1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000 How did this all start for you? Let's go back to the beginning. 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:08,680 Well, you want to go back to the beginning? We're filming in Denver, Colorado, and it began right here in Denver, Colorado, in the Rocky Mountain area. 3 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:19,420 I was, a lot of our viewers don't know this, behind the scenes, I worked in the defense industry during the last years of the Cold War, a very frightening time. 4 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:20,360 Indeed. 5 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:39,860 In the history of our world, when the two superpowers at the time did the unthinkable and actually created, they spent the energy, the manpower, the resources, the technology to create the weapons to microwave the earth many times over in the event that a nuclear war ever occurred. 6 00:00:39,860 --> 00:00:54,040 It was during that time, George, I was, I mean, if you can imagine, I found myself working behind the scenes supporting, writing software for the missile program, supporting that effort by day and by night. 7 00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:03,940 Ever since I was young, I've been a scholar of some of our most ancient and cherished spiritual traditions and some of the most mysterious texts of our past. 8 00:01:03,940 --> 00:01:25,600 And I have felt for a very long time, George, that if we knew where to look in the past, that we would find the key and perhaps a message from our ancestors that would help us to transcend the differences that have led to the great wars of the 20th and now the 21st century. 9 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,140 And at that time, the kind of war that I was supporting. 10 00:01:28,140 --> 00:01:38,720 So it was during that time that I began a search and a research of comparative traditions, helping us to understand our origins. 11 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:53,040 Because, again, my thinking was if we could find a way to show beyond any reasonable doubt, beyond the superficial, outward demonstrations, that we are actually, we are one. 12 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:59,080 And for some people, it's a very new age sounding hope or wish. 13 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:06,180 But I think there is a lot of power in showing that that unification is possible, helping us to transcend those differences. 14 00:02:06,340 --> 00:02:15,040 So my journey began to take me back into older and older and older texts, cutting through the red tape. 15 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,420 And we're almost obsessed with it. 16 00:02:16,420 --> 00:02:17,040 And the religions. 17 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,940 Well, I would say passionate. 18 00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:21,800 I prefer passion over obsession. 19 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,040 My wife would probably say I was obsessed. 20 00:02:24,460 --> 00:02:30,280 So because the clues, every time I would find the clue, George, and I think, OK, maybe this is it. 21 00:02:30,620 --> 00:02:32,360 And then it's not going to go anywhere else. 22 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,860 It would open the door to something else. 23 00:02:33,860 --> 00:02:34,180 Another clue. 24 00:02:34,180 --> 00:02:35,140 And open the door to something else. 25 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,740 And that led me from the textbooks onto a series of journeys. 26 00:02:38,920 --> 00:02:41,040 My first journey was in Egypt in 1986. 27 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:55,080 And what I found in Egypt on the temple walls led me into the highlands of the Andes Mountains of southern Peru, which directed me right into the Tibetan plateau and the temples and the monasteries in Tibet. 28 00:02:55,080 --> 00:03:07,940 But as a scientist, my thinking is, if I'll speak about myself personally, if I can find the information least disturbed by the modern world, that's where it would be most intact. 29 00:03:08,180 --> 00:03:13,360 And to go to those places, you've got to make the effort to get there. 30 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:19,400 There's some of the most magnificent, beautiful, remote, isolated, pristine places remaining on the world. 31 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:20,680 Did I say remote, by the way? 32 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,980 Because they are. 33 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,980 But it's in the monasteries, in the nunneries, where many of these texts are preserved. 34 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:28,420 And they've been largely forgotten. 35 00:03:28,980 --> 00:03:30,260 It's really amazing texts. 36 00:03:30,540 --> 00:03:31,300 Well, they are. 37 00:03:31,660 --> 00:03:47,400 So as I began my search, my thinking was, if we could really pin down our origins, you know, the science, the best science of the 21st century is now overturning so many of Darwin's ideas. 38 00:03:47,660 --> 00:03:49,900 And by the way, Darwin was open to that. 39 00:03:49,900 --> 00:03:52,520 He was willing for his ideas to fall. 40 00:03:52,660 --> 00:03:55,960 He viewed them as stepping stones toward greater understandings. 41 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,300 So Darwin was okay with that. 42 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:07,940 And I began to see a connection in the texts that was not accounted for in the theories of evolution. 43 00:04:08,540 --> 00:04:11,640 And it is a connection that is very controversial today. 44 00:04:12,260 --> 00:04:14,760 Now, Darwin didn't have access to the tools and the technology. 45 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,220 He certainly didn't have the DNA databases that we have today. 46 00:04:19,220 --> 00:04:19,240 Of course, he didn't have anything. 47 00:04:19,700 --> 00:04:21,280 So this is where I began. 48 00:04:21,540 --> 00:04:26,360 Part of my job in software development was in writing pattern recognition software. 49 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,240 And I've searched patterns ever since I was a kid. 50 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:30,860 So you applied it to this. 51 00:04:30,980 --> 00:04:31,120 Sure. 52 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:32,500 It comes very naturally for me. 53 00:04:32,580 --> 00:04:37,460 I used to, you know, look at patterns on, flashing patterns on blinking lights on Christmas trees. 54 00:04:37,980 --> 00:04:39,380 And, I mean, you know, you see them everywhere. 55 00:04:39,380 --> 00:04:47,560 So I thought, if there are patterns in nature, and we are nature, they should show up in our DNA. 56 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:55,300 And it was in the 80s when the DNA databases, we could actually begin to access them without being part of the research projects. 57 00:04:55,300 --> 00:05:06,480 So to make a long story really brief, what I found was in one of the most obscure and ancient of the texts, a book called the Sefer Yetzirah. 58 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:07,820 What is that? 59 00:05:07,900 --> 00:05:13,000 It is a Hebrew text that has only been translated a couple of times with a couple of authors into English. 60 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,740 It's so mysterious, George, that very few scholars even want to talk about it because they don't know what to say about it. 61 00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:19,820 It's a brief text. 62 00:05:19,860 --> 00:05:21,320 It's only about 2,000 lines. 63 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:29,180 And it is written as if an observer were present the day that the Creator created humankind, step by step. 64 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,560 However, it's written in a language that doesn't make a lot of sense. 65 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,420 Is it like Genesis or totally different? 66 00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:35,800 It's very different from Genesis. 67 00:05:36,300 --> 00:05:43,660 I think Genesis is probably partially derived from this text, the Sefer Yetzirah, which is the book of creation. 68 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,680 It literally translates to the book of creation. 69 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:52,880 So it was as if someone were watching the Creator actually create the first person. 70 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:53,600 Doing what he did. 71 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:54,540 Doing what he did. 72 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,360 But it is not written scientifically. 73 00:05:58,100 --> 00:06:07,800 The bottom line to what the text is saying is that through language, humankind was created. 74 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,680 And that doesn't make a lot of sense. 75 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:24,420 If you take it literally, as I began to follow the instructions as the author created them in this text, and this, George, to me, this is the power of transcending the boundaries between science and spirituality. 76 00:06:25,020 --> 00:06:30,820 Because if a scientist only looked at the elements of life, you'd never make this discovery. 77 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,880 If you only look at the spiritual text, you would never make this discovery. 78 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:39,100 But it's by blending the two together and allowing them to tell the story. 79 00:06:39,840 --> 00:06:46,880 So we today at Modern Science, we talk about life as the result of elements. 80 00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:50,140 And we describe elements through word and through number. 81 00:06:50,620 --> 00:06:52,660 So we have the periodic table, for example. 82 00:06:52,820 --> 00:06:56,940 Hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, carbon makes up the DNA of our bodies. 83 00:06:57,500 --> 00:06:58,500 Those are the words. 84 00:06:58,980 --> 00:07:02,500 And for every one of those words, there are a lot of numbers that may be applied. 85 00:07:02,500 --> 00:07:05,900 There are 17 different numeric parameters that go with each of those. 86 00:07:07,140 --> 00:07:08,240 So put that aside. 87 00:07:08,380 --> 00:07:14,400 When you go back into the ancient text and the Sefer Yitzra specifically, they did exactly the same thing. 88 00:07:14,540 --> 00:07:19,600 They talked about the power of the letters of very specific alphabets. 89 00:07:20,380 --> 00:07:30,300 Now, it doesn't make a lot of sense to modern scholars until we begin to understand that every ancient alphabet, bar none, that I have found so far, 90 00:07:30,300 --> 00:07:37,180 has always, from day one with each letter, had a number, a mysterious number associated with the letters. 91 00:07:37,300 --> 00:07:38,660 We don't know where the numbers came from. 92 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:39,620 They never change. 93 00:07:40,340 --> 00:07:40,660 A code? 94 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,100 It's a unique numeric code. 95 00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:48,420 The study of that code is called Gematria, and it was actually formalized. 96 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:53,220 The laws, 32 laws of Gematria were formed in the second century. 97 00:07:53,340 --> 00:07:55,120 They were formalized in the second century. 98 00:07:55,900 --> 00:08:00,100 And the only way Gematria works is you cannot deviate from these laws. 99 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,840 There are specific laws that apply to the numbers. 100 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:08,180 So our ancestors were also talking about life using words and numbers. 101 00:08:08,340 --> 00:08:11,520 So they had the letters of the alphabets and this mysterious number. 102 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,440 We're using the periodic table. 103 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:14,720 We've got a whole bunch of numbers. 104 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:15,040 Right. 105 00:08:15,420 --> 00:08:20,940 My job was to find out which of those numbers equates to the numbers in the ancient alphabets. 106 00:08:20,940 --> 00:08:30,240 And if I could do that, my thinking was it would be possible to look at human DNA, carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and different combinations of that, 107 00:08:30,620 --> 00:08:37,300 and substitute the ancient letters for the numbers based upon this correlation. 108 00:08:38,620 --> 00:08:44,080 This, in retrospect, it was simple, but not knowing that it took years. 109 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,020 It took me 12 years. 110 00:08:45,100 --> 00:08:45,900 And did you break it? 111 00:08:45,900 --> 00:08:51,700 To find what we now know is that the atomic mass of the elements, the numbers of the atomic mass, 112 00:08:51,820 --> 00:08:56,140 are the numbers that equate to the mysterious letters in the ancient alphabets. 113 00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:06,940 What that means is when you look at human DNA or the DNA of any life, it is made of hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, carbon. 114 00:09:06,940 --> 00:09:14,860 And using gematria, the numbers that equate to those become one, five, six, and three. 115 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:16,580 Three is with the carbon. 116 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:23,660 And when you then take a table, one of the ancient tables, and you're able to correlate those numbers with the letters, 117 00:09:24,340 --> 00:09:30,540 what we find, George, is that the human DNA is our genome is built in layers. 118 00:09:30,540 --> 00:09:33,540 And at the top layers, it's like every book has an introduction. 119 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:42,280 The introduction in every cell of every form of life, carbon-based DNA, the introduction is the same. 120 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:50,420 And the first translation literally reads, literal, God eternal within the body. 121 00:09:51,020 --> 00:09:54,160 God eternal within the body. 122 00:09:54,280 --> 00:10:05,300 And God that is depicted in DNA is actually spelled the way that the name of God was spelled in the ancient text 123 00:10:05,300 --> 00:10:10,220 before it was removed 6,800 times in the Torah, for example. 124 00:10:10,220 --> 00:10:15,820 The sacred name of God is believed to be so sacred it cannot be written in its entirety. 125 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,200 Why put it in a code? 126 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:23,800 You know, this was, so first as a scientist, what I have to say is this. 127 00:10:23,860 --> 00:10:25,640 People say, why is the code there? 128 00:10:25,860 --> 00:10:27,280 And I say, I don't know. 129 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:33,620 All I know is that when I followed the instructions in a 3,000-year-old text and I applied it to the periodic table, 130 00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:35,400 this is what we have. 131 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:36,880 Next question, is it a coincidence? 132 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:38,840 There are no coincidences. 133 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:48,420 Well, I have a statistician who ran the numbers for me, and the odds of this happening by chance are 1 to 234,256. 134 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:48,680 Yeah. 135 00:10:49,140 --> 00:10:53,960 234,256 to 1 are the odds, or .00041%. 136 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:54,240 Right. 137 00:10:54,580 --> 00:10:57,080 Those are the odds that it's just... 138 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:57,620 It's just random. 139 00:10:57,780 --> 00:10:58,300 Just random. 140 00:10:58,300 --> 00:11:01,660 Now, those aren't astronomical odds. 141 00:11:01,780 --> 00:11:04,380 I thought it might be like 1 to a bajillion, you know. 142 00:11:04,780 --> 00:11:06,820 But when you take into account... 143 00:11:06,820 --> 00:11:07,480 They're still high. 144 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:14,820 Not only is the language there, but when you take into account what the words say, 145 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,540 that those words actually have meaning, God eternal within the body. 146 00:11:18,540 --> 00:11:19,440 And they all say that. 147 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:27,300 The first letter in all human DNA, if you can look at what's called the genetic code, CTAG, 148 00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:31,760 every one of those is made up of combinations of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen. 149 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,240 And they are arranged... 150 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:44,140 I don't want to be really technical when I talk about this, but they're arranged different numbers of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen atoms. 151 00:11:44,780 --> 00:11:49,580 So within each of the DNA bases that make our DNA as it is, 152 00:11:49,580 --> 00:11:56,080 there are different combinations of CTAG that break down the different combinations of God eternal within the body. 153 00:11:56,080 --> 00:12:06,920 And the God within ourselves, within our DNA, is literally the same spelling of the God that was taken from those texts. 154 00:12:07,220 --> 00:12:07,900 Now, here's the beauty. 155 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:08,840 I just have to say this. 156 00:12:09,020 --> 00:12:09,120 All right. 157 00:12:09,380 --> 00:12:13,700 My first fear was I found it in the Hebrew language. 158 00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:20,300 And I said, does that mean, could it actually be divisive if it only is found in one language? 159 00:12:20,300 --> 00:12:29,860 And when the research went to its fruition, what we found is it is in Hebrew and Aramaic and Sanskrit, three of the root languages. 160 00:12:30,180 --> 00:12:30,700 The same thing. 161 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,240 Exactly the same thing. 162 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:40,000 So in Hebrew, Aramaic and Sanskrit, the code for those letters translates precisely the same in the human DNA. 163 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:41,280 That's the first layer. 164 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:46,560 In your opinion, that slogan, God eternal, is in the body. 165 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,040 What did that mean? 166 00:12:48,040 --> 00:13:00,160 What it tells me is because the odds of that happening by chance are steep, it tells me there's an intentionality. 167 00:13:00,740 --> 00:13:01,560 Now, who or what? 168 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:02,840 I don't know the answer to that. 169 00:13:02,900 --> 00:13:10,520 But it tells me that the DNA, the way it's formed, it is intentional. 170 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:16,940 And then I began to think, in our modern world, we're creators, we're artists. 171 00:13:17,420 --> 00:13:22,900 Whenever we create something that we're proud of, when we're finished, what's the last thing we do when we finish it, George? 172 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:23,500 You tell me. 173 00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:24,980 What is the last thing we do with something? 174 00:13:25,340 --> 00:13:28,660 We finish a painting, and what's the last thing we do when we finish that painting? 175 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:29,440 You sign it. 176 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:30,600 We put our name on it. 177 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:42,240 If there's an intentionality underlying life itself and human life specifically, it would make tremendous sense to me that who or whatever is responsible would somehow have left a sign. 178 00:13:42,340 --> 00:13:43,340 Is it God's signature? 179 00:13:43,340 --> 00:13:49,200 I believe that however we define that, whoever, whatever we believe that creator is. 180 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:54,720 My next question is, why not put it into a text or into a temple wall? 181 00:13:54,840 --> 00:14:07,020 And then my thinking was, why place that signature into something that can crumble over a few thousand years, like a temple wall or into the pages of a book that can be destroyed? 182 00:14:07,100 --> 00:14:09,060 Why not put it in the creation itself? 183 00:14:09,060 --> 00:14:12,460 And as long as the creation exists, the message exists as well. 184 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,380 I published this in 2004. 185 00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:22,140 Even though the research was incomplete, it was complete to that point, and I wanted to share this with the world. 186 00:14:24,020 --> 00:14:35,500 2007, Japanese scientists released a report, peer-reviewed report, on the feasibility of storing data in DNA for thousands of years. 187 00:14:35,660 --> 00:14:38,800 And what they were looking at is bacteria. 188 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:45,140 They were looking at storing information in bacteria and placing the bacteria in nuclear waste dumps, for example. 189 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:46,260 And letting it sit there. 190 00:14:46,260 --> 00:14:51,420 And letting it sit there because the papers might disintegrate or something else might happen, but if they could do it. 191 00:14:51,500 --> 00:14:59,120 So 2007 was the first time they successfully implanted a message into the DNA of a bacteria. 192 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:00,800 And they used bacteria because... 193 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,980 Hoping that someone in the future one day would use it? 194 00:15:03,980 --> 00:15:05,240 Well, this was a test. 195 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:11,040 They used the bacteria because they have a short lifespan, so they could see how many generations, you know, for a bacteria. 196 00:15:11,140 --> 00:15:12,700 The generations may be just a few days. 197 00:15:12,900 --> 00:15:16,980 So the code they put into the DNA, it was... 198 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,140 Don't say it was the same thing. 199 00:15:19,260 --> 00:15:20,700 No, it was Einstein's theory of... 200 00:15:20,700 --> 00:15:24,300 Well, it was E equals MC squared in the year 1905. 201 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,720 They encoded that into the DNA. 202 00:15:27,460 --> 00:15:32,480 They allowed it, the DNA, to replicate for 25 generations. 203 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:33,320 With that code. 204 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:33,860 With the code. 205 00:15:34,100 --> 00:15:35,800 They pulled the code right out. 206 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:36,060 How bizarre. 207 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:37,080 Completely intact. 208 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:54,540 So what they're now demonstrating purely in the scientific realm is the feasibility of storing literal information in the genome, in the DNA, and it remains intact for as long as the organism remains intact. 209 00:15:54,540 --> 00:15:56,060 Well, here's the puzzling part. 210 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,420 If you put a code in there, you're doing it for one of several reasons. 211 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,320 One, you're hiding it. 212 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,180 Or two, you're trying to pass information on to some future generation. 213 00:16:08,100 --> 00:16:10,660 So let's assume that that's what that is. 214 00:16:11,700 --> 00:16:16,740 When we extract it and we get that code, what do we do with it? 215 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:17,860 What's it mean? 216 00:16:17,980 --> 00:16:19,560 I think it depends on what the code says. 217 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,900 Now we know, and the work is progressing from this point. 218 00:16:22,900 --> 00:16:27,720 And in 2015, another layer will have been completely decoded. 219 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,660 And hopefully you and I can have this conversation and I'll share what we find next. 220 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:44,560 The point is that there is a message encoded into the DNA of all human life that tells us beyond any reasonable doubt that the differences that divide us now are superficial differences. 221 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,640 And that we have a common origin, a common ancestry. 222 00:16:48,640 --> 00:17:03,200 I was doing a conference in the D.C. area and I made the statement and I said, I would love to get my hands on some DNA from life that's not from this world. 223 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:10,620 And if it's carbon based life and if the message is the same, then we know that we have a common, a common goal, a common goal. 224 00:17:11,300 --> 00:17:12,160 And that'd be exciting. 225 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,500 Well, there's a man that came forward and said, when you're ready for that DNA, let me know. 226 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:16,200 He's got it. 227 00:17:16,460 --> 00:17:17,020 I don't know. 228 00:17:17,140 --> 00:17:18,960 Maybe from some Martian meteorite. 229 00:17:19,100 --> 00:17:19,300 Right. 230 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:20,960 There's you know, we don't know. 231 00:17:21,100 --> 00:17:21,640 We don't know. 232 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:23,560 But you look to take him up on it. 233 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,380 I'm going to call him from your cell phone number, George, not from my cell phone number. 234 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:28,360 Block your number. 235 00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:30,800 I'm not ready for that yet. 236 00:17:32,100 --> 00:17:39,860 When we were developing the algorithms and they're very complex algorithms now to help look at the DNA in new ways. 237 00:17:40,460 --> 00:17:41,600 So here we are. 238 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:42,620 We come full circle. 239 00:17:42,620 --> 00:17:54,480 We are at this this crisis point in civilization when we're facing more, more crises of such great than ever before that I can remember based on our division, on our separation. 240 00:17:54,480 --> 00:18:14,060 And if some way, if there is some way that we could bring forward in a really powerful, meaningful way, something that casts an entire new light on us as a family and what that family means, I think it would be it would give us a reason to look at things differently. 241 00:18:14,120 --> 00:18:15,920 It doesn't mean it would force us to. 242 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,920 It means it would give us a scientific reason to look at one another and think of ourselves very differently. 243 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:33,940 I know for myself, once I found this code, I felt differently about myself, knowing that within every cell of my body, God eternal, it's Y-H-V-G, are the Hebrew letters. 244 00:18:34,140 --> 00:18:41,780 Y-H-Yah is actually one of the forms of the name of God that we find in the Torah that was removed over 6,800 times. 245 00:18:41,780 --> 00:18:45,400 Did it baffle you as to who put the code there? 246 00:18:47,700 --> 00:18:50,800 I've always, I've sensed that there's an intentionality. 247 00:18:51,900 --> 00:18:52,380 From? 248 00:18:53,380 --> 00:18:54,300 Regarding us. 249 00:18:54,500 --> 00:19:01,960 And when we go to look now at Darwin's idea of evolution, 2,000 years ago, we appeared on this earth. 250 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,380 We don't know where we came from. 251 00:19:03,420 --> 00:19:13,500 And what made us different from so many of the other forms of life was human chromosome number two, the largest that had been fused with two telomere to telomere fusions. 252 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:15,820 Geneticists acknowledge the fusion. 253 00:19:15,980 --> 00:19:17,540 They say, we can't say how it happened. 254 00:19:17,540 --> 00:19:19,680 But they know it happened. 255 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,020 And it did not happen under natural circumstances. 256 00:19:23,020 --> 00:19:24,800 They said this would not happen in nature. 257 00:19:25,340 --> 00:19:32,000 Something has forced this chromosome or this telomere to telomere fusion between these two chromosomes. 258 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:41,280 So I think what we're getting, George, is we've had a sense, so many people, there's much more to us than evolution has led us to believe. 259 00:19:41,700 --> 00:19:43,900 It doesn't mean that evolution didn't occur. 260 00:19:43,900 --> 00:19:47,340 As a scientist, I can say it did, to a point. 261 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:53,260 But there's a point where evolution does not explain our existence and cannot account for what we find. 262 00:19:53,420 --> 00:20:03,780 And I think this study, this kind of work, where we're crossing the traditional boundaries between science and spirituality, a scholar studying the text would never find this. 263 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:05,340 A scientist. 264 00:20:05,340 --> 00:20:07,700 A scientist looking at the elements in the periodic table. 265 00:20:08,020 --> 00:20:11,540 Or a geneticist would never find it because they're compartmentalized. 266 00:20:11,660 --> 00:20:12,560 You need a combination. 267 00:20:12,820 --> 00:20:14,140 But the world doesn't work that way. 268 00:20:14,340 --> 00:20:20,880 So we are gifting ourselves the ability to see the world as it is through what the world is sharing with us. 269 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,220 If we're open enough, the science has to be rigid. 270 00:20:24,380 --> 00:20:27,820 It has to be based upon what science is telling us. 271 00:20:27,860 --> 00:20:33,700 So the periodic table describes the elements that make the DNA in our bodies. 272 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:39,820 There's a mathematic link between that and the letters of the ancient alphabets. 273 00:20:40,140 --> 00:20:42,720 How that link got there, who put it there, I have no idea. 274 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:56,680 As I was flying here, Greg, from Los Angeles to Denver, and I'm looking around the plane, and there's all these people sitting on the plane, and it just dawns on me, and I do this a lot, every one of them is an individual. 275 00:20:57,120 --> 00:21:03,940 They've got their own little situation, their problems, their happiness, their families, every one of them. 276 00:21:03,940 --> 00:21:11,360 But the question I kept asking myself as I looked at this entire plane full of people, why? 277 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,200 What's the reason? 278 00:21:13,540 --> 00:21:14,620 What are they here for? 279 00:21:15,260 --> 00:21:16,460 Some had briefcases. 280 00:21:16,740 --> 00:21:17,620 Some had purses. 281 00:21:18,260 --> 00:21:19,220 Some had tablets. 282 00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:21,300 Who are they? 283 00:21:21,540 --> 00:21:22,260 What are they? 284 00:21:22,900 --> 00:21:24,980 I still can't get that answer. 285 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:33,640 You, of course, have brought up a series of six questions in one of our previous shows that asks those questions, too. 286 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,460 But will we ever get that answer? 287 00:21:36,140 --> 00:21:38,180 Why are we here? 288 00:21:39,100 --> 00:21:42,460 I think we will have the answer, George. 289 00:21:42,540 --> 00:21:46,580 The question is, we'll be willing to accept what the answer says to us. 290 00:21:46,580 --> 00:21:47,240 Is it frightening? 291 00:21:47,620 --> 00:21:48,480 I don't think it's frightening. 292 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,160 We've asked science to tell us who we are. 293 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,000 And they don't tell us. 294 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,540 Well, science, pure science, is now revealing the information. 295 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,860 It's not being accepted in the mainstream. 296 00:22:01,860 --> 00:22:03,300 Now, it is changing. 297 00:22:03,580 --> 00:22:05,160 And it's changing slowly, George. 298 00:22:05,300 --> 00:22:07,200 And this is only one place. 299 00:22:07,340 --> 00:22:08,720 Evolution is only one place. 300 00:22:08,820 --> 00:22:11,640 But it's the place that's directly relevant to the God God. 301 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,220 But will we get that answer, Greg? 302 00:22:13,460 --> 00:22:15,020 Why are we here? 303 00:22:15,020 --> 00:22:27,820 I think we will find that the evidence of the circumstances, the actual reason, I think, is something that we have to find for ourselves. 304 00:22:28,580 --> 00:22:29,680 I think we're... 305 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:30,200 Individually? 306 00:22:30,540 --> 00:22:30,900 Individually. 307 00:22:31,020 --> 00:22:32,600 I think that's what we're going to find. 308 00:22:32,940 --> 00:22:35,520 A good friend of mine was watching the movie The Matrix. 309 00:22:35,700 --> 00:22:36,840 I know a lot of our viewers have seen it. 310 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:37,140 Great movie. I love it. 311 00:22:37,340 --> 00:22:38,420 Well, it's... 312 00:22:38,420 --> 00:22:39,960 I've cited that on the radio show a lot. 313 00:22:40,060 --> 00:22:41,360 I love it as well. 314 00:22:41,420 --> 00:22:42,740 It's one that I have by the TV. 315 00:22:43,060 --> 00:22:45,820 And when I'm writing into the wee hours of the morning, there's two movies. 316 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:47,800 I don't watch them all the way through. 317 00:22:47,980 --> 00:22:49,280 Contact and Matrix. 318 00:22:49,340 --> 00:22:49,660 It's... 319 00:22:49,660 --> 00:22:50,020 You know... 320 00:22:50,020 --> 00:22:50,640 How'd you know that? 321 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,020 Because it's the same with me. 322 00:22:52,020 --> 00:22:57,520 And I don't watch them all the way through, but I like the part where they solve the codes because I think there's a lot to that. 323 00:22:57,620 --> 00:22:59,080 And, you know, where does that come from anyway? 324 00:22:59,460 --> 00:23:01,260 So my friend said, you think it's science fiction. 325 00:23:01,360 --> 00:23:06,740 He said Matrix is actually a documentary about us and the way things work in the world. 326 00:23:06,740 --> 00:23:13,500 So it may be that by working backward through the code, we do arrive at the doorstep of an architect at some point. 327 00:23:13,500 --> 00:23:19,360 If you could get an answer to one question, what would that question be? 328 00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:22,700 I think it's the question we're asking right now. 329 00:23:23,180 --> 00:23:23,820 Why us? 330 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:24,720 Why here? 331 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:25,320 Why now? 332 00:23:28,340 --> 00:23:38,500 There's another branch of work that this follows up on, and it is the study of whether or not we are living in a simulation or virtual reality. 333 00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:46,120 And there is a degree course in one of the large Eastern universities in philosophy that you can take. 334 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,980 And the title of the course is Are We Living a Simulation? 335 00:23:48,980 --> 00:24:04,980 And to make a long story very brief, what they did was they took a very complex computer algorithm, plugged in all kinds of variables about human population and trajectories and economies and families and religious beliefs, you know, all about life. 336 00:24:04,980 --> 00:24:11,980 And the bottom line is there's over a 93 percent chance that we are living a simulation. 337 00:24:11,980 --> 00:24:19,540 Now, if you step into a simulation, a virtual environment in Disneyland, you can do that today and not even really know that that's where you are. 338 00:24:19,540 --> 00:24:21,960 And we've only had computers about 60 years. 339 00:24:22,100 --> 00:24:37,120 If you take the archaeology that's showing the existence of advanced technological civilizations thousands of years, where would we be if we had thousands of years of computer science to build that kind of archaeology or that kind of simulation? 340 00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:39,700 And then the question comes, why would we do this? 341 00:24:40,180 --> 00:24:54,760 And the answer for me is that every simulation is built to help the people in the simulation become very well adapted to somewhere that they're going to be when the simulation no longer exists. 342 00:24:55,240 --> 00:25:01,800 The simulation is a safe place to make mistakes and learn that power if we are, in fact, on Earth living a simulation. 343 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:06,260 And our most cherished traditions tell us that we're on our way somewhere else. 344 00:25:06,380 --> 00:25:06,900 This isn't it. 345 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:07,600 This is an illusion. 346 00:25:07,740 --> 00:25:08,320 This is temporary. 347 00:25:08,540 --> 00:25:09,880 You know, in general, they say that. 348 00:25:10,620 --> 00:25:13,760 Then I think we have to look at what those traditions are telling us. 349 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:28,180 And they're teaching us about our relationship to reality, to quantum reality, to emotions and emotions of the heart to create and heal in our bodies and the world around us. 350 00:25:28,180 --> 00:25:32,120 And if we master those, maybe that's what this simulation is all about. 351 00:25:32,580 --> 00:25:40,480 God eternal within the body may be the architect that has helped to create this simulation. 352 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,220 Do you ever get frustrated that we don't have the answers yet? 353 00:25:43,220 --> 00:25:43,820 I don't, George. 354 00:25:44,340 --> 00:25:44,720 I don't. 355 00:25:44,780 --> 00:25:53,640 Because what it tells me is, and what I've come to understand, is that when we are truly ready for that information, it's right there. 356 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,660 Sometimes, this is a perfect example. 357 00:25:57,020 --> 00:26:00,080 This has been around, you know, for 200,000 years. 358 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:01,780 It's only when we... 359 00:26:01,780 --> 00:26:03,980 Only to be discovered, though, by those who look. 360 00:26:04,500 --> 00:26:09,620 Or when our technology reaches the point that it gives us the tools to take a peek. 361 00:26:09,820 --> 00:26:13,220 It's almost like that code we sent out on one of the Viking craft, right? 362 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:13,880 Yeah. 363 00:26:14,260 --> 00:26:21,920 Which Stephen Hawking said, don't do, because he's afraid that they'll come here and he's not so sure they're very benevolent. 364 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,860 Yeah, that it was interesting. 365 00:26:25,060 --> 00:26:28,040 I actually talk about that code in the book, The God Code. 366 00:26:28,180 --> 00:26:29,380 What is it that we said? 367 00:26:29,460 --> 00:26:30,500 Who did we write it to? 368 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:31,840 And who finds it? 369 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:33,160 And how would it be interpreted? 370 00:26:33,360 --> 00:26:33,460 Yeah. 371 00:26:33,940 --> 00:26:36,020 So it makes perfect sense to me. 372 00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:48,460 If we are the product of an intentional creation, that the creator, who or whatever that is, would somehow leave a mark, letting us know when we have the ability to find that. 373 00:26:48,460 --> 00:26:49,120 That is brilliant. 374 00:26:49,120 --> 00:26:59,360 And I can't think of a more honoring way to honor who or what that creator is than to take that code, read it, and maybe communicate back the other way. 375 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,740 Scientists are no longer asking the question, are we connected? 376 00:27:06,140 --> 00:27:07,520 The field tells us that we are. 377 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,380 Now, the question is, how deeply are we connected? 378 00:27:11,860 --> 00:27:15,860 How much influence do we really have in the world through this field? 379 00:27:16,820 --> 00:27:26,160 Well, there are two very futuristic scientific experiments that take us light years beyond anything that we believe that science has accepted in the past. 380 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:27,860 I want to share those with you. 381 00:27:27,860 --> 00:27:36,240 What they are showing, however, has opened the door to a possibility that modern science is now struggling with. 382 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,020 So let's take a look at these two experiments. 383 00:27:39,020 --> 00:27:46,440 The first one was published in the Russian Bulletin of the Lebdov Physics Institute in 1992. 384 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:51,840 And the experiment begins with something seemingly very innocent. 385 00:27:51,840 --> 00:28:01,600 A glass vessel, a glass vessel, a vase, where all of the air has been completely drawn out of this vessel to create what we call a vacuum. 386 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,760 So a vacuum implies that this vessel is empty. 387 00:28:06,260 --> 00:28:13,760 But we know it's not completely empty because there are still little photons of light that remain in this vessel. 388 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:14,980 Scientists know this. 389 00:28:14,980 --> 00:28:19,220 So the question now is, where are those photons? 390 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,500 They want to get a baseline and see where the photons are right now. 391 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:33,380 So the first part of this experiment, they draw the air out of the vessel, and then they measure where these photons are in the vessel. 392 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,340 Are they all piled up on the bottom? 393 00:28:35,540 --> 00:28:36,900 Are they floating around the inside? 394 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,420 Are they all stuck to the edges? 395 00:28:39,420 --> 00:28:41,860 And what they found was no surprise. 396 00:28:41,860 --> 00:28:46,400 The vessel showed that these photons are completely random. 397 00:28:47,140 --> 00:28:47,860 They're completely random. 398 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:57,560 By the way, these are the same kinds of photons, the particles of matter that make up the atom itself that we described in the last episode. 399 00:28:57,740 --> 00:29:03,700 So we're dealing with these fundamental particles of the stuff that our world is made of, and that's important. 400 00:29:03,700 --> 00:29:10,480 So the scientists found that the distribution of the photons in this vessel is completely random. 401 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:11,840 No surprise. 402 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:12,900 That's what they expected. 403 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:26,460 The next piece of this experiment is where, while the experiment is fascinating, what I find really fascinating is the thinking of the scientists that made the experiment possible. 404 00:29:26,460 --> 00:29:37,380 For a scientist trained in the scientific method, based upon all of those false assumptions that we saw earlier in this program, those assumptions of separation, 405 00:29:37,740 --> 00:29:46,960 for the scientists to move out of that box of thinking and begin asking new questions like, what if our assumptions are wrong? 406 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,100 What would that tell us about our world? 407 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,920 That's where it gets really interesting, and that's what the next part of this experiment is all about. 408 00:29:54,700 --> 00:30:04,000 Because what the scientists did was into the vessel that had completely random photons, they put human DNA. 409 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:05,720 Human DNA. 410 00:30:06,140 --> 00:30:11,620 Because they wanted to see if human DNA has an effect on the photons. 411 00:30:12,380 --> 00:30:15,440 Before I go any further, I just want to invite you to think about what they're asking. 412 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,700 Photons are the stuff this world is made of. 413 00:30:20,300 --> 00:30:22,620 DNA is the stuff we're made of. 414 00:30:23,380 --> 00:30:32,100 And they're asking, scientists are asking in the laboratory, does the stuff we're made of have an effect on the stuff our world is made of? 415 00:30:32,500 --> 00:30:38,700 This is where it starts to sound like science fiction, or at least something that an advanced yogi would be working with. 416 00:30:38,700 --> 00:30:45,440 But these are, in a bona fide scientific laboratory, these questions, this is where they're being asked. 417 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:46,560 So here's what they did. 418 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:51,260 They took human DNA, and they placed it inside the vessel. 419 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:56,640 And then they measured the DNA again to see what would happen. 420 00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:07,120 And the results of this experiment changed the way we have been conditioned to think about ourselves and the world. 421 00:31:07,700 --> 00:31:17,700 Because the photons went from being completely random when they were first measured, and in the presence of the human DNA, the photons are no longer random. 422 00:31:18,140 --> 00:31:18,920 They are ordered. 423 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,660 They followed precisely the geometry of the DNA. 424 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,280 The DNA was having a direct effect on the photons. 425 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:34,460 The stuff we're made of is having a direct effect on the stuff our world is made of. 426 00:31:34,460 --> 00:31:43,340 Just like some of our most ancient and cherished indigenous and spiritual traditions have always told us, that we are connected to the world. 427 00:31:43,980 --> 00:31:45,420 So this is the first experiment. 428 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:51,240 Human DNA has a measurable effect on the stuff our world is made of. 429 00:31:51,300 --> 00:31:54,920 And I want you to see, I want you to see the way the scientists responded to this. 430 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:56,280 So I'm going to read this to you directly. 431 00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:12,940 In the journal Nanobiology, and it was published in 1995, the way the scientists described this, they said that the photons were described as behaving, and this is a quote, surprisingly and counterintuitively. 432 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:14,440 Counterintuitively. 433 00:32:14,820 --> 00:32:25,520 It's counterintuitive because the scientific thinking is that everything is separate from everything else, and there is no stuff to convey any effect from the DNA to the matter. 434 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,680 That's why it's counterintuitive to the science. 435 00:32:28,220 --> 00:32:31,200 But the next piece is where I find particularly interesting. 436 00:32:31,820 --> 00:32:33,140 I'm going to invite you to listen to the language. 437 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:38,340 It says we are forced to accept the possibility. 438 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:40,900 They're saying that they are forced. 439 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,620 They're not saying it looks like, or it appears, or this is what we've found. 440 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:53,900 They're saying we are forced to accept the possibility that some new field of energy is being excited by the DNA. 441 00:32:53,900 --> 00:32:57,080 Well, I think we know it's not a new field. 442 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,120 It's a field that's been around a long time. 443 00:32:59,860 --> 00:33:05,240 It's simply that we are just now recognizing that field and what it means to us. 444 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:21,740 So the summary of this second experiment is that science now confirms that human DNA influences the stuff our world is made of through the photons by communicating directly through the field. 445 00:33:22,260 --> 00:33:23,320 That's a big piece. 446 00:33:23,780 --> 00:33:25,980 But now let me go to the second experiment. 447 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:32,180 This experiment was published in the Journal of Scientific Exploration in 1994. 448 00:33:32,180 --> 00:33:38,460 It begins with human DNA once again. 449 00:33:39,060 --> 00:33:41,880 And this is a very precise kind of human DNA. 450 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:51,180 It comes from umbilical cords of newborns because that DNA is what's called very pristine DNA. 451 00:33:52,180 --> 00:33:57,000 It hasn't been eroded over time as happens as we mature in life. 452 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:13,340 So it's a very pristine kind of DNA and the DNA is isolated in one vessel and that is encased in another vessel to make sure that there are no other influences that are happening from outside to influence the DNA. 453 00:34:13,340 --> 00:34:16,420 So here is the experiment. 454 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:27,740 This very unique DNA is now placed within the range of the field of a human heart that we described in the earlier episode. 455 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:36,560 Every human heart, if you recall, has a field of energy that extends beyond the physical heart for a distance between five to eight feet. 456 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:43,000 And that field, it is an electrical and a magnetic field that we can measure with conventional equipment. 457 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:54,080 So the question is, through that field, is the DNA influenced by the emotions of another person? 458 00:34:54,260 --> 00:34:58,780 Can our emotions actually influence the DNA in our bodies? 459 00:34:59,460 --> 00:35:03,480 Before I tell you the experiment, let me just share a little bit about why this is important. 460 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:11,860 Human DNA, when it is in our cells, it is coiled in very specific kinds of ways. 461 00:35:12,740 --> 00:35:20,660 And what scientists have found is that in the presence of certain emotions that we would call negative emotions. 462 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:25,140 And I don't really like to use that term, but I'm going to use it to be clear on what we're talking about. 463 00:35:25,140 --> 00:35:40,480 So when we talk about emotions, for example, of anger or hate or jealousy or rage or frustration, those that we would typically consider as negative emotions, they have an effect on the DNA within our bodies. 464 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:47,240 And the effect is that in the presence of those emotions, the DNA is actually, the coil is tightened. 465 00:35:47,820 --> 00:35:49,580 It's tightened like a little knot. 466 00:35:50,140 --> 00:35:58,180 And that's important because when it is tightened in this way, the DNA does not express to its fullest capacity. 467 00:35:58,180 --> 00:36:12,620 So the negative emotions tighten the coil and prevent the DNA from expressing the fullest capacity of whatever it is that it is expressing, whether it's our immune response or anti-aging hormones or whatever it is. 468 00:36:12,740 --> 00:36:17,840 The DNA simply cannot do its full complement of what it's designed to do. 469 00:36:18,620 --> 00:36:22,300 So from this description, you can probably imagine what the positive emotions do. 470 00:36:22,300 --> 00:36:26,760 Positive emotions actually loosen the DNA. 471 00:36:26,980 --> 00:36:28,640 They relax the DNA. 472 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:36,620 So these are the emotions of compassion, gratitude, appreciation, for example. 473 00:36:36,620 --> 00:36:44,260 Those kinds of emotions actually relax the DNA within our bodies and allow that fullest expression. 474 00:36:45,240 --> 00:36:51,740 Knowing this, the scientists wanted to see what effect human emotions from one person. 475 00:36:52,300 --> 00:36:59,080 Would have upon DNA that's not in that person's body, but it's in this special container that was designed. 476 00:36:59,240 --> 00:37:00,280 So that's the experiment. 477 00:37:01,100 --> 00:37:02,080 Here's what they found. 478 00:37:02,420 --> 00:37:03,900 The human DNA was isolated. 479 00:37:03,900 --> 00:37:16,760 And in the presence of the positive emotions, in the presence of the gratitude, appreciation, love and compassion, what happened was the DNA actually began to relax. 480 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:23,160 And it relaxed so much that it began to unwind itself. 481 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:36,640 The two coils began to unwind as if the DNA was about to replicate itself and produce a new strand of DNA in the presence of positive emotion. 482 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:57,540 All that was happening was gratitude, appreciation, care, compassion, and the DNA was responding in such a positive manner that the DNA acted again as if it was about to reproduce itself in a new vitalized healed state. 483 00:37:57,540 --> 00:38:01,800 So this is something that scientists were not expecting. 484 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,580 So now we've seen the results of these two experiments. 485 00:38:06,260 --> 00:38:09,600 In the presence of the positive emotion, the DNA is relaxed. 486 00:38:10,180 --> 00:38:18,960 In the presence of negative emotions, such as anger, hate, jealousy, rage, the DNA was tightened like a little knot. 487 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:20,740 It coiled up very, very tightly. 488 00:38:20,740 --> 00:38:28,880 And this is telling the scientists something that we've never seen demonstrated under laboratory conditions before. 489 00:38:29,020 --> 00:38:31,540 Anecdotally, it may have been suspected. 490 00:38:32,240 --> 00:38:46,720 But this is the first time in a laboratory environment that we could actually see human emotion intentionally created by those trained to create very specific kinds and very specific qualities of emotion. 491 00:38:46,720 --> 00:39:00,500 The human emotion changed the ability of the DNA to fully express the full complement of what it is, whatever that DNA is expressing. 492 00:39:00,780 --> 00:39:02,420 So I'm going to share with you now directly. 493 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:03,760 I want you to hear from the scientists. 494 00:39:04,620 --> 00:39:16,160 Quote, individuals trained in feelings of deep love and appreciation were able to intentionally change the shape of the DNA in their bodies. 495 00:39:16,720 --> 00:39:26,220 And they went on to say that human emotion produces effects which defy conventional laws of physics. 496 00:39:26,780 --> 00:39:28,400 And what are those results saying to us? 497 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:40,280 It's saying that when we embrace the deepest truth, the power that is available to us, when we tap the fullest potential that we have available to us, 498 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:47,560 that we are not bound by the conventional laws of physics, at least as we have known those laws in the past. 499 00:39:48,260 --> 00:39:50,040 Maybe the laws of physics are going to change. 500 00:39:50,040 --> 00:40:01,340 But the fact that we have the ability to feel a certain way, to create a certain emotion in our body and literally change the DNA within us, 501 00:40:01,380 --> 00:40:07,720 and in the case of the experiment that was not even part of us, that tells a new story. 502 00:40:08,220 --> 00:40:10,020 And here's what this story is all about. 503 00:40:10,460 --> 00:40:11,220 So I'm going to invite you now. 504 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:12,540 Think about these two experiments. 505 00:40:12,540 --> 00:40:19,220 The first experiment, human emotion changes the shape of the DNA, and you saw that. 506 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:25,060 The second experiment is that DNA changes physical matter. 507 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,600 The DNA influenced the photons that were in the vessel. 508 00:40:29,180 --> 00:40:34,460 If you take out the middle piece, human emotion changes DNA, DNA changes matter. 509 00:40:34,460 --> 00:40:42,240 If you take out the overlapping statements of DNA, what we find is this, human emotion changes matter. 510 00:40:42,940 --> 00:40:48,100 Human emotion influences the stuff our world is made of. 511 00:40:48,620 --> 00:40:56,860 And as we learn to embrace the qualities of feeling and emotion that change the DNA in our bodies, 512 00:40:56,940 --> 00:41:01,420 not only does it influence the healing in our own bodies, as you'll see in future episodes, 513 00:41:01,420 --> 00:41:06,820 not only does it influence the DNA in additional ways, as you're going to see in future episodes, 514 00:41:07,060 --> 00:41:14,820 it literally taps, it influences the stuff our world is made of in ways that sound superhuman. 515 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:21,360 It sounds like something that a yogi studying in a monastery on a high mountaintop half a world away for a lifetime would be able to do. 516 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,340 But the beauty of these experiments is that we don't have to do that. 517 00:41:25,340 --> 00:41:31,240 We don't have to leave everything that we love and all the people and the experiences that live in a monastery on a mountaintop 518 00:41:31,240 --> 00:41:35,980 for a lifetime or two to embrace what these technologies are all about. 519 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,360 And this is precisely what we are talking about. 520 00:41:38,700 --> 00:41:39,900 This is a technology. 521 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:48,540 It is an internal technology that is available to every human if we choose to embrace it in our lives. 522 00:41:49,220 --> 00:41:51,560 So what have we learned from these experiments? 523 00:41:51,560 --> 00:42:02,300 We now know science confirms human emotion influences the field that connects all things and the stuff our world is made of. 524 00:42:02,860 --> 00:42:10,120 When we study physics, traditional physics, one of the great mysteries of the physics as we know it today, 525 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:14,420 has to do with the outcome of yet another experiment. 526 00:42:14,420 --> 00:42:20,580 This experiment was first performed in 1909, at the turn of the 20th century. 527 00:42:21,380 --> 00:42:24,840 And at that time, scientists, they didn't know what to make of this experiment. 528 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,760 Prior to 1909, physics was mechanistic. 529 00:42:29,900 --> 00:42:32,460 They're called Newtonian physics, classical physics. 530 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:39,820 It was all about things bumping up against other things, electrons and atoms and neutrons. 531 00:42:39,820 --> 00:42:47,060 But the new physics that was developing at the time, through the theories that were being developed in late 1800s and early 1900s, 532 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,940 that physics said that there's something else that's happening, 533 00:42:51,060 --> 00:42:55,640 that on the level of things that are very small and the level of things that are very huge, 534 00:42:55,900 --> 00:43:01,400 in terms of galaxies and in terms of very, very small particles, 535 00:43:01,780 --> 00:43:03,980 there's another physics that's working. 536 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,220 That's the quantum physics. 537 00:43:05,220 --> 00:43:14,460 And the experiment that I'm talking about was known as the very, very famous double slit experiment performed in 1909. 538 00:43:15,100 --> 00:43:20,800 And the mystery is because the result of the double slit experiment 539 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:28,020 actually is determined by whether or not someone is watching the experiment. 540 00:43:28,820 --> 00:43:29,140 Okay? 541 00:43:29,340 --> 00:43:30,080 Let me say that again. 542 00:43:30,140 --> 00:43:31,580 Let me tell you how this experiment works. 543 00:43:31,580 --> 00:43:37,940 The double slit experiment, it begins as a beam of photons. 544 00:43:38,100 --> 00:43:39,700 And you see a common theme here. 545 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:41,620 We're talking about photons. 546 00:43:41,820 --> 00:43:46,960 They are the elementary stuff that atoms are made of, the stuff our world is made of. 547 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:48,280 You and I are made of photons. 548 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:50,320 Our world is made of photons. 549 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,040 So it's not surprising that they would be used a lot throughout these experiments. 550 00:43:54,040 --> 00:44:04,740 So in the double slit experiment, a beam of light, photons, particles of light, was fired from a device. 551 00:44:04,740 --> 00:44:08,200 And it was fired at a barrier. 552 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:12,660 And the barrier had two slits on either side. 553 00:44:12,660 --> 00:44:27,860 And what scientists expected to see was that once the light hit the barrier, it would go through both of the slits and we would be able to see the patterns that was creating in a very expected way on the other side. 554 00:44:27,860 --> 00:44:41,280 Well, this is where the mystery comes in, because what scientists found is that when the light hit the barrier and it went through and it was being observed. 555 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:43,660 Now, the observer could be another human. 556 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:45,680 It could be a device watching it. 557 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:54,080 But somehow, the observation actually determined how those particles of light would behave. 558 00:44:54,880 --> 00:45:00,240 When no one and nothing was observing, the particles would behave in one way. 559 00:45:00,720 --> 00:45:07,020 When someone or a gadget was recording, the particles would behave in another way. 560 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:08,360 And here's the difference. 561 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,600 Under one set of circumstances, the particles remained particles. 562 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,140 On another set of circumstances, the particles became waves. 563 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:22,260 So now we're talking on a quantum level about the difference between the particles and waves. 564 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,920 It's the same energy expressing in very, very different forms. 565 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:37,020 Now, this is going to be really important because what we have just done is we've talked about the ability of humans to create the emotion that influences their DNA. 566 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,500 It influences the stuff our world is made of. 567 00:45:39,500 --> 00:45:45,680 And now we're talking about the stuff our world is made of behaves differently. 568 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:46,780 Sometimes it's a particle. 569 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,420 Sometimes it's a wave, depending on whether or not it's being observed. 570 00:45:50,420 --> 00:46:05,800 The implications for healing, the implications for prayer, the implications for remote healing within the context of these discoveries take on a whole new meaning. 571 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:11,960 And if you think about this, we know scientifically that prayer has an effect. 572 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:28,940 Many studies have been done and the question was, how could a prayer in one person's living room for their loved one, their son or their daughter, their mother or father in a battlefield of Afghanistan, half a world away, how could the prayer have any influence on the other side of the planet? 573 00:46:28,940 --> 00:46:37,700 And yet it does. Statistically, what the studies were showing was that people fared better when they were ill or when they underwent a surgery. 574 00:46:37,860 --> 00:46:45,620 Those that had people praying for them fared better, recovered faster, had less trauma, less bleeding, less swelling, less bruising than those that did not. 575 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:47,720 These are very, very well-documented studies. 576 00:46:48,300 --> 00:46:49,960 So I'm not going to spend a lot of time on those. 577 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:53,120 The question is, why does it happen? How does it happen? 578 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:57,380 That's what we're spending time on because we're going to take this now to the next level. 579 00:46:57,380 --> 00:47:05,360 We're going to take it even further than we have in the past because it begins to tie in to what we have called miracles in the past. 580 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:11,580 You know, a miracle is only a miracle until we understand the science underlying what's happening. 581 00:47:12,060 --> 00:47:16,680 Then it becomes a technology and it's something that we all have available to us. 582 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:25,240 Although the observer effect was first documented during the first double slit experiments early in the 20th century, 583 00:47:25,240 --> 00:47:28,920 as happens so often with these very important experiments, 584 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:36,040 this particular experiment was repeated later in the century using even better equipment with new ideas and new understandings. 585 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:43,840 And I'd like to share with you precisely the exact language of what the scientists at the Weitzman Research Institute discovered 586 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:47,060 when they repeated the double slit experiment. 587 00:47:47,060 --> 00:47:52,720 In 1998, scientific headlines all over the world reported this experiment. 588 00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:54,780 And they read, and this is a quote, 589 00:47:54,780 --> 00:48:00,440 researchers at the Weitzman Institute of Science conducted a highly controlled experiment 590 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:05,840 demonstrating how a beam of electrons, so these are quantum particles, 591 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:12,100 a beam of electrons is affected by the act of being observed. 592 00:48:12,100 --> 00:48:18,760 But even beyond that, that observation effect, that was noted early in the century. 593 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:19,800 But listen to this. 594 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,660 Listen to the new portion of this discovery. 595 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:25,120 The scientists said, quote, 596 00:48:25,380 --> 00:48:30,980 the experiment revealed that the greater the amount of watching, 597 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:37,120 the greater the observer's influence on what actually takes place, end of quote. 598 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:44,780 And this was actually reported in a very prestigious journal, Nature, February 26, 1998, volume 391, 599 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:46,100 if you want to look it up for yourself. 600 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:56,960 This experiment is telling us that not only are we intimately enmeshed with the world around us and with the world within us, 601 00:48:57,040 --> 00:49:01,980 but the more focus, the greater our focus, the greater the attention that we give, 602 00:49:02,340 --> 00:49:05,980 specifically something that is happening in our lives, the greater the effect. 603 00:49:05,980 --> 00:49:12,800 But I think this is interesting because we already knew this if we followed the principles in some of our most ancient, 604 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:15,360 again, and cherished spiritual traditions. 605 00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:22,240 For example, in the sutra from the Mahayana Buddhist traditions, 606 00:49:22,660 --> 00:49:28,480 there is a statement that essentially summarizes what the Weitzman experience just told us. 607 00:49:28,700 --> 00:49:30,220 And that statement says, quote, 608 00:49:31,220 --> 00:49:35,520 Reality exists only where the mind creates a focus. 609 00:49:35,980 --> 00:49:38,620 Reality exists only where the mind creates a focus. 610 00:49:39,340 --> 00:49:42,080 So the ancient Buddhist traditions, they didn't have the science, 611 00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:43,640 but they sure understood the principle. 612 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:44,680 They understood the mechanism. 613 00:49:45,460 --> 00:49:50,700 Where we create this convergence of thought, feeling, and emotion, 614 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:53,300 where we create that focus, 615 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,760 that is us observing the world around us. 616 00:49:56,760 --> 00:50:05,360 And it is that experience and the fact that that experience has such a powerful effect in our lives 617 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,680 that actually made Albert Einstein, it was making him crazy. 618 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:13,800 This is the piece of the puzzle that Einstein was never able to solve. 619 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:18,120 He began early in the 20th century with his theories of relativity, 620 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:24,780 and he was always searching for a unified theory, a unified field theory. 621 00:50:25,500 --> 00:50:26,520 Here's what I mean by that. 622 00:50:26,580 --> 00:50:32,080 In a unified field theory, it's where a scientist like Albert Einstein creates a single story 623 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:38,080 that incorporates all of the facets of nature and physics and mathematics 624 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:42,960 into one coherent story of us, our universe, and our relationship to it. 625 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:45,780 The unified field theory has been an elusive theory. 626 00:50:45,900 --> 00:50:47,180 It is yet to be discovered. 627 00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:50,420 Einstein and the world supported Einstein, 628 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:51,960 thinking that this is the man. 629 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:53,360 If anyone could do it, he could do it. 630 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,180 Here's where Einstein got stuck. 631 00:50:55,720 --> 00:50:59,080 And he actually admitted this on his deathbed in the early 1950s. 632 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:03,120 He got stuck because he did not like the idea 633 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:07,360 that we are so intimately connected with our universe 634 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:11,960 that we could have any influence whatsoever on the universe in one place 635 00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:14,020 with us being in another place. 636 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,400 And as I mentioned earlier, he actually had a name. 637 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:21,140 He called this spooky action at a distance. 638 00:51:21,140 --> 00:51:27,000 He called this spooky action at a distance because, to him, it was spooky. 639 00:51:27,720 --> 00:51:33,100 One of the things I find particularly fascinating is that although Einstein 640 00:51:33,100 --> 00:51:39,060 was working with the same mathematics and the same equations as his friends and colleagues, 641 00:51:39,860 --> 00:51:44,140 he came to the conclusion that we are separate from one another 642 00:51:44,140 --> 00:51:47,160 and that we are separate from the universe 643 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:50,020 and that we can be observers in the universe. 644 00:51:50,020 --> 00:51:54,220 However, a dear friend and colleague of Albert Einstein's, 645 00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:56,180 a man that lived much longer than Einstein, 646 00:51:56,820 --> 00:52:01,040 had a tremendously powerful influence in quantum physics 647 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:03,120 at Princeton University in our world today, 648 00:52:03,340 --> 00:52:04,720 was Professor John Wheeler. 649 00:52:04,820 --> 00:52:06,840 He passed away just a few years ago. 650 00:52:07,820 --> 00:52:10,080 So John Wheeler and Albert Einstein, they were friends, 651 00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:11,900 they were colleagues, looking at the same equations, 652 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:15,800 the same math, drawing vastly different conclusions. 653 00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:20,500 So while Einstein believed that we are separate and have no effect, 654 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,540 Wheeler said just the opposite. 655 00:52:22,660 --> 00:52:25,700 And I want to share with you John Wheeler's exact words, 656 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:29,480 just so you can hear his process and his thinking 657 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:32,040 and how passionate he was about this. 658 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:33,800 John Wheeler said, 659 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:40,240 We had this old idea that there is a universe out there somewhere. 660 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,820 And here's man, he called the observer, 661 00:52:44,660 --> 00:52:51,800 safely protected from the universe by what he called a six inch slab of plate glass. 662 00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,120 Okay, so it's not really plate glass. 663 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:59,560 But that is his way of saying that there is something between us and the universe out there. 664 00:52:59,940 --> 00:53:01,200 But he continues. 665 00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:01,880 He said, 666 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,540 Now we learn that to even observe an electron, 667 00:53:05,540 --> 00:53:08,320 we have to shatter that plate glass. 668 00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:09,280 Listen to what he said. 669 00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:09,960 He said, 670 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:14,800 So the old word observer simply has to be crossed off the books. 671 00:53:14,980 --> 00:53:15,600 He said, 672 00:53:15,700 --> 00:53:16,680 There are no observers. 673 00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:20,000 We must put in the new word participator. 674 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,860 No observers, only participators. 675 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:24,100 So what does this mean? 676 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:30,960 I'm going to just very, very quickly encapsulate this idea of why it's so powerful in our lives. 677 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,660 Because what John Wheeler has just said to us, 678 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:38,360 tells us that we will never find the smallest particle of matter, 679 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:43,540 no matter how many atoms and quantum particles that we smash into one another 680 00:53:43,540 --> 00:53:46,500 and break into a bajillion pieces looking for smaller and smaller pieces. 681 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,940 And we will never find the edge of the universe, 682 00:53:49,940 --> 00:53:53,220 no matter how far we look to the edge of the cosmos 683 00:53:53,220 --> 00:53:56,460 and how technologically sophisticated our equipment is. 684 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:57,740 And here's the reason why. 685 00:53:58,240 --> 00:54:06,540 What John Wheeler just said to us is that every place that we look into the universe, 686 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:08,860 every place that we look into nature, 687 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:12,920 with the expectation that something is there for us to see, 688 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:18,800 the expectation is the principle that will put something there for us to see. 689 00:54:19,300 --> 00:54:21,840 So no matter how far, no matter how deep, 690 00:54:22,380 --> 00:54:23,640 as long as we're looking, 691 00:54:24,100 --> 00:54:26,500 the act of looking is the act of creation 692 00:54:26,500 --> 00:54:30,040 that makes sure there will always be something there for us to see. 693 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:35,400 So what we've just witnessed are the science-based experiments 694 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:38,840 and a real-life application of these experiments 695 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:42,960 that not only confirm that we are deeply connected to the world, 696 00:54:43,100 --> 00:54:46,900 but also confirm that that connection is so fundamental. 697 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:50,620 It begins at the very core of our existence with our DNA, 698 00:54:51,020 --> 00:54:54,680 where we interact with life and reality itself. 699 00:54:54,680 --> 00:55:24,660 Thank you.
