We explored the possible ways of enhancing hemisphere efflourescence via the virus-information field connection, telepathy etc., and then discussed the destabilising influence of the Reformation, with lasting effects to this day.
Below are the links for what we explored in our discussion:

Mass Extinctions, Evolutionary Leaps, and the Virus-Information Connection

We're currently writing a book titled "Mass extinction, evolutionary leap and the virus-information connection". It is a kind of follow-up to "Earth changes and the human-cosmic connection", in the sense that: 1/ it zooms out from (current) Earth changes to cyclical mass extinction (and the...

Order Out of Chaos

How can anybody be sure of anything in this day and time when the world seems to have gone mad and we find ourselves collectively in the position of the hero/heroine of the horror movie who hears a noise. Indeed, the audience can see that the...

The Reformation: Martin Luther’s Pathological War

Hi all, about a year ago, I did some research on Martin Luther and the reformation, which kind of sat in a file but which I'd like to share now. I tried to clean it up, but it's still a bit redundant and long! Apologies. I thought it's worth sharing anyway because it might give some hints and...

Puritans Gone Wild! The Hidden Yankee History of Woke SJWs

Moralistic busybodies. They've made a comeback in recent years. It's understandable. They're an American tradition, after all. 'Totalitarian theocracy' is a phrase more commonly associated with Saudi Arabia or ISIS today, but some of the earliest...

Albion's Seed and much more

I recently began reading a book entitled "Albion's Seed: Four British Folkways in America" by David Hackett Fischer. My original intention was just to get a better background on immigrants to America as a possible help to my genealogy hobby, but I got a lot more than that. Albion's Seed: Four...

Hi everyone,

The Am-EU group finishes chapters 6 & 7 of Michael Prescott's Life & Afterlife. The video and audio of the meeting will be posted at a later date.

Various supernatural phenomena is detailed with science to back it, with some being so convincing that it leaves no room for chance. Materialist scientists are always reaching into their magic hats trying to disprove them in some way--even going as far as burying their head in it even if proof proves to be conclusive! There's so much to digest in just these two chapters and is so varied in its topic that I sometimes forget that this is about the afterlife at its core.

I've attached the mind map below in both PNG & PDF form. For readability, I've also printed the mind map in bulleted form:

Chapter 6: NDEs throughout History
  • Accounts far back, in various times in history, and across cultures also describe this vapor forming after a person passes away. This vapor and the physical body are connected by a vaporous cord. The vapor body gradually gets larger over time, and at some point, the cord disappears.
    • Egyptians believed that each person is born with a "ka", or a spirit double, following the individual like a shadow.
    • Death, burial, afterlife, and ghosts are well-documented in Sumerian, Babylonian, and Assyrian lore.
  • The Tibetan Book of the Dead writes about the bardo of dying transitioning to the bardo of becoming, detailing the states from life to afterlife. These experiences have many parallels to NDEs, such as tunnels and being able to see the living, but unable to communicate with them.
  • (Bluefyre): The Cs mention that the bases are 3rd, 4th, and 5th density. 5th density was surprising. Can they manipulate those in 5D? We know they can't interfere as the soul goes through the silver cord post-death.
    • (Cassandra): Could this be related to soldiers being KIA & reanimated somehow?
    • (Luis): In the Santeria religion, they practice witchcraft where they commune and ask spirits to do their work. Followers are taught after they die, they will continue to help their organization in the spirit world.
    • (Bluefyre): Need to be careful--traumatic deaths can lead to disorientation in the afterlife process.
  • An account by Kalima, a woman from 19th century Hawaii detailed her NDE where she met many deceased people she knew. She was so full of joy and didn't want to go back to her body, which was not as vivacious as the one she inhabited during her NDE. She was ordered to go back, and she has regretted going back to her physical body for the rest of her life.
  • Those who shared their NDE with others and shamans were instrumental in shaping some religious traditions.
    • Shamans have used meditation, hallucinogens, and fasting to enter vision quests where their experiences aligned very well with NDEs. Some straight up experienced NDEs while suffering from serious illnesses.
  • There could be some overlap between OBEs and historical accounts of individuals spirited away to strange realms filled with various entities such as elves, fairies, and leprechauns. These bare resemblance to UFO lore--i.e. "little green men" or grays.
    • In John Mack's book, Abduction, abductees report that their OBE begins with a humming sensation, then floating above the bed. They were able to pass through walls, go past roofs. Aliens were sometimes perceived as luminous beings with telepathy.

Chapter 7: How Is It Possible?
  • There's a marked difference between "anesthesia awareness", which is partial awareness of one's surroundings due to inadequate sedation, and NDEs.
    • A 15 year old boy experienced both. In the latter, he described his anxious ordeal being operated on, while the latter was a full-blown OBE that felt much more pleasant.
  • There's a lot of skepticism regarding Sam Parnia's study that measured brain activity of those being given CPR after heart failure. The author notes that these kinds of studies provide no definite neurological explanation for NDEs. This is partly due to a small sample size and having no clear association between the brain waves and conscious activity.
    • (Pecha): A recent article describes Jimo Borjigin study of brain activity after patients were let go of their life support. Borjigin and researchrs found huge gamma wave activity and activation of the posterior cortical hot zone, which is said to be crucial for conscious processing: The new science of death: ‘There’s something happening in the brain that makes no sense’ (The Guardian)
      • (Breo): "A new study has identified a specific brain circuit centered in the periaqueductal gray that is linked to spiritual acceptance and religiosity.": Brain Circuit for Spirituality Identified
      • (Cassandra): Studies of the limbic system point to some interface with the spiritual world in an area in the body or brain.
        • (Bluefyre): In the Cs session, they mentioned that the soul interfaces with the neural system--perhaps it is not one area, but rather a system.
  • In Ganzfield tests, subjects are relaxed into a semi-trance, with their eyes covered, and wore headphones playing "pink noise". In another room, a tester concentrates mentally on sending one of four, randomly selected images to the subject. The results were statistically significant, showing great evidence towards the existence of ESP.
    • Meta-analysis of Ganzfield test studies from 1974 to 2010 shows a whopping 13 billion trillion to 1 odds against chance.
    • The success rate increases based on one's relationship to another. 37% for those emotionally close to one another, 43.55% for parents & children, and 71.4% among siblings.
  • There is a type of remote viewing coined by Stephan A. Schwartz called "psychic archaeology" where psychics are used to find ancient sites & artifacts.
    • George McMullen found much success in finding ancient buried Ontario Indian villages with this technique. He was able to accurately direct archaeologists on where to dig.
    • Schwarz conducted a remote viewing study with 43 remote viewers in November 3, 2003 that aimed to predict where & how Saddam Hussein would be found. On December 13, he was captured and it closely matched the predictions.
      • Could project stargate still be in operation today?
  • Repeat winners of the lottery may point to evidence of ESP.
    • (Luis): PSI + lottery case in the Wave where Laura won the jackpot, which she used to build her pool. Some type of spirit guidance or precognition?
    • (Redrock12): He knew someone who won two jackpots within 6 months, but it didn't do the woman any good.
  • If there's evidence of living people able to get information outside of their physical senses, then it would make sense for the dying to be able to get information similarly. As the physical body diminishes, it gives credence to the idea that extrasensory perceptions would open up more.

General Notes
  • (Luis): There's a drought in central Mexico right now. The farmers there are having difficulty with their crops.
    • (Redrock12): There's also been no rain here in Saskatchewan.
  • (Luis): The last Cs session and remote viewers corroborate that there are good things that await in the future.
    • (Luis): WEF people are saying that they are in crisis since things are not going according to their plans regarding control of countries.
  • (Cassandra): There's an article about an ex-KGB talking about how something similar is happening in the USA: We Were Warned Decades Ago How America Would Be Overthrown via The Bezmenov Plan: The Four Stages Of Communist Subversion: 1) Demoralization, 2) Disorientation, 3) Crisis, and 4) Normalization
  • (Breo): Prayer uplifts the mental landscape in addition to physical well-being.
    • (Luis): The book, You Are the Placebo, by Joe Dispenza talks about how true belief & true prayer can change one's gene expression.
  • (Bluefyre): In an account of an NDE, the person didn't want to go back. However, they showed him that his life would be much worse if he didn't learn the lessons in the current life.
  • (Bluefyre): Life in 3D is hard oftentimes. She loves her dog very much, but sometimes humans don't get that kind of care from creation.
    • (whitecoast): "Walk in beauty". The purpose is to be in harmony with everything else. Maybe this is how we can be seen in that same way.
  • (Cassandra): Like animals moving to 3D, OPs are also moving forward at this juncture.
  • (Breo): In the hospice, there are accounts of children seeing grays.

For Next Meeting - April 14th, 2024
For this Sunday, the readings will be on chapters 8, 9, and 10 of Life & Afterlife for the next reading workshop. See y'alls!
