Swimming In Consciousness

without comments

Neil Kramer is an English writer and philosopher specializing in the fields of consciousness, metaphysics, shamanism, and ancient mystical disciplines. He steps off the edge in a wonderful wide-ranging interview exploring such mindful topics as:

  • What is syncromysticism and how does science view it compared to astrology?
    “The art of it is tracking relationships to see what it tells you about the universe and about yourself”
  • Is consciousness more than the reducible deterministic events of biochemistry?
  • Mind as a non-local awareness transceiver
  • What are consensus reality tunnels and who is creating yours?
  • Creativity and how we tap into something higher than ourselves
  • The electric chair of truth?
  • ‘As above, So below’ or ‘As within, So without’; the inseparability of imagination from reality
  • “What is put forth as reality is such a paltry, pathetic sliver of existence that it is a disgrace really that people accept that as the whole thing”
  • Earths’ stalled process of ascension and the majesty of what is possible
  • Refusing to live in-authentically – aka letting the universe see you
  • Understanding the construct and why we get a Deep Joy from De-Normalizing
  • How powerful conscious individuals can shape reality
  • Reading is hard? Not Neils essays: The Path of One and So What?
  • How to expand your capabilities to build a more harmonious environment where everyone prospers instead of the few?

The episode title comes from a riff off a Terrence McKenna quote that compares humans to fishes – only one of which is seemingly aware of the environment in which they exist (Check out The World and it’s Double in The Salon #295 and #296). Our conversation generally stepped off the edge towards the phiosophic side of the spectrum. To offer somewhat of a counterpoint to those moments where we were ragging on science for its’ inability to map the various complexities of consciousness, I wrap up the episode with some consciousness-related concepts from the history of scientific study in Larry Lowe’s great article Apollo 14 plus 41: The unexpected benefit of Edgar Mitchell and the preface from a book that has something of a syncromystic connection for Neil and I: An Experiment with Time by J.W. Dunne.

In discussion with associates last night, Lyndon LaRouche again reiterated the threat of a thermonuclear confrontation between the United States under a British directed Obama on the one side and Russia and China on the other, with a small handful of leading US military officials working around the clock to block it.

“Terence McKenna: Beyond 2012” – Part 3

without comments

Guest speaker: Lorenzo

Today’s podcast picks up with the third section of the workshop that Bruce Damer and I led on January 28th. This section features my second presentation of the day in which I try to live up to the advanced billing for the workshop which read: “Lorenzo will take us from 2013 into the emerging era of cyber-enhanced humans, immersed in a meme-space stranger than we can suppose.”

In the Occupy segment of the podcast I feature an interview with and a talk by Chris Hedges, including his criticism of the Black Bloc hooligans who are doing their best to destroy the Occupy Movement.

Massive Resignations Have Started

Here’s that broken piggy bank again!

Well, if you are slightly addicted to bank resignations, or if reading about them really “fire’s you up,” here’s one more link that lists most of the ones reported here, along with a few more. This article is also configured with more photos and documents. Good reading summary. You can “bank” on it (deep apologies for that pun)!

The Planes of Mind and Matter

without comments

KMO welcomes John Michael Greer back to the C-Realm to discuss maladaptive memes like the ones that drive speculative bubbles and predictions of the impending end of the world. Economists believe that abstractions, like money, can be manipulated in ways that can overcome the material limitations of the “real” world. John Michael says that to call this “magical thinking” is to do a serious disservice to operative mages and other practitioners of magical techniques. He suggests that we label the belief that we can derive something from nothing “economic thinking.” Music by the Transpersonals.

Silver Rarer Than Gold? Are Fulford & Wilcock Correct?

without comments

SGT talks to Bix Weir of RoadToRoota.com about about the $6 TRILLION in seized Bonds, the Ben Fulford and David Wilcock information and the mounting evidence that there are stores of gold on the planet which have never been revealed, making SILVER far more rare and precious than the yellow metal. In Part 2 we discuss the very real possibility of a Spring 2012 financial CRASH – and Ron Paul restoring our Constitutional form of government once he’s seated in the White House. Guess what?! The world is waking up and the idea of Liberty is more popular than ever.

Lisa Harrison Interviews A Mars Jumper

without comments

Lisa Harrison interview with Mars jumpers, Brett Stillings, who was a colleague of Andrew Basiago. Mars, teleportation, jump rooms, Barry Sortero (a/k/a-Barak Obama)—a team of ten children trained to travel to Mars…Remote viewer, Col. Ed Dames as trainer; a Mars colony with MILLIONS of settlers . . .

Brett Stillings finds it very difficult to discuss the topics covered in this interview and does his best to fight through the memory blocks and discomfort. He discusses his training during his youth by both his father and the Military in preparation for teleportation to Mars. His Mars training classmate Barry Soetoro (aka Barack Obama), his childhood friend Sam (a Grey ET) and more.

Mass Exodus of World Bankers . . . What’s Going On?

without comments

Rumours and conspiracy theories are flying all over the blogosphere tonight as it is becoming increasingly evident that there is a mass exodus amongst the ranks of the world’s leading bankers.

1) Feb. 6, 2012 / Bank of India CEO

Chaturvedi resigns2) Feb. 10, 2012 / Tamilnad Mercantile Bank

CEO resigns3) Feb. 13, 2012 / Kuwait Central Bank

CEO resigns4) Feb. 15, 2012 / World Bank CEO

Zoellick resigns5) Feb. 15, 2012 / Anz Bank CFO

Australia resigns6) Feb. 15, 2012 / Nicaraqua Central Bank Pres

Rosales resigns7) Feb. 15, 2012 / Royal Bank of Scotland Australian CEO

Stephen Williams resigns 8) Feb. 15, 2012 / Nova Kreditna Banka Maribo

CEO resigns9) Feb. 15, 2012 / Nova Ljubljanska Banka

CEO resigns10) Feb. 17, 2012 / Credit Suisse Chief 

Joseph Tan resigns11) Feb. 18, 2012 / German President Christian Ruff resigns

All of it comes as a stunning speech is made by

Sir James of Blackheath in the British House of Lords with allegations involving the stunning amount of $15 Trillion. Sir James described a set of mysterious transactions where over $15 trillion dollars was transferred via HSBC to RBS a few years back by one individual, who then proceeded to lose that money when RBS was taken over. There are also rumours Goldman Sachs CEO Blankenfein was asked to resign but refused. Is it all connected?  It’s worth keeping tabs on.

Mass Exodus of World Bankers… what’s going on?

Deadline: To The Committee of 300 – By The Gnostic “Illuminati” Faction

without comments

Ben provides a wealth of information related to several recent posts here (see this post, and that post). Continuing the theme of arrests, this report gives more detail into what is occurring behind the scenes. He states that even Silvio Berlusconi was arrested, but I have found no news sources that have reported that. [Someone found one: Silvio Berlusconi Trial: Prosecutors Seek 5-Year Term ]

Highlights

  • Prince Harry has been in touch with the group and has agreed to take over control of the British Royal family from Queen Elizabeth.
  • There are signs, such as the resignation of over a dozen senior bankers and the announcement of a $15 trillion fraud in the UK and a $6 trillion fraud in Italy, that these warnings have been taken seriously.
  • Ireland, Portugal, Greece and Spain have all told the banks they are not going to pay back any of their loans because the loans were made illegally… these countries are going to “default,” and for a change it will be the bankers and not the average citizens, who will pay the price.
  • The resignation of the heads of the World Bank, Credit Suisse, the Bank of India and “planned resignation” of the head of Goldman Sachs is just the beginning of a complete dismantling of the Khazarian banking monopoly.
  • The $6 trillion fraud case in Italy is noteworthy because it is the one of the first such cases major corporate propaganda media outlets have reported worldwide.
  • This means that people who were hitherto above the law and above institutions like the Vatican and the UN are no longer immune from arrest.
  • The announcement in the UK Upper House by Lord Blackheath that $15 trillion had been stolen from a member of the “Indian-Chinese” royal family by [FRB's] Bernanke… Geithner and “Yusuke Horiguchi”… is a another sign of big change.
  • …“Lord Sassoon.” The Sassoons are one of the families that profited from both the Opium wars and the colonization of Japan… He is expected to be arrested and questioned soon.
  • Particular attention is going to be directed at the Pharmaceutical and chemical companies as well as satanic corporations like Microsoft and Monsanto, according to the Pentagon sources.
  • Rahm Emmanuel, Karl Rove, Paul Wolfowitz, Donald Rumsfeld, J. Rockefeller, the Bushes and the various “Neocons,” are also due for arrest, according to multiple sources.
  • The top power brokers in Japan have decided that a revolution will take place… This will not be allowed to happen.
  • There is much more this writer knows but has been asked to remain silent about.

by Benjamin Fulford

A March 31st deadline has been delivered to the committee of 300 by the gnostic “illuminati” faction

The group that claims to have started the American, French and Russian revolutions state they have issued a March 31st deadline to the committee of 300, according to their spokesman “Alexander Romanoff.” In addition, Prince Harry has been in touch with the group and has agreed to take over control of the British Royal family from Queen Elizabeth. There are signs, such as the resignation of over a dozen senior bankers and the announcement of a $15 trillion fraud in the UK and a $6 trillion fraud in Italy, that these warnings have been taken seriously. The Italian case is especially noticeable because one of the people arrested was former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconni. In addition a meeting is scheduled this week between a White Dragon Society representative and a representatives of the dragon family in mainland Asia to discuss the creation of a meritocratically staffed economic planning agency.

It can also now be disclosed that Ireland, Portugal, Greece and Spain have all told the banks they are not going to pay back any of their loans because the loans were made illegally. This is one of the reasons why Moody’s downgraded 114 financial institutions including Citibank, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Deutschebank etc. These are the institutions that own the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Board is going to be shut down soon, according to Pentagon sources. In other words these countries are going to “default,” and for a change it will be the bankers and not the average citizens, who will pay the price.

The resignation of the heads of the World Bank, Credit Suisse, the Bank of India and “planned resignation” of the head of Goldman Sachs is just the beginning of a complete dismantling of the Khazarian banking monopoly. All money created through fraud is now going to be deleted from the global financial computer systems, according to officials involved in the take-down.
