Robert Bruce Shows You Simple Tips On How To Protect Your Sacred Space From Negative Energy
There was a time when I was so sensitive and insecure about my energetic and psychic safety that I was constantly monitoring what was happening around me. I was tense all the time, and my family and friends could feel it.
I felt like I was surrounded by bullies in a schoolyard, always looking out for an oncoming attack. I was getting pretty paranoid at one point. Mind you, I had good reason for this at one time, which you will understand if you read my bestselling book ‘The Practical Psychic Self-Defense Handbook.’
It makes me cringe just to think about it. The learning curve was steep and painful. After all, I was a successful and strong guy in every other way. And yet, I felt completely at the mercy of whatever negative energy was in my room at the time.
What I had not yet learned at that time was that by not focusing on the positives, and by not putting effective energetic safeguards and firewalls in place, I was actually making problems worse by focusing on them.
“Your energy flows where your attention goes”
Why Focusing On Negativity Doesn’t Work
After much confusion and head-scratching, I started to make headway. I realized that if energy sensitives pay too much attention to negative phenomena, they will start attracting it into their lives and actually feed it!
This has the opposite effect of what is needed to fix the problem.
Only by paying attention to and focusing on the positives, and coming up with positive solutions like energy shields and practical countermeasures, will you ever manifest the safety, happiness, and energy cleanliness that you deserve.
How To Set Up An Energy Firewall That Shields You
This doesn’t mean that you are trying to block the spiritual world out of your life – not at all. On the contrary, mystics and psychics set up these precautionary devices in order to LET good people and things into their life – while keeping out the nonsense.
This is a SOUND strategy.
A simple and effective way to do this is to literally imagine a giant, thick, steel-plated box around your body that is designed to be impregnable to negativity, but while also inviting and attracting the flow of positive energies. This shield will grow stronger every day you reinforce it.
When you create such a shield, a magical thing happens: You find that you generally become a happier, more trusting and confident person, while the negative people, energy vampires and emotional train wrecks, simply CANNOT relate to you anymore. So they stop draining you and go elsewhere.
For step-by-step guidance in raising your self esteem and being open to positive growth in a way that will change your life, I want you to read my eBook, “Evolution: What You Need To Know About How To Be Successful With Spirituality”.
I learned about all this the hard way. But once I learned and started putting these principles into practice, that’s when my natural psychic intuition JUMP-STARTED – my astral projection skills SKYROCKETED – and I began writing book after book after book full of creative thoughts and new ideas based on real life experience.
I put my eBook together to share with you all the lessons I have learned on my journey to now. It contains everything you need to get started…to help you feel confident about your energy health and mental integrity. And it will immediately improve your self-confidence, your relationships, and your state of mind.
You don’t have to live with worry, fear and insecurity any longer when it comes to negative energies and entities. Download “Evolution” right now. When you start to apply the Tools in my eBook in your own life, you’ll start to experience shifts in your attitude and your natural shielding will make you feel INVINCIBLE.
The end of all Hopi ceremonialism will come when a “Kachina” removes his mask during a dance in the plaza before uninitiated children [the general public]. For a while there will be no more ceremonies, no more faith. Then Oraibi will be rejuvenated with its faith and ceremonies, marking the start of a new cycle of Hopi life.
World War III will be started by those peoples who first revealed the light (the divine wisdom or intelligence) in the other old countries (India, China, Islamic Nations, Africa.)
The United States will be destroyed, land and people, by atomic bombs and radioactivity. Only the Hopis and their homeland will be preserved as an oasis to which refugees will flee. Bomb shelters are a fallacy. “It is only materialistic people who seek to make shelters. Those who are at peace in their hearts already are in the great shelter of life. There is no shelter for evil. Those who take no part in the making of world division by ideology are ready to resume life in another world, be they Black, White, Red, or Yellow race. They are all one, brothers.”
The war will be “a spiritual conflict with material matters. Material matters will be destroyed by spiritual beings who will remain to create one world and one nation under one power, that of the Creator.”
That time is not far off. It will come when the Saquasohuh (Blue Star) Kachina dances in the plaza and removes his mask. He represents a blue star, far off and yet invisible, which will make its appearance soon. The time is foretold by a song sung during the Wuwuchim ceremony. It was sung in 1914 just before World War I, and again in 1940 before World War II, describing the disunity, corruption, and hatred contaminating Hopi rituals, which were followed by the same evils spreading over the world. This same song was sung in 1961 during the Wuwuchim ceremony.
The Emergence to the future Fifth World has begun. It is being made by the humble people of little nations, tribes, and racial minorities. “You can read this in the earth itself. Plant forms from previous worlds are beginning to spring up as seeds [as described in SW-II, Effects and Coming Events # 1]. This could start a new study of botany if people were wise enough to read them. The same kinds of seeds are being planted in the sky as stars. The same kinds of seeds are being planted in our hearts. All these are the same, depending how you look at them. That is what makes the Emergence to the next, Fifth World.
“These comprise the nine most important prophecies of the Hopis, connected with the creation of the nine worlds: the three previous worlds on which we lived, the present Fourth World, the three future worlds we have yet to experience, and the world of Taiowa, the Creator, and his nephew, Sotuknang.”
The Hopi and others who were saved from the Great Flood made a sacred covenant with the Great Spirit never to turn away from him. He made a set of sacred stone tablets, called Tiponi, into which he breathed his teachings, prophecies, and warnings. Before the Great Spirit hid himself again, he placed before the leaders of the four different racial groups four different colors and sizes of corn; each was to choose which would be their food in this world. The Hopi waited until last and picked the smallest ear of corn. At this, the Great Spirit said:
“It is well done. You have obtained the real corn, for all the others are imitations in which are hidden seeds of different plants. You have shown me your intelligence; for this reason I will place in your hands these sacred stone tablets, Tiponi, symbol of power and authority over all land and life to guard, protect, and hold in trust for me until I shall return to you in a later day, for I am the First and I am the Last.”
The Great Chieftain of the Bow Clan led the faithful ones to this new land, but he fell into evil ways. His two sons scolded him for his mistake, and after he died they assumed the responsibilities of leadership. Each brother was given a set of Tiponi, and both were instructed to carry them to a place to which the Great Spirit directed them. The elder brother [of the shining light] was told to go immediately to the east, toward the rising sun, and upon reaching his destination to start back immediately to look for his younger brother, who remained on Turtle Island [the Continental United States of America]. His mission was to help his younger brother to bring about the Purification Day, at which time all evildoers would be punished or destroyed, after which real peace, brotherhood, and everlasting life would be established. The elder brother would restore all land to his younger brother, from whom the Evil one among the white men had taken it. The elder brother [of the shining light] also would come to look for the Tiponi tablets and fulfill the mission given him by the Great Spirit.
The younger brother was instructed to travel throughout the land and mark his footsteps as he went about. Both brothers were told that a great white star would appear in the sky; when that happened, all people would know that the elder brother had reached his destination. Thereupon all people were to settle wherever they happened to be at that time, there to remain until the elder brother returned.
The Hopi settled in the area now known as Four Corners, where the state lines of Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado meet. They lived in humble simplicity and the land produced abundant crops. This area is the “heart” of Turtle Island [the U.S.] and of Mother Earth, and it is the microcosmic image of the macrocosm of the entire planet. Each Hopi clan perpetuates a unique ceremony, and the ceremonies together maintain the balance of natural forces of sunlight, rain and winds, and reaffirm the Hopi respect for all life and trust in the Great Spirit.
The Hopi were told that after a time White Men would come and take their land and try to lead the Hopi into evil ways. But in spite of all the pressures against them, the Hopi were told they must hold to their ancient religion and their land, though always without violence. If they succeeded, they were promised that their people and their land would be a center from which the True Spirit would be reawakened.
It is said that after many years the elder brother might change the color of his skin, but his hair will remain black. He will have the ability to write, and he will be the only person able to read the Tiponi. When he returns to find his younger brother, the Tiponi will be placed side by side to show all the world that they are true brothers. Then great judgment will take place, for the elder will help the younger brother to obtain real justice for all Indian brothers who have been cruelly mistreated by the white man since he came to Turtle Island.
The transformed elder brother, the True White Brother, will wear a red cloak or a red cap, similar to the pattern on the back of a horned toad. He will bring no religion but his own, and will bring with him the Tiponi tablets. He will be all-powerful; none will be able to stand against him. He will come swiftly, and in one day gain control of this entire continent. It is said, “If he comes from the East, the destruction will not be so bad. But if he comes from the West, do not get up on your housetops to see because he will have no mercy.”
The True White Brother will bring with him two great, intelligent and powerful helpers, one of whom will have a sign of a swastika (a masculine symbol of purity), and the sign of the sun. The second great helper will have the sign of a celtic cross with red lines (representing female life blood) between the arms of the cross.
When the Great Purification is near, these helpers will shake the earth first for a short time in preparation. After they shake the earth two times more, they will be joined by the True White Brother, who will become one with them and bring the Purification Day to the world. All three will help the “younger brother” (the Hopi and other pure-hearted people) to make a better world. In the prophecies, the two helpers are designated by the Hopi word for “population,” as if they were large groups of people.
The Hopi were warned that if these three great beings failed, terrible evil would befall the world and great numbers of people would be killed. However, it was said that they would succeed if enough Hopi remained true to the ancient spirit of their people. The True White Brother and his helpers will show the people of earth a great new life plan that will lead to everlasting life. The earth will become new and beautiful again, with an abundance of life and food. Those who are saved will share everything equally. All races will intermarry and speak one tongue and be a family.
Hopi prophecy states that World War III will be started by the people who first received the Light — China, Palestine, India and Africa. When the war comes, the United States will be destroyed by “gourds of ashes” which will fall to the ground, boiling the rivers and burning the earth, where no grass will grow for many years, and causing a disease that no medicine can cure. This can only mean nuclear or atomic bombs; no other weapon causes such effects. Bomb shelters will be useless, for “Those who are at peace in their hearts already are in the Great Shelter of Life. There is no shelter for evil. When the Saquahuh (blue Star) Kachina dances in the plaza and removes his mask, the time of the great trial will be here.” The Hopi believe that only they will be saved.
The Hopi also have prophesied that “Turtle Island could turn over two or three times and the oceans could join hands and meet the sky.” This seems to be a prophecy of a “pole shift” — a flipping, of the planet on its axis. The Hopi call this imminent condition — and that of society today — “Koyaanisqatsi”, which means “world out of balance…a state of life that calls for another way. ”
The following extraordinary Hopi prophecy was first published in a mimeographed manuscript that circulated among several Methodist and Presbyterian churches in 1959. Some of the prophecies were published in 1963 by Frank Waters in The Book of the Hopi. The account begins by describing how, while driving along a desert highway one hot day in the summer of 1958, a minister named David Young stopped to offer a ride to an Indian elder, who accepted with a nod. After riding in silence for several minutes, the Indian said:
“I am White Feather, a Hopi of the ancient Bear Clan. In my long life I have traveled through this land, seeking out my brothers, and learning from them many things full of wisdom. I have followed the sacred paths of my people, who inhabit the forests and many lakes in the east, the land of ice and long nights in the north, and the places of holy altars of stone built many years ago by my brothers’ fathers in the south. From all these I have heard the stories of the past, and the prophecies of the future. Today, many of the prophecies have turned to stories, and few are left — the past grows longer, and the future grows shorter.
“And now White Feather is dying. His sons have all joined his ancestors, and soon he too shall be with them. But there is no one left, no one to recite and pass on the ancient wisdom. My people have tired of the old ways — the great ceremonies that tell of our origins, of our emergence into the Fourth World, are almost all abandoned, forgotten, yet even this has been foretold. The time grows short.
“My people await Pahana, the lost White Brother, [from the stars] as do all our brothers in the land. He will not be like the white men we know now, who are cruel and greedy. we were told of their coming long ago. But still we await Pahana.
“He will bring with him the symbols, and the missing piece of that sacred tablet now kept by the elders, given to him when he left, that shall identify him as our True White Brother.
“The Fourth World shall end soon, and the Fifth World will begin. This the elders everywhere know. The Signs over many years have been fulfilled, and so few are left.
“This is the First Sign: We are told of the coming of the white-skinned men, like Pahana, but not living like Pahana men who took the land that was not theirs. And men who struck their enemies with thunder.
“This is the Second Sign: Our lands will see the coming of spinning wheels filled with voices. In his youth, my father saw this prophecy come true with his eyes — the white men bringing their families in wagons across the prairies.”
“This is the Third Sign: A strange beast like a buffalo but with great long horns, will overrun the land in large numbers. These White Feather saw with his eyes — the coming of the white men’s cattle.”
“This is the Fourth Sign: The land will be crossed by snakes of iron.”
“This is the Fifth Sign: The land shall be criss-crossed by a giant spider’s web.”
“This is the Sixth sign: The land shall be criss-crossed with rivers of stone that make pictures in the sun.”
“This is the Seventh Sign: You will hear of the sea turning black, and many living things dying because of it.”
“This is the Eight Sign: You will see many youth, who wear their hair long like my people, come and join the tribal nations, to learn their ways and wisdom.
“And this is the Ninth and Last Sign: You will hear of a dwelling-place in the heavens, above the earth, that shall fall with a great crash. It will appear as a blue star. Very soon after this, the ceremonies of my people will cease.
“These are the Signs that great destruction is coming. The world shall rock to and fro. The white man will battle against other people in other lands — with those who possessed the first light of wisdom. There will be many columns of smoke and fire such as White Feather has seen the white man make in the deserts not far from here. Only those which come will cause disease and a great dying. Many of my people, understanding the prophecies, shall be safe. Those who stay and live in the places of my people also shall be safe. Then there will be much to rebuild. And soon — very soon afterward — Pahana will return. He shall bring with him the dawn of the Fifth World. He shall plant the seeds of his wisdom in their hearts. Even now the seeds are being planted. These shall smooth the way to the Emergence into the Fifth World.
“But White Feather shall not see it. I am old and dying. You — perhaps will see it. In time, in time…”
The old Indian fell silent. They had arrived at his destination, and Reverend David Young stopped to let him out of the car. They never met again. Reverend Young died in 1976, so he did not live to see the further fulfillment of this remarkable prophecy.
The signs are interpreted as follows: The First Sign is of guns. The Second Sign is of the pioneers’ covered wagons. The Third Sign is of longhorn cattle. The Fourth Sign describes the railroad tracks. The Fifth Sign is a clear image of our electric power and telephone lines. The Sixth Sign describes concrete highways and their mirage-producing effects. The Seventh Sign foretells of oil spills in the ocean. The Eighth Sign clearly indicates the “Hippy Movement” of the 1960s. The Ninth Sign was the U.S. Space Station Skylab, which fell to Earth in 1979. According to Australian eye-witnesses, it appeared to be burning blue.
Another Hopi prophecy warns that nothing should be brought back from the Moon — obviously anticipating the Apollo 11 mission that returned with samples of lunar basalt. It this was done, the Hopi warned, the balance of natural and universal laws and forces would be disturbed, resulting in earthquakes, severe changes in weather patterns, and social unrest. All these things are happening today, though of course not necessarily because of Moon rocks.
The Hopi also predicted that when the “heart” of the Hopi land trust is dug up, great disturbances will develop in the balance of nature, for the Hopi holy land is the microcosmic image of the entire planet; any violations of nature in the Four Corners region will be reflected and amplified all over the Earth.
In 1959, a six-man delegation of traditional Hopi leaders led by the late spiritual leader, Dan Katchongva, traveled to the United Nations Building in New York to fulfill a sacred mission in accordance with ancient Hopi instructions. Because of their prophetic knowledge, the Hopi leaders felt it was time to go east to the edge of their motherland, where “a house of mica” [The United Nations building] would stand at this time, where Great Leaders from many lands would be gathered to help any people who are in trouble.”
They were to go when the motherland of the Hopi and other Indian brothers were about to be taken away from them and their way of life was in danger of being completely destroyed by evil ones among the White Men and by some other Indian brothers who were influenced by the White Race. This is a clear and present danger: the betrayal of Indian-U.S.A. treaties, land sales, and coal and uranium mining are destroying the Hopi land and its people — and all other peoples and lands, in eventual effect…
According to prophecy, at least one, two or three leaders or nations would hear and understand the Hopi warnings, as “It is told that they too should know these ancient instructions”. Upon hearing the message of the Hopi, they would act immediately to correct many wrongs being done to the chosen race — the Red Man who was granted permission to hold in trust all land and life for the Great Spirit. This prophecy would seem to have failed. Hopi prophecy also declares that the doors of the “Glass House” would be closed to them. This was the case at first, though they have delivered their message to the United Nations Assembly since then:
“When the Great Leaders in the Glass House refuse to open the door to you when you stand before it that day, [Repeated, again in 1993] do not be discouraged or turn about on the path you walk, but take courage, determination, and be of great rejoicing in your hearts, for on that day the White Race who are on your land with you have cut themselves from you and thereon lead themselves to the Greatest Punishment at the Day of Purification. Many shall be destroyed for their sins and evil ways. The Great Spirit has decreed it and no one can stop it, change it, or add anything to it. It shall be fulfilled!”
On August 7, 1970, a spectacular UFO sighting was witnessed by dozens of people and photographed by Chuck Roberts of the Prescott (Arizona)”Courier”. This sighting occurred after a “UFO calling” by Paul Solem and several Hopi Indians. This sighting was interpreted by some Hopis as being a partial fulfillment of a certain Hopi prophecy given by the Great Spirit Maasau and inscribed on Second Mesa, warning of the coming of Purification Day, when the true Hopi will be flown to other planets in “ships without wings.”
Hopi prophecy also tells us that there will be a mass migration of Indians northward from Mexico and Central and South America. The migration will be led by a 130-year old Indian named Etchata Etchana. The movement will come after the huge fire and explosion that will herald the advent of the True White Brother.
According to Hopi belief, the survivors of the Great Deluge thousands of years ago split up into four groups that moved north, south, east and west. Only one group completed their journey — to the North Pole and back — under the guidance of a brilliant “star” in which the Great Spirit Maasau traveled. When he landed, he drew a petroglyph on Second Mesa, showing a maiden (with the traditional “butterfly” hair arrangement) riding in a wingless, dome-shaped craft. The petroglyph signified the coming Day of Purification when the true Hopi will fly to other planets in “ships without wings.”
The prophecy also warns that there will be three divisions among the Hopi The first division was in 1906 between the Traditionalists and the Modernists. The Traditionalists were forced to leave Oraibi and move to Hotevilla. The second division took place in the wake of the spectacular appearance of UFOs in August, 1970.
PROPHECY ROCK
Near Oraibi, Arizona, there is a petroglyph known as Prophecy Rock which symbolizes many Hopi prophecies. Its interpretation is:
The large human figure on the left is the Great Spirit. The bow in his left hand represents his instructions to the Hopi to lay down their weapons. The vertical line to the right of the Great Spirit is a time scale in thousands of years. The point at which the great Spirit touches the line is the time of his return.
The “life path” established by the Great Spirit divides into the lower, narrow path of continuous Life in harmony with nature and the wide upper road of white man’s scientific achievements. The bar between the paths, above the cross, is the coming of white men; the Cross is that of Christianity. The circle below the cross represents the continuous Path of Life.
The four small human figures on the upper road represent, on one level, the past three worlds and the present; on another level, the figures indicate that some of the Hopi will travel the white man’s path, having been seduced by its glamour.
The two circles on the lower Path of Life are the “great shaking of the earth” (World Wars One and Two). The swastika in the sun and the Celtic cross represent the two helpers of Pahana, the True White Brother.
The short line that returns to the straight Path of Life is the last chance for people to turn back to nature before the upper road disintegrates and dissipates. The small circle above the Path of Life, after the last chance, is the Great Purification, after which corn will grow in abundance again when the Great Spirit returns. And the Path of Life continues forever…
The Hopi shield in the lower right corner symbolizes the Earth and the Four-Corners area where the Hopi have been reserved. The arms of the cross also represent the four directions in which they migrated according to the instructions of the Great Spirit.
The dots represent the four colors of Hopi corn, and the four racial colors of humanity.
We spend our lives being seduced by the outside world, believing without question that happiness and suffering come from “out there.” In reality, Buddhist teachings explain that they come from the way we perceive and interpret things, not the things themselves.
This deeply held misconception is at the root of our dissatisfaction, self-doubt, anger, depression, anxiety, and the rest. But our minds can change. By becoming deeply familiar with the workings of our own cognitive processes through introspection and learning to deconstruct them – truly, being our own therapists – we can loosen the grip of these neuroses and grow our marvelous potential for contentment, clarity, and courage, which are at the core of our being.

The French poet Paul Valéry once said, “The purpose of psychology is to give us a completely different idea of the things we know best.” In that spirit, consider a situation many of us will find we know too well: You’re sitting at your desk in your office at home. Digging for something under a stack of papers, you find a dirty coffee mug that’s been there so long it’s eligible forcarbon dating. Better wash it. You pick up the mug, walk out the door of your office, and head toward the kitchen. By the time you get to the kitchen, though, you’ve forgotten why you stood up in the first place, and you wander back to your office, feeling a little confused—until you look down and see the cup.
So there’s the thing we know best: The common and annoying experience of arriving somewhere only to realize you’ve forgottenwhat you went there to do. We all know why such forgetting happens: we didn’t pay enough attention, or too much time passed, or it just wasn’t important enough. But a “completely different” idea comes from a team of researchers at the University of Notre Dame. The first part of their paper’s title sums it up: “Walking through doorways causes forgetting.”
Gabriel Radvansky, Sabine Krawietz and Andrea Tamplin seated participants in front of a computer screen running a video game in which they could move around using the arrow keys. In the game, they would walk up to a table with a colored geometric solid sitting on it. Their task was to pick up the object and take it to another table, where they would put the object down and pick up a new one. Whichever object they were currently carrying was invisible to them, as if it were in a virtual backpack.
Sometimes, to get to the next object the participant simply walked across the room. Other times, they had to walk the same distance, but through a door into a new room. From time to time, the researchers gave them a pop quiz, asking which object was currently in their backpack. The quiz was timed so that when they walked through a doorway, they were tested right afterwards. As the title said, walking through doorways caused forgetting: Their responses were both slower and less accurate when they’d walked through a doorway into a new room than when they’d walked the same distance within the same room.
This “doorway effect” appears to be quite general. It doesn’t seem to matter, for instance, whether the virtual environments are displayed on a 66” flat screen or a 17” CRT. In one study, Radvansky and his colleagues tested the doorway effect in real rooms in their lab. Participants traversed a real-world environment, carrying physical objects and setting them down on actual tables. The objects were carried in shoeboxes to keep participants from peeking during the quizzes, but otherwise the procedure was more or less the same as in virtual reality. Sure enough, the doorway effect revealed itself: Memory was worse after passing through a doorway than after walking the same distance within a single room.
Is it walking through the doorway that causes the forgetting, or is it that remembering is easier in the room in which you originally took in the information? Psychologists have known for a while that memory works best when the context during testing matches the context during learning; this is an example of what is called the encoding specificity principle. But the third experiment of the Notre Dame study shows that it’s not just the mismatching context driving the doorway effect. In this experiment (run in VR), participants sometimes picked up an object, walked through a door, and then walked through a second door that brought them either to a new room or back to the first room. If matching the context is what counts, then walking back to the old room should boost recall. It did not.
Bottlenose dolphins appear to engage in formal greeting ceremonies while at sea.
The ceremonies involve exchanges of signature whistles, which likely contain information such as name, sex, age, health status, intent and more.
Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) in Caribbean Sea near Roatan Island. – Corbis
Bottlenose dolphins swap signature whistles with each other when they meet in the open sea, a new study reports, suggesting that these marine mammals engage in something akin to a human conversation.
Earlier research found that signature whistles are unique for each dolphin, with the marine mammals essentially naming themselves and communicating other basic information.
A signature dolphin whistle in human speak, might be comparable to, “Hi, I’m George, a large, three-year-old dolphin in good health who means you no harm.”
The latest study, published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B, is the first to show how free-ranging dolphins in the wild use these whistles at sea. The findings add to the growing body of evidence that dolphins possess one of the most sophisticated communication systems in the animal kingdom, perhaps even surpassing that of humans.
“In my mind, the term ‘language’ describes the human communication system; it is specific to us,” co-author Vincent Janik of the University of St. Andrews Sea Mammal Research Unit, told Discovery News. “It is more fruitful to ask whether there are communication systems with similar complexity. I think the dolphin system is probably as complex as it gets among animals.”
Janik and colleague Nicola Quick studied how bottlenose dolphins in St. Andrews Bay, off the coast of northeast Scotland, communicate with each other. While in a small, quiet boat, the researchers followed the wild dolphins and recorded their vocalizations.
Analysis of the observations and recordings found that the dolphins usually swam together in a group moving slowly and relatively quietly.
“When another group approaches, usually one or more animals start to produce their signature whistles,” Janik said. “We then hear dolphins from the other group calling back with their own signatures, and after or during this counter-calling the animals get together as one group and continue swimming together. Shortly after the union of the groups, they become much more quiet again.”
Most animals have some sort of communication system that allows them to make similar introductions and meetings, but dolphins are unique in that they can invent and copy new sounds. This is “unlike non-human primates, who are stuck with their species-specific repertoire,” he said.
The researchers also noticed that usually just one dolphin from each group would emit a signature whistle before the other group members would join the second group. This might mean that dolphins elect a “spokesman” to represent the entire group during meetings. Such an individual may be an older dolphin, Janik said, but he thinks the other dolphins are not fully silent, and may be using echolocation instead of whistles.
“We don’t know whether echolocation works in this way, but it seems like a viable hypothesis,” he said. “In that case, the whistle exchange is more of a greeting ceremony that communicates a friendly intention and is perhaps not needed to identify the group after the first introduction.”
Dolphins at a distance may rely more upon sounds and echolocation for their communications than visual, scent and other signals. This is likely due to their marine environment and social structure. A dolphin can hear the whistle of another dolphin over a distance of about six miles and with lots of noise in the background.
Heidi Harley, a bottlenose dolphin expert who is a professor of psychology at the New College of Florida, told Discovery News that she believes the findings are key to understanding how dolphins use signature whistles.
“Now we know that dolphins in groups use signature whistles before they join each other,” Harley said. “This is an important piece in the puzzle that we’ve been constructing about signature whistles.”
She added, “I was surprised to learn that the exchanges appeared to be between only a single individual in each group.”
‘Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; Unbelief, in denying them‘
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
This page details my fundamental beliefs, and functions as the site’s basic reference point. As you scroll down, you may notice that it is a lengthy and complex list. However, only the first point is important, for it is the absolute, objective truth that encompasses all subsequent illusory truths. It underlines the origin of the game; all truths thereafter are simply the game’s metaphysical rules and microcosmic particulars. At its core, absolute truth is elementary and unburdened by intellectualism.
Of course, this list represents a set of personal beliefs that may prove inaccurate in both theory and articulation thereof. No mind on Earth knows the truth, because no Earth mind can comprehend the macrocosm. Third density is the density of polarisation rather than comprehension, but if we can grasp the fundamentals whilst incarnated here, then we will unveil the footpaths towards deeper understanding.
Much of what I write below correlates with the Law of One and other sources of resonance, whereas much else is derived from personal insight and observation. Although I doubt that my belief in the objective truth will change, it is possible that my beliefs in the illusory truths will. This is the problem with publishing your beliefs; if they change over time, then all subsequent publications are viewed as jarring contradictions rather than natural evolutions. It would not surprise me if this understanding forced many credibility-conscious researchers to cling, quite reluctantly, to outgrown conjectures and erstwhile convictions. Personally, I endeavour to remain intellectually honest and to allow this list to evolve as I do. Ultimately, however, I do believe that each point herein is true – they have endured the persistent trials of intuition, and were composed with a warm inner accord.
The Objective Truth
Oneness
We are all a part of one infinite consciousness (the Source) that chose to experience itself subjectively in order to explore itself as a creator, and to discover what it is (unconditional love, creativity, harmony and infinity) by experiencing what it is not (hatred, destruction, chaos and limitation). Thus, it created the ‘game.’
All truths hereafter are simply the rules of an illusory game, mere aberrations of this objective truth. They are only ‘real’ insofar as a computer simulation often seems real when played. All that vibrates is illusory, and all except the Source vibrates.
The Illusory Truths
The Game
1.) Life is an illusory game comprised of densities and dimensions. As infinite spiritual beings, we voluntarily choose to play the game and commonly start from the first density, the world of gross matter. As we gradually ascend the densities (the number of main densities remains debatable; I choose seven because I believe that each density correlates with the seven main chakras), we move closer towards convergence with our true nature, the Source.
2.) There are two basic alignments within the game; the ‘positive’ orientation of Service to Others (STO), and the ‘negative’ orientation of Service to Self (STS). The main purpose behind existence in third density (the density in which we are currently incarnated) is to orientate, then consistently follow our chosen path.
3.) Third density is the first and last density wherein STO and STS forces co-exist simultaneously. Thenceforth, each density until sixth branches into STS and STO equivalents. That is, while there is only third density, there is a fourth density positive, fourth density negative, fifth density positive, and fifth density negative. Third density STO-oriented incarnations ascend the positive equivalents, whereas third density STS-oriented incarnations ascend the negative equivalents. Sometimes the polarised densities superficially interact, but the incarnates (sometimes called personas) of each respective equivalent cannot usually perceive the other.
4.) Although neither orientation is ‘better’ than the other, the STO path is required for higher ascension insofar as the qualities that the path cultivates in ourselves – unconditional love, oneness and altruism – are the qualities of our true nature. For most STS entities, but there will come a time – typically in higher fifth density – when they realise the futility of self-service. It may take trillions of years, but the spiritual equivalent of a self-aware black hole will gradually recognise its increasingly unsustainable existence. Thus, before sixth density entry is permitted, the former STS being must choose to embrace, or re-embrace, the altruistic path.
5.) Our soul’s default ‘home’ within the game is higher fifth density, the density of wisdom that corresponds with the throat chakra. This is the non-physical ‘afterlife’ expounded upon by genuine psychic mediums and those who had near death experiences, and it is where we return inbetween incarnations into lower densities. As with all densities after lower fourth, the fifth density is non-physical and our awareness therein is considerably expanded. We understand, for example, that the game is cyclical in nature. As humans, our current perception is a ‘slide’ on a ‘projector’ that our consciousness currently collapses into awareness. Just because we are currently ‘focused’ on one slide, does not mean that the other slides don’t exist within the present moment. In other words, everything within the game happens simultaneously. The notion of linear time is illusory, for we exist – and always have existed – within the eternal present.
6.) There is a difference between a soul and a Higher Self. The former is our subtle body that partially remains in fifth density during incarnation, and partially incarnates with us (effectively ‘superimposing’ itself over our physical body). The latter is our evolved self from the perceived ‘future’ that guides both our souls in fifth density, and our incarnations (‘conscience’). As we ascend the densities we become closer to our Higher Self, and once we attain sixth density, we merge with it. In this completed, harmonious state we attempt to perfect the art of serving others, often by incarnating into lower densities as STS personas (as with the Family, explained later) or, far more commonly, STO personas that help others to reach a greater self-awareness (for example, Siddhartha Gautama or Jesus). Eventually, we may choose to finally merge with the Source in seventh density and return to our truly infinite nature, thus ‘completing’ the game.
Soul Harvests
1.) All densities operate in cycles, and at the end of each cycle there is a harvest of souls. Despite the seemingly morbid connotations of such, harvests are simply the non-judgemental segregation of souls based upon vibratory attainment. If a soul achieves a predominantly STO orientation, it can graduate to fourth density. If a soul achieves an overwhelmingly STS orientation, it can graduate to fourth density negative (which, despite its seemingly elevated status, is ‘below’ third density). Unharvestable souls (that is, those who have not oriented via consistent work on either themselves or others) will undergo another third density cycle until they polarise.
2.) Third density cycles last tens of thousands of years (some sources claim 75,000 years, however I cannot confirm this estimation). Although there are sometimes smaller harvests during a cycle, the most important harvest for soul development is the great harvest that occurs at a cycle’s culmination.
3.) The next great harvest will occur, according to the Mayan calendar and other accurate sources, in 2012. Rather than being a sudden, physically perceivable event like the ‘rapture’ prophesied by Biblical literature, this date simply marks the beginning of soul segregation after physical death. Those who die prior to this time will not be harvested, those who die during or after it will. If a harvestable (i.e. oriented) soul dies prior to harvest, the soul can reincarnate during the remaining years. No harvestable soul unfairly ‘misses’ a due harvest.
4.) When a harvestable soul dies after the harvest date, it experiences the same ‘tunnel of light’ phenomenon described by those who died prior to harvest time, or who experienced near death experiences. The difference between dying post-harvest is that the soul will be ‘tested’ for vibrational stability; the tunnel’s light will become brighter and more loving until the soul cannot appreciate further vibratory ascension. If the soul accepts, without apparent discomfort, a predominantly positive vibration, it can graduate to fourth density positive wherein the vibrations are of a similar rapidity. The few souls who can graduate to fourth density negative (their post-harvest endurance test is similar to above, but light intensity is replaced with darkness) must have achieved an immensely high STS orientation. You don’t need to be perfectly altruistic to graduate to fourth density positive, but you need to be almost completely self-serving to graduate to fourth density negative. it is unlikely that complex, multi-faceted tyrants like Adolf Hitler or Mao Tsetung, for example, graduated to fourth density negative.
5.) The vast majority of souls, at least on third density Earth, are currently unharvestable insofar as they lack orientation. Most people’s lives are saturated with good deeds and bad deeds equally, and have not yet ‘settled’ on consistent altruism or consistent self-service. Fortunately, our existences are saturated with catalysts that can help us polarise.
The main suppliers of catalysts – intentionally or unintentionally – on Earth at present are the various STS and STO forces detailed below:
i) Organised Negative forces: the Family (sometimes called the Illuminati), whose influence is gradually intensifying as harvest approaches. The New World Order, or implementation of global fascism, is the grossest manifestation of their work, although cosmic laws ensure that their power over humanity is limited. The upper echelons of the Family (i.e. an absolute minority) are conscious that they help third density incarnations to polarise by providing catalysts, and are higher density STO souls incarnating as STS personas. I discuss the Family in greater detail later.
ii) Entropic Negative forces: hyperdimensional entities from fourth and fifth density negative, astral vampires, and third density STS entities. Wishful thinking pervades the dark minds of these beings, and they are unaware that their seemingly self-absorbed actions are forever assisting souls’ development. Unlike the Family, who are ‘organised catalyst-providers,’ these beings truly wish to corrupt or destroy us. Many are psychic vampires who feed upon fear, and use third density Earth as a ‘farming ground’ to generate such. As with the Family, there are cosmic laws limiting their influence upon humanity, and most people are attacked by them because they subconsciously willed or attracted it.
i) Organised Positive forces: spirit guides, souls, higher selves, benevolent extraterrestrials and higher density social memory complexes. Our primitive five senses cannot perceive organised STO forces, and one must sincerely request their assistance before their subtle, but notable, influence upon our lives is affected. They are cautious of violating our free will, and often communicate to us in dreams through indirect and ambiguous symbolism. All entities can enjoy the guidance of these beings, but most people are unaware of their existence.
ii) Entropic Positive forces: wanderers, spiritual teachers, third density STO entities. These are the positive forces who help show undecided entities the STO path in physical life.
Because organised positive forces are omnipresent but unseen, and entropic positive forces are seen but rare, it seems probable that most indifferent souls on Earth will either remain unharvestable, or choose the STS path. Regardless of Earth’s seemingly imbalanced STS-STO ratio, however, both orientations will remain equally available. No soul is deprived of the STO path because the planet in which it incarnates is predominantly STS.
Preincarnative Choices
1.) Before incarnating anew, our souls (guided by our Higher Selves) outline the major events of our upcoming life, such as our birth and death, meeting a soul mate, acquiring a new job, being raped, etc. Inbetween these major life events are ‘gross free will zones,’ wherein the persona can exercise his free will without incessant gravitation towards a predetermined event or circumstance. If a persona fails to reach an intended event (such as meeting an important individual at a party), the universe can introduce the event via another outlet (such as meeting the same individual elsewhere, perhaps in a bar). In fact, we could represent a life as a car journey from Point A (birth) to point Z (death), with a satellite navigation system symbolising our intuition. We follow the routes we ourselves mapped, and if we take an alternative route to the one intended, the navigation system automatically re-routes for us.
2.) Personas are created by thought projection, which the soul then infuses with some of its lifeforce. Because a persona contains only a small percentage of the total lifeforce comprising the soul, it is possible and indeed quite common for one soul to have several incarnations operating simultaneously on the same density, during the same period of ‘time.’ Incidences of identical twins are common examples of such, although it is equally common for two or more personas of corresponding origins to never intercept or interact during their respective lifetimes.
3.) Because the game is ultimately about self-understanding and exploration, we ensure that our lifeplans contain an indefinite number of what we consider ‘unpleasant’ experiences. ‘Unpleasant’ experiences are essential because they provide the catalysts needed for an STO persona to see what he is not, and consequently grow from this understanding. When one has learned all he needs to know about a certain negative output, it becomes unnecessary for him to experience similar negative encounters thereafter.
4.) Although we are able in fifth density to freely outline a new life, we must also work with karmic considerations. After our first ever incarnation, all subsequent incarnations’ lifeplans must be shaped by our accumulated ‘positive’ and ‘negative’ karma. Karma is a neutral tool that helps us improve the evolutionary potential of our future lives by directing us towards specific areas of focus highlighted by past life actions. For example, if a soul’s persona once joined a National Socialist movement and consequently harmed other people, the soul may choose to be a victim of similar hate in a subsequent life and learn from the experience.
Dimensions and Densities
1.) Dimensions differ from densities in that they follow a horizontal rather than vertical orientation. Parallel – and therefore undetectable – to our perceived present are an infinite number of dimensions representing every alternative possibility in our third density existence. These parallel realities range from lifelines that are imperceptibly different from those we currently perceive, to lifelines so different that they almost defy comparison. When you make a decision that mirrors a decision made by the other ‘you’ in an alternate dimension, a bridging or convergence of dimensions occurs and you get ‘déjà vu’ – the collapsing of an alternative ‘you’ into the current, perceivable ‘you.’ When an entity time travels, he will understand that changing the past does not affect this lifeline’s present; instead, it affects the present of an alternative dimension that, in accord with the law of probabilities, is extremely unlikely to intercept the one from which he came. Thus, you will not instantly vanish from existence if you travelled back in time and killed your parents, and the future ‘you’ will not instantly die if the past ‘you’ committed suicide.
Objectivity and Subjectivity
1.) Truth cannot be subjective, and therefore the quest for truth is the quest for objectivity. However, there are two forms of objectivity, and only the first is attainable within the game:
i) Illusory Objectivity: Illusory objectivity is the closest form of objectivity to which we can currently aspire. It is achieved by following our lifeplan as closely as possible, so that our lives closely resemble what our souls intended. The best approach for this is to remain emotionally detached and maintain a non-judgemental outlook, to be open to all possible theories (this will prevent your reality from filtering potentially useful and truthful literature), to avoid manipulating the Law of Attraction, and, most of all, to follow your intuition at all times. Unless we can simultaneously experience everything within the macrocosm, and therefore be every possible mind, alternative, belief, sound, colour, density, and possibility, true objectivity is unattainable. If we have a different perspective from another soul, subjectivity dominates us. To believe otherwise is wishful thinking, and, ironically, wishful thinking is a prime distorter of reality.
ii.) True Objectivity: Only by simultaneously experiencing the game’s infinite number of subjective experiences can we achieve true objectivity. Thus, only the Source (seventh density) can achieve it.
Conspiratorial Truths
The Family and the New World Order
1.) Since the beginning of our third density cycle, a network of interrelated bloodlines have guided and controlled humanity with the ultimate intention of installing a global fascist state (the ‘New World Order’). Whether it be the sixties ‘Hippie’ movement, the World Wars, Ghandi’s liberation of India, the LA Riots (electromagnetically-induced mind control), the introduction of the Internet, the Lamaist theocracy of old Tibet, 9/11, the Women’s Liberation Movement, or the composition of key religious texts, the Family have either been substantially or wholly involved. Many of these events are applications of the Hegelian Dialectic – the greatest and most popular mass mind control technique – and all serve to advance the fascist agenda. (Note: Although most conspiracy researchers call these bloodlines the ‘Illuminati,’ I believe that this term has gradually accumulated nebulous connotations. It has become a lexical silhouette onto which all our fears and insecurities are superimposed. I feel that the term ‘the Family’ is purer, and better emphasises the group’s patrimonial essence).
2.) As with all true powerlines, the Family have remained hidden from the outset. Instead, they appoint comparatively powerless, non-bloodline puppets – presidents, kings, queens, chairmen, artists, writers, scientists, martyrs – who are happy (or, in some cases, blackmailed) to publically advance the agenda in exchange for earthly wealth and respect. Most of these puppets (examples include Barack Obama, Damien Hirst, Charlemagne, Winston Churchill, Adolf Hitler, John Lennon etc.), and the secret orders and institutions to which they often belong (the Bilderberg Group, the Knights of Malta, the upper echelons of Freemasonry [33rd until 360th degree], the Jesuit Order, the Roman papal families [the Houses of Breakspear, Orsini, Cecil, de Medici, etc.], the Californian Satanic powerbases, and so forth) have consciously chosen the STS path, or are STS Wanderers. Many are born without consciences and are clinical psychopaths, although society seldom recognises this fact due to the longstanding misconception that all humans are fundamentally alike.
3.) Unlike their puppets, the upper Family belong to a higher density STO social memory complex that was appointed to serve humanity by incarnating as STS personas who, through their controlling and ‘negative’ actions, provide us with catalysts that help us to polarise or refine our evolution. Although these catalysts will increase in number and severity as the great harvest approaches, the Family’s control never reaches the stage whereby incarnates can no longer exercise their free will.
4.) Family-organised events are often deliberately imperfectly executed to help slumbering minds awaken and polarise. For example, truthseekers often wonder why 9/11 was sloppily organised when some of humanity’s finest minds surely planned it. Why has the Pentagon withheld CCTV footage of what hit it, when advanced digital technology could have inserted a realistic computer-generated Boeing 747 into the video to support the official story? Why were Dick Cheney and George W. Bush forced to improvise their alibis when questioned (and consequently produce contradictory statements) when they could easily have been granted watertight, pre-planned answers? Why are seven of the alleged Muslim hijackers now officially revealed as alive and living in Iran? Nothing in politics happens by accident. The government does not make mistakes. 9/11 could have been so flawlessly executed that even the most jaded of conspiriologists would embrace the official story. If inconsistencies are apparent, then they are intended. The puppets may express disdain at them (mainly because they have to deal with public queries), but their masters always insure that the official stories are penetrable.
5.) The more we research and understand the extent of our manipulation, the more we can free ourselves – and others – from its grip. But remember that these events are also designed to distract us from looking within. Researching world events is important, but we cannot let it consume our lives. We must always prioritise our spiritual development, and remain emotionally detached from the Family’s holographic theatre. Likewise, informing others of the Orwellian agenda is a noble ambition, but we must place emphasis foremost on desired solutions. If we simply expose the agenda and then spend our days scouring newspapers and insider publications for confirmation of its procession, then we assist the truth no greater than the much-read columnist who opines that terrorists caused 9/11. Thoughts and words individualise our realities, and our personal realities determine the consensual reality. If our individual realities are shaped by fear, what emotion therefore shapes the consensual reality?
artificialeyes.tv is an Istanbul / Vienna based project of video artist and software developer Michael Parenti, aka exiledsurfer artificialeyes.tv’s aim is to bring people closer to the art form of Live Video Mixing (known as “VJ’ing”) through the creation, performance and distribution of unique and engaging audio-visual interpretations of contemporary culture. Check out the Loopcast for sample clips from our live performances.
Born in Malibu California, Michael Newton Parenti has been involved with music and fashion since managing the seminal LA band “The Surf Punks”. After studying communication Theory and International Affairs at Pepperdine University,he left LA in 1992 to settle in vienna, working as a music journalist, music convention producer, and later forged a career as a music video director / producer, grounding in the process the boutique agency Uncultured American Bastard Media, gsmbh. After producing 52 hours of tv programming about the austrian music scene for tv stations in austria and germany, as well as directing over 200 music videos in europe, and commercials for Gibson Guitars and Marshal Amplifiers, he was a pioneering member of europe’s first video web-streaming company, webfreetv.com, and went on to do 3G multimedia development for europe’s largest internet consultancy at the time, framfab.com, (famous for the launch of Nike Shox) After the bubble burst, a pink slip allowed him to shift his focus to the branding and marketing of an urban underground anti-fashion label together with german fashion designer Katha Harrer, called km/a, which became well known for its outrageous multimedia performances in lieu of the traditional catwalk. It was here that Michael first started performing with real time video manipulation software such as videodelic and Johnny Dekam’s VDMX, leading him to a career as an internationally booked VJ. Since 1998, he has performed with the likes of Jamiroquai, Ladytron, John Digweed, Carl Craig, Richard Dorfmeister, Sven Väth, Stereo Total and over 300 other DJ’s and bands in Europe, South America, and The Middle East. Michael currently is based in Istanbul, Turkey, where he has continued working for both advertising and media agencies as a freelance creative director, garnering two Media Lions in Cannes for his efforts on behalf of OMD Turkey, as well as continuing his career as a VJ. His most current project includes the VJ collective artificialeyes.tv Michael is represented as a video artist and photographer by Pi Artworks exhibiting this year in paris, cologne, and istanbul. in his new role as the Special Consul to Turkey for the micronation State of Sabotage grounded in 2003 by austrian performance artist Robert Jelinek, Michael curates shows including turkish and international artists, the most recent of which included works by HR Giger, Jonathan Meese, Irfan Önurmen, and Joseph Beuys.
Let’s try Dr. Leary‘s perspective on these mysteries.
To understand neurological space, Dr. Leary assumes that the nervous system consists of eight potential circuits, or “gears,” or mini-brains. Four of these brains are in the usually active left lobe and are concerned with our terrestrial survival; four are extraterrestrial, reside in the “silent” or inactive right lobe, and are for use in our future evolution. This explains why the right lobe is usually inactive at this stage of our development, and why it becomes active when the person ingests psychedelics.
We will explain each of the eight “brains” briefly.
I. THE BIO-SURVIVAL CIRCUIT
This invertebrate brain was the first to evolve (2 to 3 billion years ago) and is the first activated when a human infant is born. It programs perception onto an either-or grid divided into nurturing-helpful Things (which it approaches) and noxious-dangerous Things (which it flees, or attacks). The imprinting of this circuit sets up the basic attitude of trust or suspicion which will ever after trigger approach or avoidance.
How to Tell a Young Soul from an Old Soul by Jose Stevens, Ph.D. (Who is a long time observer and reader of the Edgar Cayce Readings.)
“The following is a brief description of the characteristics of five basic soul levels. Each level has many lifetimes of lessons to teach us wisdom through trial and error.”
Dolphins and Children with Autism Communicate the Same Way
by Jean Charles Genet
Researcher and autism survivor Jean Genet believes that dolphins and children with autism communicate in much the same way. Genet believes that the reason a child with autism cannot maintain a presence in (our) reality is due the fact that the brain of a child with autism loses the ability to ground to its physical body. This grounding stabilizes the different frequencies the brain uses to maintain a mental, physical, and emotional connection to our reality.
Mystery of the Silver Rings
by Don White, Creator of Project Delphis
The young dolphin gives a quick flip of her head, and an undulating silver ring appears–as if by magic–in front of her. The ring is a solid, toroidal bubble two feet across–and yet it does not rise to the surface! It stands erect in the water like the rim of a magic mirror, or the doorway to an unseen dimension. For long seconds the dolphin regards its creation, from varying aspects and angles, with its vision and sonar. Seemingly making a judgement, the dolphin then quickly pulls a small silver donut from the larger structure, which collapses into small bubbles. She then “pushes” the donut, which stays just inches ahead of her rostrum, perhaps 20 feet over a period of up to 10 seconds. Then, stopping again, she regards the twisting ring for a last time and bites it–causing it to collapse into a thousand tiny bubbles which head–as they should–for the water’s surface. After a few moments of reflection, she creates another.
