1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast am on 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio and welcome back to Coast to Coast George and 3 00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: Ori with you. Stephen Schwartz is a distinguished consulting faculty 4 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: member of Sabrick University, a research associate of the Cognitive 5 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: Sciences Laboratory of the Laboratories for Fundamental Research. Columnists for 6 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,319 Speaker 1: the journal Explorer, editor of a daily web publication called 7 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: the Schwartz Report dot net, both of which he covers 8 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: trends that are affecting the future of all of us. 9 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: For forty plus years, he has been studying the nature 10 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:36,160 Speaker 1: of consciousness, particularly that aspect independent of space and time. 11 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: One of his books is called The Eight Laws of Change, 12 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: How to be an Agent of Personal and Social Transformation. 13 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: Another is called Awakening Stephen, Welcome back, my friend. How 14 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: are you. I'm doing very well, George, and thank you 15 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: very much for having me here. Me too. And you 16 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: are surviving the COVID situation? I trust Yes, I live 17 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: on an island in the middle of a forest, so 18 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: I'm I'm kind of touching when nothing gets to you, right, Yeah, 19 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: that's good. What's new with you over the last year 20 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: or so? That we haven't spoken. Well. I'm doing a 21 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: lot of social outcome research. I've gotten very interested as 22 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: I about climate change and COVID what's going on, what 23 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: it's telling us about society. And I'm doing a large, 24 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: fifteen hundred person project to look at the year twenty 25 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: sixty and I'll be finished by the end of this 26 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: year and maybe we talk again. But it's very interesting 27 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: I'm getting I did a project from nineteen seventy eight 28 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: to nineteen ninety one. I got four thousand people to 29 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: look at the year twenty fifty and everything they predicted 30 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: has either come to pass or is in the process. Wow. 31 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: I think, like I mean, things that I didn't believe 32 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: at the time, but they were. For instance, I thought 33 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: we were going to have a nuclear war. I just 34 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: left government, and they said to me things like, oh no, 35 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: there's not a nuclear war. And I said, well, then 36 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: what happens to the Cold War Soviet Union Nited States? 37 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: And they said to me, oh, well, the Soviet Union disappears. 38 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. They were spot on. Yes, I mean, 39 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: but in nineteen seventy nine, who thought the Soviet Union 40 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: was going to disappear? Or they said to me? I said, well, 41 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: you know what other things are we looking at? And 42 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: they said, well, they're going to be a series of pandemics. 43 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: The first one will be a blood disease that we 44 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: get from primates that crosses over in Africa and kills 45 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: millions of people. And I went to a friend of 46 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: mine who was the deputy director of National Institutes of 47 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,679 Speaker 1: Health at the time, and said, you know, do you 48 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: know anything about a blood disease it crosses over from 49 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: primates in Africa, it's going to kill millions of people. 50 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: And his aunts or was Stephen, whatever you're smoking quit 51 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: And of course AIDS showed up in nineteen eighty one 52 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: and it's killed thirty five million people a little did 53 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: that other guy know? Geez? Were these people were? You're testing? 54 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: People doing remote viewing? What were they doing to get okay? 55 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 1: I was doing remote viewing sessions with all these people 56 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: all over the world. I did this in Japan, the 57 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: Soviet Union, all over Europe, every almost every country is 58 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: not every country, but Britain, Germany, France, Spain, in the 59 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: United States, of course, Canada, Mexico. It was interesting because 60 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: no matter what country the remote viewers were in, they 61 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: all told me the same basic story. So these twenty 62 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: sixty people that's going to be fascinated. When do you 63 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: begin to conduct this one and when do you get 64 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: your results? I am doing it now. I have about 65 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm looking for fifteen hundred people and I'm at about 66 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: thirteen fifty at this point, I'm going to quit collecting 67 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: data at the end of June. I will then start 68 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: an analysis and I will finish the analysis by the 69 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: end of the year. Well, if you give out some 70 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: kind of email or contact that you want these extra 71 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: two hundred people to sign up for, let me know 72 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: you'll get them tonight. Stephen. Oh, well, actually, okay, when 73 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: we take a break and I can get my computure, 74 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: I will give you a URL excellent. Go do that 75 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: and I'll make sure our webmaster puts that on our 76 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: website for you as well, and you'll be able to 77 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: get going. And then when the study's done, I want 78 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: you back to talk about some of the things they're predicting. 79 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: That's how can they get so accurate? Nlike these people 80 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: who did the twenty fifty study, how did they get 81 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: so accurate to be the pinpoint things you know when 82 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: you move into when you move into nonlocal consciousness. You 83 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: open to nonlocal consciousness, you're really outside of space time. 84 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 1: So time is not the limitation. It's still a factor. 85 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: It's an informational factor, but it's not a limitation. And 86 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: one of the things that I'm looking at in the 87 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: twenty sixty project, because I have the twenty fifty data, 88 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: is when people remote view the future, are they describing 89 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: a fixed future or are they describing the highest probability 90 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: at the moment I ask the question, And I don't 91 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: know the answer to that yet, but that's one of 92 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: the things I'm trying to work out. And when you 93 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: talk about nonlocal consciousness, Stephen, explain to that to a 94 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: lot of people who may not know what that means, 95 00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: what it does mean. Go ahead, well, nonlocal consciousness is 96 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: Let me let in fact, let me start at it 97 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: a little differently. Okay. The Max Plunk in nineteen thirty one, 98 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 1: you know, the father of quantum mechanic. When Max Plunk 99 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 1: was asked by the Observer newspaper in nineteen thirty one, 100 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: they went to him and said, you know, you and 101 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: Einstein are the two most famous scientists in the world. 102 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: What have you learned now? I don't know what they 103 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: thought he was going to say, But what he said 104 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: just gobsmacked them because his answer was, what I've learned 105 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: is that consciousness is causal and fundamental. Everything starts with consciousness. 106 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: You cannot get behind consciousness. Space time arises from consciousness, 107 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: not consciousness from space time. And that's once you start 108 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: with the idea that we are at the at the 109 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: ultimate end, we are beings of consciousness that periodically manifests 110 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: through incarnation, but that there is a continuity of consciousness. 111 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: Consciousness exists before you were born, it continues when you're alive, obviously, 112 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: and it continues after corporeal death, after you die, So 113 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: that the materialist worldview is that consciousness is a result 114 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: of biophysical processes in your neuroanatomy, your brain particularly. That's 115 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: the physicalist idea that that dead meet no consciousness. But 116 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: what is emerging in science based and you know, as 117 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: you know, George, I'm a data person. Yes you are 118 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: nuts and bolts. Yeah, I'm a nuts and bolts guy. 119 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: You know, if the data told me that consciousness was 120 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: entirely physiologically based for them, that okay, that's what it is, 121 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: but that isn't what the data is telling us. If 122 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: you look at the data, for instance, the Near Death studies, 123 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: about thirteen million Americans have had a near death experience. 124 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: That's about four point three percent of the population. So 125 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: there's millions of people. And when you look at the 126 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: data that they report, and these are mostly people. Particularly 127 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: in the data sets that are people who were in 128 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: a hospital, so they were under medical supervision, and the 129 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: near death experience occurred at a time when the doctors 130 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: could monitor the brain function and whether their hearts were beating, 131 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. But in any case, if you 132 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: look at their all this data, whether they're black or white, 133 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: or red or yellow, it doesn't make any difference. They 134 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: all describe this same thing, and that is this continuity 135 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: of consciousness, that consciousness continues. You know, they're famous books, 136 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: Evan Alexander's book or Ray Moody's about their experiences. But 137 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: the reality is that across thousands of these studies, what 138 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 1: you see over and over again is this idea that 139 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: consciousness continues. And if you look at the reincarnation research, 140 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: for instance, done by Ian Stevenson and Jim Tucker at 141 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: the University of Virginia, they have thousands of cases. Now 142 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: they show that not only when do people have come back. 143 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: Not you're not coming back, George and Steven are not 144 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: coming back, but that this eternal self, what the religion 145 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: what religion calls the soul, will periodically episodically manifest another 146 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: personality that incarnates, and and that what comes across between 147 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: lives is information. You're not coming back, but a lot 148 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: of the information patterns that make up your personality will survive, 149 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: just as you came in with a lot of information 150 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: patterns that came before. And in fact it's so detailed 151 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: in a two volume study, a two volume book that 152 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: Ian Stevenson did called Biology and Reincarnation, he showed that 153 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 1: people come in with birthmarks and scar tissue that's based 154 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 1: on violence that occurred to them in a previous life. 155 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: That's right exactly. If if you had the like you 156 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: were stabbed, you may have a scar in this life 157 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: or a birthmark, right, that's right exactly. And I've looked 158 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: at a number of those cases and it's very impressive. 159 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 1: I mean, just to give you one story, a young 160 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: boy is born in a village in India and he 161 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: has this scar on his back, like a scar tissue, 162 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: like like he had a wound of sometime and he 163 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: remembers who he had been, and he said, well, in 164 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: my previous life, I was a money lender in an 165 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: village that nobody in his village has ever heard of, 166 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: in a hundreds of miles away in India. And he said, 167 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: I I had an affair with a man I loaned 168 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: some money to. He was a woodsman, and he when 169 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: he came back, he caught me with his wife and 170 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: as I was trying to climb out the window, he 171 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: had his axe with him, and he struck me with 172 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: the axe, yeah, and killed me. And so they take 173 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: this boy up to this village that he's never been to. 174 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: Nobody in his village nose about, and he goes without 175 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: even batting an eye. He walks right up to one 176 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 1: house in the village, knocks on it. An older woman 177 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: answers the door, and he calls her by a pet 178 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: name that nobody knew, and she then confirms the story. Yes, 179 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: she had a lover, Oh my God, loned her husband 180 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: some money and when they were in the bed together, 181 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 1: the husband came home unexpectedly and as he was trying 182 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: to call out to crawl out the window, the woodcutter 183 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: killed him. So they're hundreds of these kind of stories. 184 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: What about the story of the little James Lininger, the pilot, 185 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: little boy pilot who claimed he was a World War 186 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: Two pilot flying the Concord planes. And apparently they took 187 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: him to a reunion of World War Two veterans from 188 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: that unit, and he knew everybody. Now they didn't know him, 189 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: he was a little kid, but he knew them. It 190 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: was amazing. Yes, that's exactly the kind of thing I'm 191 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 1: talking about. When you look at this data, you realize 192 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: that these people know things they just couldn't know, and 193 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 1: they have obscure experiences. Tell you one other young again, 194 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 1: that's a young boy. I mean, it's not particular to boys. 195 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: Girls have the too, It just it's a young boy 196 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: and he is born and he says, I want to 197 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: go to this other village. And he goes there, and 198 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: he goes up to a house. He knocks on the 199 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: door and he says to the person that opens the door, 200 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: I've come from my watch. What are you talking about? 201 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 1: You know this weird kid? What are you doing? And 202 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: but they, the researchers who were with him, say no, no, 203 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: to see what he does. And so he walks into 204 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: the cooking area and he pulls a brick out of 205 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: where the fireplace is and they're wrapped up in an oilcloth. 206 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: Is this gold pocket watch, And it turns turns out 207 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: that the person who had been in this house before 208 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: years earlier, had had this watch. It was unusual for people, 209 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: and they weren't very rich people. And then it disappeared. 210 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: Nobody ever knew what happened to it, but there it was. 211 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: So those kinds of odd little stories like the boy, 212 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: the American boy who you know, knew all the guys 213 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: who were in the squadron that he was in. All 214 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: of that kind of stuff, as well as the near 215 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: death stuff, as well as the remote viewing research. All 216 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: of this data is telling us that consciousness exists beyond 217 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: physicality and that in the non local, that is this 218 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: aspect of eternal consciousness, again what religion calls the soul. 219 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: We exist prior to incarnation, prior to birth, and then 220 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: we continue on afterwards. And again, as I said about 221 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: Max Plunk, when you start from the idea that consciousness 222 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: is the fundamental So what people like me who do 223 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: research in this area are studying is the nature of 224 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: consciousness and what we see in the data is that 225 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: consciousness is not physiologically based entirely, and that we can 226 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: access this. There's a reason, for instance, why martial arts dojo's, 227 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: Tibetan lamissaries, Christian monasteries, Jewish calabalistic centers all teach meditation, 228 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: because meditation is the way that you develop. The key 229 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,239 Speaker 1: to all of this business about how do you access 230 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: this is you get you must attain and sustain intention 231 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: focused awareness. As you look at remote viewing Stephen, and 232 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: it appears to work outside of the body in this 233 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: consciousness realm. Would you say that it's tied to the 234 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: brain or outside of the brain. I would say that 235 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: that the brain itself is a manifestation of intentioned consciousness, 236 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: that this aspect of consciousness is the fundamental upon which 237 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: the brain is based, and that the neuroanatomy is how 238 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: this aspect of consciousness moves into conscious awareness. So the 239 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: key to it, and I've been studying this dating back 240 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: as far as I can see, dating back as early 241 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: as humanity kept records, there has been an awareness that 242 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: there was an aspect of consciousness that you could that 243 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 1: anyone could make access to that was outside of space time. 244 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: That's where spiritual epiphanies occur. That you know that saints 245 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,959 Speaker 1: have spiritual epiphanies. In fact, if you think about it, 246 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: every major enduring religion in the world across all history 247 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: begins because one person has a non local consciousness experience. 248 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: Jesus is baptized by John and he awakens. He goes 249 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: into the desert to meditate. Muhammad goes into the sacred 250 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 1: Cave of Hares and he meditates and he awakens. The 251 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: Buddha goes to an ashram and learns how to meditate 252 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: and begins to meditate and he awakens. Joseph Smith, who 253 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: founded the Latter day Saints, goes into a grove, meditates 254 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: and awakens. They have experiences, you know that. Muhammad says 255 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: the angel Gabriel comes to him that experiences are different, 256 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: but they are all examples of non local consciousness.
