The Great Light spoke: “Remember this and never forget; you save, redeem,
and heal yourself.” ~Mellen-Thomas Benedict (www.mellen-thomas.com)
Introduction
Tranceformers: Shamans of the 21st Century has never graced the shelf of a
brick and mortar bookstore yet. Yet every single day purchase orders are
placed on-line at amazon.com for it worldwide. Why? I’m convinced it is
because millions of radio talk show listeners have heard me share and
resonate with its message on continents coast-to-coast: Death does not
exist!
For in June 1988, my material model of reality and separate sense of self
melted down in a microsecond when a deceased optics physicist colleague
and close friend, George Sebastian Viguet III, stood before me in my master
bedroom in Silverdale, Washington. He had died six months ago supposedly
from a fatal heart attack but he merged into my consciousness in a pre-dawn
lucid dream in a “second body” that I could not ever have imagined possible
at that time due to my belief system. It was a new, subtle liquid-crystal-like
glass energy body—not his old one, made of clay bones, blood, and flesh.
Although I hasten to add that I’m convinced today that I saw George in a
spirit-to-matter transition phase then and this was not his final disposition at
death.
However, as I’ve shared so many times with audiences, it was this trauma
that shattered my Hard Rock Café worldview and set me free to discard the
theories of both religion and science in terms of immortality of the soul. For I
have what no authority can give or take away from me now: My personal
observation that our soul can split-into-two separate physical and spiritual
bodies like our two brain hemispheres that contain our consciousness-
unconsciousness within it. Perhaps it is akin to what William Blake (1757-
1827) envisioned when he said, “Man has no Body distinct from his Soul.”
More so, I came to the same conclusion as Novalis, the pseudonym of Georg
Philipp Friedrich Freiherr von Hardenberg (1772-1801), an author and
philosopher of early German Romanticism: “The seat of the soul is there,
where the outer and inner worlds meet.” (Quoted by Joseph Campbell (1904-
1987) in his last published book, The Inner Reaches of Outer Space:
Metaphor as Myth and As Religion (1986).
This is why the indigenous cultures, people worshipped the Sun through
ecstatic chanting, drumming, and dance rituals. Broadway dancer Isadora
Duncan acknowledges, “The body, by force of the soul, can in fact be
converted to a luminous fluid.” In her 1928 book The Art of Dance, she
confirms that we can “convert the body into a luminous fluidity, surrendering
it to the inspiration of the soul. The flesh becomes light and transparent, as
shown through x-ray but with the difference that the human soul is lighter
than these rays. When, in its divine power, it completely possesses the body,
it converts that into a luminous moving cloud and thus can manifest itself in
the whole of its divinity.”
Anthropologist Jeremy Narby, Ph.D. stated the case in The Cosmic Serpent:
DNA and The Origins of Knowledge that “nature is minded” because it is
made of the conscious information fields communicated through the DNA
network of macromolecules that are even in the air we breathe and the
water we drink. The shaman knows as well as the quantum physicist, that if
one atom in the cosmos were truly unconscious, the entire creation would
instantly collapse into a singularity: implode to a point. We are under the
illusion of separateness therefore if we believe that when we kick a rock, it
doesn’t hurt—the rock. We have been falsely taught by religion that we are
not nature and this illusion of our two-eyed bipolar vision is at the root of our
dysfunctional secular society today.
In his divine essence that pre-dawn day, I saw that the soul body image of
George was outside of me and inside of me simultaneously, that it was
minted and imprinted on the one-in-the same coin, so to speak, what we call
space-time in science. The illusion of separateness, and invisibility, is
manufactured by the vibrating frequency spectrum of light itself that is
nothing more than space oscillating and rotating around a center point axis
similar to how spinning airplane props and ceiling fan blades become
invisible to “the naked eye.” Indeed, according to the laws of physics at the
speed-of-light there is no space-time “objects” at all possible, only conscious
images or thoughtless forms of awareness!
In other words, our separate sense of self from nature, each other, and God
is an illusion for we are embedded within a universal zero-point field of
“sacred space” like a fish in a net forever immersed in holy water, that is
both here and hereafter at once. That is what I saw is true when I was
initiated into the “land of the dead” by George, all puns intended, but The
Field is made of merely the oscillating flipside of consciousness-
unconsciousness: mirror-images of mind-matter, respectively, in the living
organic solution we naively call “empty space.” So there is no emptiness
only fullness and no one is “lost in space” unless they remain unconscious of
this truth. Unfortunately, I am quite convinced that hell is filled-to-the-brim
and that infernal space of forgetfulness of our own divinity. Indeed, as
mythologist Joseph Campbell himself might classify as a condition spoken to
in this Polynesian adage: We humans spend most days ignorant of our innate
soul body potentials for self-empowerment like fishermen standing on whales
fishing for minnows!
For our purposes, I merely want to reiterate what J. D. Arthur did in his book
when he candidly said, “Then I would smoke. All of a sudden the reality of
the other world and its habitants would wash over me like an icy wave. It
would become disturbingly apparent that this realm of experience is the real
one. This world is the real world—not the contrived world of personality,
ideas, and thoughts that insulates us from the infinite—that coddles us into
clinging desperately to the known.”
In blunt terms, we are the ones that currently live in the land of “smoke and
mirrors,” an illusion of immense proportions and consequences since we play
with fire (nuclear weapons) and may burn this planet and people with them,
claim prophets, mystics, and shamans. No doubt our split soul body is the
creator of this lack of communication between consciousness-
unconsciousness and, furthermore, was a well-known crisis to resolve within
time and eternity as former psychological counselor and scholar of world
religions, Peter Novak, highlighted in a trilogy of books dedicated to the
Binary Soul Doctrine. In particular, I am speaking to “the common foundation
of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Taoism, Huna, shamanism, and
even the pyramid religions of ancient Egypt and MesoAmerica,“ as he
elaborated upon in a monumental text titled ominously The Lost Secret of
Death: Our Divided Souls and the Afterlife.
Our soul body double is what many near-death experiencers call a “guardian
angel” that they meet inside the tunnel of light. Ned Dougherty confirms this
truth after drinking what turned out to be his last alcoholic beverage in fact—
appropriately enough for a Catholic Irishman, it was an Irish Mist. There in
Old Ebitt’s Grill in Georgetown, Washington, D.C., he knew that his 20-year
battle with the bottle was over and he had to reclaim his lost soul [body].
In no uncertain terms, we all have a bipolar soul body “cross” to bear and
that leads to salvation through trance-formation triggered by breath
management! For in a relevant text A Monument to the End of Time:
Alchemy, Fulcanelli, & The Great Cross, co-authors Jay Weidner and Vincent
Bridges remind us that this is the key to immortality: “The Pharaoh then built
the Ankh within himself by aligning his subtle bodies or energy fields in this
pattern.” Maybe we ought to likewise learn the deeper meaning to the
symbolism in the “sign of the cross” made over the heart center by
practicing Catholics?
The secret of the cross in Christianity and the Egyptian Ankh cross pattern is
the same: simply mapping the flow of chi, the in-out breathing cycle of
cosmic consciousness through us called in yogic terms “pranayama.”
Wikipedia adds: “Several researchers have reported that pranayama
techniques are beneficial in treating a range of stress related disorders,
improving autonomic functions, relieving symptoms of asthma, and reducing
signs of oxidative stress. Practitioners report that the practice of pranayama
develops a steady mind, strong will-power, and sound judgment, and also
claim that sustained pranayama practice extends life and enhances
perception.” I outlined the theory of trance in the First Edition and how I used
this information to heal myself of illness in the Second Edition of
Tranceformers: Shamans of the 21st Century.
That is to say that we must see ourselves as the archetypal clone of Christ,
the mirror-image container of God’s cycle of consciousness to then unify the
inside and outside of creation within us. Just as Dr. Paul A. LaViolette has
revealed, too, the symbols in the Zodiac and Tarot cards encode the
spontaneous creation of matter out of nothing but the zero-point field energy
in a biochemical reaction-diffusion process that takes the shape of the Ankh.
He calls the Ankh the “Model G” pattern in a new unified physics of The Field
he defined as sub-quantum kinetics. (Reference: www.etheric.com)
There are also the insights of Mayan scholar John Major Jenkins: “The
Egyptian Ankh scepter is suggestive of the crossroads formed by the Milky
Way where it crosses over the ecliptic, and the dark rift near the Galactic
Center. A form of it was held by Isis, and it later became the astrological
symbol for Venus.” This Ankh shape is beyond a reasonable doubt the
meaning to the original “Cross of Christ” with its corresponding power to
move Heaven and Earth, literally, between the bipolar Venus transits of our
Sun in June 2004 and June 2012. Briefly recall that in Central America, El
Castillo, The Castle, in Chichen Itza served as a temple to Kukulkan: The
Feathered “Vision” Serpent. During the spring and fall equinoxes the shadow
cast by the angle of the sun and edges of the nine steps of the pyramid
combined with the northern stairway and the stone serpent head carvings to
create the illusion of a massive serpent descending the pyramid. The bipolar,
forked-tongue serpent in Mesoamerica cosmology signified the opening of
the “portal between two worlds” [within cosmic—galactic—consciousness]:
Hunab Ku, translated into English as “Sole” or “Only” God.
In concert with this parry and thrust, Dr. Haisch writes in his above
referenced book, “consciousness creates matter” and “… we are literally all
one being (God) in many individual forms. Why then we would continue to
harm one another?” Indeed, if our own Milky Way Galaxy is one of the living
body-mind cells of God, I want to know: “Is there a doctor in the house?”
Fortunately it is not Dr. House!
If that were not enough for one lifetime of achievement award, Robert Lanza
has written this article published in The Huffington Post titled “Does Death
Exist? New Theory Says ‘No’” and that gets to the heart and soul body of
what I am focused on today too. That is, as Dr. Lanza declares: “Many of us
fear death. We believe in death because we have been told we will die. We
associate ourselves with the body, and we know that bodies die. But a new
scientific theory suggests that death is not the terminal event we think.”
In other words, Lanza grasps The God Theory implication of Bernard Haisch’s
zero-point field physics for quantum biology, stating, “A new scientific theory
—called biocentrism—refines these ideas. There are an infinite number of
universes, and everything that could possibly happen occurs in some
universe. Death does not exist in any real sense in these scenarios. All
possible universes exist simultaneously, regardless of what happens in any
of them. Although individual bodies are destined to self-destruct, the alive
feeling—the ‘Who am I?’—is just a 20-watt fountain of energy operating in
the brain. But this energy doesn’t go away at death. One of the surest
axioms of science is that energy never dies; it can neither be created nor
destroyed. But does this energy transcend from one world to the other?”
In my opinion, based upon my observation of the other world, the land of the
dead that contains George, at a minimum, I say, yes our energy does survive
death first and foremost because we have at least two if not many more soul
bodies co-existing at the same time in multiple worlds. M.I.T. trained
physicist Claude Swanson, Ph.D. confirms in The Synchronized Universe:
New Science of the Paranormal, “Entering deep meditation states causes a
synchronization of the vibrations of the DNA in the body, and it is very likely
that this is one of the keys to ‘psychic superpowers.’ … ‘Phase’ acts like a
fifth dimension which distinguished one parallel reality, one ‘universe’ from
another.”
Thus our problem in a nutshell is that we cannot see the invisible realms yet
because we have not been able to synchronize our brain’s two hemispheres
unless in a state-of-trance. This means that our sense of self, or “ego,” is
fragmented, split into two “selves” neurologically with a hardwired ten
second fuse delay in signal transfer between our whole brain and the zero-
point field—Mind of God—and thereby there by yields a “false”
representation of reality. Again, we need to synchronize the waveforms of
our cells in trance meditation. So I am going to open Pandora’s Box and the
curtain on the Wizard of Oz using the scientific findings of the late University
of California, San Francisco, neurologist Benjamin Libet, Ph.D. (1916-2007)
insights into free will as documented in his book Mind Time: The Temporal
Factor in Consciousness.
Specifically, Dr. Libet was the first recipient of the Virtual Nobel Prize in
Psychology from the University of Klagenfurt, "for his pioneering
achievements in the experimental investigation of consciousness, initiation
of action, and free will.” In the 1970s, Libet was involved in research into
neural activity and sensation thresholds. His initial investigations involved
determining how much activation at specific sites in the brain was required
to trigger artificial somatic sensations. His most famous experiment
demonstrates that the unconscious electrical processes in the brain called
“readiness potential” discovered by Lüder Deecke and Hans Helmut
Kornhuber in 1964 precede conscious decisions to perform volitional,
spontaneous acts, implying that unconscious neuronal processes precede
and potentially cause volitional acts which are retrospectively felt to be
consciously motivated by the subject. The experiment has caused
controversy as it challenges the pre-scientific philosophical and religious
views of "free will.”
That is to scream to high heaven: we are not separate from each other,
nature, or God! We are embedded within the “images” of the zero-point field.
Although we are in fact individual cells of cosmic consciousness on earth, we
are seeking to awaken to our source and potential as a unified global being:
Our Great Self. Once again, here is the same truth straight from the Gospel
of Thomas—the word in Greek that means “twin”—when Jesus was asked
what to do to bring peace on earth? He said to them, his beloved disciples,
“‘When you make the two into one, and when you make the inner like the
outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower, and when
you make male and female into a single one, so that the male will not be
male nor the female be female, when you make an eye in place of eyes, a
hand in place of hands, a foot in place of feet, an image in place of images,
then you will enter the kingdom.’”
"This body, that you are in, has been alive forever. It comes from an
unending stream of life, going back to the Big Bang and beyond." ~Mellen-
Thomas Benedict
Albert Einstein (1879-1955) captured my mind from an early age and later
my heart in college when I read his statement, “Science without religion is
lame, religion without science is blind.” Thus, I attest that I likewise seek the
application of scientific theory to spiritual truth for one without the other
slips into meaninglessness. Specifically, although the above musings may
sound marvelous to the mystics, they have no real utility, in my opinion,
unless they can mitigate the suffering and pain on this planet here and now,
if not hereafter.
This rings true with the NDE of Reverend Howard Storm as well, who saw our
future up to about 2185 A.D., and learned “Everybody was a student of
Nature, which they knew intimately and with which they could communicate,
knowing the sensations and vibration of every part of creation. People
explored outer space without moving an inch. People communicated
telepathically with everyone on Earth and had relationships with intelligent
beings on other worlds. There was no space travel because there was no
need. People stayed put and shared life experience across galaxies. People
valued the life experience they had been given in this world because they
knew it was a precious gift from God.”
Summary
In closing, I’m ready to help co-create then celebrate our self-saving, self-
redeeming, self-healing social networking centers such as Cybernaut Café.
Hope to see you there for a unifying, death-defying, brainstorming soul body
tune-up session soon now!
