1 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,000 Good morning and welcome to New Heaven New Work. 2 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:39,000 Last year, we did a program with Itzhak Bentoff, a Boston-based researcher 3 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,000 into the relationship between consciousness and the cosmos 4 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,000 and based upon a book which he wrote called "Stalking the Wild Pendulum." 5 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,000 This book has since become somewhat of a bestseller among people 6 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,000 who are interested in the relationship between consciousness and the cosmos, 7 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:59,000 and we wanted to, once again, get an opportunity this morning to speak with Mr. 8 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,000 all the other kind things you can say. 9 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,000 The interesting thing about him is that he has, over the years, 10 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,000 conducted research into consciousness. 11 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,000 The subtitle of his book is "The Mechanics of Consciousness," 12 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,000 and what we want to try to talk about today is one aspect of it, 13 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,000 and that is the evolution of consciousness. 14 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,000 than the theory of evolution that Darwin came up with in the mid-19th century. 15 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,000 And ever since then, all of our thought has been along the ideas 16 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,000 that somehow we have evolved as human beings to being who we are today. 17 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:48,000 The question I want to ask you is, where do you see us now in that evolutionary 18 00:01:53,000 --> 00:02:00,000 then we know that we have evolved from the apes towards humans, 19 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:07,000 and now we have finally come to a point where we are humanoid in shape, 20 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,000 we are vertical spines, we are reasonably intelligent, 21 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,000 we can push buttons on TV, drive cars, et cetera, et cetera. 22 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,000 but don't worry, it's not very scientific. 23 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:29,000 Let me draw what is called a bell curve, which looks somehow like this. 24 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:36,000 It's being used in describing random events, and the way this works is the following, 25 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:41,000 that if we assume now, let's take a following situation, 26 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:51,000 and we have this great desire to find out what the average height of people in this 27 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,000 and therefore we go out with the yards that can start measuring these people. 28 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:04,000 Well, we find that a very small, very few number of people will be, say, three feet 29 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:09,000 and very, very few of them will be maybe seven or eight feet tall. 30 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,000 that is the average or mean height of these people would be about five feet, 31 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,000 and six or eight inches, something like this. 32 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:29,000 Okay, so what we find here is that this bell curve gives us a good picture 33 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:35,000 of where most of the population is, that is what typifies the population. 34 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,000 We can use this diagram also to describe evolution. 35 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:49,000 moralizing, intelligent bipedal, right, and with a vertical spine, 36 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,000 and who pushes the buttons on TV and drives a car, etc., etc. 37 00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:01,000 Now, there is some backstraw, that is, there are some people here in this area, 38 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,000 very few people who are still gorilla-like. 39 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,000 And then we have other people who are here in this corner, 40 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,000 very few of them who are very highly developed, 41 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:23,000 because we say that evolution is now pushing mankind in this direction, 42 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:28,000 away from the gorilla types, towards the very highly evolved feet. 43 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,000 half a million years from now. 44 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,000 This curve is going to shift, it's going to shift like this. 45 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,000 That is, the bulk of the population will be very, very highly evolved. 46 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000 We've gone away altogether from the gorilla types, no more gorillas, 47 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,000 and what we have here now is the average man is now the retarded person, 48 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,000 The bulk of the population is extremely, very, very highly evolved, 49 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:07,000 and the cutting edge of evolution here, these are very, very highly evolved people. 50 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,000 We can't even imagine what kind of person that will be. 51 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,000 He may not have a physical body at all. 52 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,000 Of course, the habitats, so to speak, of this group here, 53 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:21,000 well, you just go out and you find them, they're all over the place. 54 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:32,000 I suspect you would find them in universities, 55 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000 you'd find the people who are very bright, 56 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,000 people who are in the leading edge of professions. 57 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,000 I mean, it's an intellectual thing. 58 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:44,000 Well, I suggest that you find them in mental hospitals, in map houses. 59 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,000 in a reality which is very changed, 60 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:59,000 and few of them are adapted to live in this reality, 61 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,000 so naturally they can't function very well. 62 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:07,000 So the only safe place, the only good place for them would be the mental hospital, 63 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:23,000 Now, if they can integrate it, then we have people like Newton, like Darwin, like 64 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,000 These are the so-called genius. 65 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,000 The thing that I'm not certain that we have talked about is, what is it that is evolving? 66 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,000 Let's put it this way. 67 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,000 and the nervous system is supported by a skeleton of bones and muscles and tissue, ... 68 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:49,000 Now, the nervous system is that thing that gives us the picture of our realities, 69 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,000 that is, our realities, that reality which you see all around you, 70 00:06:53,000 --> 00:07:00,000 the flowers and the chairs and the microphones and the teacups, is given to u... 71 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:15,000 We hear only a limited scale of vibrations, like for instance, we hear anywhere from 72 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,000 In other words, all our senses are limited. 73 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:39,000 Now, as you're evolving, what happens is that that slit opens up more and more and more. 74 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:54,000 They're not very different realities, but rather a very extended, broad view of one 75 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,000 The Bible mentions maybe four to six colors maximum. 76 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,000 That is what people saw just a bear maybe 4,000 years ago. 77 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,000 Nowadays, we see hundreds and thousands of colors. 78 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,000 Our fellow mammals like cows and horses see only black and white. 79 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000 So, this is one example of the evolution of the nervous system. 80 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:24,000 The senses are an extension of our nervous system, our eyes, our ears, etc., are an 81 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:31,000 Before you were talking about the people who were the mutants, either being in the ment... 82 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,000 What is the nature of that reality which they're able to see? 83 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:50,000 Well, that is classified as a non-physical reality sometimes. 84 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:10,000 and he looks up and suddenly he says to his mother, "Hey, Ma, look at this, that 85 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,000 And she says, "Well, kiddo, there's something wrong with you, you need help." 86 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,000 - You're crazy. - So, you're crazy. 87 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:28,000 So, she takes him up to the friendly neighborhood psychiatrist and the same thi... 88 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,000 The psychiatrist will ask him, "Well, kiddo, what do you see?" 89 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:38,000 Well, you'll see, "Well, don't you see Dr. Over there in the corner? Don't you see th... 90 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:48,000 Well, then the psychiatrist says, "Oh, young fella, you're in trouble." 91 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:53,000 And then he writes out a little prescription for a little Thorazine or electroshock or 92 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,000 and pretty soon, in a matter of two weeks, kid is back in shape very normal. 93 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,000 - No longer sees anything. - No longer sees anything, yeah. 94 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,000 So, the process has been reversed. 95 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,000 And what you would say is that there's a good chance that that kid is seen. 96 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:19,000 Very good chance that the kid has a spontaneous opening of his senses. 97 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,000 So, that the evolution has been rushed up or hurried up? 98 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:29,000 Yeah. Now, this actually happens. There are techniques to do this. 99 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:45,000 But it happens very often, spontaneously, without someone trying to do anything abou... 100 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:52,000 And it just happens. And then, naturally, in the olden days, these kinds of things used... 101 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:08,000 It's interesting, isn't it? You think of what you call the spontaneous opening of expand... 102 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,000 Correct. 103 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,000 I mean, that's sort of a lot of words to say something. 104 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,000 But in an earlier time, it was called a miraculous occurrence. 105 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,000 - Yeah. - An ever-lated consciousness. 106 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,000 - Right. - You know, a time of great revelation. 107 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,000 Now, take, like this fellow, St. Paul, yeah? 108 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,000 He's going or walking or riding to Damascus in the olden days. 109 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:35,000 And suddenly, this big ball of white light descends, and as Jesus standing in the bal... 110 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:40,000 and he says, "Hey, why don't you lay off of my people and stop doing whatever you're 111 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:47,000 And he's very impressed, and he's even blinded, and he falls down, and one thing ... 112 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:58,000 and he talks about his experience and the big public relations thing, and he got the thi... 113 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:03,000 He got the church built, and the Judeo-Christian ethic came out of this and 114 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:07,000 and all the things that, you know, that go with this. 115 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,000 - So we've got something. - Yeah. 116 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,000 - Yeah? - Driving down. 117 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,000 Route 128 doesn't go to Damascus. 118 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,000 Well, it doesn't go to Damascus, either. 119 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,000 It goes to Dettem. 120 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,000 So, okay, so then this fellow is driving, 121 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,000 and suddenly this big ball of light descends in front of his windshield, 122 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:37,000 and there's Jesus standing in front of him, and he gets very, very impressed, 123 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,000 And so, sure enough, there's a cop behind him, and he says, "Ooh," you know, 124 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,000 and gets him off to the side of the road, 125 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:51,000 and he says, "Sir, may I have your license and registration and all that?" 126 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:56,000 And this fellow is so impressed, and he keeps babbling something about Jesus and all that, 127 00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,000 and the cop says, "Well, you must be driving under the influence, right?" 128 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,000 So he arrests him and takes him in the station. 129 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,000 "Well, he still is under the influence, you see." 130 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,000 So they call an ambulance and send him off to the mental hospital. 131 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:20,000 So now the reception desk, they interview him, a very short interview, 132 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:27,000 and the guy puts down in the logbook that the fellow came in with an acute psychotic 133 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,000 or schizophrenic episode with religious overtones. 134 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,000 We took the miracle, and we grounded that really to gray powder. 135 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,000 So no one miracles. 136 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,000 Everybody's complaining that during the Bible times, 137 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,000 on every page of the Bible, you have a miracle or two. 138 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:45,200 Anybody's complaining that during the Bible times, on every page of the Bible you have... 139 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:49,200 That's what we're doing to the miracles, we're just flattening the Bible. 140 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:54,200 What is it that is evolving? You talked about the nervous system evolving, right? 141 00:13:54,200 --> 00:14:02,200 But is there something else that is evolving that is able to be sensitive to this highe... 142 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:21,200 And so when you go to church you take this soul out of the closet and polish it up a 143 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,200 Then you come back and put back in the closet till next week. 144 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:38,200 I mean we don't have souls but it's just the other way around, the soul has us. 145 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:49,200 So that is that thing that evolves, the permanent, eternal thing is the soul and t... 146 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:06,200 So the driver is the soul who uses the body for a while and then he runs it into the 147 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:13,200 And so it's the soul which is experiencing evolution and not our personality, not our 148 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,200 Well I'll tell you, maybe we should draw another diagram. 149 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:31,200 Physical bodies are here, another physical body, another physical body and this is Jo... 150 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,200 Now clearly this is the physical level. 151 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:41,200 Now on this physical level we are all separate, you sit there and I sit here and... 152 00:15:48,200 --> 00:16:00,200 Well there will be some mingling here, let's draw this person as extending to practical... 153 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:08,200 Now look what happens, at the physical level we are separate, we are separate and there... 154 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:22,200 That is the souls are in a way in touch with each other. 155 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,200 Okay they overlap these two lines. 156 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:34,200 Now let's go now to a higher level and let's call this say the level of the higher self... 157 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,200 There is more overlap between them. 158 00:16:52,200 --> 00:17:01,200 On the very highest level, which is the highest spiritual level, we are basically 159 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,200 In other words we have become omnipresent. 160 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:19,200 This is the state of highly spiritual perfected beings, or gods you may call. 161 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,200 Okay? 162 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,200 Okay and so that we exist on all of those simultaneous ones. 163 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,200 On all of those simultaneous ones, but we are not aware of them. 164 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,200 Correct. 165 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,200 And so whether we like it or not, we are all evolving towards Godhood. 166 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,200 But you know it takes you on so don't hold your breath. 167 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,200 Is that the purpose of evolution? 168 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,200 Naturally. 169 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:54,200 Because at that point you start understanding how the system works and one of the good 170 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,200 What does it want to teach you? 171 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:09,200 Well, if you are omnipresent and you are all knowing, that is the state which the syste... 172 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:15,200 Because the system is an intelligence or information-gathering system. 173 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:20,200 And it is also freely distributing that information. 174 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:42,200 And it has a nervous system which we at this particular point in time understand as bei... 175 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:48,200 And that is sort of what we call material ordinary reality that enables us to drive 176 00:18:55,200 --> 00:19:07,200 And the thing which is going to be pushed is our soul and that at some point we will ha... 177 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,200 And ultimately, we come into perfection. 178 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,200 What if we like it or not? 179 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:26,200 Yeah. Well, you use the meditative techniques which push the nervous system a lot faster 180 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:33,200 Those techniques are available but you don't need to do anything that's going to happen 181 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,200 It's going to happen. 182 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,200 What a view. It's a very big, bright view. 183 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:54,200 [Music] 184 00:19:54,200 --> 00:20:02,200 [Music] 185 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:17,200 [Music] 186 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:22,200 His full name was pronounced Itzhak Bentov. 187 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:26,200 But to most people, he was known simply as Ben. 188 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:55,200 And he would talk about the nature of reality and our place in it and his own model of t... 189 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:16,200 Ben had a tremendous sense of humor and a capacity to explain very complex ideas in ... 190 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:23,200 And he illustrated his two books with his own cartoon-like drawings. 191 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:36,200 Ben called himself a nuts and bolts man, a plumber. 192 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:46,200 He was trained as a mechanical engineer and somewhere along the way he started meditat... 193 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:15,200 And the combination of these two gave him a unique and a very unusual perspective on t... 194 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:30,200 It's a totality in which every part is related to every other part and they're al... 195 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:36,200 And this hologram he perceived as vibratory in nature. 196 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:30,200 And so as a biomedical engineer, this is what Ben specialized in, he became interested i... 197 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:03,200 So it's an unending process of unfoldment of consciousness. 198 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:31,400 Now, as evolution pushes this ahead, some years from now this bell curve will assume 199 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:38,400 So what will happen? That the average consciousness will be where the advanced 200 00:27:49,400 --> 00:28:01,400 Because as he used to say, the potential of the human nervous system is enormous and w... 201 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:20,400 And the ballastograph is something that picks up micro vibrations of the body. 202 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:28,400 So the large curve that you see reflects the motion up and down of the subject as the 203 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:46,400 The lower part of the chart shows the same individual in a state of deep meditation, 204 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:51,400 And look what happened. The breathing is practically gone. It's a straight line. 205 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:16,400 And looking at this as an engineer, Ben said this is an effect of harmonization of all ... 206 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:40,400 In other words, when this energy in the spine rises, the harmony occurs where the vibrat... 207 00:29:49,400 --> 00:30:08,400 And in this case, there are five. The heart/orta system, the brain itself, a cav... 208 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:34,400 So once this oscillator or resonating system comes into harmony, it will trigger the re... 209 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:53,400 It hits the bifurcation into the legs and a certain plane wave is reflected up. 210 00:30:53,400 --> 00:31:00,400 The next pulse comes down and the plane wave and the pulse clash and it creates a 211 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:23,400 So that a pulse comes down and waits for the reflection to come up and they both go up 212 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:14,400 On top of the third ventricle is a drum like surface with a bundle of nerve fiber cross... 213 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:38,400 As Ben measured these fields around the body, he found that at that frequency of 7 hertz... 214 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:27,400 In other words, everybody is really hearing one sound but then it breaks up into 215 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:34,400 It really varies depending on one's evolution. 216 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:49,400 And on the brain there is a narrow band called the sensory cortex. 217 00:37:49,400 --> 00:38:03,400 When stimulated mechanically with a needle, for example, during operations, it creates 218 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:24,400 So usually the signal goes to the sensory cortex and back to the motor system tellin... 219 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:47,400 So one doesn't really know is it happening in the brain or is it happening on the physic... 220 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:13,400 This alignment eventually becomes a permanent situation so that one's range of perceptio... 221 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:37,400 So nobody's forcing them to sit for days on end cross-legged. 222 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:21,400 And eventually the current begins to go around and round and its function is to cl... 223 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:36,400 And some people can experience great discomfort because of that and not 224 00:40:54,599 --> 00:41:04,599 Certainly this mechanism and this phenomenon was known in antiquity and this pharaoh is 225 00:41:04,599 --> 00:41:11,599 "My status symbol is this, that my Kundalini has risen to the center in the forehead." 226 00:41:11,599 --> 00:41:21,599 And in this painting, it's being said again, it's all coded in these graphic patterns. 227 00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:30,599 So this knowledge really was quite universal. 228 00:41:30,599 --> 00:41:38,599 Now we will continue and we will look at the way Ben looked at reality. 229 00:41:38,599 --> 00:41:43,599 Because what is it that gives us our reality? 230 00:41:51,599 --> 00:41:57,599 And I will talk later why he used the pendulum as the symbol of what he was talk... 231 00:41:57,599 --> 00:41:59,599 We are dealing with two realities. 232 00:41:59,599 --> 00:42:06,599 One is this physical solid reality that we get blue and black marks from as he said w... 233 00:42:14,599 --> 00:42:20,599 And so the two really are giving us the totality of our environment. 234 00:42:20,599 --> 00:42:25,599 So what is the objective physical reality? 235 00:42:25,599 --> 00:42:28,599 And let us look at the atom. 236 00:42:41,599 --> 00:42:49,599 But if we analyze the electron, all we find is an oscillating electromagnetic field. 237 00:42:49,599 --> 00:42:51,599 There is no physical matter as such. 238 00:42:51,599 --> 00:42:55,599 So we think, well maybe the nucleus will give us the answer. 239 00:43:04,599 --> 00:43:10,599 Because between the nucleus and the electron, and outside of them, there is nothing but 240 00:43:10,599 --> 00:43:15,599 The same void that fills in the interstellar space. 241 00:43:15,599 --> 00:43:24,599 And the ratio of the distance between the nucleus and the electron would be analogou... 242 00:43:30,599 --> 00:43:33,599 So what is physical matter? 243 00:43:33,599 --> 00:43:40,599 Ben drew an analogy between the electron and the pendulum by looking at the cross-secti... 244 00:43:40,599 --> 00:43:43,599 and comparing it to reciprocal motion. 245 00:43:43,599 --> 00:43:50,599 In other words, we see the electron now on this side, now on the other side of the 246 00:43:52,599 --> 00:43:56,599 It stops, it moves, stops, and moves again. 247 00:43:56,599 --> 00:44:00,599 In other words, it's action and rest, action and rest. 248 00:44:00,599 --> 00:44:11,599 If you took an actual pendulum and would swing it and attach a pin to it, and you 249 00:44:11,599 --> 00:44:13,599 it would describe a sine wave. 250 00:44:13,599 --> 00:44:17,599 Here the pendulum moved and stopped, moved and stopped. 251 00:44:23,599 --> 00:44:26,599 We perceive reality when there is motion. 252 00:44:26,599 --> 00:44:31,599 And reality is really nothing but oscillating fields in the void. 253 00:44:31,599 --> 00:44:42,599 And the reason I can touch this screen and I don't go through the floor is because my 254 00:44:42,599 --> 00:44:46,599 are actually repelling the electrons of the floor. 255 00:44:51,599 --> 00:45:02,599 So that it's the interaction between the atoms in this reality that gives us the 256 00:45:02,599 --> 00:45:07,599 So how do we get information about this solid physical reality? 257 00:45:07,599 --> 00:45:11,599 It is through our senses, through the subjective reality. 258 00:45:11,599 --> 00:45:14,599 So let's look at that. 259 00:45:16,599 --> 00:45:24,599 If this is a neuron and this is the baseline when the neuron is at rest, when it's 260 00:45:24,599 --> 00:45:30,599 and it doesn't care whether it's a loud noise or a bright light, it simply says, "Ouch, ... 261 00:45:30,599 --> 00:45:37,599 So the more such spikes you have on the baseline, the more intense the stimulus. 262 00:45:46,599 --> 00:45:52,599 that simply indicate a stimulation of the nervous system. 263 00:45:52,599 --> 00:45:58,599 And we see beautiful flowers and animals and the sky and so forth. 264 00:45:58,599 --> 00:46:04,599 And as we know, our senses are very inadequate, they're very limited and 265 00:46:11,599 --> 00:46:19,599 so that we see reality through our senses only through a very narrow slot. 266 00:46:19,599 --> 00:46:22,599 And the rest is really unknown to us. 267 00:46:22,599 --> 00:46:27,599 And so we're looking at the physical objective reality which is oscillating as ... 268 00:46:35,599 --> 00:46:41,599 which also perceives it through action, rest and action and rest and action and rest, 269 00:46:41,599 --> 00:46:48,599 so one oscillating system is looking at another oscillating system and the picture... 270 00:46:48,599 --> 00:46:53,599 We can extend our reality through instruments, telescopes and microscopes, 271 00:46:58,599 --> 00:47:07,599 So our subjective reality then is the sum of impressions conveyed by our senses coded i... 272 00:47:07,599 --> 00:47:12,599 which are oscillating electrical states of the nervous system. 273 00:47:12,599 --> 00:47:19,599 And we're constantly comparing one thing to another, otherwise we would not perceive 274 00:47:28,599 --> 00:47:35,599 because the eye needs to scan all the time in order to see something. 275 00:47:35,599 --> 00:47:43,599 So both realities become real due to a change occurring between two states of rest. 276 00:47:51,599 --> 00:47:57,599 then reality, as far as we are concerned, disappears because we cannot perceive it. 277 00:47:57,599 --> 00:48:00,599 So let's look at the overall picture. 278 00:48:00,599 --> 00:48:10,599 Here is the atom, and it can be represented as a sine wave of motion and rest, 279 00:48:17,599 --> 00:48:26,599 Now let us take a hypothetical situation where we are taking a wavelength, let's sa... 280 00:48:26,599 --> 00:48:34,599 which has a very large amplitude, the distances between the points of rest are v... 281 00:48:42,599 --> 00:48:48,599 and we speed them up so that within the same length we have many more ups and downs, 282 00:48:48,599 --> 00:48:54,599 and let's say it's a violet photon, and then the points of rest get a little closer 283 00:48:54,599 --> 00:48:57,599 but we get more of them within that span. 284 00:48:57,599 --> 00:49:03,599 Then we speed it up even more, let's say the gamma rays or x-rays. 285 00:49:10,599 --> 00:49:21,599 Now let us imagine a hypothetical situation where the speed has become so fast that it... 286 00:49:21,599 --> 00:49:30,599 At infinite speed there will be no more oscillation, and the points of rest will i... 287 00:49:33,599 --> 00:49:38,599 Now what kind of state would that be? 288 00:49:38,599 --> 00:49:48,599 First of all we see that it's a paradox because the infinite speed now has become 289 00:49:48,599 --> 00:49:56,599 We could probably call it the state of the absolute, it's the source out of which all 290 00:50:04,599 --> 00:50:10,599 And when it begins to vibrate, then it creates all these different frequencies wh... 291 00:50:10,599 --> 00:50:15,599 as we saw before, creating our reality. 292 00:50:15,599 --> 00:50:22,599 So one could summarize this by saying the absolute is the point where extremes merge, 293 00:50:28,599 --> 00:50:39,599 And this state, the absolute state, is the substrate for all reality which emerges ou... 294 00:50:39,599 --> 00:50:47,599 In particle physics there is a principle of uncertainty which was formulated by 295 00:50:55,599 --> 00:51:00,599 The more we know about one, the less we know about the other. 296 00:51:00,599 --> 00:51:03,599 Apply to the pendulum, what does it give us? 297 00:51:03,599 --> 00:51:14,599 When the pendulum stops before it reverses direction, we do know its speed because it... 298 00:51:17,599 --> 00:51:23,599 So that means that at those points its location becomes unknowable. 299 00:51:23,599 --> 00:51:27,599 And as Ben said, it can be found anywhere in the universe. 300 00:51:27,599 --> 00:51:33,599 That is, it becomes the universe, it fills all creation, it is everywhere. 301 00:51:33,599 --> 00:51:42,599 And based on this, he developed much of his further thinking. 302 00:51:52,599 --> 00:51:59,599 and we touch that absolute state of total rest, but it happens so fast that we're no... 303 00:51:59,599 --> 00:52:01,599 And we come back as if nothing had happened. 304 00:52:01,599 --> 00:52:10,599 But suppose we can expand that state and experience it, and in fact we can, then th... 305 00:52:15,599 --> 00:52:25,599 And we can be conscious on that level simultaneously with this level, so that we 306 00:52:25,599 --> 00:52:32,599 And we can explore that reality and bring back the information, and this is in fact 307 00:52:45,599 --> 00:52:51,599 Usually in those states of expanded consciousness there is a different percept... 308 00:52:51,599 --> 00:52:57,599 People who come out of those states usually say, "Time has stopped," or at least it 309 00:53:03,599 --> 00:53:18,599 This is our time space, and this is the now moment where they cross, which is going fr... 310 00:53:18,599 --> 00:53:25,599 And we can project one second on it, two seconds on it, and so forth. 311 00:53:33,599 --> 00:53:41,599 However, superimposed on that are two other vectors of space-time, which are our 312 00:53:41,599 --> 00:53:45,599 And usually they overlap, and we don't even know the difference. 313 00:53:59,599 --> 00:54:04,599 And the angle of deviation actually determines the depth of that state. 314 00:54:04,599 --> 00:54:06,599 And look what happens. 315 00:54:21,599 --> 00:54:35,599 Now visualize the situation where the subjective time tilts more and more and mo... 316 00:54:35,240 --> 00:54:43,100 Subjective time is now overlapping objective space. What kind of situation would that be? 317 00:54:43,100 --> 00:54:48,200 Well, it would take no time to go anywhere 318 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:52,200 Because you are everywhere at once 319 00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:57,400 because your subjective time has overlapped objective space and 320 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,160 It's become infinite 321 00:55:04,039 --> 00:55:11,800 Expansion of consciousness in which you in you your consciousness fills the entire 322 00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:16,120 Well 323 00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,280 In those states where does one go? 324 00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:23,280 There are many places to go and again to put it into some kind of perspective 325 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:26,400 Ben designed this diagram of 326 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:38,600 Reflects a state of evolution of matter on that level and there is an indigenous 327 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:45,080 Population on all these levels that relates to that level and our human band is only o... 328 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:50,519 So he looked at consciousness in its totality if this 329 00:55:50,519 --> 00:55:54,039 Vector here represents the quality of consciousness 330 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:09,880 So here we put the atom the virus the plant and 331 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:15,960 An animal and finally a human being so this is where we are in the range of things and 332 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:19,760 levels above and of course, it's all going towards the 333 00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:31,440 Consciousness is modular a larger consciousness contains a lesser consciousness 334 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:35,760 we also see here these curves and 335 00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:43,080 These are called energy exchange curves and they peak in the middle of each band 336 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:45,640 which means that 337 00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:58,380 because our energy exchange curve is 338 00:56:58,380 --> 00:57:06,560 Highest in this level. However, we can also interact with the neighboring realities, b... 339 00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:14,500 Curve here tapers off so that we're not interacting as clearly and as well in thos... 340 00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:24,880 We seem to be tuned only to this physical reality and like a radio set 341 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,800 We can receive all the others, but we keep listening to this one 342 00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:31,080 But it's up to us to tune into all the others as well 343 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:39,039 Now the reality below us is the animal plants mineral those are the realities that 344 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:47,180 the upper part is 345 00:57:47,180 --> 00:57:52,539 interacting with the next level to the human band which is the so-called 346 00:57:52,539 --> 00:57:59,220 Emotional level or astral there are different names for these levels and it doesn't real... 347 00:57:59,220 --> 00:58:01,620 what it means and 348 00:58:01,620 --> 00:58:07,220 The next level is the mental than the intuitive or causal and so forth 349 00:58:15,019 --> 00:58:19,760 the the one next to us is the emotional level and 350 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:23,280 This is where we go in sleep as Ben said 351 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:26,360 This is a preview of coming attractions because when we die 352 00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,760 This is where we go and we all 353 00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:31,480 interact on this level 354 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,360 the next level is the mental level and 355 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:47,760 It's almost as if there is a customs official who says any emotions to declare and down ... 356 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:54,820 Release emotions that are negative actually the emotions such as fear or anger 357 00:58:54,820 --> 00:58:58,820 however love which sometimes is perceived as an emotion is 358 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:08,160 so 359 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:14,520 When you abandon those emotions you can enter the mental level and here your reality is 360 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:17,960 It is also so on our level but to a lesser degree 361 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:22,320 But here you're actually creating your reality, but what by what you think 362 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:26,880 The next level is the intuitive level and this is where 363 00:59:30,039 --> 00:59:32,960 people of creative professions 364 00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:35,240 particularly 365 00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:37,240 visit those areas and 366 00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:45,240 on that level they pick up a lot of information and they bring it down the 367 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:53,400 For example of an inventor or an artist when suddenly a solution comes or an image come... 368 00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:57,840 something that one perceived on this intuitive level and as you 369 01:00:01,820 --> 01:00:07,760 So there was an enormous amount of time here to study the entire situation and then to 370 01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:12,420 But when you bring it down it appears like a flash the aha moment 371 01:00:12,420 --> 01:00:16,720 Whereas in fact you spent a lot of time there getting ready for it 372 01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:25,920 Our next subject will be a very important principle the 373 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:33,079 the basis of reality as Ben perceived it and 374 01:00:33,079 --> 01:00:42,720 As usual Ben had some interesting diagrams to explain his ideas and he explained the 375 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:47,400 Three pebbles 376 01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:53,039 Being dropped into a pizza pan filled with water and you drop these pebbles 377 01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,360 I'm drowning in a pizza pan 378 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:10,640 So it sends out these wavelets that reach every point on the surface of this water and 379 01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:13,360 Every pebble does that 380 01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:15,680 so 381 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:19,720 If we take this water now which 382 01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:22,800 which resulted in a 383 01:01:30,539 --> 01:01:34,160 It's called the interference pattern in cross section 384 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:39,680 It would look like that and if you quick freeze the water and you get a piece of ic... 385 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:46,020 which is actually a photograph of all the information about these pebbles and 386 01:01:55,300 --> 01:02:00,360 A laser light and you shine it through this interference pattern 387 01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:06,320 Low and behold you see the three pebbles reconstructed three dimensionally in space 388 01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:13,480 This is the important part of the hologram that all the information is 389 01:02:18,539 --> 01:02:25,039 Because if by mistake you break this piece of ice and you end up with a little sliver of it 390 01:02:25,039 --> 01:02:29,160 And you shine the same lights through it. You will still get your three pebbles 391 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:31,480 so 392 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:33,079 this 393 01:02:33,079 --> 01:02:38,760 method of storing information is the most efficient way that nature has devised and 394 01:02:45,079 --> 01:02:51,120 Relationship between the micro level and the macro level when nature comes up with a 395 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:57,480 Method that really works then it will be repeated on all these different levels and... 396 01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:03,240 This is an actual photograph if you can see it of 397 01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:05,200 waves 398 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:09,120 interacting with each other creating this more a pattern of 399 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:24,320 Now if instead of those three pebbles we substitute three 400 01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:32,560 Individuals because we like the pebbles are constantly sending out information about 401 01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:35,640 all these fields are 402 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:53,240 Hologram of information about humanity as a whole we are one mind one consciousness an... 403 01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:55,840 the implications of this are 404 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:57,840 stupendous because 405 01:03:57,840 --> 01:04:02,880 If we realized there is that everything that we do that we think 406 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:13,600 Humanity, but it also goes beyond the boundaries of our planet 407 01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,360 and 408 01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:21,440 Another way of looking at this would be to see these three pebbles or three 409 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:28,400 Separate individuals who feel themselves so isolated on this physical level, but if these 410 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:31,160 lines here indicate 411 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:38,920 Consciousness we notice that on these higher levels. We begin to interact 412 01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:43,120 So these two are interacting here these two here 413 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:51,640 But all three are interacting on the next level and if you visualize humanity being 414 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:56,160 Billions of us then on the highest level. We are all 415 01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:59,000 interacting and we are all one and 416 01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:11,480 And it sort of percolates down or dribbles down into these separate units and we all 417 01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:15,520 separate and as we interact we 418 01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:22,840 Entrain each other as we saw before there is a principle of resonance and of entrainmen... 419 01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:39,900 Guru who has advanced somewhat beyond the others then his energy his consciousness w... 420 01:05:39,900 --> 01:05:47,160 It will be more harmonious and like those oscillators that we looked at it will entr... 421 01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:50,180 Consciousnesses that are less evolved 422 01:05:59,079 --> 01:06:01,520 that Ben 423 01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:08,539 Came up with as a result of his personal experience, but before that we will look a... 424 01:06:08,539 --> 01:06:15,240 Model of the universe according to the Big Bang theory as postulated by Gamoff 425 01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:28,780 In the infinite dark void 426 01:06:28,780 --> 01:06:37,760 All energy all space-time were condensed at one point the cosmic egg and 427 01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:44,400 This cosmic egg for a reason. We'll never know exploded and 428 01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:49,280 It exploded evenly in all directions and 429 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:59,400 Photons 430 01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:02,880 Gradually 431 01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:04,880 stable particles were formed 432 01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:07,920 protons neutrons and 433 01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:11,800 Gases began to form 434 01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:16,360 Helium and hydrogen gas were formed 435 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:25,100 with heavier elements 436 01:07:25,100 --> 01:07:27,400 forming in their cores and 437 01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:34,280 The stars were condensing into galaxies into clusters of 438 01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:38,840 Spiral and other galaxies and 439 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:45,760 As the stars aged they turned into red giants and 440 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:55,400 scattering cosmic dust through the universe and 441 01:07:55,400 --> 01:08:06,240 This cosmic dust containing heavier elements would condense again into clouds and 442 01:08:06,240 --> 01:08:09,720 new stars and 443 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:13,720 Planets 444 01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:37,279 nothing new only the forms change and the atoms from distant galaxies are found 445 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:53,560 the hologram to which we belong and of which we are a part an inseparable part 446 01:08:53,560 --> 01:09:06,279 and so now I will look at Ben's model of the universe which he developed having 447 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:23,079 because what he saw was a different kind of bang a continuous modest bang in the 448 01:09:23,079 --> 01:09:29,920 60s new celestial bodies were discovered and they were called quasars 449 01:09:37,640 --> 01:09:45,880 celestial bodies ever observed and many of them showed a jet emerging from the 450 01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:52,399 center and shooting out these galaxies are the most distant objects ever 451 01:09:52,399 --> 01:09:58,039 observed in the universe and they're the fastest object moving here we see the 452 01:10:05,079 --> 01:10:14,560 of the micro level reflecting the macro level and based on the evidence 453 01:10:30,239 --> 01:10:38,680 saying is that actually this is a prototype of what happened in the 454 01:10:43,960 --> 01:10:51,159 and that that cosmic egg instead of expanding evenly in all directions or 455 01:10:51,159 --> 01:10:58,600 isotropically as it's called it actually was an explosion in one direction 456 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:04,760 like a balloon pricked with a needle and what would happen if you had a jet 457 01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:16,880 it was the only thing in that vast void so this jet would be pulled back in 458 01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:24,319 upon itself by this gravitational mass it would be analogous to holding up a 459 01:11:24,319 --> 01:11:29,920 water hose and the water would eventually fall down and then rise again and 460 01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:43,239 bang a modest but a continuous bang quasars were observed to be not evenly 461 01:11:43,239 --> 01:11:48,560 distributed in the observable universe the observable universe is what we see 462 01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:55,119 through our telescopes if this is our earth then this is the radius of the 463 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:07,279 telescopes quasars were observed moving faster and being further away in the 464 01:12:07,279 --> 01:12:12,840 North Galactic Pole and in the South Galactic Pole there were more concentrated 465 01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:19,479 and slightly off the true pole by about 30 degrees so when Ben looked at that he 466 01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:24,079 realized that there was an isotropy in other words there was an uneven 467 01:12:30,319 --> 01:12:36,159 brought in a new element into the big bang theory and this is what he developed 468 01:12:36,159 --> 01:12:43,560 as his own so this would be the structure then this is the core of the 469 01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:52,840 structure which is called torus TORUS a melon like structure and matter 470 01:12:57,600 --> 01:13:02,800 from light radiation from photons to stable particles and so on then it 471 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:08,359 expands and visualize this as a three-dimensional form goes around and 472 01:13:08,359 --> 01:13:15,560 gets pulled back in upon itself into the black hole this is a white hole and the 473 01:13:15,560 --> 01:13:21,159 black hole back-to-back this is the gravitational collapse as galaxies are 474 01:13:31,039 --> 01:13:36,800 round to go around and around again and each time matter goes around it gets 475 01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:46,439 refined its consciousness is on the next round of the spiral this is where Ben 476 01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:58,319 the true galactic pole in the south in other words he said we may be looking 477 01:13:58,319 --> 01:14:04,760 straight back into the jet here whereas the other side showed the quasars 478 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:10,520 further away and moving faster that means that they were entering this 479 01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:24,079 consciousness as I said before there is nothing but consciousness and matter is 480 01:14:24,079 --> 01:14:31,520 only a form in which consciousness appears so in that case the expansion 481 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:37,359 that our galaxy is now entering the expansion of matter could also mean the 482 01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:51,840 experiencing a certain change in consciousness on this planet this would 483 01:14:51,840 --> 01:14:56,720 be the core of that torus structure the white holes through which energy 484 01:14:56,720 --> 01:15:01,840 emerges condenses becomes matter goes around gets pulled back into the black 485 01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:15,079 it's a situation where laws no longer apply and here a transmutation occurs 486 01:15:15,079 --> 01:15:20,920 of matter that has condensed to an extreme and it becomes energy again to 487 01:15:20,920 --> 01:15:29,960 reemerge as a new universe so one could say that there are several phases to 488 01:15:36,359 --> 01:15:43,039 expansion the ultimate expansion is at this point then there is condensation 489 01:15:43,039 --> 01:15:49,239 and finally a gravitational collapse where the gravitational pull is such 490 01:15:49,239 --> 01:15:58,000 that even photons can't escape to tell the story that's why it's a black hole as 491 01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:09,359 is the hologram remember that every speck of matter on the surface of this 492 01:16:09,359 --> 01:16:17,239 torus is sending out information about itself our galaxy does and so does a 493 01:16:17,239 --> 01:16:23,359 galaxy and many other galaxies which have gone ahead of us so that the 494 01:16:31,359 --> 01:16:37,880 about the entire structure this is the information that one can tap in those 495 01:16:37,880 --> 01:16:44,159 higher states of consciousness and in fact enter the knowledge that's 496 01:16:44,159 --> 01:16:49,520 available about the entire structure because we are a part of this hologram 497 01:16:56,000 --> 01:17:02,119 into the totality of the hologram we can have the information about every part 498 01:17:02,119 --> 01:17:10,520 of it and that's exactly what Ben did again the analogy between the macro 499 01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:16,760 level and the micro level this is very similar to the ordinary chicken egg in 500 01:17:23,359 --> 01:17:28,819 two ends of it and see if there was any current there and lo and behold there 501 01:17:28,819 --> 01:17:36,600 was a certain potential there of 2.4 millivolts very very small and yet 502 01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:45,920 there so there is a field around every seed and every egg in nature that we 503 01:17:51,319 --> 01:17:57,520 in this large torus so nature tends to repeat a certain design as an engineer 504 01:17:57,520 --> 01:18:01,760 Ben dealt with structures and he said there are certain elegant solutions to 505 01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:07,760 the problem so hologram certainly is one for storing information and this 506 01:18:07,760 --> 01:18:14,359 structure seems to be another one that is repeated on different levels so here is 507 01:18:19,180 --> 01:18:26,720 center it's hollow and it's an electromagnetic field and we could say 508 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:32,520 that this interference pattern of information could be called the universal 509 01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:41,319 mind hologram and also the concept of time enters here because it takes time 510 01:18:51,039 --> 01:19:00,800 energy to become matter so time becomes a factor of distance of energy as it 511 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:07,239 issues from the white hole and goes around because time exists when there is 512 01:19:16,479 --> 01:19:23,039 one round this is the birth of time and this is the death of time but seen from 513 01:19:23,039 --> 01:19:29,319 outside as we are looking at it now from another dimension we see that this is a 514 01:19:29,319 --> 01:19:35,520 continuum and we're looking at it from perhaps an eternal point of view so that 515 01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:46,800 it is the force of evolution again that keeps driving this along and then used 516 01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:54,600 to say that the Taurus is a distilling column of consciousness that this 517 01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:58,640 structure actually is refining consciousness which is equivalent to 518 01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:12,800 field like that around the human body and the different frequencies interact 519 01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:21,399 creating nodes and also medicine is moving into a new field new energy 520 01:20:21,399 --> 01:20:28,319 medicine or vibrational medicine the body is seen as a field of interacting 521 01:20:39,720 --> 01:20:48,039 we will look at Ben's personal experience through those higher levels of 522 01:20:48,039 --> 01:20:56,640 creation and these he described in his book which he called a cosmic book on 523 01:21:02,039 --> 01:21:13,600 structure so on that journey into the expanded states of consciousness it's 524 01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:18,520 like a guided tour you can ask questions and you get answers and once you 525 01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:24,600 understand and you say okay I got it the slide changes the pages turned and 526 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:38,239 fact he did perceive it in an expanded state and then he started figuring out 527 01:21:38,239 --> 01:21:44,319 what it's all about so having seen it he said well it looks like a bounded 528 01:21:44,319 --> 01:21:50,199 structure there must be something beyond it I want to know the moment the 529 01:21:56,539 --> 01:22:02,239 infinite void and the process is shown and explained 530 01:21:58,119 --> 01:22:04,199 and the process is shown and explained to him. In the vastness of the dark void, 531 01:22:04,199 --> 01:22:09,720 a certain part becomes activated. This is where action will take place, 532 01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:18,039 and a light describes a certain territory. He called it proto-matter. 533 01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:27,800 like the Chinese checkers, which get filled with those little marbles. 534 01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:38,359 And this field begins to polarize. As we saw before, the ultimate field of the absolute, 535 01:22:38,359 --> 01:22:48,039 which the void is, is reconciling the opposites. So the opposites of the plus an... 536 01:22:52,359 --> 01:22:57,639 And the tension is enormous, because they don't really want to be separated, 537 01:22:57,639 --> 01:23:03,000 and they want to come back together again. But this is what creates the dynamics of 538 01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:09,880 manifest creation, because you need the polarization in order for action to occur. 539 01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:28,119 pull, and one side reaches the other, and a sound actually fills creation. 540 01:23:28,119 --> 01:23:37,399 This is the sound, the first word, that creates different frequencies of vibration, 541 01:23:44,760 --> 01:23:54,599 going around. Then there is a secondary sound, and a droplet is left in the middle... 542 01:23:54,599 --> 01:24:02,920 the focal point of this structure. And this is the white and black hole that we saw 543 01:24:12,519 --> 01:24:19,239 in relation to the acorn. This center here, the black-white hole, 544 01:24:19,239 --> 01:24:27,720 is the consciousness that has the blueprint for this structure, and it's learning thro... 545 01:24:34,119 --> 01:24:43,319 and their consciousness is getting higher and higher each time around. This point grows ... 546 01:24:43,319 --> 01:24:51,319 process, it evolves. And what would you call a consciousness that is in charge of the 547 01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:07,079 creator. And he didn't know whether to call it a he or a she, he would say, you can't ... 548 01:25:07,079 --> 01:25:16,359 a chairperson of the universe, but it is the creator of the universe who is evolving by 549 01:25:25,559 --> 01:25:32,279 again, this is a bounded structure, so there must be more. And we, with our finite mind, 550 01:25:32,279 --> 01:25:39,399 cannot grasp infinity or eternity, so we want to see what's next. And so the moment you 551 01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:54,679 toroidal shapes appearing in the void. And as you approach, you see that they are arrang... 552 01:25:54,679 --> 01:26:03,159 spiral, seven universes per each rung of the spiral. This seems like a lot to take in a... 553 01:26:03,159 --> 01:26:08,359 and you begin to count, and you realize that there are seven rungs to the spiral, which 554 01:26:19,399 --> 01:26:25,079 something. And as you approach it closer, this brilliant white light seems to have a 555 01:26:25,079 --> 01:26:30,760 such as this. And then, being familiar with the Hebrew language, looked at that, and h... 556 01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:36,519 no, I must be programming myself. This looks like the Hebrew letter alif, the first let... 557 01:26:46,519 --> 01:26:55,239 an interference pattern of four energies interacting on this level, on this cosmic 558 01:26:55,239 --> 01:27:04,439 create this pattern, which is a consciousness whose body this is. This consciousness 559 01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:19,719 with the ducks, a more evolved consciousness, a larger consciousness will contain the 560 01:27:19,719 --> 01:27:30,840 As Ben was looking at all these things, he said, I'm just a tourist. I'm snapping 561 01:27:38,680 --> 01:27:47,559 cosmic journey on a bus, except some of us have window seats and some have aisle seat... 562 01:27:47,559 --> 01:27:54,359 to have a window seat so I can share with you what I'm observing. So he had no explanati... 563 01:28:01,159 --> 01:28:09,800 this alif a little closer, what he saw was that the front of it was a brilliant white 564 01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:21,000 back was dark and it looked rather three-dimensional. It's a hologram. And th... 565 01:28:27,639 --> 01:28:36,359 And he was explained again that these are interference patterns that were observed by 566 01:28:36,359 --> 01:28:44,840 seers in antiquity and they incorporated them into the Hebrew letters, into the Hebrew 567 01:28:53,559 --> 01:29:02,279 in a random mixed up order. And he was explained that these interference patterns 568 01:29:02,279 --> 01:29:10,680 of the alif energy down to the physical level. They step it down further and furth... 569 01:29:21,800 --> 01:29:30,199 what it's really saying that evil is simply ignorance of the law. The proper sequence 570 01:29:30,199 --> 01:29:36,680 of these characters is knowledge of the law, but a mixed up order is ignorance of the law 571 01:29:44,359 --> 01:29:53,880 Close up. This is the structure. The alif breaks itself down into three centers, thr... 572 01:29:53,880 --> 01:30:01,159 each one having these interference patterns in them which look like Hebrew letters and 573 01:30:10,199 --> 01:30:21,319 Each center has its own frequency in terms of color. The center which is love, ya, is gold. 574 01:30:21,319 --> 01:30:29,800 The center representing the will, call, is blue and the center representing the creat... 575 01:30:31,319 --> 01:30:37,079 When Ben looked at that he realized that the white light of the alif representing wisdom 576 01:30:37,079 --> 01:30:43,000 is a combination of all these colors and these are actually frequencies active on t... 577 01:30:43,000 --> 01:30:49,319 which create these holograms. Now the law that we talked about before, the cosmic law 578 01:30:49,319 --> 01:30:57,159 operative on this level is interpreted in a very ingenious way. These characters which 579 01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:14,199 If you read from left to right it reads "heilach" which means "go" or it's a green 580 01:31:14,199 --> 01:31:25,399 words you can act safely if you act from love towards will. But if you act from will to 581 01:31:32,119 --> 01:31:40,920 destruction or extinction. So that is the cosmic law. The cosmic law is love and the 582 01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:51,880 ignorance of the cosmic law then causes destruction. And the creative center read ... 583 01:31:59,960 --> 01:32:11,559 entire structure and this is what you see. The alif and his 49 creators is enclosed i... 584 01:32:11,559 --> 01:32:19,719 very similar to a biological cell and in fact it's like a DNA coil and it does split at ... 585 01:32:30,840 --> 01:32:36,439 you want to break out and you want to see what's beyond that. But you keep bumping i... 586 01:32:36,439 --> 01:32:43,479 and you can't get out. When finally you do break through this is what you see. You ar... 587 01:32:51,000 --> 01:33:01,960 structure it looks like a biological structure. So again you want to know where 588 01:33:01,960 --> 01:33:09,880 leading you and you go through this structure and this is what you find. There is a term... 589 01:33:18,119 --> 01:33:26,359 around it and on top of that you can only fit three so that they would be stable and on ... 590 01:33:26,359 --> 01:33:37,159 only one. So that from the side view it will appear like this. It will be one on top of 591 01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:55,479 tetrahedron. Now what's interesting about that is that in physics there is something 592 01:34:07,239 --> 01:34:13,239 from each other. It determines the size of an atom because it determines the tension and 593 01:34:13,239 --> 01:34:19,639 interaction between the electron and the nucleus. So it's interesting to note that ... 594 01:34:25,880 --> 01:34:33,639 have the diamond which is the strongest substance we know and it has a tetrahedral 595 01:34:33,639 --> 01:34:39,800 So there is perhaps a resonance here with the cosmic level and that's why the diamond 596 01:34:49,239 --> 01:34:56,519 two such tetrahedrons joined together and this is how that field of cosmos is the 597 01:34:56,519 --> 01:35:05,559 is formed. Once you break out of that soup of cosmoses you discover that they are contai... 598 01:35:14,359 --> 01:35:21,880 see that in the center of this perhaps you should call it super cosmos there is a hol... 599 01:35:21,880 --> 01:35:31,639 that uh cosmos shells are being formed and they emerge from that and evolve towards t... 600 01:35:40,099 --> 01:35:46,859 evolving up towards the aliph, so here the cosmos is in turn evolved towards the surface 601 01:35:46,859 --> 01:35:49,379 of the supercosmos. 602 01:35:49,379 --> 01:35:55,859 And the mature cosmoses then emerge on the outside, they begin to cluster together and 603 01:36:03,259 --> 01:36:11,319 and you see that this is a growing almost biological structure. 604 01:36:11,319 --> 01:36:18,619 Now on every level of these structures that you perceive there is a consciousness in 605 01:36:18,619 --> 01:36:23,579 The aliph was in charge of the cosmos and here on the level of the supercosmos this 606 01:36:28,719 --> 01:36:35,099 with a face or a likeness of a face will appear in it and say I can talk to you. 607 01:36:35,099 --> 01:36:40,899 And in order to understand what it's saying you merge with it and then you begin to 608 01:36:40,899 --> 01:36:44,539 a little more about that level. 609 01:36:44,539 --> 01:36:49,179 And here I would like to digress a little bit to talk about consciousness because there 610 01:36:52,420 --> 01:37:00,339 One that is the consciousness of the structure itself and the other that uses t... 611 01:37:00,339 --> 01:37:03,779 as a temporary dwelling. 612 01:37:03,779 --> 01:37:13,139 If we look at our own bodies and for example we talk to the cell of our kidney and we ask 613 01:37:13,139 --> 01:37:18,019 the kidney cell what is it that you do, what is your job here? 614 01:37:23,379 --> 01:37:24,779 ask the boss. 615 01:37:24,779 --> 01:37:26,779 Now who is the boss? 616 01:37:26,779 --> 01:37:32,299 It's the sum total of all the cells of the kidney and it already is a consciousness that 617 01:37:32,299 --> 01:37:37,859 you can interact with and the kidney will tell you well I purify blood I do this and 618 01:37:37,859 --> 01:37:45,179 I do that and so every organ in our body is a sum total of the consciousnesses of the 619 01:37:45,179 --> 01:37:47,859 cells that compose it. 620 01:37:54,899 --> 01:38:01,699 of all the organs and you could say that it's perhaps a rudimentary consciousness if you 621 01:38:01,699 --> 01:38:04,219 can call it that off the body. 622 01:38:04,219 --> 01:38:08,219 It runs the body when it is unconscious. 623 01:38:08,219 --> 01:38:14,699 In other words the other consciousness is a way when you sleep when you are under 624 01:38:19,420 --> 01:38:25,939 the heart continues to pump blood it is conscious and it's unrelated to the 625 01:38:25,939 --> 01:38:28,379 is temporarily away. 626 01:38:28,379 --> 01:38:35,460 So the same thing happens on every level there is a consciousness of the structure 627 01:38:35,460 --> 01:38:40,219 and another one that uses that structure and can come and go. 628 01:38:44,979 --> 01:38:51,579 It's a conscious being and there is a consciousness that runs the planet. 629 01:38:51,579 --> 01:38:58,059 It's electromagnetic field it's temperature it's currents and other things the ecology 630 01:38:58,059 --> 01:39:04,739 of the planet and then there must be another consciousness which uses it as a garage has 631 01:39:04,739 --> 01:39:10,059 been used to put it and it can come and go it's a much larger consciousness. 632 01:39:17,859 --> 01:39:24,500 So Ben perceived these consciousnesses as abstract forms that would appear on different 633 01:39:24,500 --> 01:39:30,019 levels and they would communicate with you and you can learn from them. 634 01:39:30,019 --> 01:39:36,099 We saw this on the super cosmic level then comes the unc the cross the two triangles 635 01:39:40,819 --> 01:39:48,539 first human form that runs the seventh level there were seven levels in all and each level 636 01:39:48,539 --> 01:39:56,299 ever simpler ever larger and comprising the levels that were below it. 637 01:39:56,299 --> 01:40:01,019 As I said consciousness is modular. 638 01:40:08,139 --> 01:40:16,859 are contained in one sphere the manifest creation everything visible and invisible 639 01:40:16,859 --> 01:40:27,420 that ever existed is in it and around it is this infinite dark void which is the 640 01:40:37,819 --> 01:40:44,500 So as you come closer to this you begin to discern what appeared to be rotating discs 641 01:40:44,500 --> 01:40:53,259 covering its surface and as you look closer this is what you see instead of discs you 642 01:41:02,619 --> 01:41:09,319 these shapes spin around and there are three layers of these and the fourth the outermost 643 01:41:09,319 --> 01:41:18,099 layer looks like this and you begin to recognize these as shapes known as the 644 01:41:25,799 --> 01:41:32,179 So again you're explained when you ask about it these are not Sanskrit letters these are 645 01:41:32,179 --> 01:41:40,059 holograms interference patterns that are active on that level and they were perceiv... 646 01:41:40,059 --> 01:41:46,659 seers and incorporated into the Sanskrit alphabet. 647 01:41:57,359 --> 01:42:06,259 that runs this the ultimate consciousness and you want to understand how this structure 648 01:42:06,259 --> 01:42:15,619 is run and what's happening with these rotating discs and you are explained that ... 649 01:42:24,899 --> 01:42:32,619 it expands into the surrounding void which is pure consciousness as we remember so that 650 01:42:32,619 --> 01:42:42,339 as it expands into it the void begins to penetrate it and these rotating discs are 651 01:42:53,420 --> 01:43:00,939 then begins to interact within itself it's a hologram of sound or a hologram of different 652 01:43:00,939 --> 01:43:10,659 frequencies that begin to create all kinds of harmonics and all kinds of additional sounds 653 01:43:17,019 --> 01:43:30,259 is forever evolving so then you ask so who is the top god who runs this structure and 654 01:43:30,259 --> 01:43:38,939 the moment you ask you find yourself in the infinite void and suddenly a brilliant light 655 01:43:45,259 --> 01:43:54,399 realize you are talking to the ultimate god of the structure so what do you do you peek 656 01:43:54,399 --> 01:44:01,619 under and you realize that this is a tunnel of light so you enter that and you begin to 657 01:44:01,619 --> 01:44:08,139 ascend and you go faster and faster and in fact you begin to tumble down faster and 658 01:44:14,500 --> 01:44:22,899 and you know that that is it and you will soon be confronting the god of manifest 659 01:44:22,899 --> 01:44:30,059 as you finally look at it you realize that you are looking at yourself a carbon copy 660 01:44:39,099 --> 01:44:46,819 know what to say to yourself how's the weather up there what do you say to yourse... 661 01:44:46,819 --> 01:44:56,019 revert to your old tested trick you merge with yourself so that by merging you can know 662 01:45:03,179 --> 01:45:12,219 into yourself like into a tight garage and when you finally do what happens is that 663 01:45:12,219 --> 01:45:22,259 is a tremendous bang and you become the void because you are the consciousness which is 664 01:45:32,579 --> 01:45:41,259 that was watching through your eyes and guiding you through this obstacle course t... 665 01:45:41,259 --> 01:45:48,299 to yourself your higher self was the observer that had never left and was watching you 666 01:45:56,539 --> 01:46:06,219 to reunite with your own self and so we could say that we are the creators the producers 667 01:46:06,219 --> 01:46:14,899 and the consumers of our own reality because we are the consciousness itself and Ben liked 668 01:46:26,299 --> 01:46:36,019 on the vast canvas of the self the picture of many fold worlds is painted by the self
