- 2:05It's good to see you, my friend. How is it going.
- 2:07Good to see you, my friend, writer. Good to be here,
- 2:10and thank you for the invite. Yes, I'm very much looking forward to
- 2:15the discussion here today. I'm a little under the weather, but we're gonna
- 2:19make it through here. Next up is author and producer of the show The
- 2:23Secret Teachings and my good friend Ryan Gable. Welcome back to the show,
- 2:29my friend. How's it going. It's going good, Writer, thanks for
- 2:31having me on the show. Yes, and so the other day, gentleman,
- 2:37we're just going to jump right into it. I was pondering on this
- 2:40concept and this idea of heaven, and to any analytical person you know,
- 2:47would do I thought to myself, where did this concept of heaven come from?
- 2:53Because it's always heavily referenced in Christianity, and I'm pretty su sure that's
- 3:00where everyone has heard of this concept of heaven from. But I knew that
- 3:05the oldest religion in the world is Hinduism, which dates back over five thousand
- 3:12years, and that Hindus believe in reincarnation and reincarnation based off of karma,
- 3:21so it couldn't have come from Hinduism. So the question that I guess that
- 3:28I opposed to both of you is did this concept of in afterlife or the
- 3:35concept of heaven come from Christianity or is there an older religion or an older
- 3:43teaching that dates back further than Christianity have this concept of in afterlife? And
- 3:53Wayne, if you want to start, yeah, I think it's solely a
- 3:58Christian theology. You know, prior to that, if you look at the
- 4:02Egyptians, they had their belief of a afterlife and the underworld. But the
- 4:10idea of heaven itself is a Christian concept because that's your reward or going to
- 4:18heaven. Are you're going to have eternal peace and whatever that is. Although
- 4:24I do find it interesting the Bible really doesn't talk a lot about heaven.
- 4:28Paul wrote about it, but in the Old Testament, the Hebrews did not
- 4:32believe in a heaven right. And it's interesting too because the Old Testament doesn't
- 4:41really even reference a or a house. So if they didn't believe in heaven
- 4:46or how then what exactly do they believe in? Ryan? What do you
- 4:54well? I agree with Wayne. First of all, I think it's primarily
- 4:57a Christian concept. But when I say it is a Christian concept, I
- 5:00think the question is what is it? Because everybody has their own interpretation of
- 5:05what heaven is, you know. And Waine's also right that you have the
- 5:10concept of the underworld, and you find that in Egypt famously, but you
- 5:14also find that in meso America, Zibalba, you find that in Japan.
- 5:18I like to talk about the East because that's not very well known about in
- 5:21the West. The land of Yomi in Japan was the land of the underworld,
- 5:27and very I had very similar stories to the Egyptians and to the meso
- 5:30Americans as well. So from meso America all the way to the Land of
- 5:34the Rising Sun. You have this underworld concept, which I suppose you could,
- 5:40depending on how you interpret it, interpret it as both a heaven or
- 5:43a hell like state, because you went through the underworld in order to either
- 5:46be reborn as a star or to transcend and maybe to be reborn again into
- 5:53a physical body, which was a was a. I think that was an
- 5:56original tenet of Christianity, was reincarnation. So I agree with Wayne in those
- 6:00ways, and just to expand a little bit, that's that's my thoughts.
- 6:03But I do want to add one more thing that in the Hindu belief system,
- 6:08there's a place or I guess a state of being called and I don't
- 6:12speak Sanskrit, but it's something to the pronunciation of zivarga zivarga s v A
- 6:17r g a, and that's like the seventh heaven or they called the Lopez,
- 6:24which is like a plane or a state of being, which is also
- 6:28similar in the in the Kabbala with Kether the crown, and it's also something
- 6:32that you find with the seven classical planets, and you find that with the
- 6:38seven what they call the seven Garments of Ishtar, and also the seven garments
- 6:44of isanagi in Japan. So these are concepts that are universal, and those
- 6:49I guess those are my opening thoughts on your question. Isn't there a trinity
- 6:56of the Kabbala that has Kathar in A, the Cathar, Chokma and Bana.
- 7:01Isn't that the trinity of the Kabbala? Oh? Yes, yes,
- 7:06for a second, I thought you were saying something else. I believe off
- 7:10the top of my head, I think, and that's the same with uh
- 7:13Barahma. And yeah, yeah, so that's the Shiva. In Shiva the
- 7:18destroyer, but the destroyer is also the allows for new things to be born
- 7:23in birth, so it's like a cyclical necessary evil. But yeah, that's
- 7:27in Hinduism, it's all over the world, it's in us, like you
- 7:30know, birth, life and death, et cetera. Yeah, it's really
- 7:34interesting in this this concept of heaven and hell in the Old Testament. Nowhere
- 7:43in the Old Testament doesn't say that when you die you go to heaven or
- 7:48hell. So if there wasn't a concept of heaven and how for the Old
- 7:55Testament people, then that means that heaven and hell is a relatively new concept.
- 8:03Would you agree with that? Wien. Yeah, it's kind of like
- 8:05the do you have a soul or do you have a spirit? Do you
- 8:07have a spirit and a soul? And when I think of heaven, of
- 8:13course, in Bible School, you know, we were Paul wrote about it.
- 8:16He said there were seven levels of heaven marrying much around the world,
- 8:22Ryan, as you were pointing out. And the thing that I think about
- 8:28heaven is, well, what is the purpose of heaven? I mean,
- 8:31what does it? Sir? Hell is the concept that we had from Dante,
- 8:37and the Church grabbed a hold of that because that was the perfect control
- 8:41that they needed to keep basically the peasants in line. Yeah. Hodgemunch says
- 8:50here that no hell mentioned in the Old Testament. Well, I mean it's
- 8:54kind of referred to what is that word? There's she all? Yeah,
- 9:01it's like referred to as the pit. I believe so kind of yes,
- 9:07depending on it was the twelfth gate in the city of Jerusalem was the pit
- 9:13Guyana, and it's where they took all the refuge of the city and that's
- 9:16where it was burnt, and it burned all the time. Do you know
- 9:20what side of the city that was on was that west? I believe it
- 9:22was the land of death where Ro's sunbat would crash each night. Mm hmm.
- 9:28Yeah. I think every culture has that too. I think, I
- 9:37mean from the Egyptians famously, they have the land in the West, but
- 9:39I was even I think it's in Japan too. Japan has this legend about
- 9:43a mystical island that in the Tibetan Book and the Dead as well. Oh
- 9:48it is. I didn't know that. Yes, it's it's always in the
- 9:50west, but that's because that's where the sun dies each night and becomes the
- 9:54black Sun, you know. I think that the question that you're asking writer
- 10:00can be looked at from more of a psychological point of view, and based
- 10:03on what Wayne is saying, I think we should expand on Dante's version of
- 10:07Hell because Dante's version of Hell is quite contradictory to the Church's version of Hell.
- 10:13Dante's depiction and you could look this up if you wanted to show an
- 10:18image of it, look up ice Palace Hell. Dante. Dante described,
- 10:22and I think it was thirty three or thirty four of his story, that
- 10:30Hell is actually an ice palace and that the devil or this devilish character is
- 10:35actually physically encased in ice. So I've always looked at Hell as being sort
- 10:39of like and I wrote this in my Occult book. I've always looked at
- 10:43Hell as being kind of a place where it's a state of mind, like
- 10:48when you're betrayed or when you don't feel loved, you feel really cold,
- 10:52you feel really alone, you feel really cold. But when you feel loved,
- 10:56when you feel appreciated, you feel really warm, you can feel the
- 10:58light. That's kind of how heaven would be described. And then likewise,
- 11:03purgatory is the state between those two states of awareness where you're really uncertain whether
- 11:11maybe you're in a situation where you haven't made up your mind about something.
- 11:13You're kind of in a state between feeling warm and filling cold. That would
- 11:18be another, I think interpretation of it. Yeah, they're the one in
- 11:22the middle there that you had that was the ice palace of Hell. Yeah,
- 11:28it's interesting that you bring up this, this purgatory idea, because from
- 11:35my understanding, that is what the Old Testament people believed happened when you died.
- 11:43They believed in purgatory with aud it Abraham's side or Abraham's bosom, which
- 11:52is referenced in Luke sixteen twenty two. I believe and God. Now,
- 12:00I was going to say, if you look in what is it in the
- 12:03Book of Samuel Saul King Saul when he called upon the Witch of Endoor,
- 12:07and it's one of the few references in the Old Testament that we know that
- 12:13there is this afterlife. It also shows that this witch had the ability to
- 12:18communicate to the dead. And what the ancient prophet told Saul was that why
- 12:24did you disturb me? And apparently it's a very grayish place. It's apparently
- 12:31a place where the spirits or the soul's rest. So it's very interesting when
- 12:35you take that concept and you try to play it into the heaven and hal
- 12:39role, it doesn't jib. Yeah. In purgatory, the original word is
- 12:46Latin pergatorious, and it means the translation in Latin is horrifying. So when
- 12:52you apply the idea of purgatory to the Gates of Ishtar, or the Descent
- 12:58of Enon, or the story of Isanagi going into the underworld to rescue his
- 13:03wife is a nami in Japan. When he comes out of the underworld unclean,
- 13:09he goes to a river and he strips off all of his garments and
- 13:13purifies himself in the river, and when he does that, he then gives
- 13:18birth to the Sun goddess am A Tanasu. So from the underworld or what
- 13:22we might call hell, to the purifying of the river and losing the garments,
- 13:28which is just like Ishtarananana to the birth of the Sun goddess. You
- 13:33have this transition hell, purgatory heaven in a sense in that old Japanese story,
- 13:39and that's essentially what purgatory is. It's the purifying of the soul.
- 13:43I believe it was meister Eckhart, that German mystic, who said that if
- 13:48we learn to we learned to understand that this is a paraphrase, we learn
- 13:52to understand that angels and demons kind of play the same part. That demons
- 13:56feed off of the negative things that we feel and the wightfull emotions like in
- 14:01the Hall of Judgment in Egypt that would be consumed by the great beast.
- 14:07So those demons actually feed off those things, and they're doing the work of
- 14:11the angels, if you will, because in order to reunite or to as
- 14:15sind if you will, that's a really bad word to use nowadays, but
- 14:18to ascend through the spheres of consciousness. One has to be purified, which
- 14:22is what purgatory is. It's the state between in a sense, between life
- 14:26and eternal life in the spirit realm. Does that make sense? It does.
- 14:31And I want to bring up this verse really quickly because I think that
- 14:37it is very important, which is Luke sixteen twenty two. And here it
- 14:43is. It says the poor man died and was carried by the angels to
- 14:46Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried and in hades,
- 14:54being in torment, and lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham far off and
- 15:00Lazarus in his bosom. And this verse is very interesting because it's where the
- 15:07whole idea and the whole thought of what hell is really comes from. And
- 15:13how many times have we heard people talk about, oh, well, when
- 15:16you go to hell, you'll be able to see God but not be able
- 15:20to do anything about it. That comes from this verse. And what I
- 15:24find interesting on this verse is that, hey, if you really study the
- 15:30scriptures, is that it's mixing two different theologies here. It's robbing from the
- 15:37Hebrew culture, because I contend Christianity has no God. You can't tell me
- 15:41who the Christian God is. But in here Jesus would have never said this.
- 15:48Jesus was a rabbi, he would not have had the concept of a
- 15:52hell. He would have understood Abraham. And you know, the story goes
- 15:58on that there's this great chasm between Abraham and the rich man. Las or
- 16:03something is the other story. So it's very interesting how the mind trap starts
- 16:08right here. From the get go two different theologies, one that was old,
- 16:12one was being invented. It's also interesting here the distinction between the poor
- 16:19man and the rich man. It's almost like, if you're poor, then
- 16:23you're going to be saved. If you're rich, you're going to torment.
- 16:30You know what I think you can relate that to what Luke or whoever wrote
- 16:34this book is saying, is they're basically describing in different terms the Egyptian Hall
- 16:40of judgment. In the Hall of judgment, you had the heart and you
- 16:42have the feather that were weighed. The feather was the soul. The heart
- 16:45was the physical aspects of life. And if your heart was heavy or weightful
- 16:51with sin or with regret or with desire, the beast would eat it and
- 16:56you were not able to go into the next stage of the after life,
- 17:00so that that would be a man who is poor in a sense, and
- 17:03the man who is rich has no physical possessions, but is rich in spirit.
- 17:07The feather therefore is more weightful than the heart, and then you're able
- 17:11to transcend. I think that's what that's saying. I think so too.
- 17:15But it's just interesting in the words that they use to describe it. I
- 17:21think it's definitely a metaphor, but it's just interesting the poor, the poor
- 17:26and the rich, because it's something that's been you know, propagated through Christianity
- 17:33that if you have a lot of possessions, and you know, God isn't
- 17:41really favoring you if you if you have a lot of things, if you
- 17:45have a lot of material possessions, and that's of the devil, right.
- 17:51It's almost it's almost Buddhist in a way. And I think that people have
- 17:56also politicized that because a lot of people take the Bible and say that,
- 18:00because they say the Book of Luke says something to that effect. They believe
- 18:03it's like an anti capitalist message, which is in the same way that you
- 18:07can interpret the Bible and you can interpret you know, you can interpret a
- 18:11simple verse like that to mean some political thing. You could interpret it to
- 18:17mean that I have to be poor in order to go to heaven. You
- 18:18can interpret it as as I do. I interpret it as being part of
- 18:22the ancient mystery tradition. But the Egyptians taught in the Underworld story. You
- 18:29can interpret it and quite a few different ways. I don't think it's literal,
- 18:33to put it bluntly, I don't think it's literal. You know what's
- 18:37really interesting to this discussion is that I go back to the very beginning.
- 18:44So what came first? Was it the creation of this heaven hell? Death?
- 18:49Or was it live? Because if you have the construct that there was
- 18:53a heaven in Hell, who populated it? How did it start? How
- 18:59did it begin? And if you look at the whole concept of Hell of
- 19:03Satan Lucifer, then Hell has to be run by a woman, because a
- 19:08woman would be the direct antithesis of the Hebrew god Yahweh, the Eloween.
- 19:17So the whole concept of Hell, when you begin to examine it, begins
- 19:21to crumble very quickly because what it's saying is that Hell is run by women,
- 19:26and because they would be the only ones that would accept God's rejects,
- 19:30and the mother of all demons is a well in the Jewish vision, is
- 19:34Lilith or Lam Yeah, yeah, so she was the mother of all demons.
- 19:40You know, she just didn't fit into the Catholic narrative. But I
- 19:41think in the very beginning, when they were still trying to figure out who
- 19:45the God of Christianity is, you know, I think in one of the
- 19:51versions it may have been a woman, but it still gets back to the
- 19:53whole idea. So what was the purpose of this creation? And if man
- 19:59came in after the scene, then it's a setup. It's a complete setup.
- 20:07You know that if you take the idea of the queen of the queen
- 20:11of the underworld, which is something that you find in Greece very famously with
- 20:17Persephone or Proserpina in Rome, and that's a concept you also find again in
- 20:22mess America, you find in Japan with Isanami, the queen of the underworld,
- 20:27or the Scandinavians actually called her. Funny enough, the Scandinavian name for
- 20:32the underworld goddess was hell h e l translated to how we would pronounce it
- 20:37today. Hell. So the goddess or the queen of the underworld. That
- 20:41was always a queen, it was always a woman, And usually that story
- 20:47is meant to be interpreted as an allegory and a metaphor for nature. So
- 20:52I'm sure that you guys both know this. But like Persephone is probably the
- 20:56most famous story. When she goes into the underworld, she's this young,
- 20:59beautiful woman, so she represents spring in summertime. She's defiled by the fall,
- 21:04which is represented by Hades, who rides the black Horse that is the
- 21:08horse of the end of the year, the coming of the lifting of the
- 21:12veil, the apocalypse, the unveiling, and then the Pale Horse, which
- 21:17is the death of winter. So you have this beautiful young woman of spring
- 21:19and summer. She's kidnapped and raped and abused by Hades with the black horse,
- 21:25who actually carries scales in some of the stories, and he takes her
- 21:27to the underworld. And when she goes to the underworld, Earth essentially dies.
- 21:33And because Demeter, her mother, is very saddened that her daughter has
- 21:37been kidnapped and raped and abused, so she lets the crops die. And
- 21:41Zeus gets upset in the story because all mankind is going to die without food,
- 21:47without light, so eventually Zeus convinces her to and convinces Hades to allow
- 21:52Persephone to go. The story goes that she eats food in the underworld,
- 21:56which you see that movie Man's Labyrinth when Ophelia's turned out to eat the food
- 22:03and the pale Man's layer. That's purely Greek and Roman and other mythologies.
- 22:07So she eats a pomegranate seed, which often is also correlated to the apple
- 22:11and the garden of Eden. And when she eats the pomegranate seed, I
- 22:15think she eats a third or something like that of the pomegranate. So she
- 22:19has to stay in the underworld that portion of the year. So she has
- 22:23to stay there roughly through the fall in the winter, and then when she
- 22:26comes back to life in the spring, everything blooms again because her beauty comes
- 22:30back to the world. So although she is essentially the queen of the underworld,
- 22:36she's also the queen of regeneration and rebirth, which is something we find
- 22:41in Egypt, where Queen Isis has both white veils of purity where we get
- 22:47the wedding veil from in part, and also black veils of mourning where we
- 22:51get the story of the cinders on her face. The Cinderella story, she's
- 22:55searching for her prince Charming. So she's both a white and black goddess or
- 23:00queen in the same way that I think it's the Zohar. You have the
- 23:03black and white god, and there's an agricultural aspected element to all of this
- 23:07that's very important, I think to the discussion of heaven and hell. It
- 23:12odd that the pomegranate had also adorned the doors to the Holy of the Holies,
- 23:18the temple. Mm hmm, well my still on, Yeah, okay,
- 23:27I'm good. It's interesting when we talk about, you know, these
- 23:32people going into hell because you know who else descended into hell. Jesus Christ
- 23:41whenever he died, he descended into hell for three days and then resurrected and
- 23:51then ascended into heaven. Which people really leave that part of the story out
- 23:56for some reason. Wait a minute. He was crucified on a Friday and
- 24:00raised on a Sunday morning. That ain't three days. I'm just I'm just
- 24:07telling what the book said. I mean, you know, there ain't no
- 24:10three days there. Well, it was on maybe on the Thursday, Fridays,
- 24:14the day Saturdays, on the third day I guess it can't be no
- 24:18good Maybe good Thursday. I don't know, but they didn't sell enough fish,
- 24:22so I mean, maybe that's why. I don't know. I've actually
- 24:25heard some scholars suggest that that a lot of the stuff in the Bible fish
- 24:29and wine is really just a bunch of marketing. Well, what was it,
- 24:33Pope? Was it? Was it Pope Pious the Third who said,
- 24:37Oh, how we've deceived the people in this this belief of Jesus that never
- 24:41you know existed. So and today it's odd because it influences all of our
- 24:48culture. We're talking about heaven and Hell. It's the great fear. Hollywood
- 24:52has made billions on, you know, personifying this place called Hell. Yes,
- 24:57as a philosopher, I look at Hell is probably the place where i'd
- 25:02want to be, because I'd be very uncomfortable in heaven because I'm the problem
- 25:06child. I'm the person that when you see me, I'm someone said the
- 25:11great question mark, you know, I guess, yeah, I'm trying to
- 25:19look for this verse really quickly. I think it's Ephesians four nine that says
- 25:26Jesus descended into the lower parts of the earth. Well, I mean the
- 25:33whole Jesus story. A lot of people say, well, it's just sun
- 25:37worship. Well, in a sense, it is, but it's a little
- 25:40more complex than that. It's really kind of a mixture of both agricultural analogies,
- 25:45metaphors, and allegories, Like there's a whole bunch of stuff that gets
- 25:49put into the story that becomes the Jesus descending into the hell story or the
- 25:56verse that you're looking for. In the same way that when Jesus transcends and
- 25:59goes up into Heaven, that is a story that's also told all throughout the
- 26:02world in various different forms. So really, the Jesus story isn't simplified in
- 26:07my view as just oh, it's just sun worship. Now, it's far
- 26:11more than that. It's basically a mixture of what it seems like virtually every
- 26:17major culture on this planet. It's putting all this together. And I think
- 26:22that the Church, and I think most people understand this and know this already,
- 26:25that the Church was trying to take these ancient cult beliefs and basically make
- 26:30it easier for the people to accept this new state sponsored religion by bringing those
- 26:37people that already have these beliefs into the Christian narrative because it was so similar
- 26:41to what they already believed, they just created a new version of it.
- 26:45Whether that's the point out that when Christianity came about, and I always figure
- 26:51about three seventy five four five it was organized, that was also the beginning
- 26:56of the Dark Ages, and ever since this religion has populated through the world,
- 27:02it has brought the Dark Ages with it. I mean, the Batylonian
- 27:07Tulmult says that the Goam are the slaves of the Jews, and that Christianity
- 27:14is the curse of the Jews upon the Goum, because the Hebrew God will
- 27:18never allow a gentile in his presence right the story, I mean, that's
- 27:26what it says. And so you've got this false narrative where today in the
- 27:30Western world we're convinced that this story actually is true, but actually we all
- 27:37know deep down that it most likely is not so anyway, Which of course
- 27:41doesn't mean that many of the motifs and the principles and whatnot that you find
- 27:45in Christianity aren't things that you should abide by or better ways to live your
- 27:51life. Like Christian principles, it's probably a pretty good way to live objectively
- 27:56speaking, But that doesn't mean that Wane's not right, which I agree with
- 28:00him that it's and I think I mean the Muslims in the Jews, that's
- 28:03one thing they agree on, that Jesus was not the son of God.
- 28:07That was a blasphemous thing to tell me that space. If you read the
- 28:11talent, it says, I'm sure Wayne knows this. It says that anybody
- 28:14who well, they refer to anybody who distresses Israel as being the chief,
- 28:19which is a word that was used to describe basically detractors of the Rabbis and
- 28:26detractors of the of the I guess the elites in the rabbinical class. And
- 28:33they said that anybody who does that, which included Jesus, who they said
- 28:36was a wicked sorcerer from who learned magic in Egypt, who claimed blasphemously to
- 28:41be the son of God, that he would burn eternally an excrement. I
- 28:45think it's like track fifty seven A or fifty seven B of the tal Me.
- 28:48Actually, people say that doesn't say that. No, it does say
- 28:52that. You can just look up. I just taught on this a couple
- 28:56of weeks ago. So it's very Rabbi Fuchs when I was looking to convert
- 29:00to Judaism after our third meeting, he just looked at me and he says,
- 29:06do the Jews a favor. Don't convert because their opinion of the Twelve
- 29:11Apostles that they were the twelve devils, the twelve rebels that destroyed Jerusalem.
- 29:18And that's how the Jewish people view Christianity. It was those twelve so called
- 29:22Apostles that were the ones then the blame for bringing down their their whole society.
- 29:30Yeah, I think it's just a couple tracts or versus. After the
- 29:33THECES comment, where is this guy named Akellos? I don't know how to
- 29:38pronounce the name? You know that? Is it on Kelos? You know
- 29:41that name? You're close guy, I have no on Kellos something like that.
- 29:45I'd be speaking in tongues, you know, That's what it feels like.
- 29:49So he wants to convert to Judaism, and he goes to some of
- 29:53the higher ups and asks and they and he basically the story goes, he
- 29:57goes and actually reforms necromancy. It literally literally says this in the teal mute.
- 30:06He performs necromancy to resurrect Jesus from hell or from the dead, and
- 30:11then he asks Jesus, what do you make of these Jews, Like that's
- 30:15what he's asking. And Jesus says, well, he said you should not
- 30:18seek their misfortune, but you should seek their guidance and protection like you.
- 30:22Basically you should convert to Judaism, I think is essentially what Jesus tells him.
- 30:27And the guy says, okay, well what if I don't, what
- 30:30if I choose to go my own way? And he says, well,
- 30:32then you will be punished the way that I was punished. And he says,
- 30:34well, how was how were you punished? And he says, you
- 30:37will burn eternally in boiling excrement if you do something that the Jews don't like.
- 30:44So I find it really ironic. And I know that's one section of
- 30:47the Talmut. It's very large, and you can take things out of context.
- 30:49But and the same with the Bible or the Koran. But you know,
- 30:52Christians and Muslims believe a lot of the same things, and yet the
- 30:56media and our society have them neck to necking each other's heads off all the
- 31:00time. And there's extremist groups of course, in both, but for the
- 31:04Christians to be so held bent no pun intended on supporting the Jews and supporting
- 31:11Israel, when the Jews on average don't really support Christians and actually see the
- 31:15Christians as blasphemos themselves and say, actually, all the in the tell me
- 31:19this says, all the followers of Jesus will be punished in that way.
- 31:23It's weird because the Muslims believe virtually what the Christians believe, with the exception
- 31:29that Jesus is the son of God. I've always said Christians have far more
- 31:32in common with Muhammad and Allah and Muslims than they do with the Jews.
- 31:36I'd agree with that. Doctor Charles, in his book of Historical Jesus,
- 31:40pointed out that he felt that it was the Vatican in eight eight hundred right
- 31:47around there that they were the ones that also helped start the Islamic religion.
- 31:55Interesting I ever heard that. I'll check and after the show, I'll send
- 31:59you the book. And the reference of it was that what because it allowed
- 32:04Rome to have the perfect corner on the market. Rome took the umbrella of
- 32:09the Abrahamic Covenant as its own, so basically like almost like offering like a
- 32:16one company that makes two or three different products, but they own them all.
- 32:20It's SELFI national we serve everybody. Y Coca pepsi is basically what it
- 32:28is. Here's this verse, this verse right here Ephesians for nine through ten.
- 32:36Now that he ascended, but what is it but that he also descended
- 32:40into the lower parts of the earth. He then is the seam as the
- 32:45one that uscended up far above the all heavens, that he might find or
- 32:52that he might fill all things. So, and I think that this is
- 32:58what the the Old Testament people kind of believed that whenever Jesus was crucified and
- 33:07died, then he freed the souls from hell. That's why you went to
- 33:13He descended into hell, and then that made it to where people can enter
- 33:17into haven. I think what Jesus in my view, I think Jesus quote
- 33:28unquote whatever you define that name, because it's a title and it's more,
- 33:32it's not There was no Jesus in the Hebrew or even in the Greek.
- 33:37It was more like Jesus. It was more like Zeus and translated from Hebrew
- 33:42to yeah, Jeseus right from Hebrew to Greek. So there was no Jesus,
- 33:49but there might have been many people that played a part like Jesus.
- 33:52In fact, there certainly were because the Romans actually, well they usually did.
- 33:57From what I understand, the Romans didn't crucify people usually for religious crimes.
- 34:01They did for other crimes, so it was kind of uncommon. I
- 34:05don't know how true that is. I didn't live in ancient Rome, so
- 34:07I don't know, but from what I understand, they didn't really usually crucifiable
- 34:12for religious crimes, but there were people that certainly committed religious crimes. Whoever
- 34:16this Jesus character was, or many Jesus characters, because there are probably many
- 34:22of them that whatever they had done, they certainly had angered the Roman establishment,
- 34:27the Roman authority. They could have been more like political activists. I
- 34:30mean, if you were teaching that Rome wasn't the main authority in the land,
- 34:37I mean, that's enough to get you killed. Probably It's same as
- 34:39it would be today if you were in China or North Korea. It's a
- 34:43very similar kind of a thing. So I do I think what Jesus was
- 34:46teaching, in my view, or at least conceptually, what we can kind
- 34:50of pull out of the Jesus story is he's teaching the mystery religions, because
- 34:54when he raises Lazarus from the dead, that's the same story that we read
- 34:59about the Egyptian temples and pyramids. It's raising someone physically from the dead,
- 35:05but they're not physically dead. They call it living resurrection. And so Jesus
- 35:08is showing you to go to Hell and to come back. It's really in
- 35:13psychological terms, or even in literature terms, it's kind of like the poems
- 35:17and the stories. I think they were like sixteenth century. I forget who
- 35:21wrote them and came up with the idea of the dark Knight of the soul.
- 35:23You go into yourself, and that's I think what the Jesus story is
- 35:27all about, going into Hell, going into yourself, dealing with your demons,
- 35:31killing the dragon, slaughtering the beast, the animal sacrifice, and then
- 35:37transcending out of that and recognizing you're part of a much larger whole ide heaven.
- 35:40And I think that's what the Jesus story is actually saying. And then
- 35:45you have to weigh that with history. I mean, when I finally realized
- 35:50that the Jesus story was just that it's a story, because history shows when
- 35:57the real character in the New Testament, and the first four gospels are actually
- 36:01the exploits of Vespasian. Now Vespasian was real, we know what he looks
- 36:07like. We have a bust of them. And where the crucifixion story came
- 36:12from was because of his son Titus, when he basically held siege to Jerusalem
- 36:19and allowed the Jews for the first time within years to come in worship on
- 36:23the high Holy days, and then Titus sealed them in and basically it was
- 36:30two million people that were slaughtered. That was the fall of Jerusalem. And
- 36:35it was right after that that Titus went into the temple and took out the
- 36:39holy relics of the Hebrew worship. The three people that Titus did in fact
- 36:45crucify on the hill, that story is actually true. But they were as
- 36:50you pointed out, and they were actually rebels. They were the ones that
- 36:54actually broke the law according to Roman law. But we don't hear that in
- 37:00the New Testament. You don't hear the story of Titus. And again,
- 37:06the idea that we read these gospels, the lunacy of this is is that
- 37:10you really think a human being could sit down twenty years later and write a
- 37:15story per batum. I mean, we know that's impossible unless it was channeling.
- 37:23Now maybe he was in fact channeling something. But that's the problem that
- 37:28I see that we face here in the West. We're still hung by this
- 37:31god spell that still hangs over our whole culture, particularly now that it's spread
- 37:37worldwide. But that's just my opinion. A couple interesting things to what you
- 37:43said. First of all, a lot of the way that we interpret heaven,
- 37:46hell, purgatory, God, the devil and all that is cultural.
- 37:52So like, for example, in Japan, although a lot of Japanese now
- 37:55have transitioned to become Christian because I think they love Western ideas, blue genes
- 38:01and rock music, rockkup music and all that, they also like Christianity.
- 38:06But in traditional Japanese belief, which is mostly from Taoism, Confucianism, and
- 38:14Hinduism originally Buddhism and Hinduism at its core, they practice what you might know
- 38:20I practice as Shintoism, and Shintoism is totally different than any other thing I've
- 38:24ever read in my life about religion or any kind of theology. They actually
- 38:29see life not to be suffering. They see life as a positive, wonderful
- 38:32thing, and that the only time life becomes uncomfortable and painful is when you
- 38:38fail to fulfill your duties, honor your ancestors, do what you need to
- 38:43do for your community. So and that really speaks to the cultural essence of
- 38:47what the Japanese are. I'm not saying all Japanese, but traditionally so in
- 38:52the West, we usually see the world in a totally different way, just
- 38:57like other Eastern countries do. It's not right or wrong, but the culture
- 39:00that we live in, is my point, can radically transform our perceptions of
- 39:06what's the meaning of life, what's the point of of living and dying,
- 39:10what happens after we die, just from a cultural standpoint, just from a
- 39:15cultural point of view, that can that can drastically change the way that we
- 39:19look at the world. And then when you try like the Romans, clearly
- 39:22that when you try to create something like I had a thought that came to
- 39:29my head a moment ago when Wayne was talking. I was think, I
- 39:31don't know how again, I don't know how true this is. I didn't
- 39:34live in ancient Rome, but from what I've read, I understand that the
- 39:37Romans, depending on the time period, because Rome was vast in terms of
- 39:40how much power and how well they had power for the Romans, like at
- 39:45certain points didn't actually prosecute people for religious crimes, and the scene. You
- 39:51really it's kind of like Siria. Today. I met some people from Syria.
- 39:52They said, actually, if you're a if you're in Syria, a
- 39:55lot of places in Syria, you can be a Jew, you can be
- 39:58a Christian, you can be a Muslim. There's no contrary to or our
- 40:00media says. I was told that by multiple people from Syria. It's kind
- 40:05of the impression I got of like ancient Roman at certain points, the Romans
- 40:07are actually very accepting. In fact, Manly Hall, my favorite author all
- 40:12time, he said he said that it was the Christians that originally burned Rome
- 40:15and that the Romans finally had enough of Christianity, but enough people in power
- 40:20thought hey, this is a really good cult. We could use this,
- 40:23and so they adopted it. But that the Romans originally they were like this
- 40:28is Christians are fine, you can be here. It was the Christians that
- 40:30pushed which it's really bad if you pushed the Romans to do that. The
- 40:35Romans were like, these people are insane. So but we could use them.
- 40:38It's kind of the idea that Manly Hall played with. He wrote a
- 40:40book called How to Understand Your Bible, which is really good, and he
- 40:45talks about that in that book. He pointed out as well as that isn't
- 40:49it odd? The one Roman who basically invented and wrote Christianity New Testament theology
- 40:57was Paul. Paul's family supplied the Roman legions with tents and other utensils,
- 41:05made them what would be comparative today to billionaires. The story of Paul being
- 41:10beheaded in Rome is actually false because there is, in fact the twenty ninth
- 41:15chapter of the Book of Acts where Paul went and settled up in Germany,
- 41:21and in fact, in the twenty ninth chapter of the Book of Acts it
- 41:23says that he actually killed Pilot. So it's very interesting when you start dissecting
- 41:30all this to see how it completely as you said, right, it fashions
- 41:36our culture, our society, our laws, our governments. Another example of
- 41:42that would be if you looked at like the Scandinavian countries, they're depictions of
- 41:46Hell and their depictions of the end of the world. You know, these
- 41:51are places that are famously like the Vikings came to places that are famously like
- 41:55cold and hellish, like unlike you know where I'm from, Florida. You
- 42:00know, we if these ideas develop today, you know, my idea of
- 42:04heaven or hell might be different coming from Saint Pete Beach, Florida than someone
- 42:07who lives up in like Manitoba, Canada, you know, because of the
- 42:12just the climate alone can change our views on heaven and hell, can change
- 42:15our views on what it means to live and to die. I think that's
- 42:21a really important ask, just to kind of play on the question that you
- 42:23asked at the beginning of the show, writer, I think, you know,
- 42:27the way that we grow up, the climate a lot of our culture
- 42:30that can certainly determine how we we view the world and our experiences, you
- 42:37know, our experiences of life dictate, you know, what we believe in,
- 42:40how we fashion our own thoughts and our ideas and our beliefs. Now,
- 42:45as I mentioned in the very beginning of the show, how Hinduism is
- 42:52one of the oldest, well is the oldest religion in the world, dating
- 42:57back over five thousand years, and they believed in reincarnation. Now, when
- 43:04I'm thinking of reincarnation, I'm like, well, if reincarnation is real and
- 43:14we get brought back onto the Earth, but just in a different body,
- 43:20what would be the reason for that? And when you deduct, oh,
- 43:24well, if that's the case and that's really what's happening, does that mean
- 43:30that there's not any other place else to go? Right? Well, I
- 43:35mean, why would we need to be constantly continuously recycled back here? To
- 43:40me, that would indicate that there's no other place else to go, that
- 43:45this is the only place for us to go. If indeed reincarnation is a
- 43:51you know, let's rider, can we expand on that? Because if reincarnation
- 43:54is for our corporeal bodies, spirits, whatever you want to call it,
- 44:00then what about the planets. Earth is a living entity, It's a living
- 44:06planet. If it wasn't alive, we wouldn't be alive. Earth will eventually
- 44:10cease to exist, something will happen to either our Sun will go super nova,
- 44:15but Earth will eventually, some point in the future be destroyed. So
- 44:20how does the reincarnation story go then? Is Earth reincarnated? Does Earth come
- 44:27back into the ethereal realm and reincarnate as another planet, or does it become
- 44:31a sun you know, my mind and my meditation. I think about these
- 44:37things and you begin to extraculate it, and you're going, but wait a
- 44:40minute, reincarnation is finite. That's a good point. It is finite.
- 44:49I honestly don't have much of an interpretation or perception of reincarnation. Writer to
- 44:54your question, I do know that it's one of its probably I would say
- 44:58it's probably one of the oldest docs. It is part of the Christian doctrine
- 45:01originally, And of course it also depends on how you define reincarnation. So
- 45:07I suppose my interpretation would be, if I had to give you one is
- 45:10that we assume reincarnation means you come back into this world. But perhaps like
- 45:16in meso America and in Africa, the idea was you like pharaohs would be
- 45:22reincarnated but as stars. But that doesn't mean that they were like physically they
- 45:29physically became a star, or like the baby son from the Teletuppies, like
- 45:32it became alive. If it means you transcended to the stars, you transcended
- 45:40the heaven, like you reincarnated as something else, or you became associated with
- 45:45this with a star or something to that effect. So reincarnation. We assume
- 45:50it means bodies, but it might not mean physical human bodies or animal bodies
- 45:55or insect bodies. It might mean a consciousness that is that perhaps elsewhere I
- 46:01guess, rebirthed in the cosmos somewhere. That could be as a star,
- 46:06that could be as another planet. Like I'm not saying literally you become a
- 46:10planet or a star. I'm saying that the idea in Egypt was that the
- 46:14pharaohs would go to become stars. That's how they were reincarnated. So reincarnation
- 46:19might not be that we just come into a physical body again and when we
- 46:22die and see the light, that's us being born. I gin it's a
- 46:24very new age concept, so it's like we're star seeds, you know.
- 46:30I think that there's another way to interpret and define reincarnation again, as the
- 46:35Egyptians and as the Meso Americans did, that you were reincarnated as part of
- 46:38the cosmos view or actually, you know what that idea might be similar to
- 46:44that the mainline physics view of energy, right, like energy can't be destroyed,
- 46:47it can only be transferred themodynamics. Yes, it's in fact, I
- 46:52think modern physics there's actually a good book written on this about how modern physics
- 46:57mirrors a large amount of what we find an Eastern philosophy and the just tradition.
- 47:02I think that might be what reincarnation is, Like your energy gets recycled,
- 47:07not that you come back into a body. Does that make sense,
- 47:09right? I was just saying the perception of what people think reincarnation is.
- 47:15The people, Yeah, they think when they think of reincarnation, and I
- 47:21think the way that it's been depicted is that it's like an endless loop of
- 47:28being reincarnated back into a human body. But I believe that the Buddhists believe
- 47:32that you can be reincarnated into animals and plants and like all different forms of
- 47:40life. But again, I think people think that it means that we're automatically
- 47:47brought back onto this planet. And then that's my question and my point of
- 47:52bringing this up is like, well, why why would we have to come
- 47:58back here? You know, it doesn't really make any sense unless this is
- 48:02the only place for us to be, if this is the only place that
- 48:07it can stain physical three D life, such as the people that are listening
- 48:14to this and such as Wayne myself and Ryan. Right, if you deduct
- 48:17all that, and let's say reincarnation is real, then that would imply that
- 48:23this is the only place to be because it's the only place that we can
- 48:30I mean, what the fuck I mean that is hell? I mean means
- 48:32that this is a trap, there's no way out. Excuse me, bluntness,
- 48:38but that's exactly whatuld be my depiction of Hell. I mean, what
- 48:42do you go to hell for anyway? Well, you have to go back
- 48:45to the Christian theology or whatever. But that to me, you see,
- 48:49that's what drives me inside. And I'm going but wait a minute. So
- 48:52the ultimate intelligence that creates all of this architecture, this is what we call
- 48:58reality, the universe, ex that this is the best it could come up
- 49:01with. Maybe the idea of what maybe the purpose of what you're saying right
- 49:10of the purpose of coming back into this this world. Maybe it's like a
- 49:16lot of cultures believe in ancestor worship, where your ancestors are with you.
- 49:22Maybe the reincarnation element is almost like being reincarnated or kept alive in the minds
- 49:30of your descendants. Maybe it's not you know what, I don't know who
- 49:34my ancestors are. I mean, on the DNA but I don't know how
- 49:37to connect my ancestors and I don't know them. Well, maybe walk and
- 49:42slap me in the face and I'd go, sure, prove it, you
- 49:45know. But maybe we learned that after we die, I mean, maybe
- 49:46we the restraints to the physical world are lifted and we have access to the
- 49:52akashik or whatever that the Kosher records record. Yes, what actually comes from
- 49:59the book of mallet Ki By the way, I didn't know that, Yeah,
- 50:02Malachi h three twenty. It's actually that talks about the angel or the
- 50:09entity that writes everything down into the book. But then comes in another thought
- 50:17and train of thought, what if when we die, things are so bad
- 50:27outside of our reality that this place is the only place for us to come
- 50:31to, right, Like, what if everything is just like destroyed and this
- 50:37is a real simulation for us to be in for a period of time until
- 50:42everything outside of us gets rebuilt. What you're saying is, when you die
- 50:45and die, you go to Portland, don't bring your guns. You know.
- 50:55Well, I mean a lot of people think that, you know,
- 50:59especially the New Age thought ideas and beliefs, that we choose to come here,
- 51:07right that's like a theory and a thought that has been permeated for a
- 51:12really long time, and I feel like it's an excuse like to be like,
- 51:15oh, well, you chose this life. Well, I'm sure for
- 51:19a lot of people they did not choose their circumstances or their ideas, which
- 51:22I think is complete in utter fabrication. But if we take that into consideration,
- 51:28and that concept that we chose to be here and live this life,
- 51:34then why would we choose to be here and live this life. There would
- 51:38have to be some sort of extenuating circumstances outside of our reality that would kind
- 51:46of force us to continuously come back here. I don't know. That's just
- 51:52where my thought process. You know, you think about the birth process.
- 51:55So if we're really you know, eternal, or if we're really these consciousness
- 52:00that really never die, never began. But so you're telling me that we
- 52:06thought about this, and and so we're reading the agreement. You're going to
- 52:09go through the birth canal. I can't think of anything more painful for a
- 52:15human to experience than physical birth. It only happens one way. You can't
- 52:20do it twice. And then you're going to roll the dice and hope that
- 52:24someone's there to take care of you. I mean that maybe that is the
- 52:30point the experience. I don't know. Maybe that's why we fear death so
- 52:37much that we're afraid of being born again. M Ryan, what do you
- 52:46think? You know? Honestly, I don't know if I have much of
- 52:51an opinion on it. I don't know if I'm not an opinion per se.
- 52:53But I don't really have that thought worked out too well. I don't
- 53:00know if it's something that I could really it's abstract. I don't know if
- 53:05I could really put them into words. How I feel about it, Like
- 53:07I understand the question, I understand what Wayne's saying. Don't if I really
- 53:12have many thoughts about that, I'm being honest, Yeah, I think it's
- 53:15just an interesting concept and just where my mind and brain goes is sometimes it's
- 53:22a weird mind and a weird brain, But sometimes I think it has takes
- 53:27me to that direction, like you know, to analyze things from a different
- 53:31kind of perspective. And what if there is extenuating circumstances that we do not
- 53:37know about because we're in this three D physical reality that whenever we get outside
- 53:45of this three D physical reality, we actually get the full scope, in
- 53:50the full picture, so then we voluntarily come back whether those extenuating circumstances or
- 54:00are bad circumstances, or regardless if they're good or bad. Well, do
- 54:06all spirits have physical bodies? I mean I went to Bible school, and
- 54:13you know, we John writes about in the Book of Revelation, how the
- 54:16one third of the heavens, you know, and if you go by his
- 54:19number one thousand times a thousand times a thousand, then you know you're looking
- 54:22at something like ten trillion angels that were created, and all of a sudden
- 54:27they fail a third of them. That means there is roughly about thirty three
- 54:31trillion angel fallen angels. Going with the concept, and did all of those
- 54:38trillions of angels demons? Do they have physical bodies? Or is it that
- 54:44there's another process that we're not fully understanding how consciousness manifest. I mean,
- 54:52so if we're the only ones that are going through the physical birth again that's
- 54:58finite. Well, then I think you kind of have to define what an
- 55:06angel is. I mean, is it's like you're saying, as an angel
- 55:09a physical entity, does it have a physical body? Is it an energy?
- 55:15Is it electricity? You know what is an actual angel, and I
- 55:20think that it's a that's a hypothetical and theological definition of what an angel is,
- 55:28because I don't really think anybody really knows what an angel is well.
- 55:31In the same way that you can interpret heaven as being a state of love
- 55:36and compassion and hell as being a state of like betrayal and loneliness and heartbreak
- 55:43and purgatory, is that transition between the two that means purifying. I think
- 55:47you can interpret angels and demons in similar ways, Like if you were to
- 55:52look at a lot of classical demons in the demonological lore, where you have
- 55:58let's say asthmo dea who is he gives different things, like he can teach
- 56:02you things, but he's usually rich, he can make you rich. He's
- 56:07usually the demon of lust. So a person who is lust full is said
- 56:12to be possessed by as Modeas. It doesn't mean that they're in need of
- 56:16an exorcism. They're possessed by the spirit, if you will, of Asmodeus.
- 56:22They're possessed by the idea of Asthmodeus. In the same way that you
- 56:25know, we even talk sometimes politically about possession. We'll say people are possessed
- 56:30by Marxism or possessed by ultra conservatism. It's the same possessed by power,
- 56:37possessed by their wealth, their ideas. You know, we say ideas,
- 56:42and like sometimes our thoughts are eating us alive, like the demons are inside
- 56:45of a senus alive. I mean a lot of and same with angels too.
- 56:49A lot of this stuff is a matter of we're personifying suffering or personifying
- 56:57aspects of ourself that we can't I don't think, identify with otherwise, like
- 57:01we project them externally. And another good example of this is where the word
- 57:07exorcism comes from, because it has a similar route x orcism and ex er
- 57:13size. So we say exercise demons. It's kind of a funny play on
- 57:17words, but we literally exercise demons. Traditionally, demons would be possessed through
- 57:24medical procedures, long before there was ever like a cannon sort of exorcism in
- 57:30the church. The samurai would actually come into a home. These were the
- 57:37famous samurai warriors, and if someone was possessed quote unquote, they would take
- 57:43their sword and they would cut the air above the head to sever the connection
- 57:47to the spirit. So the samurai performed exorcisms. You go back much further
- 57:53than the samurai, and you find that people performed exorcisms in different ways all
- 57:59over the world. They were people that were sick from an illness, some
- 58:01sort of illness. We didn't know what it was, and so we said
- 58:05that there was some spirit possessing them. And so they would usually do things
- 58:08like playing music, which is harmony, which is balance and love and all.
- 58:15Pythagoras talked about harmony being basically God. And when these things would the
- 58:20music would be played, they thought that people could be healed and the demon
- 58:22would leave the body. But the point of what I'm getting out here is
- 58:27that sickness was usually seen as the possessing spirit, and we personified sicknesses as
- 58:32different demonic entities, and when we exercised them, well, we still do
- 58:37the same thing. We exercise to stay in shape. We also exercise to
- 58:43keep our minds and our mental states in shape so that we're not possessed by
- 58:46corrupting ideologies or ideas. Well, hopefully that's what we strive to do.
- 58:51That so demons are in a sense, their diseases, their temptations, their
- 58:58personifications of things, rather than physical entities. In the same way that we
- 59:02can see heaven and Hell as personifications of states of mind. So I don't
- 59:07think it's necessarily that there's all these different characters running around in some etheric realm.
- 59:15But I do think that, without sounding like a new ager, there
- 59:19is a universal I guess stream, let's say, of consciousness. And I
- 59:22don't think that you can separate it and say that there's a billion or a
- 59:25trillion of this, or that it's an infinite stream of consciousness let's say,
- 59:30and we're all just individual segments of that or little pieces of that. How
- 59:37many times have you read the law of one material right? Zero? I
- 59:44respect myself too much to red But there is some aspect of that. I
- 59:51think why that material is so popular because there's some aspect of that concept that
- 59:55is probably universally true. I mean, like the idea of animism. That's
- 1:00:00probably one of the oldest religious like beliefs or philosophies, that everything is animated
- 1:00:05with a spirit. I mean, if you you go, it doesn't matter
- 1:00:08where you look. If you look in like in the old Shamanic belief systems
- 1:00:14or the Shamanic cults or whatever you choose to call them, you know they
- 1:00:16kind of viewed everything as being I guess blessed with spirit. The animistic cults
- 1:00:24believed everything had spirit. Same thing. Again, I practice Shinto. Within
- 1:00:30Shintoism, there's kind of a universal idea, at least in Japan, there
- 1:00:34is everything is alive, everything has a spirit, you know, even ordinary
- 1:00:39kitchen utensils have a spirit. So it's interesting as well for myself. So
- 1:00:45in the Gospel of Mark, if you study the book itself, it's it's
- 1:00:52interesting because that is the primary book that introduced demons prior to the Gospel of
- 1:01:00Jesus. Was not the one that we would think. But in the Gospel
- 1:01:04of Mark and every village in town that he went into, the first thing
- 1:01:07he did, before he even laid hands to heal the sick, he cast
- 1:01:12out the demons. And then we have the demonac at the Dicopolis, that
- 1:01:19where Jesus asked the man, He says, well who are you? And
- 1:01:22the demon said, we are legion, meaning and of course the story goes
- 1:01:29on that then that demons came out of him and hit into a herd of
- 1:01:32swine, and they drowned themselves over the cliff. Lester Somraw's a guy I
- 1:01:39studied under in my youth. But it's very interesting because prior to that,
- 1:01:44in the Old Testament we had evil spirits. Saul was tormented by an evil
- 1:01:49spirit, and David would play the heart and soothe his temperament. And so
- 1:01:55again, the whole idea of demons within themselves a modern concept that we have
- 1:02:02now propagated to a whole structure of occultism. It's a whole structure of religious
- 1:02:08belief within itself. Yeah, well call it. The Plancy's Dictionary in Ferland
- 1:02:14late eighteen hundreds really amplified that because it he depicted all the classical demons and
- 1:02:20other I mean, it's a it's a dictionary, it's a encyclopedia, and
- 1:02:23gave them book. By the way it is. I have a rare copy
- 1:02:27of it. It's beautiful, lucky one. You know. You know that
- 1:02:31book. So if anybody doesn't know that book, go try to find a
- 1:02:35copy of it. Just look at it online. Huge, beautiful book,
- 1:02:37very expensive, but all like a lot of the demons that we like that
- 1:02:40that that we see depicted today, A lot of them, or I'd say
- 1:02:46almost all of them are referenceable back to the Plancy's Dictionary. So that was
- 1:02:52in like what the late what was it the nineteenth century? That so nineteenth
- 1:02:57century. Yeah, a lot of them depict or just they're just like one
- 1:03:01hundred and one hundred and forty years old something like that. They're not that
- 1:03:05old, but like whatever we consider it, I mean, demon demons are
- 1:03:09They come from the word damon, which again is right, divine ones,
- 1:03:14right, which is part of you, which I think is where the idea
- 1:03:16of the little angel and the little Devil on the shoulder come from. It's
- 1:03:21really you. You have that angelet. And even Native Americans have this.
- 1:03:24I don't know which tribes, if all tribes do. A lot of Native
- 1:03:27tribes have this idea of the two wolves in whichever one you feed, which
- 1:03:30when you feed, is the one that wins and gets strong. It's the
- 1:03:35same thing. Do you feed the angel, listen to the angel, or
- 1:03:37do you feed the devil? Or if you watch that, if you have
- 1:03:39watched family guy Peter's got the devil on the shoulder or something's like where's the
- 1:03:44other guy? A great joke that goes with that. It's a cute little
- 1:03:46blond thing and then little prick. We'll keep this there. You ready,
- 1:03:55there is the angel on Peter's shoulder, stuck in trap. That's unbelievable.
- 1:04:09Always a good time on Riders show. That's all I got to say.
- 1:04:13Yeah, so we have this, Uh we've covered a lot uh here today
- 1:04:18covered I can't even see it in the rear view mirror. Any what are
- 1:04:21we talking about? Demons? Demons play a big role into Hell, because
- 1:04:31that's that's who's the tormentors, right, that's the whole idea. You get
- 1:04:35sent to Hell, you're going to be tormented by the demons. Right,
- 1:04:45Yeah, I just lost my train of thought on what reached me? Think,
- 1:04:48well, what do the angels do for you in heaven? The seventy
- 1:04:55two virgins, and you know, you get the idea, well, they're
- 1:04:58all a but also a family guy or something said they were all man.
- 1:05:02They just didn't know it. They were all like a bunch of nerds playing
- 1:05:06World of Warcraft or some family guys. One of my favorite family guy skits
- 1:05:18was whenever Peter goes and looks in the mirror and he's contacted by his one
- 1:05:26of his ancestors that was black, and he asked him what's heaven like?
- 1:05:30And then the ancestor says, well, there's a shortage of chairs. He
- 1:05:40just disappears. But I've heard it said that demons give while angels take,
- 1:05:49which I think is a very interesting consolet that if you're if you want to
- 1:05:57tell the difference between an angel and a demon, you can tell by like
- 1:06:00what it's doing. If you're being given something, then it's by a demon.
- 1:06:04If something's being taken, then it's an angel. Which I think that
- 1:06:08the concept of angels and demons have been flipped. It's just like I think
- 1:06:14the concept of God and Satan or the devil or whatever personification you want to
- 1:06:20use, Lucifer has also been flipped. They're the opposites. Those are totally
- 1:06:27different characters, right, I mean, for heaven to be the opposite of
- 1:06:30hell, heaven or vice versa, hell to be the opposite of heaven,
- 1:06:33we could look at it that way. Hell couldn't also be a pit of
- 1:06:36fire. Fire is light? Like you ask the most tale the Baptist missionaries
- 1:06:42that where's hell again? We're bringing the family and everyone else. Yeah,
- 1:06:48it's having the opposite, you know. The contrary is it's if you have
- 1:06:53a place of fire and light, that's not the opposite of a place of
- 1:06:58heat and light and beauty and hell. That doesn't make any sense. That's
- 1:07:00purely a creation. But suffering and feeling like anger creates heat. You can
- 1:07:08feel the heat when you get really angry. You can also feel the heat
- 1:07:11when you get really you know, you feel really in love. You say
- 1:07:14people are in heat or in animals in heat. It's the same kind of
- 1:07:16a thing. We look at God and we look at these different definitions and
- 1:07:20versions of God. Same thing with the devil. Like people say the devil,
- 1:07:24Lucifer, and Satan are all the same character, They're not. Satan
- 1:07:28is Hitan the adversary. You could interpret that as a necessary evil like Saturn
- 1:07:32or chronos chronology time time is a necessary evil, death and resurrection, death
- 1:07:39and rebirth. The accuser the devil, I mean, in simple terms,
- 1:07:45the devil would be the inversion of life. So l I ve live.
- 1:07:48Turn it around, it's evil at a D it's devil. Devil is d
- 1:07:53e v I L reverse that it's lived, to have lived. The opposite
- 1:07:57of to have lived is to die. That's evil. And then Lucifer is
- 1:08:00this false light. So in the same way that you know, anger can
- 1:08:04make you hot and love can make you hot. Both of those things are
- 1:08:10also I think exemplified in the concept of Lucifer, because Lucifer is false light,
- 1:08:17but there's also good light. In the same way, there's actually good
- 1:08:23and bad darkness. Like good darkness, you could say, is the abyss
- 1:08:26without the abyss or the beginning of everything when the spirit hovers over the waters
- 1:08:31in Genesis. You can't create light if there is no darkness, and Manly
- 1:08:35Hall argues that too. He talks about how there's a real darkness and a
- 1:08:40fake darkness, and a real light and a fake light. So when you
- 1:08:43start to look at it from that point of view, these are not all
- 1:08:45the same characters. These are totally different characters, and they're kind of like
- 1:08:48Heaven, Hell and Purgatory in a way because you have Satan who is kind
- 1:08:55of hot, you have the Devil who is kind of cold in that ice
- 1:08:58palace, and you have Lucifer, who's kind of lukewarm in between. It's
- 1:09:01a very similar, almost trinity like concept. I think that's just that's my
- 1:09:05view. Oh, even the Bible says that God, you know, Genesis
- 1:09:11one to one, came from darkness. There was no light. It spoke
- 1:09:16and it said, let there be light. I don't know who heard that,
- 1:09:19but anyway, so by that, the very logic is is that whatever
- 1:09:24this creative force was, it came from the void. The nothingness came from
- 1:09:29the void. That's right, and that darkness is kind of like the necessary
- 1:09:33evil to compare and contrast these things. I've also thought, this is my
- 1:09:39opinion, and I wrote a book on this recently called Garden of Hallucinations.
- 1:09:44I was thinking, you know, I've never done ayahuasca, but when I've
- 1:09:47listened to other people who have done ayahuasca, and I've looked at paintings from
- 1:09:50shamans, ayahuasca experiences sound really similar to Genesis. You're in a garden surrounded
- 1:09:59by all these creatures, and as snake, who's half woman in the tradition
- 1:10:05Lilith with the red hair, comes to you on a tree. And in
- 1:10:11the ayahuasca experience, you're usually in a garden. There's a lot of animals
- 1:10:15and snakes. It's very beautiful, and Mother Ayahuasca, who is half human
- 1:10:20half snake, comes and talks to you. And from Genesis to Revelation Saint
- 1:10:26John, there's a I mean, I've heard some people that I think would
- 1:10:30be considered pretty reputable sources, like scholars talk about the idea that John was
- 1:10:35maybe high on mushrooms when he wrote Revelation, right, there are a lot
- 1:10:39of Yeah, So from Genesis to Revelation, you've got like an ayahuasca experience.
- 1:10:45You've got like a amanita muscare mushroom experience. The Bible is very much
- 1:10:48like a shamanic journey in a way, whether that's you know, internal in
- 1:10:53you or an altered state of consciousness external of you or both. Isn't the
- 1:10:57snake people but naga half human half's right one of them? Yeah, it's
- 1:11:02India, I believe India. Yes, and you find them everywhere. They
- 1:11:05got like the dragon dragon people in China, the rainbow serpent in Australia.
- 1:11:11Yeah, even quits ocuadle is the plump serpent in in America, the plum,
- 1:11:15the plume serpent, the origins of America. And it's esoteric meaning you
- 1:11:23know, I could be off on that amoral like a mirror am. I
- 1:11:30think it is Native Americans, right cuco Kan Yeah, and they have the
- 1:11:41I mean they have the the adversary of quits. A quaddle is took to
- 1:11:45capta is the god of illusions, very much like Lucifer. It's so you
- 1:11:50have the same I mean, these concepts are universal. I think that we're
- 1:11:55dealing with Honestly, I think all this, these mythological narratives and all these
- 1:12:00like the ancient magical practices, the ritual magic practices that some people still do
- 1:12:04today. I think a lot of it's just honestly psychology, like in the
- 1:12:09same way that you have like astrology, and then astronomy comes out of astrology
- 1:12:15alchemy, and then like biology and chemistry largely come out of more so chemistry
- 1:12:19comes at alchemy. You've got like magic, like ritual ceremonial magic, and
- 1:12:26psychology kind of comes out of ceremonial magic because that's what like the magical tools
- 1:12:30like the wand and the sword represent your will, represents your mind that you
- 1:12:35know. The pinnacle is the body, you know, the cup or the
- 1:12:39cup is the pouring out of perhaps thought or consciousness. Different schools they assign
- 1:12:45those two different elements like firewater, air, and earth. But it's really
- 1:12:49just psychology. It's really it's a really and mythology itself is actually a form
- 1:12:56of science because you're trying to catalog and figure out why things happen the world
- 1:13:00and give names to them. Why does lightning come down from the heaven?
- 1:13:03Why does it rain? Why is their wind? Why are their floods?
- 1:13:05Why are their storms? You personify them, give them me. That's science.
- 1:13:11Quite interesting to talk, Beau. I have a ton of ghost hutting
- 1:13:15equipment, and one of my favorite ones is the SLS camera. And when
- 1:13:20you're walking in the woods, it's quite interesting if you think I've seen this.
- 1:13:26If you think something's going to scare you, you have this anticipating of
- 1:13:30fear. It seems to radiate and manifest exactly that which you are thinking.
- 1:13:35Whereas if you go in with the calmness and say, well, I'm going
- 1:13:39to speak with the spirits, it amazes me how I can pick them up
- 1:13:43on the camera. They become very proliferated within the trees themselves. But that's
- 1:13:49if you believe in ghosts. Yeah. I think there was a science experiment
- 1:13:56where a group of researchers actually created a ghost, like an agregoric ghost.
- 1:14:03They gave it a backstory and gave it a name, and like all the
- 1:14:08stuff and wild try and communicate with it, and then it would communicate back
- 1:14:13with them. It just shows you that your thoughts and your ideas and your
- 1:14:17beliefs create reality. Well, it says the children of Israel when they faced
- 1:14:23the Philistines that they created go them the excuse me these clay figures that are
- 1:14:34alive. I just forgot the word at the moment. What were the gollum
- 1:14:41thought forms like the thank you, the tulpas and the or Paracelsus had a
- 1:14:47weird name for them. I can't remember the name they were usually actually sometimes
- 1:14:51they were so I think Paracelsus, the alchemist and physician and some of the
- 1:14:56other old writers associated those like golams are tulpas or agrigors, which I think
- 1:15:02is French. They associated those with the elementals, and actually Jock Folet talks
- 1:15:08about them as being the little people, the little green men, which is
- 1:15:12part of the UFO narrative as well. I mean, and the sylths,
- 1:15:15which are the air spirits. I mean, they're basically like there's these creatures
- 1:15:19that can fly through the air. They abduct you into like the fairies,
- 1:15:23they take you to their world. So there's a correlation, without doubt between
- 1:15:27everything from the elementals, which are associated with modern elements, modern elements,
- 1:15:32carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, et cetera. And then all the
- 1:15:35you know in UFOs, all the way back to what's that you brought up
- 1:15:43just this article on our research group brought Philip the ghost to life, which
- 1:15:48which was what I was talking about, and they gave it a backstory,
- 1:15:53the fictional character and named it Philip, and they created this whole biography for
- 1:16:02this entity and this in this ghost, and then they started to communicate with
- 1:16:09him. So like when you're looking at that's an interesting story because when you
- 1:16:15perform ritual ceremonial magic, let's say, and you do something that's more black
- 1:16:18and you try to communicate with the demon or the devil and obtain something.
- 1:16:24I mean, ultimately you're you're doing this with yourself, which is why black
- 1:16:29magic can drive people mad and crazy. Like really dark you know, things
- 1:16:33where you're doing really bad stuff will help you can talk about necessarily, but
- 1:16:38like that kind of thing where you're asking for assistance or you're asking for something
- 1:16:42from some some other entity, you're really talking to yourself. And that's why
- 1:16:45you can drive yourself mad. That's why the demon in the myths or the
- 1:16:48stories, the demon will try to kill you and break the contract. It's
- 1:16:53really you driving yourself crazy. In the same way that when you see the
- 1:16:57death tarot card, that means that you might actuly. You might actually have
- 1:17:01a relationship that's ending, or you might have a job that's ending. Let's
- 1:17:04say you can interpret it that way. But if you worry so much about
- 1:17:08it, you might actually end up doing something that you wouldn't have done otherwise,
- 1:17:12and you might end up dying because you were so afraid that you saw
- 1:17:15the death tarot card. So if they can create a ghost and basically like
- 1:17:19they can manifest this thing, it's the same thing when you're talking about the
- 1:17:23spirit realm, or the demons or the angels, like these are things that
- 1:17:26we can septualize, personify, and if we see them in a particular way,
- 1:17:31then they can have an effect on us. That's what all the magical
- 1:17:34works all about. Anyway, you know something, Ryannie, you were saying
- 1:17:39that, it's exactly the same thing when I was in the ministry of Christianity.
- 1:17:44Isn't that what you pray to God for? You want God to answer
- 1:17:47your question, your prayer, your request, But there is an exchange that
- 1:17:53is required. If you're in the occult, even if you're into a religion,
- 1:18:00it's the same principle. I've told people this many times. My initiation
- 1:18:03into the occult was thirty years in Pentecostal Christianity, because within the charismatic Pentecostal
- 1:18:12movement there is more of what I would call occultism taking place in the ceremonies
- 1:18:17than I've seen in any black magic or any other occult practices that I've seen
- 1:18:23or read about. Let's tell people to go to a Catholic church. Well,
- 1:18:29I mean you think about communion is a blood covenant, It's a blood
- 1:18:31contract, the consumption of the flesh within itself. I mean the same thing
- 1:18:39when you put someone in the middle and you form a prayer circle around them,
- 1:18:43the same thing when you're going to lay hands on a person to receive
- 1:18:45the Holy Spirit or to cure them to bring forth healing. All of this
- 1:18:50is ritual magic. It totally is. I completely agree with you, and
- 1:18:57in fact, I went to church recently. I went to a couple of
- 1:19:01churches recently just to I haven't been a church as I was a kid,
- 1:19:04and they're the first on you or anything like that, not burst into flames
- 1:19:11or anything like that good. But the first day I was, the first
- 1:19:15night I went. I want going every week, but the first time I
- 1:19:17went, they were talking about the Witch of Indoor, which is like one
- 1:19:19of my favorite stories. But then the like I went the other night and
- 1:19:23they were talking about they were talking about marriage, but they had they I
- 1:19:29forget exactly what the pastor was saying, but as he was talking, I
- 1:19:31was thinking, like, this just sounds like magic. It just sounds like
- 1:19:35some ceremonial ritual thing that you're doing. But if you do it in a
- 1:19:40church setting, everybody's you know, shakes each other's hands and dresses nice,
- 1:19:44and they're like, no, this is for God. It's like, well,
- 1:19:46that's what you're doing, and it's ritual magic. You purify yourself the
- 1:19:50baptism, you clean yourself, you wear nice clothes, you light the incense
- 1:19:56and the oils the sophima gationation, and we pray to God, let let
- 1:20:01this, they say, Let this Bible study, you know, fill us
- 1:20:03with knowledge and wisdom from your great books. It's all this, we would
- 1:20:08say, and we invite the Holy Spirit to come in and take command of
- 1:20:12the meeting. Excuse me, I could put the you know whatever, Lucifer
- 1:20:18in the front of that, you know, but that's really and we,
- 1:20:20like you said, because it was in a church, it's completely legal.
- 1:20:25Yeah, so to speak. And actually when you say when they say the
- 1:20:29end of the pray or they say amen at the beginning to end, I
- 1:20:30always tack on raw. Yeah, and raw not a woman, but am
- 1:20:39a Monroe. See that's what always got me with Paul. You know,
- 1:20:43Paul wrote in the Book of Acton he was in Ephesus, which was the
- 1:20:45occult center of that time in that era. A lot of people don't know
- 1:20:50Ephesus was known for that. And it's always interested me because Paul comes in
- 1:20:55and he says, well, I saw your promenade where you had the different
- 1:21:00gods that he had, and then he had one that was dedicated to God
- 1:21:02that had no name, and he says, that's the God I serve.
- 1:21:08Now. He said that in fifty yards across the way was a synagogue,
- 1:21:14so Paul would have known the name of Jehovah. So who is this god?
- 1:21:20Again? I know it extends all the way into what I how the
- 1:21:25occult is so much or the religion is so much like the occult. I
- 1:21:30don't know if this is similar to what are relevant to what you brought up
- 1:21:32earlier, Wayne about how maybe the founders of Christianity in a sense like the
- 1:21:39founders of Islam. There's a similar origin because in this there's an esoteric story
- 1:21:45which you might be familiar with, the interpretation of Lucifer being cast down to
- 1:21:49earth or from the heavens down to the land below, and that is the
- 1:21:54moon God often depicted as or personified as Jehovah, casts the light because the
- 1:22:00moon is the reflector casts the light of Venus Lucifer down to the earth.
- 1:22:04So it's really like a physical thing where the light of Venus is cast to
- 1:22:08the earth by the moon god Jehovah, but as a moon god Jehovah.
- 1:22:11That's I mean, the moon is the centerpiece of Islam. I mean they're
- 1:22:15I mean Allah, which is Arabic for God. I mean it is a
- 1:22:18moon based religion. So it is the Hebrew calendar. Yes, it's moon
- 1:22:24based, and that's why they it's and in fact, if you go to
- 1:22:28Temple Square in Salt Lake City, they have the sun too, but they
- 1:22:31have a lot of moons simply they have all the phases of the moon carved
- 1:22:35into the main temple which is oriented west to east. Yeah, I mean
- 1:22:42moon worship is a is a primary foundational element within all of human history,
- 1:22:46which it's from erb the you know, which the Abrahamic religion. He was
- 1:22:51a Samarian, but that's what his family were. They worked at the temple
- 1:22:56for the moon goddess yep, and the moon moon goddesses. Now you find
- 1:23:01the moon goddess in in ancient Japan too, they worship the moon goddess.
- 1:23:05I believe Suki Yomi, which is my name name, yeah, Yomi,
- 1:23:13is the Japanese underworld. So here again you have Suki Yomi, I believe.
- 1:23:17I'm a double check that to make sure that's right. But you have
- 1:23:19Asuki Yomi. Uh who is the who is the moon goddess? And double
- 1:23:25check the name, Yeah, Suku Suko or Suku Suku Yomi. So you
- 1:23:30can extract the underworld out of the name for the moon goddess. And that's
- 1:23:33really what the moon is. The moon is a reflector of light, so
- 1:23:38it is the in a sense that you have the as above so below hermetic
- 1:23:42axiom here too, I think because you have the moon, which is essentially
- 1:23:45reflecting the light onto the underworld when the when the sun, the black sun
- 1:23:49is you know, goes into the underworld like Ross Chariot in the West,
- 1:23:55and there's darkness upon the Earth, and all we get is that the reflection
- 1:23:58of the moon. So the moon like the Sun. I mean, it's
- 1:24:01not just sun worship, it's moon worship. And I think that gets overlooked
- 1:24:06quite a bit. I smell a rat, yeah, And I think another
- 1:24:13thing is like if you if you extract the name YopE me out of moon
- 1:24:16goddess in Japan, it shows you that the moon is intimately associated with darkness
- 1:24:21and with the underworld. That's and false light because it's the moon that casts
- 1:24:28Venus or Lucifer down to the Earth. Didn't you see the black moon during
- 1:24:31the eclypse Ryan? You mean the double moon in the double sun. Yeah.
- 1:24:38I was talking to somebody. I was talking to somebody at my apartment
- 1:24:41complex that when this was happening, and they said, they said, I'm
- 1:24:45trying to find the moon and I said, well, it's some pretty sure
- 1:24:47it's right there. And they said, no, no, no, they
- 1:24:48said that's not the moon. They said there's another moon. I said,
- 1:24:53I was like, I don't I genuinely have no idea what you're talking about.
- 1:24:56They said, well, no, they I read someone online they said
- 1:24:58that there's another there's like multiple planets, it's happening right now, and there's
- 1:25:01like a fake moon. And I was like, what are you reading?
- 1:25:04What are you talking? A bro? Well, that's probably what they were
- 1:25:11getting at. Yeah, the super planet. Did you see people cutting these
- 1:25:16videos? I'm sure you saw this writer where people like filming the eclipse or
- 1:25:20something and then like the video clearly cuts, and then they have a they
- 1:25:26have like the video of the moon. They're like, well, how's the
- 1:25:29moon over there if it's supposed to be over here? And it's like they
- 1:25:30clearly just cut these two videos together. They got like a million hits on
- 1:25:34Youtubeer, all we all we have to do is lie, I guess,
- 1:25:41just bring a little fear into it and get a little bit of the occult,
- 1:25:44little bit of religion. You gotta. You got a best seller,
- 1:25:46and if you don't believe me, you're going to hell. That's the way
- 1:25:51it works. That's why I'm not as popular as I should be. Guys,
- 1:25:58I can ask you both a question real quick. If you had to
- 1:26:00define your philosopher lane, like what religion, philosophy? Like, what's your
- 1:26:05outlook on life? Like I do practice Shinto. I think it's beautiful.
- 1:26:10I'm not. It's not a dogma though, Like what do you guys practice?
- 1:26:15Do you think? Do you have? Do you have an identification of
- 1:26:16classification for yourself? Either of you? For myself? It's like Aristotle said,
- 1:26:26I I realized that the one constant in my life is I don't know
- 1:26:30anything. I have always been a person who gives praise and gratitude, and
- 1:26:36as I have evolved, I don't know if you want to use that word,
- 1:26:41it's probably as good as word as any. I give praise to the
- 1:26:45one who created my consciousness. I don't know who or what that is,
- 1:26:50but I do know it exists. I can't give it definition, but I
- 1:26:55sing to it. I give gratitude and praise and thanksgiving for it, because
- 1:27:00if it wasn't for that, I wouldn't be who I am. So that's
- 1:27:03kind of where I'm at. Okay, what about you, writer? And
- 1:27:06then I know you get to wrap it up. I was just curious about
- 1:27:09this. Well, every time that I think that I one hundred percent for
- 1:27:16a fact know something something. Later on in the future comes out and makes
- 1:27:24me reevaluate my beliefs. So it's always a it's a changing it's an ever
- 1:27:32changing thing and I and I think that's the beauty of it. The beauty
- 1:27:38of it is that we can have these kinds of theosophical discussions and maybe change
- 1:27:45our ideas and our beliefs and our views. I think that that's what makes
- 1:27:49us so special here. And anybody that is locked into a strict dogma that
- 1:27:56does not allow criticism, does not allow outside thoughts and ideas, in my
- 1:28:03personal view, is the wrong way to go. I think that we should
- 1:28:08always be open to different thoughts, ideas and beliefs and not be able to
- 1:28:15and be able to change and edit our own personal thoughts, ideas and believes
- 1:28:21when presented with new information. That's why people I never lie. I change
- 1:28:30my mind a lot, but I never lie. I mean, all you
- 1:28:34can work with is the knowledge that you have at the time, and once
- 1:28:39we gain more knowledge, our ideas and thoughts and beliefs inevitably change, and
- 1:28:45they should change. That's a part of the evolving nature of reality here.
- 1:28:53I agree they should change. It's probably not good to be stuck in stuck
- 1:28:57in ways, especially when it's some sort of dogma or doctrine that you're trying
- 1:29:01constantly to defend. You find that's really hard to the date or converse with
- 1:29:06people that do have that, because they're trying to defend their stance and when
- 1:29:11you're not really even attacking it, nor are you presenting your own. Really,
- 1:29:15I think some people have a hard time dealing with that. But maybe
- 1:29:17before we go, Rider and I are going to be at the contact and
- 1:29:20the Desert Conference, we should mention that again, that's coming up soon end
- 1:29:26of May. Yeah, how can people get a hold of you to contribute
- 1:29:34to that fund? Ryan? Yeah, we're actually I think we pretty much
- 1:29:39made a most We're only like fifty bucks away or something. But you want
- 1:29:43to find my content. Rdigable at yahoo dot com is my email if you
- 1:29:46want to contact me. But the Secret Teachings like you see above here at
- 1:29:50the Teachings dot info is my antiquated website, and there's an inbed player for
- 1:29:58the free show archive. Uh, there's an RSS feed. And then of
- 1:30:01course if you're interested in my books, a cult Arcana would probably be a
- 1:30:05book you'd really enjoy, h that I think would be really in line with
- 1:30:12what we talked about that I actually have a chapter on Heaven Helen Purgatory in
- 1:30:15that book. So that's at the Secret Teachings dot info cult Arcana. Thanks
- 1:30:19for having me on writer. Don't you love that? Ryan? Whenever I
