Preface

A Few Notes While Reading This Book

Dear reader, first I want to make it very clear that this book does NOT favor any religion at all, and it is not about any religion. If you have not read the quotes on the previous pages, please do so. This book is about spiritual, esoteric, and scientific knowledge — not religion.

Granted, many religions hold some of the keys to the information of the spiritual (Matrix) realm, but they make no effort to teach them. For this reason, religious books — and books such as the Bible, used by religions — should not be completely ignored as valuable sources of information. What most definitely should be ignored is the presentation and interpretation provided by religions. Keep in mind, while reading this book, that I was as much an atheist as you are: a non-believer in all that hocus-pocus spiritual, esoteric, religious junk. I am an engineer by profession, a research scientist, and a lawyer; in fact, if you are reading this book on a computer, chances are good that part of the software that allows your computer to run was written by me.

In this book you will find references to LOTS of real quantum physics — not just what someone says or believes, but real facts that explain, in plenty of detail, the how and what of our existence on this planet: who and what we really are, and where we are headed. You will also find detailed references to predictions, based on scientific evidence, of what is happening and will happen in the years before and after 2012, with plenty of pointers to the detailed scientific evidence for the how and why of the huge increase in earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, volcanic activity, weather changes, Earth changes, and much more.

Also keep in mind that you probably received this book as a gift from someone who cares about you, but who has not been able to find the ideal words to talk to you about this subject of the utmost importance. If you bought the book on your own, then I probably do not need to convince you much of the value of reading it. Ninety-five percent of people in one U.S. survey said they believe in God — which means about 5 percent are atheists.

This book focuses on enlightening and guiding the 5 percent who have evaded all information related to the spiritual arena: all religions, mystics, magic, occultism, alchemy, astrology, numerology, sacred geometry, free energy, the stories of channelers such as Edgar Cayce, UFOs, auras, yoga, aliens, Breatharians, witchcraft, Wicca, dowsing, Ouija boards, tarot cards, parapsychology, ghosts, hypnosis, apparitions, astral travel, near-death experiences, and so on. This book is for those who think those things are a fraud — and for those who are rational, open-minded, and believe in the empirical part of the scientific method. Try them, and decide for yourself, unless you prefer to let others do all your thinking for you. Remember: all great scientific breakthroughs were fought tooth and nail by the “keepers of the status quo” of their time.

Edgar Cayce performed in-depth psychic readings for many people, with an unparalleled accuracy that earned him the oft-quoted status of “America’s Greatest Psychic.” Once in a trance, Cayce could medically diagnose people at a distance whom he had never met, and prescribe accurate herbal treatments that neither he nor anyone else had previously heard of.

Aura: the human being does have an egg-shaped “energy body,” composed of this medium, which many trained seers can both see and heal; disease conditions appear in this body first, before they become physical.

One thing I want to make very clear is that this book is NOT about religion, nor does it support or sponsor any ancient way of thinking. Many people consider the word “spirit” or “spiritual” to be the province of religion, but I insist on drawing a clear distinction between spirituality and religion.

Spirituality has to do with the nonphysical, immaterial aspect of our being — with our energies, our essences, and the part of us that existed before, and will exist after, the disintegration of our body — and with the facts of our universe and cosmos, also known as quantum physics. Religion has institutionalized spirituality, and done so in the most perverse way possible; much of what goes on in its name concerns the perpetuation of the institutions more than the welfare of the individual.

Quantum physics is the new science that is providing scientific proof of the fourth density (also referred to as a dimension), known as the spiritual realm.

There are two ways of knowing reality. The first is the rational, deductive, argumentative, intellectual thinking that is the hallmark of science and of our patriarchal Western culture; some call this the One Mind. The second is the non-rational, image-driven, intuitive way of thinking, commonly accepted as part of mysticism and religion. Try to use both ways of knowing as you work to understand the topics presented in this book. Do NOT be afraid to accept the truth about yourself when a minor fault or shortcoming of yours is exposed. We are all here on a learning journey, to explore and learn new things — among them, the way of knowing reality, and, most important, to recall the gods we really are. More on this in Chapter 13, “Who? What? Where? Is God.”

In this book we provide you with additional ways to sense, beyond your five senses — a new window and door into another reality, which in time you will realize is the true reality, and that this one you are living now is just an illusion, a dream created by your mind, which responds to the Matrix programming.

Though you do NOT know it now, there IS magic in all we do. If only you knew that there is magic in all your actions, you would change your actions to work in your favor. Magic is simply Conscious Creation: you do magical things by consciously willing them so. More on this in Chapter 9, “The Art and Practice of Conscious Creation and Our Belief System.”

I say “we,” since the source of the information presented here comes from many masters.

The Matrix is described throughout this book. See also David Icke, Children of the Matrix, for an excellent, detailed explanation.

Magic: The physical world, however, is very dense and of a much lower vibration than the inner mind-worlds of the Astral and Mental spheres; therefore more energy, concentration, and focus is required to bring about a manifestation observable in the physical world. Many people will have heard of “Magic.” We should note straightaway, however, that by true Magic — as practiced from time immemorial — we do not mean stage illusionists, prestidigitators, conjurors, and other such entertainers, but rather Magic in its very truest, highest, and most sacred form. Magic is in reality a sacred science; the word “Magic” originates from the “Magi,” who fully understood and applied natural universal laws in order to bring about effects that many might consider miraculous.

One last note: most of the knowledge in this book is not mine. I am not the mastermind who created it — nor, I think, did any of the masters ever create any of it. They, and I, only pass on what we learn from the ALL; we simply share with you the secrets of the universe as WE have found them to work for us.

To my surprise, the first few times I was brave enough to try some of what I then thought were crazy, perhaps stupid, experiments in the spiritual arena, I found that they did work — that miracles do happen. In fact, the word “miracle” is, to me, synonymous with ignorance, since there really is no such thing as a miracle. A miracle is simply something that happens without a scientific explanation yet; something not yet labeled by modern science, because modern science barely knows of, or accepts, such evidence at present. But it will, and it is doing so faster than you think. Magic is your ability to manifest your own creation — a word commonly used for lack of a scientific one to describe it properly.

When indifference builds a fortified wall around us, we become spiritually nearsighted and sociologically hard-of-hearing. Then, when help and answers do come, we neglect to listen and fail to see the obvious solutions that were right in front of us all along. Despair can be rectified through exposure to natural elements, the company of loving friends and family, augmented by a complete retreat from cities and electronic equipment. A smug indifference, however — born of pride and egoistic thought — is a hard nut to crack. The know-it-all is difficult to reach; as we can plainly see, their “inner rooms” are filled to capacity, bursting with all they know, so there is no room left for new ideas. They cannot escape, trapped inside all that clutter of knowledge; there is no way out of that crowded house.Elder H. Alfred Goolsbee, The Myth, Magic & Murder of ORMUS

2026 Notes

It is a fascinating experience to read one's own book twenty years later and observe how one's mind has changed on some subjects. Therefore, the reason for a second edition. It makes me wonder what I would say about my own book twenty years from now, would I write yet another edition.

The most important key point of them all I have learned in the past few years is that we live in various timelines simultaneously. In fact, analyst Clif High, which I consider one of the brightest men alive, believes we have the potential of switching between 10,000 or more timelines every second. This reality is created from trillions of pieces per second. -- Most important: That we are able to switch between these time lines just with our thoughts. Think very negative and you move to the WWIII scenario, think too positive and you move to an artificial paradise. Therefore, my recommendation is to be very careful about what you think and ask for, because we are gods with the power to create our reality. Basic rule of thumb for most is that extremes are not good, the extreme of wishful thinking that God or Jesus is coming to create paradise on earth for the ultra lazy IMHO is not the best option, expect if you still need to learn bad lessons from that.

How to Weigh What You Read — Here and Everywhere Else

Before you begin, I want to hand you something more useful than any single chapter in this book: a way of deciding what to believe. You are going to need it here, because you are about to read about dowsing, channeling, past lives, orgone and a good deal else that you were taught to dismiss. I am not asking you to accept any of it. I am asking you to weigh it properly, and that is a skill.

The mind cannot take in everything, so it filters, and it filters according to what it already expects to find. That is not a flaw in you; it is how attention works. But it does mean that most of us go through life confirming what we already thought, and genuinely never seeing the rest. Six habits help. They come from the work of the writer known as A Midwestern Doctor, and I have found all six worth practising.

First, learn which information deserves your attention. Not everything you meet has to be settled. The people who do this well for a living — the good analysts — are not the ones who read the most; they are the ones who can tell, out of a thousand data points, which three matter. That sense can be developed, and it is developed by practising, not by reading faster.

Second, know the bias of your source. Every source has one. I have one, and so does every author I cite in these pages. Recognising it is not a reason to discard a source — it is what lets you use one. Once you know which way a writer leans, you can read them for what they know and correct for the lean, which is far more valuable than looking for a source with no bias at all. There isn't one.

Third, notice diminishing returns. Once you have seen the pattern in a subject, further material of the same kind adds very little. Much of what feels like research is really the comfort of rereading what you already agree with. When you notice it, move on to something that might change your mind.

Fourth, drill down to the core claim. Most arguments you encounter are not really about what they appear to be about. Ask what is actually being asserted, in one sentence, stripped of the tone and the adjectives. A surprising number of disputes dissolve at that step, and the ones that survive it are the ones worth your time.

Fifth — and if you take only one of these, take this one — ask whether what has been presented can actually justify the claim being made from it, or whether a set of loose data points has simply been arranged so as to suggest something. This is the single most useful question I know. It cuts through advertising, through the news, through most of what passes for scientific reporting, and it will cut through some of what is in this book too. Use it here. I would rather you tested what I say than believed it because I said it.

Sixth, look after the instrument you are doing all this with. Your capacity to weigh anything at all depends on the state of your nervous system. Sleep properly, keep the blue light of screens out of your evening, and spend some time each day with the mind quiet — Chapter 7 covers meditation and mental relaxation in detail, and it belongs here as much as it belongs there. A tired, agitated mind does not weigh evidence. It grabs whichever answer costs the least effort, and then defends it.

There is one more reason these matter now more than they did when I first wrote this book. There is vastly more information available than any person can process, and when a mind is overwhelmed it does not become more careful — it does the opposite. It retreats either to a simple explanation that requires nothing of it, or to whatever the crowd around it believes. Notice that both of those feel like certainty from the inside. Nuance is harder work: it asks you to hold several premises together at once. A simple truth needs only one premise you already agreed with, and usually the conclusion that the other side is stupid or evil.

Apply all six to this book. If a chapter here cannot survive that, it does not deserve your belief, and I would sooner you found that out than took my word for anything. What I ask is only that you apply the same standard to what you were taught as to what you are about to read. Most of us never have.
