I wasn't intending to post this one today.
I don't like posting too quickly and I'm studying the work of Rudolf Steiner to weigh his concept of cosmology against my own feather of truth (for those of you who do not know this is a reference to what most people know as the Egyptian Book of the Dead correctly translated as Coming Forth By Day. In the Hall of Ma'at there is a scene where the heart of the 'dead person' or the initiate is weighed against the Feather of Truth. If the heart was heavy then a demon called Ammit would devour it and the person would not reach the afterlife.) However, given that today is essentially 7/7/7 (if you ignore the 20 for the year) I figured that it would be fun. In my favorite book when it comes to the meaning of numbers, The Life You Were Born To Live by Dan Millman, 7 represents Trust and Openness. I think the nation as a whole, and the world, needs to work on their Trust and Openness. I don't mean necessarily trusting other human beings but to trust the Great Spirit. I am shocked by how many people are horrified that the FBI came out and said that Hilary was guilty of mishandling her emails but they are going to do nothing about it. Never has the contrast between the ordinary citizen and a government bureaucrat been so obvious. Even the Democrats that I know are not attempting to defend her but are just looking the other way from the decision (If I'm anything it's a Libertarian). Individuality I have already written the majority of my next post, Group Think in The United States, and I will be including classic psychological studies that indicate how we lose our self identity when in groups. I believe that this is one of the greatest challenges that we have in our current lifetime and the world. As certain people strive towards one united world- one group of people with no distinction from another- we might lose one of the most valuable aspects about being human...individuality. (Rudolf Steiner would call this the spirit of Ahriman, and strangely when I was looking for another song I found the one above entitled from a CD entitle Ahriman's Prophecy and I might get into the philosophical musings on that aspect of his work in a later post. I am, strangely, seeing ties between Steiners work and many others that I have read before although they did not cite him as a source.) Our differences is what makes us human and our ability to have differing opinions. To break away from the group, to express our individuality without letting bullies or those more forceful with their opinion sway us into their way of thinking is the highest level of "self" and "individualization" that we can achieve. For decades now this world has been forced to into group think on an epic scale. Once governments realized they could use psychological concepts and Group Think as a tool to force people into a cohesive group, extinguishing the citizens will to rebel, destroying all knowledge save what they wanted (starting with Rome) there was no going back. Currently, in the Western world it is Race that is being used to control people. Threatening people that have dissenting opinions that they will be called racist or xenophobic and be ostracized from the rest of society unless they vote or express their opinions in a certain way. In psychology, for example, I learned that it is society that dictates what is considered 'normal' behavior. People who do not go along with 'normal' behavior as dictated by society/agreed upon by most of society are considered to have psychological problems. To put it simply, anyone who is not normal is considered crazy. Never mind trying to define normal is not an easy task (it doesn't really exist) but we can all tell who is not going along with the program in a group because they stick out like a sore thumb. To go outside what is generally accepted by society as normal is to risk being called crazy or be seen as a trouble maker- a stigma that is not welcomed by many in society (and strangely the same as those carried by the Disciples of Christ in the bible). I will give anyone who seems to have a rational logical argument a chance. I have contemplated many alternate views of Christianity (Edgar Cacye's take on the life of Yeshua is very different for example and Rudolf Steiner's is even more so) and of world history in general (the theory regarding the Annunaki, for example). I have routinely switched the way I view the world from one narrow perception to another...reality, as I have said, is subjective and the more views that I perceive the more I become consciously aware of those differences...and the similarities. Classical Conspiracy Theorists The Classical Conspiracy Theorists that I'm including in today's post have been viewed in this way. They have brought forward ideas that were not spoken of before and presented information in a way that went against the grain of what society has been generally ignorant or never considered. They have been considered trouble makers. They could be seen as inciting those with paranoia to new heights of fantasy. Yet, we desperately need men like these who seek the Truth even if what they perceive is unpopular. In some ways, unlike the others I have presented, these are a bit more negative and less scientific. However, too often what they talk about is true. What they share are inconvenient truths for politicians and the people carefully arranging situations in their own favor while the rest of us slog out life going to a menial job to pay our mortgage. David Icke He is famous for his theory that Alien Lizards, called the Draco, who he says are the Annunaki, rule the world. He has done a lot of research, he's talked to a lot of different medicine men in countless cultures and tribes. He is definitely a student of the mysteries. His conclusions are a bit much for me, I don't agree with all of his conclusions and given that he really believes in the Draco Conspiracy I really don't feel comfortable. I believe that there is some merit in the theory that there is a shadowy group of people that want to rule the world from the shadows. So, I do believe that some of his theories and information are sound...but not necessarily the source as being not of this Earth. I'm including one very long video wand one very short one for him because I want to give you the flavor of his work. He is very interactive. He is always making little "podcasts" updating us on his perception of current events. I was delighted to see his reaction to "Brexit" so I'm including that and one of my favorite lectures he gave titled the Robots Rebellion which is two hours but very much worth your time.
Jordan Maxwell
The first person I ever heard talk about the Illumanti. I'm not sure there is as source before him that connected what appears to be a world wide group of Elite people who have controlled the Banks. He's the first one to talk about the Federal Bank, against the fact that we left the gold standard and why we left the gold standard, and various other issues that a very large percentage of people believe to be true. I would call him the classic "Conspiracy Theorist" who may be hailed in the future for being the start of the counter culture.
The Metaphysical Teachers
I wasn't going to include the next two thinkers to this blog. However, since this represents the first few people that peaked my interest I felt that I needed to include the two metaphysical thinkers that really peaked my interest back in the 1990's. Dan Millman and James Redfield are nearly forgotten. However, they wrote parables to capture certain spiritual concepts in their books that were fiction. Yet, they hinted at a mystery or hidden spiritual knowledge I found fascinating. I believe the time for parables is over, however, and it's time for a lot of these ideas to be expressed directly and in as simple way as possible so all people can understand them. Yet, both of these sources were what helped propel me into believing that there is knowledge hidden in old spiritual philosophies that I can apply to my life and the majority of which has been lost in the mainstream way of thinking and approaching life. These were some of the first people I encountered who tried to portray a bigger view of spirituality. James Redfield He wrote a fictional book called the Celestine Prophecy and numerous other books including the Tenth Insight. These books hinted at a spiritual approach to life that some people would call a hippy or 'tree hugger' approach. I found it fascinating that energy might travel from one person to another. His books were intriguing and became a New York times best seller and an under the radar movie. I haven't read his books in a very long time. I still have some of them on my book shelf but a lot of what he wrote ties in with what I call 'the Shift' and I will probably cover it a little bit more in that post. However, I am completely and utterly against the hive mind globalist future that Redfield suggests will be the culmination of this 'prophecy.'
Dan Millman
The first book that I read by him was The Way of the Peaceful Warrior. He explains later that it is a parable and fictional which really turned some people away from him. People want to believe in magic but what he has in his books aren't really 'magic' but very practical. I mentioned his book "The Life You Were Born To Live" in the start of this blog. I just like his philosophy and approach to life as a Peaceful Warrior which is very much influenced by Buddhist tradition.
Conclusion
These men were the first that I encountered who came out with an approach to viewing life differently than the majority of people that I knew. They challenge mainstream thinking in a lot of ways. Their approach of combining religions, perspectives and schools of wisdom for a unique approach to life really opened my eyes in a lot of ways. These are the people that over the years that I have followed. These are the ones I find to be the most sound of mind and make the most rational arguments and providing proof.. They have united the schools of Academia to create theories that take all of the information into consideration. Imagination and Inspiration has left Scientific Academia as they only reinforce their own ideas and ideas that are 'accepted'. These are the people who do not have to operate within those horrible limitations in thought. I will get into the state of Academia in the U.S. in a future post. I'm discovering interesting people all of the time to add to this list but these are the classic people that I can depend on. People who grew up listening to them and who are inspired by them are all over the place writing their own books. So this is just the basic list I have paid attention to over the years. Maybe the people listed here are are not entirely correct but they are attempting to look at the "Big Picture." For that they have my enduring respect. They might have some conflicting opinion, however, it seems that most of them have an overwhelming amount of information in common. I personally believe that we will find proof of Extraterrestrials in our past instead of in today's modern age. That, I think, will be less of a shock for people. As Michael Telligener pointed out, that Zechriah Stitchin explained and that was reinforced by Edgar Cacye is that the End of the Days isn't the destruction of the world...Instead things will be as they were in the beginning and in the beginning it seems we had contact with extraterrestrials or we were in a lot closer contact with the Source/Great Spirit/All That Is. Honorable Mentions I've left Daryl Anka (Bashar) out of this list because I think I have talked about that source enough. I've also left Steven Greer because his focus is mostly just on the modern ET phenomena. I respect him but he's a bit boring on the talk shows and I'm not sure I believe that the military technology is as advanced as he claims. I've also left out Gerald Clark, he's fascinating but a little too focused on when the Annunaki planet, Niburu might be coming into our solar system in the near future. With that focus in mind he tends to be a bit of a dooms day prophet. He's fascinating, his research is fascinating, but at the end of the day I can't say that he contributes anything new or unique. I've left Rudolf Steiner out as well. I am reading his books, but they have very obtuse language. He has a very strange slant on spirituality. He may have predicted in some ways, current times. He lived during the time of Edgar Cacye and there is a fascinating parallel in some ways. Once I have really studied the subject and his information I will make my choice as to whether his ideas have merit or not in my opinion. Georgio Tsoukalos- He became famous thanks to the show Ancient Aliens. He has a script that he sticks to on talk shows regarding his beleifs. They are fascinating. He his a student of Eric Von Daniken. The one thing he does contribute that I most admire is the fact that he doesn't believe that aliens built the megalithic structures around the world but that humans might have had help from extraterrestrials. His interview on the Joe Rogan Experience was probably the most entertaining.
