Tools to 17 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: Access Truth The Secret Wisdom of Kucko Con Part three, 18 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: I am going to read to you the third chapter 19 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: from the book I wrote in two thousand and eight. 20 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: Called The Secret Wisdom of Kuko Khan enter Dimensional Contact 21 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: in a Holo Sentient Universe. This is the book that 22 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: deals with aliens, spirits, cryptids, esp and you. And I'm 23 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: not going to spend the whole podcast on this. In fact, 24 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: this is one of the shorter chapters. After that, I 25 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: have a just a variety of weird stuff, random stuff 26 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: that I want to talk about. Is that okay with you? 27 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: I bet it is. After all, you're the one listening 28 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 1: to a show called Strange Things. I will not lead 29 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 1: you astray, I promise. Sometimes I just make notes about 30 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: things I find interesting and I say, someday I'll talk 31 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,679 Speaker 1: about that on the show. Well, this looks like it 32 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: might be one of those days. Also, if you are 33 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: a new listener, and we're fortunate because we have new 34 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 1: listeners joining us all the time, and maybe this is 35 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: the first podcast you've listened to, So here is what 36 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: I'm doing. Occasionally I will read a chapter from this 37 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: book I wrote in two thousand and eight called The 38 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: Secret Wisdom of Kugo Kan And again it doesn't take 39 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: up the whole show. But what I figure is I 40 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: will do this from time to time, and then eventually 41 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: I'll have read the whole book on this show, and 42 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: then I can sew all the pieces together, and i'll 43 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: have an audio book that I've read. So that's what's 44 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: going on here right now, and therefore this particular chapter 45 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: chapter three now, and I do want to point out 46 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: because I wrote this in two thousand and eight, I mean, 47 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: there may be things that I would write differently or 48 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: phrase differently nowadays if I if I wrote it, I 49 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: don't know. Probably I haven't read this in a while, 50 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: so we're kind of going through this together. So just 51 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: keep that in mind in case I say something horribly offensive. Okay, 52 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: let's get to chapter three of the Secret Wisdom of Caucalcan, 53 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: which is called Tools to Access Truth. All right, now, 54 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: I'm going to do it officially ready, Chapter three, Tools 55 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: to Access Truth. Albert Einstein said, quote the most important 56 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,359 Speaker 1: decision we make is whether we believe we live in 57 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: a friendly or a hostile universe. End quote. From that, 58 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: perhaps we can extrapolate an even more substantive point. You 59 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: must decide whether or not you are a mere helpless 60 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: doll at the whims of some powerful and personal force, 61 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: or you are an active, engaging participant in your destiny 62 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: able to shape it to your liking. The dilemma of 63 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: free will versus determinism has been debated by philosophers for centuries, 64 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: but in practicality a personal level, the problem is solved 65 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: for you if there are numerous predetermined outcomes for you, 66 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: yet you are able to choose which one to experience 67 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: most vividly. If you believe you are solely a ragdall 68 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: batted around by impervious powers, then you may as well 69 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: lie down and die today. However, we know empirically that 70 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: you can pick yourself up and choose to develop. Therefore, 71 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: if you choose to engage the universe around you, it's 72 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: natural to seek assistance. The power structure of society places 73 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: psychological boundaries on us from birth, limiting what we think 74 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: we can achieve. Every time a baby pops forth into 75 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: the world, everyone assumes it will most likely grow up 76 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 1: to be a conditioned dummy. After all, most of us 77 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: are merely average. That's why it's the average. Therefore, most 78 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: people treat you like a dummy unless and until you 79 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: prove otherwise. The easiest way to begin our process of 80 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,799 Speaker 1: overcoming those societal boundaries is with the assistance of tools 81 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: temporary crutches that can gradually prove the possible to you, 82 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: allowing you to transcend the borders so distinctly imposed. There 83 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: is a true gut instinct deep within you, molded by 84 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: millions of years, that responds to all stimuli around you. 85 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: In the general sense, it functions as a binary code 86 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: relaxing and tensing. Everything you encounter, be it physical or mental, 87 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: produces some gradient of contraction or relaxation. On a deep level, 88 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: you produce a vibration around you, composed of an organic 89 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: morse code, your organs clenching and releasing, sometimes many times 90 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: per second. Unfortunately, we cannot always be aware of these signals. 91 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: Since we are taught from birth to function within the 92 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: theater of culture, you are supposed to look, speak, and 93 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: behave in a certain way, depending on the culture. Some 94 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: of the requirements are beneficial for the collective civilization and 95 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: some are not. Regardless, a good deal of your attention 96 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: is focused upon those standards instead of acknowledging how you 97 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: feel within. Simple tools that help express how you fill 98 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: within are called dowsing instruments. Your body is an antenna 99 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: for all the activity around it. A dowsing instrument is 100 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: a simple device that takes a tiny reaction within your 101 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: body and magnifies it into a more visible and dramatic expression. 102 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: The simplest type of dowsing tool is a rod or pendulum. 103 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: There are various methods of dowsing, but most rods are 104 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: l shaped wires, and one held in each hand, swings 105 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: to and fro in response to a question. Pendulums can 106 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: be as simple as a fishing sinker tied to a 107 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: bit of wire hanging from the fingers. Detailed info on 108 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: these techniques and developing telekinetic ability with the homemade energy 109 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: will are in my book called How to Hunt Ghosts. 110 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: So I won't get into the specifics of how to 111 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: dows here. I bring this all up for a greater point. 112 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: Regardless of how one chooses to dows the dowsing process 113 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: is extremely personal, customized by the dowser. Successful dowsing begins 114 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: with the dowser first deciding what is to be sought 115 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: and gained from the dowsing, and then telling the dowsing 116 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: tool how to respond. This is often called programming. So 117 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: for example, let's say an old timer wants to find 118 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: water with a forked stick, well, he must decide or 119 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: tell the stick what to do when water is encountered, 120 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: and then he relaxes and strolls along until the stick responds. Now, 121 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: actually the stick itself is not necessarily responding, but his 122 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: body is responding. Since he inherently psychically knows where the 123 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: water is, they cannot consciously access the information. The stick 124 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: allows him to tap into his subconscious ability. If you 125 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: are dowsing with the pendulum to find the location of 126 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: your lost car keys, you would tell the pendulum to 127 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: swing clockwise for yes and counterclockwise for no. Then you 128 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: would proceed to ask the pendulum are they in my garage? 129 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: Are they in my bedroom? Until you get an affirmative response. 130 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: You would then continue to break it down to the 131 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: right area. Another person might apply the exact same technique, 132 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: but tell the pendulum to swing counter clockwise for yes 133 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: and clockwise for no. As you can see, in the 134 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: process of dowsing, what is important is the programming of 135 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: the instrument, deciding how psychic knowledge from the wormhole brain 136 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: should be expressed by a visible tool. This is the 137 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: basis for how tools work. In this sense, tools are 138 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: ultimately the devices that allow us to more easily document 139 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: our interactions with the environment. Okay, I'm going to stop 140 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: right there. Environment. We'll pick it up when I come 141 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: back from the break. And you know, that's one of 142 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: the things that I think is always intriguing about dowsing 143 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 1: is that, oftentimes, especially in like show business, it's been 144 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: presented as if the dowsing device has some kind of power. 145 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: The stick has a spirit in it that pools you somewhere. 146 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: The rods have a spirit react to the energy, the 147 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: pendulum has a spirit that's being controlled by exterior forces. 148 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: Even a Wigi board as a type of dowsing device, 149 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: and people believe the Wuigia board has a spirit and 150 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: it could be evil and you better stay away from it. 151 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: But I don't believe that's the case. I think these 152 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: are just tools. And as a matter of fact, if 153 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: you take two people who are having great success getting 154 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: messages from a wigia board and then you blindfold those people, 155 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the Wuigia board starts to speak gibberish. 156 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: So I think you see what I mean. It's tapping 157 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: in to the human perception more than acting as some 158 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: objective tool like we expect a scientific instrument to do, 159 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: which is why these things cannot be measured consistently and 160 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: calibrated consistently from a scientific point of view. Now, like 161 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: I say, we'll continue this in a minute, but I 162 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: want to remind you by the time you hear this, 163 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: I have no idea whether or not we will have 164 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: any more of the Buddhist own money, magnet and happiness 165 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: kits available.

Welcome back to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio 182 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. I'm your host, 183 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: Joshua B. Warren, the Wizard of Weird, beaming into your 184 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: wormhole brain from my studio and Sin City, Las Vegas, Nevada, 185 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: where every day is golden and every night is silver. 186 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: A giatato zoomme. Let's get back into the secret wisdom 187 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: of Kuko Kahn chapter three. Here it is okay, Here 188 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: we go. Are you ready? Here we go. Upon accepting 189 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: that dowsing is not about some strange physical interaction between 190 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: a tool and environment, such as a forked stick and 191 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: an underground stream, but the response of the body to 192 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: information streaming from the wormhole brain, you can reduce the 193 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: phenomenon to your individual ability. Science is based on things 194 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: that most humans have in common. As we explore deeper 195 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: and things are more individualized and unique, science does not apply. 196 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: That is why those consumed solely with science only understand 197 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: the densest crust of human experience. Here we take a 198 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: fascinating turn. Every item that is capable of receiving information 199 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: is also capable of projecting it. For example, if you 200 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: spin a magnet next to a coil of wire, the 201 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: wire produces electricity, it becomes a generator. But if you 202 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: apply electricity to the coil of wire the magnet spins, 203 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: it becomes a motor. A speaker can be reversed to 204 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: create a microphone, and a microphone reversed to create a speaker. 205 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: A large radio antenna can either stand passively to receive 206 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: signals from electricity in the air, or it can broadcast 207 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: electricity into the air so that other antennas will receive it. 208 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 1: One of the best examples of how broadcasting works is 209 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 1: the model of a swimming pool with a beach ball 210 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: floating at both ends. When a person taps the ball 211 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: at one end, ripples cross the water, and the ball 212 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: on the other end eventually bounces the same way. This 213 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: can be done on either end, back and forth, demonstrating 214 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 1: that either ball can be a sender or a receiver. 215 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: As with this example, you will find that all of 216 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: life's greatest mysteries are somehow exemplified by the small and 217 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: the small culminate in the large The motion of atoms 218 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: mimics the motion of star systems. Since you're a wormhole 219 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: brain can receive information useful for techniques like dowsing. It 220 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: is also capable of powerfully broadcasting data into the universe. 221 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: Just as change and variation is gathered and condensed, so 222 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: it is protected and projected and expanded. The idea that 223 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: your immensely strong wormhole brain can be properly focused to 224 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: send your desires into the ether, as primarily where dousing 225 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: tools transform into radionic tools. Radionic tools are divided into 226 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: various subjects, like psionics or psychatronics. I suggest you dig 227 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: into the specifics on your own. For that, I recommend 228 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: some of the books by Charles Kosamano, such as Psychic 229 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: Power and Psionic Power. But in a nutshell, think about 230 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: how your life, thoughts, and brain waves are shaped by 231 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: mere symbols. One of the best examples is cash. If 232 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 1: you're stranded in the desert with the pile of money, 233 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: it's virtually useless. Yet if you're in a city where 234 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 1: a vendor agrees the currency has some value, you can 235 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: trade it for goods. Another example, let's say someone called 236 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: you a dirty name, and you wanted to punch that person. 237 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: Now imagine the same scenario, except the person is wearing 238 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: a badge. You would most likely be less apt to 239 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 1: punch the badge wearer, since that symbol represents a list 240 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: of psychological implications that may or may not be accurate. 241 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: These very words I write are mere symbols, and yet 242 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: you are changing physically as you read them. Imagine how 243 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: your body would respond if I merely told you a 244 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: special loved one in your life had just died. Radionics 245 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: is the study and implementation of symbolic tools that stimulate 246 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: your mind to cause change in the universe. A part 247 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: of radionics is sacred geometry, dealing with the fact that 248 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: ancient cultures around the world used similar structures like pyramids 249 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: to influence the mind. To this day, in the United States, 250 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: we still have a pyramid on the dollar bill. However, 251 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 1: there has ever been an ancient pyramid found in the 252 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: United States. Some symbols are so ubiquitous throughout history that 253 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: they have defined mathematical staples. One mathematical ratio that constantly 254 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: crops up in ancient architecture, art, and in fact natural 255 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: designs is one to one point six one eight. This 256 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: is called the golden ratio or the golden mean. There 257 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: is something about that ratio that triggers a flow of 258 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: information from the human mind. Radionics devices use time proven 259 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 1: symbols to help you send your wishes into the universe. 260 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: This can be done through the usage of cool looking 261 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,959 Speaker 1: machines covered in knobs and coils, or in some cases, 262 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: by simple drawings of the machines. Yes, let me repeat that, 263 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 1: drawings of the machines. Imagine if you could heat up 264 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: a potato by drawing a microwave and putting the potato 265 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: on top of it. That doesn't work in the boundary 266 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: layer of reality, but radionics taps into the dimensional layer. 267 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 1: Basic radionics machines have plates where you can put a 268 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: sample to represent what you want to change, and then 269 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: some mechanism by which you change it. For example, one 270 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 1: radionics box I own has a small metal plate where 271 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,360 Speaker 1: I could place one of your hairs, and that hair 272 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: represents you. Next, I think about what I want to 273 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: happen to you while I turn a bunch of dials 274 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: one by one as I swing a pendulum over another plate, 275 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: stopping each dial where the pendulum indicates the dial should 276 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: stay and Once everything is in place, I leave the 277 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: entire machine as is, and eventually my wishes will come true. 278 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: Some call this a wishing machine, but don't forget the 279 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: whole machine can work if I simply draw it on 280 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: a paper. In some cases, therefore, it all doesn't even 281 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: have to be physically three D since it's not ultimately 282 00:20:55,440 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: operating on the physical three D level. The subject of 283 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: radionics to transition to the subject of magic and thought forms. 284 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: When it comes to tools, I have stressed that each 285 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: kind is ultimately connected to the same source, the wormhole brain. Frankly, 286 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: any tool that a human can create, including the most 287 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 1: complex computer, is still connected to the wormhole brain. Since 288 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: a brain created it, operates it, and interprets its feedback. Therefore, 289 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 1: if you want to get right down to the purest 290 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: form of tooling around both sensing the environment and sending 291 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: information into the environment to change it, it always boils 292 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 1: right back down to your wormhole brain. Magicians have always 293 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 1: known this, and that's why those folks eventually skip radionics, machines, 294 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: and magic wands and go right for pure visualization. Becoming 295 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 1: a magician is about gradually training yourself to deconstruct the 296 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: limitations of culture and reconnect with your true inner power. 297 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: It should be done in baby steps, So going through 298 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 1: dal and radionics, etc. First is a very wise and 299 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: effective way of transitioning from the resistance layer to the 300 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: dimensional layer. I don't think I need to say this, 301 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: but at last, when I write of magicians, I'm not 302 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 1: talking about illusionists to entertain I'm speaking of people who 303 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: perfect the art of affecting change in the universe according 304 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: to their will at a faster rate than it would 305 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 1: normally occur. Alister Crowley popularize the spelling of magic as 306 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: m agic k instead of magic to clarify that distinction. 307 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: So how exactly does magic work? Well, if there is 308 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: only one lesson you should take from this book, it 309 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: is this thoughts are real, tangible things affect all levels 310 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 1: of reality. Because we are distracted by the resistance layer, 311 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: we too often consider thoughts to be an energy on 312 00:22:55,960 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: the dimensional layer alone, and that could not be further 313 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: from the truth. Thoughts impact the resistance layer just as 314 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: much as the dimensional or boundary layers. However, thoughts do 315 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: not necessarily create instant change. They take time to resonate 316 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: through the environment. That's why it's exceptionally rare for someone 317 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: to be able to sit down and move a ping 318 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 1: pong ball instantly at will. On the other hand, thoughts 319 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: can move your body incredibly quickly given your body's proximity 320 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: to the thought. Each time you decide to move your 321 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: arm and your arm moves, you are witnessing a form 322 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: of telekinesis. Newtonian physicist and Newtonian physics tell us that 323 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: for every action there is an opposite but equal reaction. 324 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 1: But this cannot explain how you move your body with 325 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: a simple thought alone unless thoughts actually do possess physical power. 326 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 1: Indeed they do. Okay, I'm going to pause here now 327 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 1: and let's see when we come back. Oh yeah, there's 328 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: only like another couple of paragraphs left, and then I'll 329 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: finish this up. And then you know what. I was 330 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: listening to this woman who is an intuitive channeler, and 331 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: she has this special spirit guide, and she was being 332 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: interviewed on Coast to Coast AM and she she gave 333 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: this description of what happens when you die, and she 334 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 1: said something that seemed a little oddly familiar to me. 335 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: And then she said something else which is perhaps unsettling 336 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 1: or it could be comforting, but I'm not sure how 337 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: accurate it is. I'm going to share that with you, 338 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 1: and then we're just gonna get to some other weird 339 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: and interesting trivia and just some stuff that I've been 340 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 1: wanting to talk about. So I hope you've been enjoying 341 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: this reading so far of the Secret Wisdom of Couga. 342 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: Con will wrap that up, oh shortly. I am Joshua 343 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 1: pe Warren, and you're listening to Strange Things on the 344 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast am parin normal podcast network, 345 00:25:26,800 --> 00:26:02,959 Speaker 1: and I will be back after these important messages. Welcome 346 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 1: back to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to 347 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: coastam para normal podcast network. I'm your host, Joshua pe Warren, 348 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: and this is the show where the unusual becomes usual. Okay, 349 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: I'm about to finish up this reading from my book 350 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: I wrote in two thousand and eight, The Secret Wisdom 351 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: of Kuku Khan. And if you want to just go 352 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: ahead and download this whole book and read it, it's 353 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: available right now if you go to Joshua Pewarren dot 354 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 1: com and click the link to the Curiosity Shop. And 355 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: it doesn't cost very much either, all right, So I'm 356 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: finishing up the reading of chapter three. Each thought of 357 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: yours extends into the ocean of thoughts around it. A 358 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: week thought will quickly drop off and become diluted. A strong, 359 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: concentrated thought can be just as condensed and effective as 360 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: a bullet, though taking time to fashion a thought into 361 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: a self contained, penetrating vehicle to be fired into the 362 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 1: ether is an extremely significant task. These capsules of intention 363 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: are what we can call thought forms. A master magician 364 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:30,360 Speaker 1: knows how to quickly and efficiently create thought forms, then 365 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 1: fire them into the ether, producing change with great effectiveness. 366 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: Though a practicing apprentice magician will use tools, be they wands, candles, 367 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: voodoo dolls, radionics, machines, etc. To help visualize and focus 368 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 1: thought forms to be projected, a master magician needs no 369 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: tools other than seasoned, perfected imagination. Many cultures call a 370 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: person who has reached this level a wizard or which 371 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 1: I prefer to call practitioner, as a manifestor, and the 372 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: most apt is a master manifestor. These are people who 373 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: create their own reality, whatever that entails to some degree 374 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: each day. Can a master manifesto completely create whatever reality 375 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: he or she wants, of course, not for that, you 376 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: would need the biggest mind in the universe. There are 377 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 1: always limitations, since the power of your mind is up 378 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: against the universal mind or the collective mind of those 379 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 1: around you. For example, no matter how proficient you are 380 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: at manifestation, you will eventually die from the resistance layer 381 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: or the physical world. This is due to a mind 382 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: far more powerful than yours alone. Who am I talking about? God? 383 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: God is not a particular, isolated sentient being. God is 384 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: the collective creation. The entire universe is a moving, conscious, 385 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: active power, and since we are each part of the collective, 386 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 1: whatever abilities you possess are also possessed by the universe. 387 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: Since you are conscious, the universe is also conscious. Since 388 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: you move and decide, the universe also moves and decides. 389 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: The design of the universe is the most efficient design 390 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: energies moving via the path of least resistance. That is 391 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: why characteristics of your cells and atoms such as orbits, 392 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: are present and observable in the highest cycles of the universe. 393 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: Once again, the little represents the big and the big 394 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: represents the little. Of course, little and big are completely 395 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: relative terms. Hence the importance of Einstein's portrayal of relativity. 396 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: In our grasp of how all mechanisms work. Since the 397 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,479 Speaker 1: universe is conscious, if you are aware enough, you can 398 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: perceive the conscious intent and it will guide you on 399 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: the mo successful, happy course for your life. Ask and 400 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: ye shall receive is grounded in this philosophy. The asking 401 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: must be sincere, defined and persistent. The rate of reception 402 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: is determined by the mind or minds greater than yours. 403 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: But the request will eventually be fulfilled within those limitations. 404 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: Since the universe is a creator and you are a creation, 405 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: the ability to create is extended within you. You are 406 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: also a creator, and that sense the meaning of life 407 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: is to give life meaning. Every mirror in my house 408 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: has a piece of paper attached that says, what will 409 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: I create today? I suggest you attach such a reminder 410 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: to every mirror and your house as well. Over time 411 00:30:55,200 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: you may become a master magician, a master manifest r Okay, 412 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: So that is the end of chapter three of the 413 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: Secret Wisdom of Cocacon. You know what something I've been 414 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: doing more recently, because again I wrote this in two 415 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: thousand and eight. I also on mirrors around my house 416 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: I put a note or a sticker that says you 417 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: are manifesting, and that's it's a similar thing because it 418 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: reminds you that right now, whatever you're thinking is like 419 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: whether it's good or bad, you don't have a choice. 420 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: Whatever you're thinking, you're putting it out there, okay, and 421 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: it's it's gonna you know, so be careful what you're 422 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: putting out there. And you know, there are people who 423 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: talk about stuff like the law of attraction, and they say, 424 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 1: well that it doesn't make sense that like attracts like 425 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: because you know, you have magnets in the north pole 426 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: attracts the opposite. The north pole attracts a south pole, 427 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: you know, or with electricity, and the negative charge attracts 428 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: the positive charge. Opposites attract. Well, that doesn't apply to everything. 429 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: It certainly doesn't apply where humans are concerned. When it 430 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: comes to human relationships, people who are in long term relationships, 431 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: they don't stick together because they're so opposite. They have 432 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: enough in common that keeps them together. But look at 433 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: say gravity. The law of attraction is basically another form 434 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: of how gravity works. It's almost like a spiritual form 435 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: of gravity. You know. Gravity is about things, you know, 436 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: being like matter being attracted to itself, which creates form 437 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: and keeps everything from just flying apart. But let me 438 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: point out a couple of things before I get into 439 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 1: what this lady what she said she thinks happens when 440 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: you die. I know, when I read stuff like I've 441 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: been reading to you, there are people out there who 442 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: might say, this is fascinating, this is interesting. But I don't. 443 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: I don't believe this is gonna work for me. I don't. 444 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: I don't have enough faith. I don't have enough belief, 445 00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, And then they keep saying things like that, 446 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: and that's okay, Well, let me let me address this 447 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: for a second. It is true that faith is an 448 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: important part of making any positive progress in life. And 449 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 1: I say that because you know, some people might say that, well, 450 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: faith means I'm believing in something without any evidence, But 451 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: that's not what it means. Faith means that you realize 452 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: that you can't see the future directly. You just have 453 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: to imagine it. So in other words, like if you 454 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 1: keep doing the same thing that you're doing right now, 455 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: then nothing is going to change and progress for you 456 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: that you're in control of. Eventually external things will come in. 457 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: And you know, it's like you're either the master of 458 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: mind or mastered by mind. So if you don't, if 459 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 1: you don't change anything for yourself, then nothing's going to change. 460 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 1: And if it does change, it's probably going to change 461 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: in the way that you don't like because you're not 462 00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: participating in it. But what faith to mean is that 463 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: you're at a point where you you don't you know, 464 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: you acknowledge and this is hard to explain, but you 465 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: acknowledge that you can't see what tomorrow directly, but if 466 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: you imagine it, you take actions to help that happen. Okay, 467 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 1: That's what faith is. And sometimes you do things that 468 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: are really scary to test your faith, and most of 469 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: the time you'll find out that when you do that, 470 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: I mean, it actually works. And at some point I 471 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 1: might do a whole, big, long thing about faith when 472 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: I'm more prepared to talk about it articulately. But let 473 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: me specifically address belief though, because there are a lot 474 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 1: of misconceptions about like you have to believe in something 475 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: for it to work. Hogwash. Okay. In my book, and 476 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: you can download this from my curiosity shop called Finding 477 00:34:54,719 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 1: Your Magic, I talk about this idea here that that 478 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 1: there are people who think that belief is the key 479 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: to access magical results, and that is a mistake. And 480 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 1: some people think, if you just believe in something like that, 481 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: well that's naive. But belief is extremely overrated. What is 482 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:24,439 Speaker 1: you know, what's what's important. What's more important than belief perception. 483 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: And here's what I mean by that. Take an optical illusion. 484 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 1: I have one that I put in the book. I'm 485 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: looking at it right now. It's a picture and it 486 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: has these circles on it, and the circles look like 487 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 1: they're spinning. Now they're not. Okay, this is not a cartoon, 488 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: this is a still image. But I look at that 489 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: and the circles look like they're spinning. They look that 490 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: way because it's an optical illusion. Now I know they're 491 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,240 Speaker 1: not actually spinning. I do not believe they are spinning. 492 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 1: But when I see them, regardless of what I know, 493 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: regardless of what I believe, I see them this spinning. 494 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 1: And a lot of the tools that you can use 495 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: to whip your mind into shape have nothing to do 496 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: with whether or not you believe. These tools affect your 497 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 1: mind in a certain way. They affect your brain in 498 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 1: a certain way that's almost like a placebo kind of effect, 499 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: and and it makes it makes you. It forces you 500 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 1: to be in a mindset that manifests things, and in fact, 501 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: you also might be surprised. And I have let me 502 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 1: you know, I'm going to try to squeeze two or 503 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:38,839 Speaker 1: three interesting things in here. There's this guy he wrote 504 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 1: this book and uh, let's see, I think it was 505 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 1: eighteen ninety four. Does that sound right? Let me see here, Yeah, 506 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: eighteen ninety four. This guy named Orson Sweet Martin. He 507 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 1: wrote this book called Pushing to the Front, which has 508 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 1: been admired by a lot of famous figures throughout history. 509 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 1: You know, Teddy Roosevelt and like all you know, all 510 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 1: these you have these big, big figures and uh, and 511 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:08,000 Speaker 1: he pointed out something that I want to point out 512 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,399 Speaker 1: to you when we come back from this book that's 513 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: been around since eighteen ninety four, that I think is 514 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:19,319 Speaker 1: beneficial to just about everybody. And then I'll finally get 515 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: into like like what this woman said might happen when 516 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: you die, And then I've got at least one or 517 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 1: two other bits of trivia that I want to get into. 518 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: You know, I'm just I'm just kind of exploring, letting 519 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: my mind wander here.

Welcome back to the 524 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 1: final segment of this edition of Strange Things on the 525 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: iHeart Radio and Coast to Coast am para Normal Podcast Network. 526 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: I'm your host, Joshua pe Warren. And in his eighteen 527 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: ninety four book called Pushing to the Front, which is 528 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: a long book Warrison Sweat Marden, he wrote, the secret 529 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: of life is to be ready for opportunity when it comes. 530 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: Says quote, there are no longer any chances for good men, 531 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: complained a youthful law student to Daniel Webster, and Daniel 532 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: Webster said there was always room at the top. The 533 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: author says, we look too high for things close by. 534 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 1: He's talking about opportunities where you are. He writes, a 535 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: Baltimore lady lost a valuable diamond bracelet at a ball 536 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 1: and supposed that it was stolen from the pocket of 537 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: her cloak. Years afterward, she washed the steps of the 538 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 1: Peabody Institute, pondering how to get money to buy food. 539 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: She cut up an old, worn out, ragged cloak to 540 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: make a hood when low, and the lining of the 541 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 1: cloak she discovered the diamond bracelet. During all her poverty, 542 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,800 Speaker 1: she was worth thirty five dollars but did not know it. 543 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 1: And then he tells this story, says, many of us 544 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 1: who think we are poor are rich, and opportunities if 545 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 1: we can only see them, and possibilities all about us, 546 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,399 Speaker 1: and faculties worth more than diamond bracelets. And our large 547 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 1: eastern cities. It has been found at least ninety four 548 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:23,360 Speaker 1: out of every hundred found their first fortunate home or 549 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,320 Speaker 1: near at hand, and in meeting common every day wants. 550 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: It is a sorry day for a young man who 551 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: cannot see opportunities where he is, but thinks he can 552 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: do better somewhere else. Some Brazilian shepherds organized a party 553 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 1: to go to California to dig gold and took a 554 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 1: handful of translucent pebbles along to play checkers with on 555 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: the voyage. After arriving in San Francisco, and after they 556 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 1: had thrown most of the pebbles away, they discovered that 557 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: they were diamonds. They hastened back to Brazil only to 558 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: find that the minds from which the pebbles had been 559 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: gathered had been taken up by other prospectors and sold 560 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: to the government. And he gives, you know, story after 561 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 1: story like this, And you know, that's one of the 562 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 1: things that I always try to tell people, like, if 563 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 1: you're trying to manifest, you know, the most important thing 564 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 1: to manifest is health, and it's also the hardest thing 565 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 1: to manifest because unfortunately we all have to break down 566 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 1: and die and you don't know what that process is 567 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 1: going to be like for each of us. But beyond health, yeah, 568 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 1: you want wealth, you want money, but you shouldn't always 569 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:38,839 Speaker 1: just try to manifest money directly. You should also think 570 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: about opportunities that might bring money to you. Sometimes the 571 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 1: most valuable thing you can manifest is an idea, an idea, 572 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 1: and even if it's if somebody else has had the 573 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:54,720 Speaker 1: same idea, maybe you can do it better regardless. Getting 574 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 1: back to death, I was listening recently, let's see on 575 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 1: March eighth of twenty twenty three to George Norri on 576 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 1: Coast to Coast AM interview Melissa Gates Perry. She is 577 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: an intuitive channel with a spirit guide named Erra Lamb 578 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 1: and she gives readings. Her site is her name Melissa 579 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: Gates Perry dot com Perry spelled pr ry. And she 580 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:25,280 Speaker 1: said at one point that when you die, that everyone, 581 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 1: no matter who you are, what you did, no matter 582 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 1: if you're a hitler or mother Teresa, everyone goes to 583 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,279 Speaker 1: the same place at first, which she describes as a 584 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 1: big lobby. And she said, you know, and I don't 585 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: want to put words in her mouth, but she was 586 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,840 Speaker 1: basically saying like, it literally looks like a big lobby 587 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: with like multiple floors and escalators and stairs, and you know, 588 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 1: a lot of activity going and everybody goes there to 589 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: kind of get sorted out. And it was weird because 590 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: when she said that, I cannot tell you how many 591 00:42:56,719 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: times I have had dream experiences. And I don't know 592 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 1: if their dreams or if I'm astrally projecting, but I 593 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 1: find myself in something that I would describe like that. 594 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: It's almost like a big shopping mall slash lobby environment 595 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: and there's a there are people going up and down, 596 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 1: and there's I mean, so she immediately had my attention 597 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,399 Speaker 1: when she said that that's the first stop. Everybody goes there. 598 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,359 Speaker 1: But then she went on to say, once you kind 599 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: of get sorted, then the next step is, and this 600 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: is when people talk about heaven and hell, that you 601 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 1: have to feel as your lesson. You have to feel 602 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 1: everything that you made other people feel as long as 603 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: that takes. So she said, if you're somebody like Hitler, 604 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,440 Speaker 1: you made so many people feel so bad, it's going 605 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 1: to be a long long time for you to make 606 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 1: it through all those people. And so I think you 607 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,240 Speaker 1: get the idea. It's like, you know, it's the karma 608 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,840 Speaker 1: you have to experience every every way you made somebody 609 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: else feel something all throughout your life. And uh, you know, 610 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: if you if you think about that for a second, 611 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,719 Speaker 1: it's kind of chilling, isn't it. But if you but 612 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 1: then you know, you know at first that that sounds 613 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 1: like true karma. You know for every action there's an 614 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: opposite but equal reaction. But then I was like, well, 615 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 1: if that, if that, if that's the case, like, does 616 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 1: that mean the more people you influenced in general, the 617 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 1: longer that takes, Like like celebrities who knew bunches and bunches, 618 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:35,360 Speaker 1: they have to go through this longer than some hermit 619 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 1: maybe maybe well, or what about overly sensitive people you know, 620 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:47,880 Speaker 1: you say something to somebody and you don't mean to 621 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 1: offend them and they're just crushed by it. Are you 622 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 1: responsible for feeling that as well? I don't know. It's 623 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 1: just food for thought, isn't it. That's just something interesting 624 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,360 Speaker 1: to think of about. So there you go. I've shared 625 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 1: that with you, and uh, you can. You can email 626 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 1: me if you have some thoughts on this. And I 627 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 1: understand the gist of what she's saying though. Okay, here's 628 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:17,239 Speaker 1: some random trivia. I was interviewed recently by a host 629 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 1: in England, and I've been to England. Um, I get 630 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,359 Speaker 1: interviewed a lot in England. I had friends who are 631 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 1: from England. I my wife and I we watch a 632 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: lot of English programming. And if you're an American, you've 633 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 1: probably noticed at some point over the years that English 634 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:43,760 Speaker 1: people they mean something different when they say biscuit than 635 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,920 Speaker 1: we do. Usually, if an English person mentions a biscuit, 636 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: they're talking about something more like we would call a 637 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:53,280 Speaker 1: cracker or maybe even a cookie. And in this country, 638 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 1: when we talk about a biscuit, we're talking about, you know, 639 00:45:55,440 --> 00:46:00,400 Speaker 1: a nice fluffy, golden pastry that you might have with 640 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: gravy for breakfast in the morning, or you might cut 641 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:05,920 Speaker 1: it in half at some point in the day and 642 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: treating and turn it into a sandwich, you know, you 643 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,399 Speaker 1: put a tomato or some meat and cheese in there. 644 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 1: And obviously there are a lot of differences between here 645 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 1: and there. But for some reason we started talking about 646 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:25,120 Speaker 1: like why biscuit in particular, what's the story behind this 647 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:31,360 Speaker 1: vast gulf and biscuit definition between us and the English? 648 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: So I looked it up. Do you know, here is 649 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 1: what the etymology tells us. And honestly, this is a 650 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,879 Speaker 1: little bit it's still a little bit confusing, at least 651 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,439 Speaker 1: it is. Maybe that's just me, Okay. So it says 652 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:52,880 Speaker 1: the old French word biscuit, which is spelled very similar 653 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 1: b e scu. It is derived from the Latin words 654 00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 1: biss which means twice and cocked us or cooked us, 655 00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:10,279 Speaker 1: which means to cook. Therefore, that Latin word biscuit means 656 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 1: twice cooked. And this is because the biscuits were originally 657 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 1: cooked in a twofold process. First they were baked and 658 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 1: then dried out in a slow oven, okay, And so 659 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:31,759 Speaker 1: this created a hard, a nice, hard little product, and 660 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:35,279 Speaker 1: that is what English people call a biscuit. It's a nice, hard, 661 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:39,840 Speaker 1: little crunchy product, and it says also. The Dutch language 662 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:45,320 Speaker 1: from around seventeen o three had adopted the word cookie, 663 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 1: which is about koe kje cookie, which means little cake, 664 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 1: to have a similar meaning for a similar hard baked product. 665 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 1: The difference between the secondary Dutch word and that of 666 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,719 Speaker 1: Latin origin is that, whereas the cookie is a cake 667 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:09,239 Speaker 1: that rises during baking, the biscuit, which has no right 668 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 1: raising agent in general, does not. And so it goes 669 00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 1: on to say, when continental Europeans began to immigrate to 670 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 1: colonial North America, the two words and their same but 671 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,760 Speaker 1: different meanings began to clash. The words cookie or cracker 672 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,840 Speaker 1: became the words of choice to mean a hard bake product. 673 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 1: And therefore, you know, oh boy, let's see here. And 674 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 1: then a cookie is a small, flat or slightly raised cake, 675 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 1: a biscuits, any of various hard or crisp, dry bake products. 676 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,480 Speaker 1: Did that make sense to you? I don't know. I 677 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 1: guess I understand a little bit more.
