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 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: iHeart Radio. Tell me about the Lost Pillars of Enoch, 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,119 Speaker 1: and first of all, explain who Enoch was before we 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: get into the Lost Pillars. Yes, Enoch, I'm sure everybody's 5 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 1: heard the name is one of the original progeny of Seth. 6 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 1: Seth is Adam's third son who was born as a 7 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: new beginning after Cain's slug dable, and he's the great grandfather. 8 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: Enoch is the great grandfather of Noah, who I'm sure 9 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 1: everybody's heard about. And his name means dedicated or possibly initiated, 10 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: and his name has become associated with primal wisdom, the 11 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: first knowledge of mankind in the mythology, which we find 12 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: in the Book of Genesis, but also in another book 13 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: which was found in many copies among the Dead Sea scrolls, 14 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: called the Book of Enoch, which is a very apocalyptic 15 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: book full of mysteries, and Enoch is the superstar of that. 16 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: And it says in the Bible that very cryptic statement, 17 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: it said, and he was not before God took him, 18 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: which has taken to mean that he didn't die in 19 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 1: the ordinary sense, but was translated to the heavenly realms, 20 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: because he walked with God, as the phrase goes, so 21 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: he's associated with, as it were, the perfect man, somebody 22 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: who's truly fit for heaven, and thus becomes an intermediary 23 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: between a higher world and our world. And he has 24 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: a great deal of fascinating mythology to go with him. 25 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: Did he possess any magical or mystical powers or anything 26 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:56,279 Speaker 1: like that. Enoch's reputation, the Enoch from the Sethian line 27 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: from Seth is always is pretty well squeaky lean, and 28 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: the knowledge which is associated with him is primarily what 29 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: we would call the scientific knowledge astronomical knowledge, but the 30 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: ways that the universe works is associated with Enoch, that 31 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: he understands the inner workings of the universe, and which, 32 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: of course, this kind of knowledge can be dangerous, as 33 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: it were, in the wrong hands, And you get a 34 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: hint of that in the story of the Watchers and 35 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: the Nephilim, which you get a fragment of in the 36 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: Book of Genesis, where you have apparently angels coming to 37 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: earth and impregnating human women and teaching mankind the dark 38 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: arts of the magic, necromancy and sciences that can be perverted. 39 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 1: So you have this double idea of knowledge as a 40 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: good knowledge, which is associated with Enoch, and then there's 41 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: the perversion of it, which is associated with people who 42 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: stray from the good path, which Enoch is an exemplar. Now, 43 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: the enochs pillars. Tell us about these pillars, and then 44 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: we'll get into the last portion of it. What are 45 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:12,119 Speaker 1: the pillars? Yeah, this is a fascinating story. I say 46 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: it's the first archaeological story. And it's told by the 47 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: Jewish historian Josephus, who was writing in Rome about forty 48 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: years just over forty years after the Crucifixion, and he 49 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: was writing about the antiquity of the Jews, a book 50 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: that it was aimed at a Roman and Greek speaking audience. 51 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: And he says in the story, which is mainly taken 52 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: from the books of Genesis and the historical books of 53 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: the Jewish scriptures, but he tells a story which you 54 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: don't find in Genesis, that this line of Seth heard 55 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: from Adam a prophecy that God intended to destroy the 56 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: world by either fire or water. And it says that 57 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: the progeny of Seth put all their knowledge on two pillars, 58 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: all the knowledge that they wanted to survive as a 59 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: monument to what they'd achieved if the whole world was destroyed. 60 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: And one of the pillars was designed to survive fire 61 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: and the other one was designed to survive water. And 62 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: of course we know the story of the flood, and 63 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: we must presume that the flood destroyed the one one 64 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: of the pillars at least. And Joseva says something very interesting. 65 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 1: He says that one of the pillars can still be 66 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,799 Speaker 1: seen to this day. Now we're talking about eighty AD, 67 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: in the first century of the Christian era, one could 68 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: still be seen. And he says it, And that's where 69 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: that's my first mystery. I investigate what is the pillar? 70 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: Where was it and why did he think it could 71 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: still be seen? How tall is it? And what's the 72 00:04:54,880 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: significant insignificance of the pillars? Well, you have in this story, 73 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: this myth of the pillars of the Sethian generation, the 74 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 1: idea that there was once a perfect knowledge that predates 75 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: the flood, and that man has lost contact with sure, 76 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: So you have it's like there is you like you 77 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: have BC and AD. You really have preflood, which you 78 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: call antidiluvian, and the post flood world and the pillars. 79 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: The image of the pillars is a link between our knowledge, 80 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: which is fragmentary, and a supposed legendary pure knowledge which 81 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: was both divine and as we would say, material or scientific. 82 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: You also make a distinction between religion and gnosticism. There 83 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: seems to be a big difference with you. Yes, I 84 00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: take the When when I hear the word religion, I 85 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: tend to think it means really an enclosing or an 86 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: ordering of doctrines. It can also mean a devoted life, 87 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: But I associate religion with something that's organized, held from above, 88 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: where the relationship of the individual to the mystery of 89 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: God is through a cult. I didn't say o cult 90 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: cult o cult which is controlled by priests or ministers 91 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: or somebody. But the relationship with God is involved with 92 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: a collective body with a set of doctrines which believers 93 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: are supposed to accept in toto, and there's a conformity 94 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: of inherited tradition. Whereas when we talk about gnosis, which 95 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: is just Greek for knowledge or mysticism, the sighting of 96 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: the relationship with God is entirely within the soul of 97 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: the individual, and for that reason one may think it 98 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: has more authenticity and more conviction, and if the individual 99 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: is seeking God, it's going to be more likely resolved 100 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: through mystical or gnostic experience, going to church and singing 101 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: hymns and doing the communal observances. So that's the distinction. 102 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: And I think you have a period in the first second, 103 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: third centuries of the Christian Era when there was a 104 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: kind of letting out of this individualism, if you like, 105 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: which starts actually quite a few centuries before the Christian Era, 106 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: but round about the sixth century, where the individual appears 107 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: in history as a thinking sent in being with his 108 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: own thoughts, her own thoughts and experiences which and own 109 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: griefs and so forth. So there's again we're talking about 110 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: the sighting of the relationship with the divine within the 111 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: soul of the person, whereas religion has a habit of 112 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: taking all that over and say yes, yes, yes, of 113 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: course you have your relationship with God, but you can't 114 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: have it without us, and you must do this and 115 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: believe that. And at the end of the first centuries 116 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: of the Christian era, when the Roman Empire fell, the 117 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: Catholic Church, the Roman Church took over, you can say 118 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: the religious role. And when that happened the religion started 119 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: to control what people could believe about the universe. And 120 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: this is where the theme of the book starts to 121 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: come in, is that science was abhorred by church leaders 122 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: because it'd upset religious conformity. For example, the idea that 123 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: the Earth might move was something they couldn't accept because 124 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: they'd made it a religious principle, not a scientific principle, 125 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: meaning that it could be proved otherwise you cannot prove 126 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: a religious principle otherwise it cannot be changed. Because the 127 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: Church claims to hold all truth for all time. And 128 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: so a scientist became a suspect. And I tell the 129 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: story of Copernicus and Giordano Bruno and other thinkers of 130 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: the late Medieval and Renaissance periods, and how they suffered 131 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,599 Speaker 1: at the hands of what we could call religion. To 132 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: America is founded on the principle that one group of 133 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: religious spiritual believers couldn't stand working within a religious context 134 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: in England and set sail for America to create their own. Yeah, 135 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: they create their own. But of course what happens is 136 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 1: so often with these things, is the rebel with his mysticism. 137 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: Within a couple of generations has simply become the new 138 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: religion because the followers, as you'll find if you study 139 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: these things in history, are never up to the insight 140 00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: of the beginner of these movements, and so you end 141 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: up producing a new basically a new religion with a 142 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: different kind of structure, but still the structure. And you 143 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: start to get again persecution of people because they don't 144 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 1: fit in. And the Gnostic principle has always been, if 145 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: I would say, a kind of harbor the people who 146 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: who are suffering under religious or any kind of ideological 147 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: oppression of conformity. In that sense, this is why I 148 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: think the Gnostic tradition, just for society and for human 149 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: well being, is so terribly important. These pillars, did they 150 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: have any significance in terms of anything magical or were 151 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: they just symbols? No, they acquire incredible meaning. And the 152 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: book really is telling the story of this story that 153 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: Josephus tells as he drops into the beginning of his antiquities. 154 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: The Jews in fact gathers masters as it rolls through 155 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: history and becomes one of the great motive ating forces 156 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 1: in human spiritual and material development. It becomes the great 157 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: myth that we must recover something that's been lost, and 158 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: in that process the pillars came to also symbolize mystical experience, 159 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: the truth of ourselves, the mysteries of the soul, the 160 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: destiny of the spirit, the relationship between man God, the 161 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: hidden aspects of spiritual relationship with the material natural cosmos. 162 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: All that so what we can call occult meaning hidden knowledge. 163 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 1: They also become part of the pillars story. So it's 164 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: an The idea is there was once a unified knowledge, 165 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: a unified experience of man and God, which has been 166 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 1: shattered after the flood, and we only get fragments of it. 167 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: And the pillars then stand as it were, as an 168 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: image for when the knowledge was not shattered and our 169 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: consciousness was complete, and it becomes a kind of carry 170 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: and care. Therefore, the people who are looking for lost knowledge, 171 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 1: which all science is doing. I mean today science is 172 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: a path and I would say it's best lets through 173 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 1: a spirit of truth and truth seeking. And if you 174 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: keep seeking, you find things, and we keep finding more 175 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: and more. So, as Isaac Newton says in the sixteen 176 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: hundred late sixteen hundreds, all science is rediscovery, not an 177 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: original discovery. He strongly believed that everything he was famous 178 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: for his gravity theory. Optics was all rediscovering what the 179 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: ancients knew already. He uses those very words, what the 180 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 1: ancients knew already, and he felt, while he'd put it 181 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: in a form for his time, this knowledge already existed 182 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 1: about the Sun being the center of the universe, with 183 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: the Earth moving around it and so forth, and this 184 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: universal system that he described. He thought he was just 185 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: a rediscovery of what Enoch can you? So Enoch becomes 186 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: the symbol of the man who knew and always knows. 187 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: You bring in Freemasonry in this work, tell me why, Well, 188 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: it's a fascinating thing. The legend of the Pillars appears 189 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: within the very earliest known Masonic documents. Yeah, it's there now. 190 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: The earliest is around about thirteen fifty, that sort of time, 191 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: between thirteen fifty fourteen fifty, you have a series of 192 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: documents called the Old Charges, which we're not bibles. We 193 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: don't know exactly why they were produced. They were probably 194 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 1: produced as justifications when Masons were being told they couldn't 195 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: meet by order of the state, and they had to 196 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: justify why they existed and what were special about them. 197 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: I'm talking about Stonemasons. The word freemason originally meant a 198 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: person who works in freestone like sandstone, which is easy 199 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 1: to carve, and that's the origin of the word freemason. 200 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: And in their first in the first documents of these 201 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: fraternities of Masons, they tell the story that after the flood, 202 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: Hermes the philosopher, Hermis, the philosopher, discovers a pillar, and 203 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: he passes the knowledge of that pillar onto Euclid, the geometer, 204 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: which is the fundamental building principles of geometry earth measurement. 205 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: And so the Mason is in touch with this pre 206 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: flood knowledge, and it's a spiritual ideal as well as 207 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: a practical knowledge. And that is in all the early 208 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: documents of the Masons, and only starts to disappear rather 209 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: suspiciously about the time of the founding of the Grand 210 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: Lodge of England, which is formed in London starting in 211 00:14:54,520 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: seventeen sixteen and with meetings at various lodge in London, 212 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: and which was something of a takeover a much older 213 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 1: tradition which I describe in the book. And in the 214 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: older tradition it appears that the figure of Enoch and 215 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: these pillars were much more central to Freemasonry than people 216 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: would say the Yakin and Boaz pillars of the Temple 217 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: of Jerusalem, which had become the main symbol of freemasonry, 218 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: which comes from Isaac Newton, because Isaac Newton believes that 219 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: the Jerusalem Temple was an image of the universe, and 220 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: so he Newtonian ideas very much informed the Grand Lodge 221 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:42,479 Speaker 1: of England, which was a nationally organized freemasonry for Nonmasons. 222 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: It was not for the builders. It separated itself from 223 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: the architects and the builders and becomes a kind of 224 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: ideal society. Is there anything supernatural that has occurred because 225 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: of all of this, Well, it depends entirely what you 226 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: mean supernatural. I would say, in my own view, I'd 227 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 1: say that SuperNature is simply nature that you don't understand yet. 228 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: So I'd say people who have a spiritual awareness or 229 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: a growing consciousness which leads them to new knowledge, a 230 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: new experience. This is. This is if you like it's supernatural, 231 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: it might it certainly may feel unusual to the individual. 232 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: And beyond that, you know, it depends on your belief system. 233 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: You can either say I have a great idea, or 234 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 1: you could say an angel spoke to me, listen to 235 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 1: more Coast to Coast AM every weeknight at one am Eastern, 236 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: and go to Coast to Coast am dot com for 237 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: more
