:23:45,039 on now 587 00:23:51,590 --> 00:23:48,080 but what i think is this 588 00:23:55,430 --> 00:23:51,600 with regard to mk ultra 589 00:23:58,710 --> 00:23:55,440 when the files were released 590 00:24:01,990 --> 00:23:58,720 the judge ordered or allowed 591 00:24:04,070 --> 00:24:02,000 the withholding of a quite a number of 592 00:24:06,310 --> 00:24:04,080 records which are still classified 593 00:24:07,990 --> 00:24:06,320 and still are hidden away at this point 594 00:24:10,310 --> 00:24:08,000 i'm not sure they can be legally 595 00:24:12,710 --> 00:24:10,320 classified anymore 596 00:24:15,669 --> 00:24:12,720 i think it was 44 boxes of files in 597 00:24:19,029 --> 00:24:15,679 other words a lot of files 598 00:24:21,350 --> 00:24:19,039 i believe that these files 599 00:24:22,950 --> 00:24:21,360 probably included maybe among other 600 00:24:25,990 --> 00:24:22,960 things 601 00:24:29,029 --> 00:24:26,000 uh material about 602 00:24:32,149 --> 00:24:29,039 this type of program and they were 603 00:24:34,870 --> 00:24:32,159 withheld because it was so incendiary 604 00:24:35,350 --> 00:24:34,880 that children had been involved but 605 00:24:38,470 --> 00:24:35,360 children 606 00:24:41,590 --> 00:24:38,480 still are involved it's not over 607 00:24:42,230 --> 00:24:41,600 it's not over and you know and you talk 608 00:24:45,350 --> 00:24:42,240 about 609 00:24:48,310 --> 00:24:45,360 ritual abuse and the bizarre 610 00:24:49,909 --> 00:24:48,320 story of the finders comes to mind which 611 00:24:50,710 --> 00:24:49,919 you may have discussed on your show 612 00:24:52,789 --> 00:24:50,720 before 613 00:24:54,470 --> 00:24:52,799 that yeah you're nodding so i won't go 614 00:24:56,789 --> 00:24:54,480 into it in too much detail 615 00:24:59,190 --> 00:24:56,799 but i know an enormous amount about it 616 00:25:03,909 --> 00:25:02,470 in this program was very like in some 617 00:25:07,029 --> 00:25:03,919 ways i think what 618 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:07,039 what was done to us and what was so 619 00:25:16,950 --> 00:25:14,870 was when i read the finder's material 620 00:25:21,029 --> 00:25:16,960 first when it first showed up 621 00:25:25,190 --> 00:25:21,039 years ago back in the in the in the 80s 622 00:25:28,310 --> 00:25:27,190 of course but then later when i 623 00:25:31,510 --> 00:25:28,320 remembered my 624 00:25:33,029 --> 00:25:31,520 experiences more clearly back in the in 625 00:25:35,350 --> 00:25:33,039 the late 90s 626 00:25:37,909 --> 00:25:35,360 of randolph there was more to it than 627 00:25:40,870 --> 00:25:37,919 that there was also a trip to mexico 628 00:25:43,269 --> 00:25:40,880 to monterey when would when does that 629 00:25:48,549 --> 00:25:43,279 fit into the time frame 630 00:25:50,310 --> 00:25:48,559 uh i'm not sure i i must have been 631 00:25:53,669 --> 00:25:50,320 it must have been during that same 632 00:25:56,310 --> 00:25:53,679 period probably in my seventh year 633 00:25:57,110 --> 00:25:56,320 uh and it was in the it was i remember 634 00:26:00,310 --> 00:25:57,120 the flight 635 00:26:03,430 --> 00:26:00,320 was very exciting to me because we 636 00:26:06,789 --> 00:26:03,440 i believe we drew drove to el paso to uh 637 00:26:08,710 --> 00:26:06,799 laredo and then flew to monterey but it 638 00:26:11,430 --> 00:26:08,720 was on a wonderful 639 00:26:13,430 --> 00:26:11,440 one of those old ford tri-motors an old 640 00:26:15,190 --> 00:26:13,440 airplane which in those days were still 641 00:26:17,590 --> 00:26:15,200 flying in mexico 642 00:26:19,430 --> 00:26:17,600 uh you know they were not you know this 643 00:26:21,590 --> 00:26:19,440 was this was the early 50s and so they 644 00:26:26,149 --> 00:26:21,600 were still in operation 645 00:26:30,470 --> 00:26:28,710 in any case in the finders material you 646 00:26:31,350 --> 00:26:30,480 will find that the children said that 647 00:26:42,070 --> 00:26:31,360 they were 648 00:26:45,190 --> 00:26:42,080 and that shocked me and frightened me 649 00:26:47,110 --> 00:26:45,200 and the reason is i have 650 00:26:49,590 --> 00:26:47,120 which i am not going to go into detail 651 00:26:53,029 --> 00:26:49,600 about because i don't know their 652 00:26:54,710 --> 00:26:53,039 their their their their locomotion 653 00:26:58,470 --> 00:26:54,720 within my mind 654 00:27:02,789 --> 00:26:58,480 i have horrifying memories of that place 655 00:27:05,990 --> 00:27:02,799 uh when i went to mexico with my wife 656 00:27:07,909 --> 00:27:06,000 some years ago uh 657 00:27:09,750 --> 00:27:07,919 we stopped in monterey we stayed at the 658 00:27:10,950 --> 00:27:09,760 same hotel i had stayed in with my 659 00:27:13,510 --> 00:27:10,960 sister and dad the 660 00:27:15,750 --> 00:27:13,520 grand and sarah really why did you 661 00:27:19,110 --> 00:27:15,760 choose to do that 662 00:27:22,870 --> 00:27:19,120 i wanted to well we were going to uh 663 00:27:25,029 --> 00:27:22,880 meet friends in um in mexico we i 664 00:27:27,110 --> 00:27:25,039 i'm part mexican so i have a lot of 665 00:27:29,830 --> 00:27:27,120 mexican friends friends and family 666 00:27:30,950 --> 00:27:29,840 but why go back to that same hotel was 667 00:27:34,070 --> 00:27:30,960 it closure for you 668 00:27:34,950 --> 00:27:34,080 i was trying to i was trying to reignite 669 00:27:37,590 --> 00:27:34,960 the memories 670 00:27:38,470 --> 00:27:37,600 i did it very intentionally and then i 671 00:27:40,549 --> 00:27:38,480 also drove 672 00:27:42,149 --> 00:27:40,559 up and down the streets in the hills 673 00:27:46,230 --> 00:27:42,159 above monterey 674 00:27:47,990 --> 00:27:46,240 trying to uh trying to find the place 675 00:27:52,230 --> 00:27:48,000 frankly and i never did i didn't find 676 00:27:55,269 --> 00:27:52,240 anything that that uh 677 00:27:58,230 --> 00:27:55,279 that that was connected that that 678 00:28:00,149 --> 00:27:58,240 that's struck any familiar chord in my 679 00:28:02,310 --> 00:28:00,159 mind i didn't see anything 680 00:28:03,909 --> 00:28:02,320 that i would say was that that though 681 00:28:05,269 --> 00:28:03,919 that was the place that was what i was 682 00:28:07,830 --> 00:28:05,279 trying i was trying to re 683 00:28:09,430 --> 00:28:07,840 to to reconnect with with buried 684 00:28:14,470 --> 00:28:09,440 memories basically 685 00:28:17,830 --> 00:28:14,480 um and i failed uh 686 00:28:22,070 --> 00:28:17,840 but i i'm sure that it that happened 687 00:28:23,830 --> 00:28:22,080 and if it was if the memories i have of 688 00:28:26,549 --> 00:28:23,840 it are true 689 00:28:29,990 --> 00:28:26,559 then it was an absolute nightmare and 690 00:28:33,269 --> 00:28:30,000 the purpose of it would have been 691 00:28:36,310 --> 00:28:33,279 to cause the children to 692 00:28:39,750 --> 00:28:36,320 feel guilty 693 00:28:42,870 --> 00:28:39,760 and to therefore uh 694 00:28:45,909 --> 00:28:45,510 cement their loyalty i wrote a book 695 00:28:49,029 --> 00:28:45,919 called 696 00:28:53,110 --> 00:28:49,039 in hitler's house uh under a 697 00:28:55,190 --> 00:28:53,120 pseudonym of jonathan lane which 698 00:28:56,870 --> 00:28:55,200 mentions something that hitler called 699 00:29:03,590 --> 00:28:56,880 blootkit 700 00:29:11,990 --> 00:29:08,070 blood uh loyalty 701 00:29:16,789 --> 00:29:12,000 and the way this worked was 702 00:29:20,070 --> 00:29:16,799 when a person was inducted into the ss 703 00:29:23,909 --> 00:29:20,080 they were made to do something really 704 00:29:25,350 --> 00:29:23,919 really terrible that everyone else had 705 00:29:27,269 --> 00:29:25,360 done 706 00:29:29,110 --> 00:29:27,279 in the group and then they it made them 707 00:29:30,950 --> 00:29:29,120 feel part of the group 708 00:29:32,710 --> 00:29:30,960 and they had a horrible secret so 709 00:29:34,470 --> 00:29:32,720 terrible they could never tell anyone 710 00:29:36,549 --> 00:29:34,480 this is also what was used in the 711 00:29:39,590 --> 00:29:36,559 recruiting of children in uh 712 00:29:42,470 --> 00:29:39,600 in uh africa in 713 00:29:43,669 --> 00:29:42,480 in the wars that used child armies i 714 00:29:46,230 --> 00:29:43,679 mean this is a standard 715 00:29:47,510 --> 00:29:46,240 standard playbook gangs blood in blood 716 00:29:49,909 --> 00:29:47,520 out uh 717 00:29:51,590 --> 00:29:49,919 you know every criminal organization has 718 00:29:53,190 --> 00:29:51,600 picked up on it it's been around for a 719 00:29:56,070 --> 00:29:53,200 long time doesn't make it 720 00:29:56,870 --> 00:29:56,080 better or anything like that no but it 721 00:30:00,470 --> 00:29:56,880 it was 722 00:30:01,990 --> 00:30:00,480 hitler himself 723 00:30:03,830 --> 00:30:02,000 can i interject a question because when 724 00:30:04,470 --> 00:30:03,840 you're talking about the finders and i 725 00:30:07,590 --> 00:30:04,480 don't want to 726 00:30:08,149 --> 00:30:07,600 trace that whole history for people can 727 00:30:10,149 --> 00:30:08,159 go back 728 00:30:11,190 --> 00:30:10,159 and find it in this show and in other 729 00:30:12,630 --> 00:30:11,200 places and 730 00:30:14,470 --> 00:30:12,640 john brisson was the guy we've 731 00:30:15,190 --> 00:30:14,480 interviewed who's done some terrific 732 00:30:17,990 --> 00:30:15,200 work 733 00:30:20,710 --> 00:30:18,000 original research interviewing uh 734 00:30:24,389 --> 00:30:20,720 martinez who is the customs officer 735 00:30:26,230 --> 00:30:24,399 his partner in dc who kind of crack the 736 00:30:27,669 --> 00:30:26,240 case 737 00:30:30,950 --> 00:30:27,679 here's what's interesting about the 738 00:30:34,230 --> 00:30:30,960 finders which i'd like you to speak to 739 00:30:36,070 --> 00:30:34,240 is the horror the weaponization 740 00:30:38,070 --> 00:30:36,080 i don't take horror out of it because it 741 00:30:40,789 --> 00:30:38,080 immediately throws people off 742 00:30:42,630 --> 00:30:40,799 the weaponization of these extended 743 00:30:45,110 --> 00:30:42,640 consciousness realms 744 00:30:46,310 --> 00:30:45,120 bleeds together into multiple purposes 745 00:30:49,750 --> 00:30:46,320 like you're saying 746 00:30:51,190 --> 00:30:49,760 one hey it it silences people they're 747 00:30:52,789 --> 00:30:51,200 bonded now they can't 748 00:30:55,269 --> 00:30:52,799 they're bonded through fear they're 749 00:30:57,509 --> 00:30:55,279 traumatized and they can't do that 750 00:30:58,789 --> 00:30:57,519 it also creates a situation where you 751 00:31:01,750 --> 00:30:58,799 know in the finders 752 00:31:02,710 --> 00:31:01,760 cult we can now find hey isn't this a 753 00:31:05,029 --> 00:31:02,720 tool to 754 00:31:07,110 --> 00:31:05,039 blackmail other people you know and the 755 00:31:08,789 --> 00:31:07,120 would do a jeffrey epstein brownstoning 756 00:31:09,430 --> 00:31:08,799 operation way back then which they were 757 00:31:12,950 --> 00:31:09,440 doing 758 00:31:16,149 --> 00:31:12,960 but again cross purposes but the third 759 00:31:16,830 --> 00:31:16,159 aspect of it which i think is really 760 00:31:20,070 --> 00:31:16,840 most 761 00:31:21,509 --> 00:31:20,080 intriguing to me and i suspect it is to 762 00:31:22,710 --> 00:31:21,519 you too because i've seen your writing 763 00:31:26,070 --> 00:31:22,720 on it 764 00:31:30,070 --> 00:31:26,080 is the breaking open the cracking 765 00:31:33,190 --> 00:31:30,080 open in order to create 766 00:31:35,350 --> 00:31:33,200 an entry point for 767 00:31:36,230 --> 00:31:35,360 extended consciousness including the 768 00:31:38,549 --> 00:31:36,240 visitors 769 00:31:39,269 --> 00:31:38,559 including what we would call demonic 770 00:31:42,230 --> 00:31:39,279 beings 771 00:31:42,630 --> 00:31:42,240 and again this is i interviewed you know 772 00:31:44,630 --> 00:31:42,640 dr 773 00:31:47,590 --> 00:31:44,640 tom zinzer as a clinical psychologist in 774 00:31:50,389 --> 00:31:47,600 grand rapids michigan who worked 775 00:31:52,549 --> 00:31:50,399 20 years with a lot of people with 776 00:31:54,230 --> 00:31:52,559 dissociative identity disorder and many 777 00:31:56,310 --> 00:31:54,240 many of them satanic ritual abuse 778 00:31:58,710 --> 00:31:56,320 victims and that is exactly his finding 779 00:32:00,230 --> 00:31:58,720 is that that's why they do it they 780 00:32:03,430 --> 00:32:00,240 intentionally try and create 781 00:32:05,750 --> 00:32:03,440 this did situation because 782 00:32:07,029 --> 00:32:05,760 without even fully understanding it they 783 00:32:10,789 --> 00:32:07,039 know it creates 784 00:32:13,110 --> 00:32:10,799 an entry point and i i wonder if we were 785 00:32:14,389 --> 00:32:13,120 as horrible as it is if our intelligence 786 00:32:16,230 --> 00:32:14,399 organizations had 787 00:32:17,750 --> 00:32:16,240 halfway figured that out and we're 788 00:32:22,070 --> 00:32:17,760 fooling around with 789 00:32:23,750 --> 00:32:22,080 how to create that that entry point 790 00:32:26,070 --> 00:32:23,760 you know let me let me tell you 791 00:32:29,110 --> 00:32:26,080 something about black magic 792 00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:29,120 first it's quite real and second 793 00:32:36,950 --> 00:32:32,960 it's like fly paper you touch it 794 00:32:39,750 --> 00:32:36,960 you can never escape can never escape 795 00:32:42,230 --> 00:32:39,760 an organization touches it that 796 00:32:46,230 --> 00:32:42,240 organization is part of it 797 00:32:49,509 --> 00:32:46,240 every country a country too 798 00:32:50,630 --> 00:32:49,519 and it it the more you try to escape 799 00:32:54,149 --> 00:32:50,640 from it 800 00:32:55,990 --> 00:32:54,159 the deeper you get there's only one way 801 00:32:59,590 --> 00:32:56,000 to escape 802 00:33:03,750 --> 00:32:59,600 and that is to live a life 803 00:33:06,950 --> 00:33:03,760 of love compassion and humility 804 00:33:10,389 --> 00:33:06,960 if you do not actively work 805 00:33:14,070 --> 00:33:10,399 on that you will 806 00:33:18,789 --> 00:33:14,080 not escape and you have these 807 00:33:21,830 --> 00:33:18,799 this whole community of people who are 808 00:33:24,470 --> 00:33:21,840 who are so arrogant i know many 809 00:33:26,630 --> 00:33:24,480 people in intelligence work i grew up in 810 00:33:27,909 --> 00:33:26,640 a family that was involved in it for 811 00:33:31,190 --> 00:33:27,919 god's sakes 812 00:33:35,029 --> 00:33:31,200 and it

feeds the ego 816 00:33:46,710 --> 00:33:42,480 in a very sick way 817 00:33:49,830 --> 00:33:46,720 you have to work hard to be humble 818 00:33:51,590 --> 00:33:49,840 you know the first lesson the visitors 819 00:33:55,750 --> 00:33:51,600 when the visitors really started to work 820 00:33:59,350 --> 00:33:57,909 the first lesson was a lesson in 821 00:34:02,870 --> 00:33:59,360 humility 822 00:34:05,990 --> 00:34:02,880 now the dark side is extremely clever 823 00:34:09,589 --> 00:34:06,000 and it would know that i might be drawn 824 00:34:13,030 --> 00:34:09,599 in to accepting it 825 00:34:16,310 --> 00:34:13,040 as not the dark side because 826 00:34:17,510 --> 00:34:16,320 it gave me lessons in things like 827 00:34:21,190 --> 00:34:17,520 humility 828 00:34:24,230 -->

extremely secret and considered 889 00:37:02,310 --> 00:37:00,800 very very perverse and bizarre and 890 00:37:04,870 --> 00:37:02,320 that's how the people who 891 00:37:06,470 --> 00:37:04,880 needed to do it these poor people 892 00:37:08,550 --> 00:37:06,480 thought of themselves including someone 893 00:37:11,190 --> 00:37:08,560 like hoover um 894 00:37:12,150 --> 00:37:11,200 and uh

as the 962 00:39:49,750 --> 00:39:47,040 places between that that hold this 963 00:39:51,510 --> 00:39:49,760 the elect of electromagnetic body if you 964 00:39:54,550 --> 00:39:51,520 will or the second body 965 00:39:58,470 --> 00:39:54,560 to the first body are opened and then 966 00:40:02,550 --> 00:39:58,480 i come right out and i'm still conscious 967 00:40:05,270 --> 00:40:02,560 i'm well able to function in the world 968 00:40:06,950 --> 00:40:05,280 uh i can be seen often by people i've 969 00:40:09,589 --> 00:40:06,960 interacted with people 970 00:40:10,309 --> 00:40:09,599 i uh was seen by linda howell much to 971 00:40:13,349 --> 00:40:10,319 her 972 00:40:16,309 --> 00:40:13,359 annoyance one time i've been seen and 973 00:40:16,710 --> 00:40:16,319 interacted with other people as well so 974 00:40:22,630 --> 00:40:16,720 it's 975 00:40:23,510 --> 00:40:22,640 now there are predatory levels of this 976 00:40:26,870 --> 00:40:23,520 whole thing 977 00:40:27,990 --> 00:40:26,880 there's a whole world outside of the 978 00:40:31,349 --> 00:40:28,000 physical world 979 00:40:33,270 --> 00:40:31,359 a bigger world filled with entities 980 00:40:34,390 --> 00:40:33,280 and i think some of those entities are 981 00:40:36,710 --> 00:40:34,400 just like 982 00:40:38,710 --> 00:40:36,720 sharks i mean they're like they're like 983 00:40:41,190 --> 00:40:38,720 almost almost not 984 00:40:42,550 --> 00:40:41,200 not they're let's call them brilliant 985 00:40:45,109 --> 00:40:42,560 animals 986 00:40:46,790 --> 00:40:45,119 and they will they will attack people 987 00:40:48,710 --> 00:40:46,800 they are predators 988 00:40:50,790 --> 00:40:48,720 they attack cattle then they 989 00:40:51,430 --> 00:40:50,800 occasionally attack human beings i think 990 00:40:53,829 --> 00:40:51,440 that 991 00:40:55,510 --> 00:40:53,839 when they're they do attack human beings 992 00:40:58,950 --> 00:40:55,520 if they are stopped 993 00:41:01,990 --> 00:40:58,960 uh i i think that there's a case 994 00:41:04,470 --> 00:41:02,000 uh there that the cases i mentioned in 995 00:41:06,309 --> 00:41:04,480 a new world i think happened i think 996

00:41:22,069 --> 00:41:20,000 time 1003 00:41:23,109 --> 00:41:22,079 when people are vulnerable but a 1004 00:41:26,630 --> 00:41:23,119 particularly 1005 00:41:29,829 --> 00:41:26,640 type of people

00:43:00,309 --> 00:42:58,640 being dominated sexually before in my 1050 00:43:03,030 --> 00:43:00,319 life until that night 1051 00:43:03,430 --> 00:43:03,040 and that's exactly how i felt i mean 1052 00:43:06,950 --> 00:43:03,440 they 1053 00:43:13,270 --> 00:43:06,960 with a 1054 00:43:14,710 --> 00:43:13,280 like a it's called an electro stimulator 1055 00:43:18,069 --> 00:43:14,720 um 1056 00:43:21,030 --> 00:43:18,079 they they extracted semen from me 1057 00:43:23,190 --> 00:43:21,040 uh you talk about and i was totally in 1058 00:43:25,349 --> 00:43:23,200 completely helpless the whole time 1059 00:43:27,750 --> 00:43:25,359 it was sexual domination there's no 1060 00:43:30,870 --> 00:43:27,760 question about that's what it was 1061 00:43:34,630 --> 00:43:30,880 but i i came to a point 1062 00:43:37,109 --> 00:43:34,640 where i had to make a choice 1063 00:43:37,750 --> 00:43:37,119 i knew they were at this point that they 1064 00:43:39,670 --> 00:43:37,760 were real 1065 00:43:40,870 --> 00:43:39,680 and they were either permanently part of 1066 00:43:42,950 --> 00:43:40,880 the physical world 1067 00:43:44,870 --> 00:43:42,960 and very clever at concealing themselves 1068 00:43:46,710 --> 00:43:44,880 or they were something else 1069 00:43:48,230 --> 00:43:46,720 that would project themselves into the 1070 00:43:51,190 --> 00:43:48,240 physical world 1071 00:43:52,069 --> 00:43:51,200 i still can't tell you which exactly is 1072 00:43:54,230 --> 00:43:52,079 the case 1073 00:43:56,390 --> 00:43:54,240 although i think that it's probably a 1074 00:43:59,109 --> 00:43:56,400 mix of 1075 00:44:01,030 --> 00:43:59,119 there's probably a spectrum of of this 1076 00:44:03,589 --> 00:44:01,040 of some kind 1077 00:44:04,230 --> 00:44:03,599 but i had to make a choice either i was 1078 00:44:07,270 --> 00:44:04,240 going to 1079 00:44:10,230 --> 00:44:07,280 try to see what they were all about 1080 00:44:10,550 --> 00:44:10,240 and to see if they would engage with me 1081 00:44:14,150 --> 00:44:10,560 on 1082 00:44:16,710 --> 00:44:14,160 some more acceptable level 1083 00:44:17,910 --> 00:44:16,720 or not and that's why i started walking 1084 00:44:19,030 --> 00:44:17,920 out in the woods in the middle of the 1085 00:44:20,790 --> 00:44:19,040 night 1086 00:44:22,069 --> 00:44:20,800 knowing what had happened to me at that 1087 00:44:24,790 --> 00:44:22,079 point i knew very well 1088 00:44:26,150 --> 00:44:24,800 what they had done and i did not know 1089 00:44:28,069 --> 00:44:26,160 whether or not 1090 00:44:29,990 --> 00:44:28,079 i would ever come back when i went out 1091 00:44:31,589 --> 00:44:30,000 there because i thought they were 1092 00:44:34,470 --> 00:44:31,599 incredibly dangerous 1093 00:44:36,309 --> 00:44:34,480 and i still do i don't think that there 1094 00:44:38,550 --> 00:44:36,319 it's all sweetness and light and 1095 00:44:39,670 --> 00:44:38,560 you know you have these people out there 1096 00:44:42,150 --> 00:44:39,680 who who are 1097 00:44:44,069 --> 00:44:42,160 basically kind of blaming us because 1098 00:44:47,030 --> 00:44:44,079 we're scared then they're 1099 00:44:49,109 --> 00:44:47,040 you know you have you have a lot of 1100 00:44:52,950 --> 00:44:49,119 people in the ufo community 1101 00:44:54,150 --> 00:44:52,960 who do ce fives and so forth 1102 00:44:56,470 --> 00:44:54,160 who are saying that they're all 1103 00:44:57,750 --> 00:44:56,480 sweetness and light but these are also 1104 00:45:00,550 --> 00:44:57,760 people who had 1105 00:45:02,309 --> 00:45:00,560 have very little empathy for other human 1106 00:45:04,150 --> 00:45:02,319 beings in my opinion 1107 00:45:06,309 --> 00:45:04,160 because it's not all sweetness and light 1108 00:45:09,510 --> 00:45:06,319 it's a hard experience 1109 00:45:09,910 --> 00:45:09,520 and making it i've tried my best to make 1110 00:45:13,430 --> 00:45:09,920 it 1111 00:45:17,190 --> 00:45:13,440 something of value for me but 1112 00:45:20,230 --> 00:45:17,200 boy i'm telling you right now i'm not 1113 00:45:23,990 --> 00:45:20,240 i don't trust the visitors i trust 1114 00:45:24,470 --> 00:45:24,000 my innate goodness as a human being that 1115 00:45:28,790 --> 00:45:24,480 i do 1116 00:45:32,150 --> 00:45:28,800 not 1117 00:45:35,430 --> 00:45:32,160 trust their various attempts 1118 00:45:36,309 --> 00:45:35,440 to make themselves seem more angelic to 1119 00:45:39,430 --> 00:45:36,319 me 1120 00:45:40,309 --> 00:45:39,440 i think that they got caught in a dark 1121 00:45:43,030 --> 00:45:40,319 vortex 1122 00:45:43,589 --> 00:45:43,040 a long time ago some of them did and 1123 00:45:47,030 --> 00:45:43,599 they are 1124 00:45:47,990 --> 00:45:47,040 trapped in it and i'm not there i am not 1125 00:45:50,870 --> 00:45:48,000 trapped in it 1126 00:45:52,870 --> 00:45:50,880 and i am also not involved i do not have 1127 00:45:55,910 --> 00:45:52,880 stockholm syndrome at all 1128 00:45:57,990 --> 00:45:55,920 i've i've worried about that a lot 1129 00:46:01,829 --> 00:45:58,000 because i don't want to be an apologist 1130 00:46:06,390 --> 00:46:01,839 for monsters and 1131 00:46:09,430 --> 00:46:06,400 frankly you can you can make a choice 1132 00:46:13,030 --> 00:46:09,440 you can take what they have to 1133 00:46:17,670 --> 00:46:13,040 dish out and make it your own 1134 00:46:20,470 --> 00:46:17,680 and make it part of your growth and your 1135 00:46:22,069 --> 00:46:20,480 your exploration of your own ethical 1136 00:46:25,510 --> 00:46:22,079 journey 1137 00:46:27,990 --> 00:46:25,520 or you can fall into a trap which is you 1138 00:46:30,309 --> 00:46:28,000 can decide that they're really angels 1139 00:46:32,069 --> 00:46:30,319 or you can decide that there are demons 1140 00:46:34,550 --> 00:46:32,079 and i don't want a goddamn thing to do 1141 00:46:38,710 --> 00:46:34,560 with them you can do those things 1142 00:46:41,109 --> 00:46:38,720 i chose the other path the middle path 1143 00:46:41,990 --> 00:46:41,119 you know there's so many uh profound 1144 00:46:44,309 --> 00:46:42,000 points to that 1145 00:46:45,589 --> 00:46:44,319 that we're not going to be able to get 1146 00:46:48,950 --> 00:46:45,599 into but 1147 00:46:50,069 --> 00:46:48,960 profound profound the vortex of evil 1148 00:46:52,630 --> 00:46:50,079 that they are 1149 00:46:54,230 --> 00:46:52,640 found themselves in and are ultimately 1150 00:46:56,230 --> 00:46:54,240 trying to get out of and i would tie 1151 00:46:59,510 --> 00:46:56,240 that back to your fly paper 1152 00:47:01,670 --> 00:46:59,520 comment that we may be entering in 1153 00:47:03,030 --> 00:47:01,680 that same vortex and we'll find 1154 00:47:06,069 --> 00:47:03,040 ourselves trying to find 1155 00:47:07,349 --> 00:47:06,079 our way out of it which maybe we are 1156 00:47:09,030 --> 00:47:07,359 maybe we're not even to the point where 1157 00:47:09,589 --> 00:47:09,040 we realize we do need to find our way 1158 00:47:11,750 --> 00:47:09,599 out of it 1159 00:47:12,950 --> 00:47:11,760 the question i ask because i've 1160 00:47:14,710 --> 00:47:12,960 interviewed so many near-death 1161 00:47:15,349 --> 00:47:14,720 experience researchers and i've found 1162 00:47:20,309 --> 00:47:15,359 that 1163 00:47:23,589 --> 00:47:20,319 point with over 200 peer-reviewed papers 1164 00:47:24,230 --> 00:47:23,599 so meaningful to not only me if somebody 1165 00:47:26,390 --> 00:47:24,240 who's never 1166 00:47:28,309 --> 00:47:26,400 ex never had a near-death experience i 1167 00:47:30,790 --> 00:47:28,319 know your wife did i know it was 1168 00:47:32,150 --> 00:47:30,800 key to her spiritual journey and maybe 1169 00:47:34,230 --> 00:47:32,160 we could talk about that 1170 00:47:35,430 --> 00:47:34,240 but the let one of the lessons we get 1171 00:47:39,349 --> 00:47:35,440 from the near-death 1172 00:47:42,870 --> 00:47:39,359 experience is that it is about 1173 00:47:45,589 --> 00:47:42,880 this journey to and through the light 1174 00:47:46,230 --> 00:47:45,599 and that what i find profound profound 1175 00:47:49,109 --> 00:47:46,240 about that 1176 00:47:50,470 --> 00:47:49,119 is the idea that yes you will be judged 1177 00:47:54,470 --> 00:47:50,480 you will be judged for 1178 00:47:58,230 --> 00:47:54,480 every action every thought every deed 1179 00:48:00,950 --> 00:47:58,240 but not by someone else but by yourself 1180 00:48:03,030 --> 00:48:00,960 by your soul by that voice that has 1181 00:48:04,950 --> 00:48:03,040 always been with us 1182 00:48:06,150 --> 00:48:04,960 from the time we're a little kid where 1183 00:48:08,710 --> 00:48:06,160 we know 1184 00:48:09,349 --> 00:48:08,720 what's right and what's wrong so in the 1185 00:48:13,030 --> 00:48:09,359 book 1186 00:48:16,390 --> 00:48:13,040 a new world you have a gran 1187 00:48:18,230 --> 00:48:16,400 just an opening here that we 1188 00:48:19,430 --> 00:48:18,240 you will you will not close which you 1189 00:48:21,190 --> 00:48:19,440 shouldn't close because we don't have 1190 00:48:23,589 --> 00:48:21,200 any complete closure on it but here's 1191 00:48:27,270 --> 00:48:26,150 what we would appear to be looking at 1192 00:48:29,910 --> 00:48:27,280 then 1193 00:48:32,470 --> 00:48:29,920 in both the close encounter and the 1194 00:48:36,950 --> 00:48:32,480 near-death experiences 1195 00:48:38,870 --> 00:48:36,960 is a massive increase in initiation 1196 00:48:40,950 --> 00:48:38,880 so do you want to speak about uh 1197 00:48:42,710 --> 00:48:40,960 near-death experience its connection or 1198 00:48:44,710 --> 00:48:42,720 anything else there 1199 00:48:45,829 --> 00:48:44,720 well i would like to first speak about 1200 00:48:53,670 --> 00:48:45,839 initiation 1201 00:48:55,829 --> 00:48:53,680 is not fun uh 1202 00:48:56,950 --> 00:48:55,839 all the way back to the beginning of 1203 00:48:59,829 --> 00:48:56,960 initiatory 1204 00:49:01,910 --> 00:48:59,839 activities in this world a real 1205 00:49:04,950 --> 00:49:01,920 initiation 1206 00:49:08,790 --> 00:49:04,960 involves a real challenge 1207 00:49:13,349 --> 00:49:08,800 of death when jesus says 1208 00:49:16,470 --> 00:49:13,359 uh he talks about in various ways 1209 00:49:19,750 --> 00:49:16,480 of dying to this world and then you will 1210 00:49:20,870 --> 00:49:19,760 never taste of death again what he's 1211 00:49:23,910 --> 00:49:20,880 talking about is 1212 00:49:28,069 --> 00:49:23,920 an initiatory experience 1213 00:49:31,910 --> 00:49:28,079 that causes you to 1214 00:49:35,510 --> 00:49:31,920 face and live through 1215 00:49:39,349 --> 00:49:35,520 death and come out on the other side 1216 00:49:42,470 --> 00:49:39,359 knowing that you that there is 1217 00:49:43,109 --> 00:49:42,480 more to this to this experience than the 1218 00:49:46,549 --> 00:49:43,119 physical 1219 00:49:47,670 --> 00:49:46,559 world and that's exactly what happened 1220 00:49:50,790 --> 00:49:47,680 to ann 1221 00:49:53,829 --> 00:49:50,800 she went she had a massive 1222 00:49:56,549 --> 00:49:53,839 stroke she 1223 00:49:57,990 --> 00:49:56,559 was i was told by the doctors on the 1224 00:50:00,390 --> 00:49:58,000 night they brought her in that she would 1225 00:50:03,910 --> 00:50:00,400 not last until the morning 1226 00:50:06,069 --> 00:50:03,920 but they saved her they did it it wasn't 1227 00:50:09,109 --> 00:50:06,079 a miracle it was medical 1228 00:50:10,150 --> 00:50:09,119 skill and they brought her all the way 1229 00:50:13,190 --> 00:50:10,160 back 1230 00:50:16,069 --> 00:50:13,200 from the other side of death 1231 00:50:18,390 --> 00:50:16,079 to this life again and she had a 1232 00:50:22,150 --> 00:50:18,400 near-death experience in the 1233 00:50:24,950 --> 00:50:22,160 in the um in in this 1234 00:50:26,309 --> 00:50:24,960 process it wasn't a classic near-death 1235 00:50:27,910 --> 00:50:26,319 experience 1236 00:50:30,390 --> 00:50:27,920 going into the light of seeing the light 1237 00:50:32,710 --> 00:50:30,400 etc and so forth it was much more 1238 00:50:34,069 --> 00:50:32,720 down to earth and ann like she ended up 1239 00:50:37,190 --> 00:50:34,079 in a bus station 1240 00:50:39,349 --> 00:50:37,200 which which where she was seeing 1241 00:50:42,150 --> 00:50:39,359 saw people all sitting on benches with 1242 00:50:43,910 --> 00:50:42,160 big parcels in their hands 1243 00:50:45,670 --> 00:50:43,920 and she didn't have anything in her 1244 00:50:46,870 --> 00:50:45,680 hands and she was told she could either 1245 00:50:49,270 --> 00:50:46,880 go on 1246 00:50:51,349 --> 00:50:49,280 or come back if she wished and she 1247 00:50:53,990 --> 00:50:51,359 decided to come back 1248 00:50:55,670 --> 00:50:54,000 and after that she was no longer afraid 1249 00:50:58,790 --> 00:50:55,680 of death in any way 1250 00:51:01,430 --> 00:50:58,800 when it came time for her to 1251 00:51:02,309 --> 00:51:01,440 go her body was collapsing i mean her 1252 00:51:05,349 --> 00:51:02,319 brain was 1253 00:51:09,109 --> 00:51:05,359 she was having stroke after stroke 1254 00:51:11,589 --> 00:51:09,119 because of cancer the result of 1255 00:51:13,270 --> 00:51:11,599 they're being unable to take a tumor 1256 00:51:14,790 --> 00:51:13,280 entirely out of her brain 1257 00:51:16,309 --> 00:51:14,800 and the weight of the tumor was 1258 00:51:19,349 --> 00:51:16,319 destroying her brain 1259 00:51:20,390 --> 00:51:19,359 and she had lost lost the entire right 1260 00:51:28,549 --> 00:51:20,400 side of her body 1261 00:51:29,829 --> 00:51:28,559 she said to me one day in july of 2015 1262 00:51:32,870 --> 00:51:29,839 whitley it's time 1263 00:51:35,910 --> 00:51:32,880 i'm going and i said 1264 00:51:37,750 --> 00:51:35,920 i was just heartbroken of course because 1265 00:51:41,349 --> 00:51:37,760 i wanted anne with me 1266 00:51:42,150 --> 00:51:41,359 physically in any form she happened to 1267 00:51:44,870 --> 00:51:42,160 be 1268 00:51:46,710 --> 00:51:44,880 sick or healthy but i could well 1269 00:51:47,990 --> 00:51:46,720 understand she couldn't even get up out 1270 00:51:50,390 --> 00:51:48,000 of bed she had to be helped 1271 00:51:51,349 --> 00:51:50,400 to do everything and that would be the 1272 00:51:54,069 --> 00:51:51,359 case 1273 00:51:54,390 --> 00:51:54,079 until something ghastly happened like 1274 00:51:58,150 --> 00:51:54,400 she 1275 00:52:00,390 --> 00:51:58,160 became locked in or uh her lungs stopped 1276 00:52:04,390 --> 00:52:00,400 working and she died of suffocation 1277 00:52:06,790 --> 00:52:04,400 and so i called hospice 1278 00:52:07,990 --> 00:52:06,800 and they came and they talked to anne 1279 00:52:10,150 --> 00:52:08,000 and at that point i was 1280 00:52:11,030 --> 00:52:10,160 i had to be out of the picture legally 1281 00:52:14,069 --> 00:52:11,040 we didn't have 1282 00:52:14,630 --> 00:52:14,079 you you didn't have you had to you had 1283 00:52:22,150 --> 00:52:14,640 to 1284 00:52:25,109 --> 00:52:22,160 the supreme court had decided 1285 00:52:25,589 --> 00:52:25,119 if you did that then you had the right 1286 00:52:31,510 --> 00:52:25,599 to 1287 00:52:34,309 --> 00:52:31,520 that's what she did and she only lasted 1288 00:52:37,910 --> 00:52:34,319 a few days and those were the hardest 1289 00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:37,920 and most extraordinary days of my life 1290 00:52:41,910 --> 00:52:40,770 she came back she died at 7 15 1291 00:52:44,549 --> 00:52:41,920 [Music] 1292 00:52:45,109 --> 00:52:44,559 she began reconnecting with me through 1293 00:52:47,829 --> 00:52:45,119 friends 1294 00:52:49,270 --> 00:52:47,839 at 9 30 that night she didn't come 1295 00:52:51,910 --> 00:52:49,280 directly to me because she knew 1296 00:52:53,510 --> 00:52:51,920 i was too hard-headed i would never 1297 00:52:57,270 --> 00:52:53,520 believed it 1298 00:53:00,630 --> 00:52:57,280 but now i have learned 1299 00:53:03,510 --> 00:53:00,640 how to share this body with her 1300 00:53:04,309 --> 00:53:03,520 she can use it this is why symbolically 1301 00:53:06,710 --> 00:53:04,319 i wear both 1302 00:53:08,150 --> 00:53:06,720 rings because as far as i'm concerned 1303 00:53:11,190 --> 00:53:08,160 we're still married 1304 00:53:13,190 --> 00:53:11,200 we're just down to this one body anyway 1305 00:53:14,790 --> 00:53:13,200 it's all in 1306 00:53:17,430 --> 00:53:14,800 the book i wrote with anne after she 1307 00:53:19,510 --> 00:53:17,440 died the afterlife revolution 1308 00:53:21,190 --> 00:53:19,520 and you know there's such wisdom she's 1309 00:53:24,630 --> 00:53:21,200 had given me such 1310 00:53:27,349 --> 00:53:24,640 wisdom in in her afterlife 1311 00:53:28,150 --> 00:53:27,359 among the things that she said that are 1312 00:53:31,510 --> 00:53:28,160 great 1313 00:53:32,470 --> 00:53:31,520 are the human species is too young to 1314 00:53:35,030 --> 00:53:32,480 have beliefs 1315 00:53:36,790 --> 00:53:35,040 but we need are good questions and but 1316 00:53:39,829 --> 00:53:36,800 the other one that i think is 1317 00:53:42,870 --> 00:53:39,839 is it's a it's a 1318 00:53:46,069 --> 00:53:42,880 life aim that is 1319 00:53:47,990 --> 00:53:46,079 not reachable probably in life but is a 1320 00:53:50,549 --> 00:53:48,000 wonderful aim to have 1321 00:53:52,150 --> 00:53:50,559 it is that enlightenment is what happens 1322 00:53:56,790 --> 00:53:52,160 when there is nothing left of us 1323 00:54:00,069 --> 00:53:56,800 but love you start down that path 1324 00:54:05,349 --> 00:54:00,079 and immediately the dark side's having 1325 00:54:13,430 --> 00:54:09,349 quickly you got me choked up um 1326 00:54:16,309 --> 00:54:13,440 me too tell us tell us what's going on 1327 00:54:17,190 --> 00:54:16,319 with uh with you what else is going on 1328 00:54:18,390 --> 00:54:17,200 this new book 1329 00:54:20,870 --> 00:54:18,400 again people are going to want to check 1330 00:54:22,950 --> 00:54:20,880 out a new world and 1331 00:54:23,990 --> 00:54:22,960 of course the website what's going on 1332 00:54:27,589 --> 00:54:24,000 there 1333 00:54:31,270 --> 00:54:27,599 and what's next what's next for you 1334 00:54:35,829 --> 00:54:31,280 i am writing a book about jesus 1335 00:54:38,630 --> 00:54:35,839 it is not like other books about jesus 1336 00:54:39,349 --> 00:54:38,640 are you is the historical aspect of 1337 00:54:42,309 --> 00:54:39,359 jesus 1338 00:54:43,670 --> 00:54:42,319 important to you or are you okay with 1339 00:54:45,430 --> 00:54:43,680 those who understand 1340 00:54:47,430 --> 00:54:45,440 christ consciousness but are a little 1341 00:54:50,150 --> 00:54:47,440 bit less 1342 00:54:52,309 --> 00:54:50,160 sold on the historical aspects the way 1343 00:54:54,549 --> 00:54:52,319 it's been told to us what's your opinion 1344 00:54:56,789 --> 00:54:54,559 there are two histories of jesus there 1345 00:54:58,870 --> 00:54:56,799 there are three histories of jesus 1346 00:55:00,390 --> 00:54:58,880 one is the secular history of jesus 1347 00:55:05,510 --> 00:55:00,400 which you can 1348 00:55:07,349 --> 00:55:05,520 get in a book like zealot by reza aslan 1349 00:55:08,870 --> 00:55:07,359 which is essentially that he was a 1350 00:55:10,950 --> 00:55:08,880 revolutionary 1351 00:55:13,109 --> 00:55:10,960 there was no there were no real miracles 1352 00:55:17,030 --> 00:55:13,119 there was no resurrection all that 1353 00:55:20,789 --> 00:55:17,040 is uh just um hyperbole 1354 00:55:21,589 --> 00:55:20,799 or there is the traditional christian 1355 00:55:24,870 --> 00:55:21,599 jesus 1356 00:55:28,309 --> 00:55:24,880 he was a god come to earth 1357 00:55:33,349 --> 00:55:28,319 there's another jesus that is 1358 00:55:35,349 --> 00:55:33,359 unremarked but more important 1359 00:55:37,589 --> 00:55:35,359 three things have happened that caused 1360 00:55:39,990 --> 00:55:37,599 that other jesus to re-emerge 1361 00:55:42,230 --> 00:55:40,000 as he said if you do not awaken i will 1362 00:55:44,870 --> 00:55:42,240 return as a thief in the night 1363 00:55:46,870 --> 00:55:44,880 one is the shroud of turin the moment 1364 00:55:49,349 --> 00:55:46,880 the first photograph was taken of it in 1365 00:55:51,990 --> 00:55:49,359 1898 suddenly 1366 00:55:53,750 --> 00:55:52,000 we had a picture of him the second is 1367 00:55:55,589 --> 00:55:53,760 the gospel of thomas and the third is 1368 00:55:58,549 --> 00:55:55,599 the gospel of mary 1369 00:56:00,870 --> 00:55:58,559 those three things taken together add up 1370 00:56:03,870 --> 00:56:00,880 to a new vision of jesus 1371 00:56:05,750 --> 00:56:03,880 the uh shroud of turin was debunked in 1372 00:56:09,030 --> 00:56:05,760 1988 1373 00:56:09,750 --> 00:56:09,040 as being a medieval forgery this is 1374 00:56:12,309 --> 00:56:09,760 false 1375 00:56:15,109 --> 00:56:12,319 it is not a medieval forgery and there 1376 00:56:18,710 --> 00:56:15,119 is plenty of science that has been done 1377 00:56:21,910 --> 00:56:18,720 since then that shows that it is indeed 1378 00:56:24,870 --> 00:56:21,920 an extremely strange object it's the 1379 00:56:28,950 --> 00:56:24,880 strangest thing in the world 1380 00:56:32,549 --> 00:56:28,960 but it doesn't mean that jesus was a god 1381 00:56:35,190 --> 00:56:32,559 it means that we don't know what we 1382 00:56:35,910 --> 00:56:35,200 are just as you said at the beginning 1383 00:56:39,750 --> 00:56:35,920 this is the 1384 00:56:42,390 --> 00:56:39,760 central aim of human life 1385 00:56:44,630 --> 00:56:42,400 finding out who we are and my new book 1386 00:56:49,190 --> 00:56:44,640 about jesus is about just that 1387 00:56:52,069 --> 00:56:49,200 it's about using the example jesus said 1388 00:56:53,430 --> 00:56:52,079 to find out who we are and as far as the 1389 00:56:56,950 --> 00:56:53,440 idea that he didn't 1390 00:56:59,349 --> 00:56:56,960 actually exist at all 1391 00:57:00,630 --> 00:56:59,359 well that's a very interesting question 1392 00:57:02,950 --> 00:57:00,640 that i address in the book 1393 00:57:04,870 --> 00:57:02,960 extensively i think there was a 1394 00:57:07,990 --> 00:57:04,880 historical jesus 1395 00:57:10,710 --> 00:57:08,000 and i think that that the story 1396 00:57:11,190 --> 00:57:10,720 the real story of the historical jesus 1397 00:57:14,549 --> 00:57:11,200 is 1398 00:57:15,990 --> 00:57:14,559 also a story about a group of initiates 1399 00:57:18,309 --> 00:57:16,000 who worked with him 1400 00:57:20,069 --> 00:57:18,319 who you can find if you do a lot of 1401 00:57:22,950 --> 00:57:20,079 detective work and careful 1402 00:57:24,950 --> 00:57:22,960 reading of the gospels you can find 1403 00:57:27,430 --> 00:57:24,960 their presence they're like a shadow 1404 00:57:28,069 --> 00:57:27,440 in the gospels they don't really emerge 1405 00:57:30,470 --> 00:57:28,079 but i 1406 00:57:31,589 --> 00:57:30,480 i shined a light on them in my book i 1407 00:57:33,990 --> 00:57:31,599 hope 1408 00:57:35,030 --> 00:57:34,000 um when will that be out that's gonna 1409 00:57:37,510 --> 00:57:35,040 really be 1410 00:57:39,109 --> 00:57:37,520 interesting you know because let me just 1411 00:57:40,549 --> 00:57:39,119 interject here a little bit what i 1412 00:57:41,750 --> 00:57:40,559 always think is interesting about the 1413 00:57:44,069 --> 00:57:41,760 jesus thing 1414 00:57:45,349 --> 00:57:44,079 and it's mainly because of my work my 1415 00:57:47,270 --> 00:57:45,359 interest 1416 00:57:48,470 --> 00:57:47,280 in near-death experience science and 1417 00:57:50,549 --> 00:57:48,480 always throw science in there because 1418 00:57:53,510 --> 00:57:50,559 there's still a lot of people who are 1419 00:57:55,190 --> 00:57:53,520 don't understand that just because we 1420 00:57:55,510 --> 00:57:55,200 don't understand something completely 1421 00:57:56,549 --> 00:57:55,520 just 1422 00:57:57,910 --> 00:57:56,559 because we don't understand 1423 00:57:59,109 --> 00:57:57,920 consciousness just because we don't 1424 00:58:01,990 --> 00:57:59,119 understand 1425 00:58:03,510 --> 00:58:02,000 what anne experienced in that bus 1426 00:58:06,630 --> 00:58:03,520 station 1427 00:58:08,069 --> 00:58:06,640 doesn't mean that it isn't it isn't what 1428 00:58:10,710 --> 00:58:08,079 we would term real 1429 00:58:12,069 --> 00:58:10,720 you know but i've interviewed so many 1430 00:58:14,549 --> 00:58:12,079 people that have had 1431 00:58:16,230 --> 00:58:14,559 experiences with christ consciousness 1432 00:58:20,069 --> 00:58:16,240 and they have a knowing 1433 00:58:23,670 --> 00:58:20,079 and i always want to say that i totally 1434 00:58:25,510 --> 00:58:23,680 accept that on a very very real level 1435 00:58:27,670 --> 00:58:25,520 that not it's not just what they 1436 00:58:29,270 --> 00:58:27,680 believed that there is definitely a 1437 00:58:31,349 --> 00:58:29,280 reality to that 1438 00:58:33,030 --> 00:58:31,359 but i love the way that and i don't want 1439 00:58:35,270 --> 00:58:33,040 to put words in your mouth but 1440 00:58:36,789 --> 00:58:35,280 what i hear you saying is you remain 1441 00:58:41,829 --> 00:58:36,799 open to 1442 00:58:44,470 --> 00:58:41,839 that not paralleling a historical 1443 00:58:45,670 --> 00:58:44,480 figure in the way that in particular 1444 00:58:48,710 --> 00:58:45,680 christianity has 1445 00:58:51,589 --> 00:58:48,720 stitched that story together uh 1446 00:58:52,710 --> 00:58:51,599 and that there may be discoveries that 1447 00:58:55,030 --> 00:58:52,720 we need to make to 1448 00:58:56,630 --> 00:58:55,040 understand the connection between that 1449 00:58:58,630 --> 00:58:56,640 christ consciousness that we are a 1450 00:59:02,230 --> 00:58:58,640 co-creator of 1451 00:59:04,230 --> 00:59:02,240 and uh and the historical thing there so 1452 00:59:05,670 --> 00:59:04,240 any any thoughts on that before we leave 1453 00:59:07,670 --> 00:59:05,680 that and then do tell us when that book 1454 00:59:10,309 --> 00:59:07,680 will be out 1455 00:59:11,670 --> 00:59:10,319 well uh i'm shooting for january the 1456 00:59:15,510 --> 00:59:11,680 15th 1457 00:59:18,309 --> 00:59:15,520 i uh that right now is the pub date 1458 00:59:21,510 --> 00:59:18,319 uh but it might it might go a little 1459 00:59:24,390 --> 00:59:21,520 longer i'm not sure i'm still 1460 00:59:25,349 --> 00:59:24,400 fighting with myself about the title and 1461 00:59:27,109 --> 00:59:25,359 um 1462 00:59:28,549 --> 00:59:27,119 that's always hard because it has to 1463 00:59:30,230 --> 00:59:28,559 have the right title 1464 00:59:33,430 --> 00:59:30,240 the title has to tell the story of the 1465 00:59:36,470 --> 00:59:33,440 book in two or three words 1466 00:59:40,309 --> 00:59:36,480 and i've always been good at titles 1467 00:59:42,230 --> 00:59:40,319 but i always feel that i'm terribly bad 1468 00:59:45,030 --> 00:59:42,240 at titles when i'm working on one 1469 00:59:47,670 --> 00:59:45,040 so maybe a good title will come soon and 1470 00:59:51,589 --> 00:59:47,680 in which case we'll stay on track 1471 00:59:55,030 --> 00:59:51,599 uh now the 1472 00:59:58,829 --> 00:59:55,040 the question of what 1473 01:00:02,069 --> 00:59:58,839 initiation is is 1474 01:00:05,270 --> 01:00:02,079 central to an understanding 1475 01:00:08,710 --> 01:00:05,280 not only of our own experience now 1476 01:00:10,390 --> 01:00:08,720 because after all as annie 1477 01:00:12,630 --> 01:00:10,400 had a near-death experience and was 1478 01:00:15,109 --> 01:00:12,640 brought back by doctors 1479 01:00:16,309 --> 01:00:15,119 this is now commonplace this happens all 1480 01:00:19,990 --> 01:00:16,319 the time 1481 01:00:22,549 --> 01:00:20,000 uh this had to be induced 1482 01:00:23,190 --> 01:00:22,559 say in the mysteries in ancient times 1483 01:00:25,109 --> 01:00:23,200 you really 1484 01:00:26,710 --> 01:00:25,119 did have to be put in a position where 1485 01:00:28,870 --> 01:00:26,720 you were dying 1486 01:00:30,789 --> 01:00:28,880 and if you lived then you had been 1487 01:00:32,789 --> 01:00:30,799 initiated and if you died 1488 01:00:34,150 --> 01:00:32,799 then that turned out to have been a 1489 01:00:37,190 --> 01:00:34,160 mistake 1490 01:00:38,309 --> 01:00:37,200 uh there was one tribe and i forget 1491 01:00:41,990 --> 01:00:38,319 which one 1492 01:00:45,270 --> 01:00:42,000 where someone wanting to gain medicine 1493 01:00:49,430 --> 01:00:45,280 medicine would jump off a cliff 1494 01:00:50,549 --> 01:00:49,440 and if they lived they had medicine and 1495 01:00:55,430 --> 01:00:50,559 if they didn't 1496 01:01:02,470 --> 01:00:59,589 initiation is about getting past death 1497 01:01:03,910 --> 01:01:02,480 and it used to be very rare because you 1498 01:01:05,349 --> 01:01:03,920 know how many people are going to 1499 01:01:11,190 --> 01:01:05,359 actually 1500 01:01:13,750 --> 01:01:11,200 because medical science has made it 1501 01:01:16,549 --> 01:01:13,760 common this is an initiatory 1502 01:01:17,990 --> 01:01:16,559 culture now because we bring so many 1503 01:01:20,710 --> 01:01:18,000 people back from the death 1504 01:01:22,069 --> 01:01:20,720 from death most of them don't actually 1505 01:01:25,190 --> 01:01:22,079 remember anything 1506 01:01:27,589 --> 01:01:25,200 but some do and those are initiates 1507 01:01:29,270 --> 01:01:27,599 who do who do remember and whitley you 1508 01:01:30,630 --> 01:01:29,280 were drawing some parallels earlier in 1509 01:01:32,230 --> 01:01:30,640 the book 1510 01:01:34,470 --> 01:01:32,240 and i'd like you to kind of just string 1511 01:01:37,510 --> 01:01:34,480 that out as our time is running out here 1512 01:01:39,190 --> 01:01:37,520 between that and the increased contact 1513 01:01:40,470 --> 01:01:39,200 with the visitors because both our 1514 01:01:45,670 --> 01:01:40,480 initiatory 1515 01:01:47,349 --> 01:01:45,680 you know correlation causation kind of 1516 01:01:50,549 --> 01:01:47,359 thing going on there do they just happen 1517 01:01:52,630 --> 01:01:50,559 or are we misreading that 1518 01:01:54,549 --> 01:01:52,640 well no i don't think so there's a very 1519 01:01:57,270 --> 01:01:54,559 much of a correlation 1520 01:01:59,829 --> 01:01:57,280 the visitor experience is initiatory in 1521 01:02:01,829 --> 01:01:59,839 the sense that it overturns your life 1522 01:02:03,750 --> 01:02:01,839 and you have a choice either you're 1523 01:02:04,549 --> 01:02:03,760 going to sit there and say well god damn 1524 01:02:06,390 --> 01:02:04,559 them 1525 01:02:08,150 --> 01:02:06,400 or you're going to go for it and try to 1526 01:02:09,829 --> 01:02:08,160 figure out what the hell happened and 1527 01:02:11,270 --> 01:02:09,839 how you can make something out of it for 1528 01:02:14,630 --> 01:02:11,280 yourself 1529 01:02:17,349 --> 01:02:14,640 or you're just going to ignore it and 1530 01:02:18,470 --> 01:02:17,359 the memory will fade and fade into a 1531 01:02:21,510 --> 01:02:18,480 state of 1532 01:02:23,349 --> 01:02:21,520 sort of ptsd and there's a 1533 01:02:25,589 --> 01:02:23,359 i think the visitor experience is very 1534 01:02:28,630 --> 01:02:25,599 extensive and that there is a huge 1535 01:02:31,270 --> 01:02:28,640 subliminal level of ptsd in our 1536 01:02:33,109 --> 01:02:31,280 in our world and always has been and is 1537 01:02:34,789 --> 01:02:33,119 one of the reasons our history is so 1538 01:02:38,150 --> 01:02:34,799 violent 1539 01:02:40,870 --> 01:02:38,160 you know they're they're a big presence 1540 01:02:41,670 --> 01:02:40,880 it's not like a bunch of little aliens 1541 01:02:44,870 --> 01:02:41,680 running around 1542 01:02:47,990 --> 01:02:44,880 and trying to see what we're up to 1543 01:02:52,230 --> 01:02:48,000 this is part of the of the of 1544 01:02:55,750 --> 01:02:52,240 the blood of life it's that deep 1545 01:02:59,029 --> 01:02:55,760 and it emerges from time to time 1546 01:03:02,470 --> 01:02:59,039 in the into physical entity 1547 01:03:05,750 --> 01:03:02,480 that happened in the distant past uh 1548 01:03:07,910 --> 01:03:05,760 uh and you that's why you see these 1549 01:03:09,029 --> 01:03:07,920 images of entities that look something 1550 01:03:12,230 --> 01:03:09,039 like the grays 1551 01:03:13,029 --> 01:03:12,240 uh from from different periods and you 1552 01:03:17,349 --> 01:03:13,039 have 1553 01:03:20,870 --> 01:03:17,359 uh evidence in in uh the the um 1554 01:03:22,950 --> 01:03:20,880 in the in the literature of the past 1555 01:03:25,029 --> 01:03:22,960 that there were contacts of various 1556 01:03:26,710 --> 01:03:25,039 kinds i mean obviously ezekiel's wheel 1557 01:03:29,430 --> 01:03:26,720 and so forth 1558 01:03:30,870 --> 01:03:29,440 and it's happening again it's happening 1559 01:03:33,910 --> 01:03:30,880 now 1560 01:03:36,549 --> 01:03:33,920 it's a it's a it's a it's a re 1561 01:03:39,910 --> 01:03:36,559 another initiation i think we're going 1562 01:03:43,829 --> 01:03:39,920 into a period of tremendous upheaval 1563 01:03:45,270 --> 01:03:43,839 and that the soul the greater soul that 1564 01:03:48,309 --> 01:03:45,280 we are all part of 1565 01:03:48,630 --> 01:03:48,319 is preparing for it and that's why we 1566 01:03:50,870 --> 01:03:48,640 see 1567 01:03:52,309 --> 01:03:50,880 these things that we do that's why there 1568 01:03:54,549 --> 01:03:52,319 is a huge 1569 01:03:55,510 --> 01:03:54,559 wave of initiation across the whole 1570 01:04:01,190 --> 01:03:55,520 planet on 1571 01:04:07,750
