Global Perspective interview

Posted on by Frank DeMarco

Did an interesting interview Friday night with Ken Jackson, host of  Global Perspective, a blogtalk show on Freedomizer Radio.

Freedomizer Radio appears to specialize in pursuing conspiracy theories, which is not exactly at the center of what I spend my time talking about. And yet, perhaps it wasn’t such a misfit, either. People who are unwilling to consider conspiracy theories are often unwilling to consider that things may be different than they appear on the surface. And if that isn’t true in psychic exploration, I don’t know what is. We talked a good deal about the process of communicating with the other side. Ken Jackson asked interesting questions, and we had a good time. Find the interview here: http://blogtalk.vo.llnwd.net/o23/show/2/940/show_2940209.mp3. My segment begins 7:35 into the link, and ends about half an hour before the end.

MacLeish — “Conversation in a Belfry”

Posted on by Frank DeMarco

Empires are not created — and do not decline — in a day or two. Neither are free republics lost so quickly. It takes time. Years ago, in going through old journals, I found this poem copied out, by Archibald MacLeish, titled “Conversation in a Belfry,” from Ten Conversations,  written post-Watergate. Each passing year only goes to show how truly he saw.

Conversation in a Belfry

Centennial bell that will not ring,

Tell me why your iron tongue

Rusts in the rain, your mouth is dumb.

Why are you silent, bell?

                                                  For shame.

You are not shamed.

                                            Not I but you.

We? With all we’ve done and do?

We’ve ruled ourselves two hundred years.

No name on earth is proud as ours.

 

It was your fathers’ pride that ruled:

Their sons are tricked and lied to, fooled

As Lincoln said no people could be –

All of them – always – for their good!

 

But still we’re free. Ring out, O ring!

 

What man is free when fraud is king?

 

Our souls are ours: our minds our own.

 

While someone listens on the telephone?

 

This is John Adams’ holy land…

 

John Adams would have seen you damned!

 

When Jefferson’s immortal word…

 

Jefferson’s immortal word

Is yet to hear. It will be heard

But not by those who sell his soul.

 

You ring now, bell.

                                        I toll, I toll.

 

One year on, ‘ghosts’ stalk Japan’s tsunami city

Posted on by Frank DeMarco

This doesn’t surprise me in the slightest. I remember seeing a similar story after the Indonesian tsunami a few years ago that killed so many people so suddenly. Of course many dismiss perception of ghosts as superstition, and fear of ghosts often is superstition. Nonetheless, some perceive more than others, and it would be well not to dismiss these reports too lightly, just because “science” says they can’t be true. In fact, they can be, and sometimes are.

One year on, ‘ghosts’ stalk Japan’s tsunami city

By Miwa Suzuki | AFP – Tue, Feb 28, 2012

A year after whole neighbourhoods full of people were killed by the Japanese tsunami, rumours of ghosts swirl in Ishinomaki as the city struggles to come to terms with the awful tragedy.

Communities of individuals

Posted on by Frank DeMarco

This article interests me chiefly because it seems to correlate with what the guys upstairs have been telling me for some time now: We are not individuals so much as communities. That’s not what the authors of this study would say, of course, but it seems to me that their study indirectly supports what you’ll find in The Cosmic Internet, not to mention so many posts on this blog. Like so many articles of interest, this one came to my attention via the daily SchwartzReport.

Physical and non-physical

Posted on by Frank DeMarco

By way of Intuitive Linked Communication (ILC), this discussion with Carl Jung earlier this week. Sometimes you play with an idea for some time, thinking you understand it, and suddenly realize (with a little help from your friends) that it’s bigger and more important than you had thought it.

Deepak Chopra: Consciousness is all

Posted on by Frank DeMarco

This, via the Monroe Institute’s website, is Deepak Chopra explaining in four minutes the scientific reasons to believe that the primary basis of existence is neither matter nor energy (whatever “energy” might be, divorced from its context of matter!) but consciousness. I am no physicist, but this feels right. I suppose that, in context, “feels right” means “restates what I already believe.” Well, so be it. Four minutes, no more:

Graham Hancock – It is written in stone

Posted on by Frank DeMarco

My friend Larry Giannou sent me this link to Graham Hancock’s presentation given to the 2012 Tipping Point Prophets Conference with the comment, “Thought you might enjoy this” — He was so right!

I had the pleasure of listening to Hancock, Robert Bauval, Colin Wilson, John Anthony West, Rand Flem-Ath and others in 1995, at a conference called Return to the Source. And I have for years been an interested and indeed impatient observer of the process of trying to get what has been called Forbidden Archaeology into the mainstream.

Watch this one and a half hour presentation and two things will likely happen. 1) You’ll be fascinated, and 2) you’ll start looking for more on the subject, which these days (courtesy of the Internet) is easier than ever to find.
