Mass - 03-14-2023
Hello, humans. Hello, humans. How's everybody? How are we doing? Transitions.
So everybody is probably a little freaked out or starting to become so as they start reacting to the failure of the banks. There's a lot of them going down, down. By the way, today is the 13 March Monday. We started seeing the bank failures and now we're starting to see the preemptive seizures of the bank or closing of it by the Federal Reserve because they know who's going down.
Started seeing this last week. It'll continue for some time. We have to get rid of the debris that's been accumulating for several hundred years. And in this last 100 years, it's really built up with the Federal Reserve. So we've got to kill off all of the debt that's accumulated in the dollar.
And the dollar had in 1913, it had 100% purchasing power per dollar. And then we started piling debt on top of it. And we've got debt like this. And now we've got .016, I think, cents. So that's almost two cent worth of purchasing power left in the dollar relative to 1913.
And all the rest of it is debt that's been piled on, piled on, piled on. And so we need to shed all of this material right here that has accumulated. That's the process that we're going through. Now.
In doing this process, we've also been involved in this very large war. The war itself, in my opinion, was existent in the 1950s. I can see signs from 1957 that the plot to take over the United States was active. And so we have it was planned before that. We'll just pick up on it in 1957 and it goes out like this.
And over here is the let's just say that this is the Biden era, okay? And then we have like JFK assassinated in 63. And then everybody can easily look up all the crap that's happened in between. And that's all Kazare and Mafia deep state shit that was done. They've been doing it to all of these different countries.
We're seeing the results of that now. They're trying to take over and solidify all of their control over the western liberal republics here. Their idea is that once they've got control over all of us, they'll turn all of us and assault Russia and then take over China and then turn their attention to Africa to mop up. Right? That's the way they're feeling about it.
We won't go into South America anyway. That's sort of the plan, only it's run into a big problem. We're in the Biden era.
We had what I call the SoC self organizing collective start sometime back here. They were probably aware of it, of what was going down. And then Kennedy gets sorry about that. Kennedy gets killed and gets assassinated. And the sock starts off on its stuff.
Now the sock is going to continue out. The Biden regime is running into a hard stop at the moment. And this is the beginning of the improvisation within the plan. So you'll hear people say, oh, trust the plan, trust the plan, trust the plan. And in this period, in this point here, we have the plan operational, but it relies on a counter to everything that the Biden regime is doing in order that the mass of the populace might wake up, right?
And we needed to have this not echoing, but this exposure of all of the stuff that the Biden regime was doing in real time as it was happening, in order that we might generate the mass that we have now in the awakened population. They may not all be awake to any real degree, but that's immaterial. We now have the mass of the population that's on this track, not the Biden track, right? So the communists have been attempting to take over. Communism is just an invention of the Kazarean mafia.
Just like with socialism. It's not a natural, organic, arising ideology. It is a crafted. So capitalism is not an ideology, right? There's nobody out there telling you, you got to be a better capitalist and all of this kind of shit.
They don't have the rituals. They don't have the rigidity, the structure or anything. Socialism is an ideology. Communism is an ideology. Climate catastropheism is an ideology.
Trends is an ideology. They're very, very brittle. Capitalism just happens. That's what happens, right? It's organic.
It's native. You can't really do away with it. In all of the other ideologies, socialism has never stopped capitalism inside it. Communism never stopped capitalism inside it. It suppressed it and tried to direct the output to the Kazarean mafia and the deep state.
And this fails, okay? Always continuously over time. Everybody suffers in the process, but it will fail. And there's nothing that the gazerians in the deep state can do about it. But now we're here at what's known as like, the denouncement, right?
This is the end of the play. We've seen the end of the Biden regime. It's just ahead of us. Here in May, we get into the crash of the federal government by lack of of funding. This is predictable because we've been through this before.
So in in 23 in the Weimar Republic in Germany, they had a track that really went from like 1920 through to 1933, which is when Hitler established power. But in this period of time here, in 1920 through 1923, they were bubbling along just sort of fine with their inflation rate. It was very high. It was an ugly inflation rate. The currency, the Reich mark had been had the shit kicked out of it by World War I.
They lost all their resources, all different kinds of things, reparations. They had to give stuff to the people they'd harmed. And then in 1923, just like this year, in January, there were certain financial things that happened, and it started escalating the inflation rate. And then the people started piling on knowing that the inflation was running at that time. That's what they called it, running inflation.
The people started piling on and trying to get ahead of that. And so as soon as you got any kind of currency at all, you'd spend it because the very next day, even later that day, it would buy you less. So it was quite true that you'd get up in the morning and there would be one price for a cup of coffee and by the time you went to bed that night, that price had escalated. That was how bad it was. We have personal family knowledge of this because we had a couple of members of the family in Germany that were academics and had retired like in 1922 and 1923 and attempted to live on pensions that went just they were just evaporated, just nothing over the course of about seven months.
We're doing this in about the same period of time, about seven to nine months. And what happens here in the inflation in 23 was that they got to a point where the barrels full of, wheelbarrows full of money to go and buy an egg, that kind of thing, right? Well, if you've seen the prices of eggs, you know where we're headed. But in 1923 they got the banking crisis that we're sort of going through right now. And then the hyperinflation ran so fast that basically the money collapsed, right?
No one had any confidence in it at all. And somewhere in this period of time, right there, an interesting thing occurs, and that is that people that are used to be or are at the head of the social order in terms of their prestige, their payment for their work, their lifestyle, all of this, they just went, the whole thing just crashed. And so you had professors, former professors that had multiple PhDs, all of this kind of stuff, head of universities out begging on the street because they didn't have enough money from their pension to buy anything, right, for food. This kind of a deal. It was a seriously tough time and it happened fairly rapidly.
Once they got into the hyperinflationary period, we're in that right now, people are starting to spend cash the dollar as fast as they possibly can. They're trying to get out of the dollar. And so this is going to predictably, this is going to escalate in a similar fashion. And so some point here around may we get to the point where there's a crisis in the governmental structure and people walk away from their jobs. So you'll have people it seems stupid to say it now, right?
But you've got people right now that man and a wife, both working for government, both working for federal government, might make, between the two of them, take home or not take home, but their combined income might be a quarter of a million dollars a year, right? Some serious dollars. You would think those people will be walking away from their jobs by this summer, because in May, we're going to hit a funding crisis. And we know that this is baked into it right now because the Federal Reserve and all the banks have said the backstop word, okay?
And backstop means that the Federal Reserve will print money. And they'll print and they'll print and they'll print. This, of course, is going to cause this hyperinflation thing. So if you know that every fucking bank on the West Coast is going to fail and it's going to cost $30 trillion or something, I don't know, we're just making up numbers here and that the Fed is going to create $30 trillion tomorrow. They're not going to take them a week.
They're doing it tomorrow. Chick, it's done. There you go. 30 trillion. Well, that 30 trillion is worth shit, right?
Worth nothing. And you'll know this so that when you get that dollar in your hand or you get paid, you're going to get anything you can for it now. And so this is the hyperinflation period we're in. It'll cause government to literally walk away. It'll cause people to say, no point for me to go and get an ebt card.
If the ebt card, whatever amount is on it, would not even buy me a coffee, would not even pay me, so to speak, to get up off my ass and go into the store and swap the entire contents of that ebt card for a coffee, right? And so they won't. So people will just abandon the Biden regime and the federal government and all this kind of stuff. It will take months. It's not going to happen overnight.
But you'll be surprised at how fast it does happen. In the 20s, in diaries that were left to us and my family from these academics that lived in Germany, it went from the, let's just say the early part of February. And then by May, in in his world, people had walked away from their jobs. The government had been depleted by maybe they didn't have demographics, they didn't have mass communications. They just had newspapers.
So a lot of what he was reporting had to have been guestimates relative to what he was seeing in his local environment. And in his local environment, he had in northern Germany, most of the village he lived in had been in some way involved in the government, and they were working in the machining industries, the early shipbuilding industries that were all basically because of the war had been taken over by the government. Right. Anyway, that period of time, it was like between, as I say, the early part of February. And then he said in the little diaries talking about in March, so and so stayed home, didn't go to work anymore.
So and so and so and so and so and so and so in his little cluster in the village, his little cul de sac or neighborhood, part of that village that they were in, out of the 30 workers there, you know, nine of them in in, like, one or two weeks, just decided, that's it, I'm not going into work anymore. No point. And they started doing stuff to try and survive that period of time that had had not related to any kind of payment, because there was no more structure in the work that was being given. Now, I don't know that we're going to go that far here. I think our coming period of time, the test of our country and ourselves, starts right here, because none of this is scripted, right?
Because the Biden regime is going to end. We're in this period of time now where there's a tit for tat, plan for plan kind of thing back and forth with the Bidens, but it's going to end after that. It's all free. Foreman guys, I mean, we're making it up as we go along now. True.
There's a plan down here, all right, so the plan down here, we'll just say that's the plan. That's its line. The plan continues beyond the end of the Biden regime. So it's not like the goal was to defeat the Bidens. That's just a tactic within the overall plan, right?
So the strategy is the big line. This was just a little battle these past 810 years fighting the well, even beyond that, obama, Bush, all these fuckers, right? Fighting the deep state at that level has been but merely battles along the way in the larger war. And so we've got all of this shit up here. But this is a good part in my way of thinking, because from here on, we don't have to worry about that.
These guys are going to drop off over this period of time. They will just fade down to nothing. We'll get rid of all of their start redoing all of their stuff, and then we're in the building phase, and all kinds of cool things can come out. Now, in my opinion. By the way, way the hell back here.
In 1905, the deep state took over academia and has been polluting the data ever since. And they even polluted Tesla in real time, or near real time at that, because they didn't have to worry about real time. They could do it through the newspapers and so on. So that by the time Tesla died, they'd already been defaming him and destroying his legacy, but taking what he knew in his devices for themselves. And so I'm looking forward to undoing all of the crap that's in our science from 1905 that has so distorted everything and will get out into a whole new world out here, right?
So I'm very optimistic, but I know we're going to go through a lot of shit. Okay? So by May, in my estimation, we're going to hit this period of time. Now, in May, maybe it'll be the first week. That's what it sort of looks like we'll get to a point in that first week where there will be lots of histrionics, lots of upset, angry language, lots of people freaking out, ripping their hair out, pissing themselves, this kind of thing, right?
That in May actually may be the period of time that Dick Olgier's remote viewing, where he saw the people in the halls of Congress puking their guts out, all of this all around the dollar and the structure and all of that, that may indeed be that period of time. It may be in that first week of May. But nonetheless, even if that precedes it, even if Dick's image precedes this period in time, in the first part of May, we're going to get to this crises that will involve banks, it'll involve the Federal Reserve, it'll involve the federal government. And from those federal government and banks and so on, it'll come down to students, student loans and we'll get into that in a minute. And then also down to regional banks and local or state, local and regional governments.
Now the regional collectives in governments will die in May, all right? So we're going to see this. We've got our government in all these layers. We've got local, we've got state and then we've got federal. But then there's also this layer of regional that binds parts of local to trying to take the power away from the state into this regional layer, right?
These are all these regional councils. These regional councils claim jurisdiction and stuff over your local crap that really should be supervised by the local level and then only go up to state. And beyond that it's not anybody's concern. So in my opinion, the federal government's regional structure I'm in region Ten here. They call it the west coast of the United States includes Alaska, Hawaii.
I think it includes Hawaii too. So they busted us up into these ten regions, making it easier to control. So basically it's consolidating. Okay? So one of the interesting things about this in my opinion, is that when we hit this crisis in May 1, they'll sacrifice the regional ones first, right?
Just because of the nature of what's going to happen. So all of these regional collective of government just got to crap out. All those people won't have work, they won't have money coming in or maybe it'll come in, it won't buy anything, people won't be doing shit. All different kinds of breakdown will start in May and in my opinion it will hit the regionals first and then it'll go up into the Feds. So it will go up into the Feds over the course of May and June and then in July it'll come back down to the state level in local and regional.
And so that's where it's going to be really hard, guys. So you're looking at a bad July, but there'll be good parts. I mean, it's not total bad or anything like that. 4 july is going to be kick ass this year, believe me. Okay?
So July, August and September economically are going to be just shit, just the absolute pits relative to the Great Awakening. Everybody's seeing shit. It'll be very good. But in order for everybody to see shit, you got to be in the shit, right? You got to be into it up to your nose and crawling out, recognizing that you move or you die.
And so that's where we're in here. This is the shit. Months after that, I expect that the plant, and so that might be this area right here. That might be the shipments right down into here. But after that, I expect the plan to really start taking off, and then we will see bits of optimistic reasons to think that the plan is working and stuff's actually happened and so on.
Now, this is decades. This is decades. We have to rebuild. We know we have to rebuild science from 19 five or earlier. It may go all the way back to 1830 anyway.
So we know we have a lot of rebuilding. We got to get a lot of crap out of our system.
So this is what I think of this period right now, is our detox coming up, all right? Because we're going to get rid of all the crap that we've had this entire time that's been weighing us down, polluting us, making us think bad. We'll change our diets. We won't have any choice. We'll stop using all different kinds of chemicals, and we're going to switch to other different things for food production.
And all of this because of the nature of the breakdown that we're going to go through, it's going to be really rough. At some point in here is the point of maximum risk and maximum danger, right? Risk and danger. That's going to be when the Commis, the deep state, the Kazari and Mafia totally freaks out. They're getting there, all right?
It would be good for us, all of us humans, if we had the I'm hoping if we had the cookie crumble approach, right? Because when you put the cookie in the milk and you dip it too long and then you pull it out, starts crumbling at the edges and falling in. If we have that, then we'll see the deep state fall away in small groups, individuals and so on. So Fauchi gets arrested and then somebody else and somebody else and somebody else. The other way it could go would be that the deep state pulls like a Hitler and the bunker kind of thing, where they consolidate all their power and try and duke it out with the rest of the planet.
Now that we all know what the fuck is going on and all the normies are with us. That's why this is entitled Mass, okay? Because we've got the mass now, all right? So there is no more our democracy of these little brittle, fragile mobs running through the street, tearing down statues. Those days are gone.
The deep state cannot engender that anymore. Now that we're into the financial crash, they're not going to be able to get BLM to do squat because there ain't money for that. Pretty soon, they'll keep funding Antifa as long as they possibly can, okay? But even now that funding is dropping off and things are going to get real serious for Antifa and these people going forward as we get into this period of time here, there will be a natural reduction of accommodation. So you have to understand that going forward, okay?
And that natural reduction of accommodation is between individuals.
I'll put it at a personal level. I'm an old man. I got all kinds of shit I've got to do every day. If you get in my way and add to my chores, I'm not going to be very friendly, right? If you're annoying me as I'm going into the grocery store and I've got my list of stuff and I'm worried about whether or not I can find this and all these other issues and concerns, I'm not going to be very receptive.
If you come on up and try and make me do something now, if you come on up and request money, you're in distress or whatever, I'm not going to come unglued on you. But if you come up as an official dumb and you're going to be doing shit towards me, you're going to get a very, very bad reception. And so Antifa thinks they are official to them. If you note in all of their language, they've been told by the Democrats that they are officialdom, that they're going to be the shock troops, they're going to be the brown Shirts, they're going to end up becoming the Gestapo. Well, that shit ain't going to happen.
But they think that. So Antifa is pissed at me now, personally, because I said trans is a disease. It's a mental illness, fascist disease imposed on another munchausens by proxy, ICD ten, code F 68 one. And they don't like me saying facts that are true about this situation. And so Antifa, personally, those guys are pissed at me.
I got a bunch of transactivists that have destroyed my Twitter account. I think they've got some of those blocks or strikes or whatever all racked up. So as soon as Twitter gets it back to me, if they ever do, they'll take it down, that kind of thing, right?
So these people have this idea that is very brittle, that has been given to them, it's inculcated to them. It is their point for existence that if you're not a fascist, then what are they? Because that's what their goal is, to be an antifascist. So they need to see a fascist somewhere so you can say, oh, there's that dog, that's that fucking fascist dog Gordon. Annoy him, right?
I'm no fascist, but without fascists, they have nothing. And that's their real problem. And so, you know, they tell you this in their name, right? Antifa. And and one of the things in the 1956 deal in the United States was the communists decided that they would call anybody that was anti communist a fascist now that we'd all been inculcated with the idea that fascism was the ultimate evil.
So anyway, so here we are in this mind stage game, the end stage of all of this. We're getting into the period of time where, as I say, in May, we're going to have the financial crisis really come home to roost with the federal government and it will be chaotic beyond our understanding at so many levels. It's not the end of the world. It may be the end of their financial system. Not necessarily.
The end of the dollar isn't the end of trade. It isn't the end of everything. Although we've got a lot of shit to do, it's not the end, okay? It's the end of the scripted play. And from this point on we're inventing the shit as we go along.
And so under those conditions, my way of thinking, that's pretty cool, right? Get back to some decent science, some stuff we've overlooked that's been hidden from us, get back to a sound money situation which is coming. So right now the Federal Reserve is trying to save the dollar. And you say, well, why would they want to do that? Why don't they save all the banks and stuff and keep everything stable?
And that's because they could save the banks, but we would lose the dollar and we'd have to go back to a treasury dollar, treasury issued dollar, which we're going to do anyway. That's their non understanding. Maybe some of them grasped that we will do that anyway. But if they did that and saved the structure and business and all of that, then some point relatively soon, say next year, we wouldn't have a dollar at all and there wouldn't be any need for anybody in the Federal Reserve or any of their control and all of that stuff, right? Then all that debt gets forgiven.
And so that's what I want to talk about here at this point, okay? So as we go along, you won't have to worry about student debt because the banks are going to drop off, right? It's the banks that you owe the debt to, not the federal government. Federal government can't seize the debt. It can't transfer that debt.
Go read the contract.
Once a certain point happens and the banks start failing, you don't have any student debt. So right now Silicon Valley Bank has collapsed and that and Signature Bank and a couple of the others are being escondid I think is the official term. They're trying to isolate the damage. Thing is, if you had a student loan to Silicon Valley Bank, you're free and clear. They canceled it for you.
Didn't have to take any action by biden because they went out of business.
When the creditor guy who issues the credit dies, who are you going to pay? Right? That's what we're coming into is that kind of a world is the death of all of the creditors, all the lending banks. So this is what they're trying to do. They're trying to actually save the dollar, the Federal Reserve, because they want to stay in business and they figure they can rebuild the system here in the US if only certain things can come into existence.
Now, those certain things, in my opinion, won't come into existence and they won't be able to rebuild. We'll go back to a treasury back dollar. And in my opinion, this is part of the plan is that we're going to get into a treasury issue dollar and do away with all the central banks and we'll UN central bank the whole planet. Now, I got to get moving. I got people coming over to do work.
We're trying to get our ourselves set up here for this coming period of really rough time. This is not something that you want to face when you're 70 years old. You have people that you're caring for that are infirm you're dependent on medications, all of these things, right? This is a very scary time for all of the boomers that are left. There's not really all of a lot of us, I don't think, anymore.
I'm in the half way, Mark. I was halfway in that generation. So it's rough. So I've got to do what I can do ahead of time. And so that's what we're doing here.
But any event, though. So a couple of things to note. You're going to hear people say, oh my God, you hear this all the time. And it's because people only have a very facile, very surface level understanding of the plan and what's going on in the war, right? The plan is just part of the war.
The war is going on around the plan. The plan is there to take us through all of this shit in the war. But in any event, though, so you'll hear people with only a facile understanding saying, oh no, trump's evil, he got the vaccines going and all of that kind of shit. None of that is true. He did a paper move that allowed everybody to see that the vaccines were in existence.
They'd been in existence since 2018. They've been working on the fucker since 2014. And he just exposed it. So they had to bring it out and they couldn't delay it for ten years and kill off 465,000,000 people on the planet as it is. They've killed 7 million with this disease.
But that's not very bad relative to the total overall population of the planet, right? We cut their ability to do shit way down. So we had a major victory that way. So in my opinion, Operation Warp Speed was a genius move. And you can.
Debate me about it, but you're wrong. So anyway, so something else these people are wrong about are Trump's cities. Okay? So you hear Trump talking about we're going to build 15 cities right in, in the US. And, and he wants to build 15 cities here.
Well, you got to understand what's going on. We are in a period, just like I said, 1923. We're in a period that's analogous to the Great Depression. And we're coming into the greatest depression of ever time, right. As the, as the Federal Reserve and the central bank systems die, this is the greatest depression ever that we're coming into.
In order to get out of this, we're going to use some of the same tools that we got used to get out of the other depression in the 1930s. Only we're not going to back stop them with the Federal Reserve. We're going to support them and create them with free money. Okay? Free money is where you don't owe any money to anybody in the form of interest just to spend that money.
So if I spend a dollar, the Federal Reserve takes a slice out of all these fucking transactions. And so in free money, you know, free society money, you don't have that. You get 100% of the value out of that money. Not ninety eight cents or now they've got ninety eight cents of the dollar that they're raking off in their corrupt system and you get two cent out of every dollar that you receive. Ain't fair, dudes.
And so we're going to go back to a constitutional or free money in a free money system. We still have the issues of the float through the system, how fast it moves from person to person to person. This is what a depression is. It is the depression of the flow of money through the populace because people don't have work, people aren't willing to spend, et cetera, et cetera, right? And so the plans to get out of that were very effectively we've had them for years.
We understand what they are. They worked them in the 1930s only. It was the Federal Reserve at that point that was supporting them all. Now we're going to support them with legitimate fair dollars, which will go ever so much further because the Federal Reserve won't be raking off their corrupt percentage. Right?
These are parasites. The Federal Reserve, the Kazarean Mafia, the deep state. They are parasites. And so right now, all right, so when Trump cities are built, this is the modern day equivalent of the CCC and the WPA here in the United States, the Works Progress Administration, or Work Projects Administration, it had two names. It Morphed over in the middle.
And the CCC was the Civilian Construction Corps. We will do something similar to mobilize the populace of the United States and get us out of this Great Depression, which will then cure the depression in the rest of the republics and the thing we will do will be Trump's cities. Whatever that project is going to be named, they won't be these 15 minutes cities. All right? I know this.
I know this because of Trump's I won't say him personally, but because of the Trump people, because of their fascination with some brilliant early 1930s and 40s architectural influencers, okay? One of them was not an architect, that's Buckminster Fuller. But these, okay? So within Trump's inner circle are people that are fascinated by this particular time in our history, and they have a particular vision. And that that vision is going to be expressed as these 15 cities or however many.
We're going to build these giant not giant, but great cities across the United States. And they'll do it for specific purposes. But one of the purposes is a works progress kind of thing to employ people and to get the flow moving, right? To start distributing the newly created treasury dollars and get moving in things again. And the federal government is going to be upended, okay?
So the federal government, with the death of the Biden regime, is going to totally transform. I expect, personally, in my opinion, that much of the land that is nominally owned by the federal government will be set free to the populace again in some manner. I don't think it will be returned to their original owners or any of that kind of shit because it's too long and there's too much involvement there, right, but that will happen. And that will provide people with new homesteads, new opportunities, new mines. We could do a lot of mining in the United States and deep oil drilling.
I expect we're going to get rid of coal to some degree over, like, the next two decades and concentrate on these vast quantities of natural gas and oil that we're going to discover here. They just discovered in, I think it's Saudi Arabia and Iran right here at the tip of the peninsula. Underneath, there, umpteen, trillion gallons of natural gas, enough natural gas to keep Germany happy for a few hundred years, that kind of thing. So there's vast quantities of energy. We just need to get at them and get moving.
And we'll start doing deep oil well projects here in the US. That will employ people, get us moving, get us cheaper energy, et cetera. The more you can lower the cost of energy, the more you can boost the value of your social order. That's a fact. So there's all these little truisms that you can count on, right?
Some of the truisms that we can count on functioning are showing up right now. And so, like, we had this Silicon Valley bank. They had, I think, nominal assets of 4.3 billion or trillion, doesn't matter 4.3, but they had 1.9 in hard debt that couldn't be satisfied because they didn't have the flow. So it put the rest of this, which was all nominal and notional on paper, at risk and the whole thing went down. So there may be student debt attached to this.
If so, if you've got student debt there, it's canceled because that bank doesn't exist and they cannot legally transfer student debt. Go read the fucking contract. Okay? So now other things that are occurring that are also baked into the cake, that are also factual. Most of the colleges in california and many of them here in my state, washington, and many of them in oregon and a lot of the other states in the united states, but with california leading the pac, so to speak, are now running at at what they is called a plus ratio.
Okay? So you have a college that maybe that college has say they're going to have 26,000 students there. These colleges are in A plus ratio. They will have more than that, 26,000 students in faculty and staff. But it's mainly staff.
It's mainly administrators. So there are colleges now that will have a ratio of faculty to students that is appropriate. And so maybe they've got, I don't know, maybe they've got 6000 faculty. Okay? So they have small classes, but they might have 27,000 administrative staff.
So we have an inverted pyramid here where the cost of the college on the student is massively weighted in administrative staff that does nothing to add to the value of the education. So the administrative staff, if you look at the colleges, they're not even good janitors because they're not even really cleaning up and they're making all kinds of money. Many of them I won't even go into the detail. But anyway, so the college structure, the academic structure of the United States is going to crash. It's going to crash as part of that point in the Biden regime here, starting in May, because all of the colleges do all their funding and planning through summer in their off period, right?
And so we're there now, and we'll see the crash of all these colleges this year. Now, a lot of them have like, endowments and they have big funds, but that's going to go away, okay? The colleges are going to be in the same situation as the banks here because the colleges, with their endowments, they think they've got billions of dollars set aside, all of this. But when they go and look at it, that billions of dollars is off in some shit that won't ever be able to be recovered. People right now that had invested in China over these last couple of years can't get their dollars out.
They can't retrieve their money in a meaningful fashion from the Chinese economy. And that's what's going to happen to our banks. They may have a billion dollars in an endowment that was created by so and so. They put that into a bank, which then invested it in all this, you know, EDI shit, whatever the hell they call that, right? The social investment, investing and so on.
And they won't be able to get the money out. The endowment won't be able to sell those bonds, they won't be able to do whatever the fuck and that college won't get that money and they won't be able to call it due. And so their staff will walk away. Just like in 123 with my relatives that worked, had worked in the academic college system in, in Germany, right? And so you'll get to the point where colleges are going to collapse because the staffs are going to walk away.
They and the professors and stuff are going to walk away too. The professors, I think, will walk away first because they'll be smarter and they'll have more options. But that's going to be happening here this year and this summer. We're going to be seeing that this summer anyway. So this is the mass of the population is now with or against the globalists.
It's now waking up. We're in a situation where that mass does not wake up at the same time them all the way through it. And so we're going to have all kinds of people waking up for years after we get through the summer. They're going to look around and say, well, what the fuck happened back there? And you're going to have to say, well, look, dude, we all knew this shit was going on, but we thought you knew it too, so we didn't bother to tell you.
But this is what was going on. So now I'm very optimistic. We're at the point of change. We can invent the future that we want to see, we can build that future. We don't have to be hamstrung by the federal government and their kazari and mafia deep state bullshit stuff.
Going forward, you're going to see mass amounts of change. We're in the change period now. We're in that part of the big ugly where we've been bubbling along and now we're going to go up and then it'll come down and go like that. And so we're in this area up in here where all of the stuff escalates. It goes very rapidly and then by the time we get into May so there's summer and then summer and fall.
It's going to fall, it will drop. It'll get a little bit better emotionally for us because we'll see some positive change by fall. This could be hellacious summer, guys. And you need to get your summer, use your summer period because of the weather, because they've been lying to you. We're getting into another cold spell.
I mean, lots of snow in Sweden and lots of snow in Alaska, California, around here it's fucking cold. I got the heat going. It's 40 just now, 51 degrees in here anyway, though. So you've got to use your summer this year, not for rioting and shit, right? There'll be a lot of that.
They'll try and get antifa out in the streets and their money will run out and eventually antifa will say, fuck this, dude. I got to get my drugs, that kind of shit, or I got to go do my tranny thing. But anyway, you've got to use this summer to get ready for next year because next year is going to be really tough, both economically and all this as we get organized. Now, we can get organized and move fairly fast, but it takes a while for it to spread through it takes a while for the flow to get moving and to spread through the population. So things we do this summer won't necessarily show up into the population economically until this time next year.
Bear that in mind. There's this Lag time and we've got to live through it. I've got all kinds of projects, I've got all kinds of work I've got to get done and this sort of thing. So I'm going to be busy, right? And I'm going to support my local community as much as I can, engaging people.
That's what I've got to do here is I've got some people showing up to do work here. I get the work. I'm 70 years old. I don't like lifting in heaven shit all day. And so people get work, they get money, and it spreads out, right?
And I get this stuff done and doesn't drive me crazy, but that's where we're at. Oh, by the way, the Pure Sleep guys have a sugarless version. So if you're dealing with cancer, no sugar in it. They want to go check that out. Really does help in this period of time to be able to sleep well.
And like I say, I got to go this one's long enough. Sorry about the Lag time, right? I've had a lot of stuff break down. We've had a lot of issues here. I'm trying to get prepared for that next year.
I'm trying to use this period of time and my ability to see things ahead, to do things that I may do now such that I don't suffer quite as much later on. And that's my advice generally going forward. If you can do it now, do it now, right?
I guess that's it. The mass of the people are with us, but not all the normies are going to wake up at the same time. So we've got the mass of the people awakened to a certain degree around a certain point. Now we're going to see that mass turn and look and see that January 6 was 100% bullshit. We'll see that all this stuff is 100% bullshit.
So that the mass that's awake to that will draw more and more and more. So we're in a period where the Great awakening will rush, it will quicken, and that's what's going to scare the shit out of all of the deep state, all the Falky fuckers, all of these kind of guys, right? They will see the retribution coming to them and they will be trembling. And you'll see it in their faces. They'll be stupid and they'll still get out in public and you'll see it in their faces anyway.
So take care. Do what you can. Be supportive of your fellow humans. You're going to need them later on as we go forward. And I believe sometime in summer, probably the very end of summer, august, September or so, on the last gasp of the deep state will be the revealing of the disclosure.
Space aliens and all of that shit. Okay? So kind of like if you got issues with that, if you've got that Xenophobia, which is built into all of us, get a grip on it now because it'll be facing you this year. Personally, I think, hey, this is cool. A couple of years from now, I'm going to have my floaty RV and I'll be floating over float over a lake in the hills up here and fish and get a trout and that kind of stuff.
Life will be good because we will have paid for it. We will have come through all of this shit. So anyway, that's it. I'll make these as I can, but it's going to be very infrequent. Basically now with one vehicle down, I'm using the other one.
So I'm going to be more audio available than video, especially. Damn cold out here. But anyway, guys, you're in the mass. The mass is here. And the movement of the moment is being pushed and created by that mass as everybody turns and points and says, hey, you fuckers, we don't like that shit.
The number-one best-selling pioneer of "fratire" and a leading evolutionary psychologist team up to create the dating book for guys. Whether they conducted their research in life or in the lab, experts Tucker Max and Dr. Geoffrey Miller have spent the last 20-plus years learning what women really want from their men, why they want it, and how men can deliver those qualities. The short answer: Become the best version of yourself possible, then show it off. It sounds simple, but it's not. If it were, Tinder would just be the stuff you use to start a fire.

Through their website and podcasts, Max and Miller have already helped over one million guys take their first steps toward Miss Right. They have collected all of their findings in Mate, an evidence-driven, seriously funny playbook that will teach you to become a more sexually attractive and romantically successful man, the right way: No "seduction techniques" No moralizing No bullshit Just honest, straightforward talk about the most ethical, effective way to pursue the win-win relationships you want with the women who are best for you. Much of what they've discovered will surprise you, some of it will not, but all of it is important and often misunderstood. So listen up, and stop being stupid!

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.
Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.
This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.
Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere
Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.
Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.
Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.
The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.
In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you.

Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook: How to Tell Your Story in a Noisy Social World
By Gary Vaynerchuk (Author)
New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.
From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.
The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.
From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.
Tesla's main source of inspiration. Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice
Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa. TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.
How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High
The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.
The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.
Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."
The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.
Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.
Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.
The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal
In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.
Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.
At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.
2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.
In this pathbreaking work, Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky show that, contrary to the usual image of the news media as cantankerous, obstinate, and ubiquitous in their search for truth and defense of justice, in their actual practice they defend the economic, social, and political agendas of the privileged groups that dominate domestic society, the state, and the global order.
Based on a series of case studies—including the media’s dichotomous treatment of “worthy” versus “unworthy” victims, “legitimizing” and “meaningless” Third World elections, and devastating critiques of media coverage of the U.S. wars against Indochina—Herman and Chomsky draw on decades of criticism and research to propose a Propaganda Model to explain the media’s behavior and performance.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.
Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth. Aliens? Former earthlings? Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet? Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies. Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed. Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible. The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.
Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.
This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.
Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":
Tensegrity
Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.
Vector Equilibrium (VE)
The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.
Closest Packing of Spheres
Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.
To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.
Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:
Biosphere :
- Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
- He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
- One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.
It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

Noosphere :
- The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
- Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
- In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
- The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.
Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.
It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.
Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.
A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.
William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.
Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.
First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.
All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.
At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.
Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:
- Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
- Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
- Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
- Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.
In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.
Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.
The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.
The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.
Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.
With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.
One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.
The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.
- The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
- Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
- The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
- The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
- The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
- The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.
The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.
The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.
This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.
Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.
This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.
Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.
The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.
The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.
