LD20080723 - David Hudson - Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found - Part 6

Part six (6) of David Hudson's 1990s talk "Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found?" is upon us. This episode finishes the science and new findings segment of the lecture, and starts the historical retrospective, having a bit more of a speculative feel than the former parts. Newcomers will want to listen to parts 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 before this one.

Come get the mp3, 29.8MB in size and 52:57 in length. Tune in next week for the exciting conclusion to this series. Also in the pipeline is a phone interview with Subtle Energies' Barry Carter. Send any questions or comments for Barry to me in email.

LD20080716 - David Hudson - Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found - Part 5

This is number 5 in a series of parts of a lecture given by David Hudson in the 1990s entitled "Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found?" If you missed the other four parts, you might wish to listen to them first: part 1, part 2, part 3, and part 4. In this part Hudson presents, with sources, compelling evidence that the white powder of gold, also known as the philosopher's stone (and by many other names through the ages), is the common thread in all the old mystery religions, Egyptian spirituality, esoteric Judaism, and in suppressed Christianity.

The ark of the covenant, the holy grail, the philosopher's stone, they all seem to be obscured in the mists and myths of history, but perhaps there is a straight path through what was once occult. Science has begun to understand the realm of the spirit. Materialism is giving way to in the face of discoveries and rediscoveries (which are now gaining traction, validity, and verifiability in the scientific world). This episode and the following few will show these connections; I hope you enjoy listening to them.

As previously mentioned, in the weeks ahead I hope to feature the current center of the ORMUS "universe", Barry Carter. In the meantime, check out his very in-depth site about ORMUS. Stay tuned for more details about his interview.

Here is the mp3 for your listening and downloading pleasure; it's 28.8MB big, 55:02 long. As always, please tell me what you think.

LD20080709 - David Hudson - Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found - Part 4

This is part 4 in my multi-part David Hudson lecture "Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found?" Parts 1, 2, and 3 may be desirable to hear before delving into this one if you are jumping in mid-series. In this part, Hudson addresses more spiritual concerns than in the prior three parts, which cover more hard science and published and peer-reviewed research.

This episode of Live and Direct is 52:40 long and takes up 28.7MB. Please download, listen, and enjoy. As always, feel free to email me.

LD20080702 - David Hudson - Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found - Part 3

This is part 3 of my coverage of David Hudson's lecture on ORMUS entitled "Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found?" If you are new to the scene, I highly encourage you to start at the beginning; check out parts one and two of this lecture before listening to this part. Furthermore, googling "David Hudson ORMUS" and perusing Barry Carter's Subtle Energies site will provide hours of reading material.

You may listen and download the show, which will net you an mp3 that is 44:43 in length and 26MB in weight. Enjoy the show, email me with your thoughts, and stay tuned for the rest.

LD20080625 - David Hudson - Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found - Part 2

This is a continuation of last week's lecture on ORMUS/white powder gold/m-state material. It has many names in the modern parlance, but perhaps the ancients were more succinct in calling it mzkft, which translates to "what is it?" In this week's segment David elucidates more chemistry and physics behind ORMUS. Again if you are interested in what you hear, please check out Barry Carter's Subtle Energies site. I have talked to Barry and in the near future I intend to feature him on Live and Direct to talk about ORMUS. You too can be a part of this fascinating, accessible, little-understood phenomenon (especially if you live near the sea, a good source from which to extract ORMUS).

This week's episode is 29.3MB, byte-wise, and 51:15 long. I hope you enjoy it, and stay tuned for the next part.

LD20080618 - David Hudson - Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found - Part 1

In this episode I introduce the concept of what we in the modern day call ORMUS or white powder gold (a bit of a misnomer since it includes not only gold but also other metal group elements), or m-state materials, what alchemists called the philosopher's stone, and what in ancient times was called the manna or mzkft ("what is it?").

In the 1990s a farmer living in the southwest US named David Hudson made a mysterious discovery in the tailings of his mining expeditions. This episode is the first in a series of parts from a lecture David gave entitled "Has the Philosopher's Stone Been Found?"

For more (quite extensive) information, discussion and pictures relating to the ORMUS phenomenon, check out Barry Carter's site Subtle Energies. At his site are several email lists discussing the effects of ORMUS and how to make it by extracting it from natural sources.

The last 5 minutes of the show feature chanting by Dufay named "Nuper Rosarum Flores".

Listen or download to this episode here. The mp3 is 54:59 long and takes up 62.9MB. Enjoy it and stay tuned for the rest of the lecture as well as more in-depth discussion of ORMUS in the coming weeks.

LD3: Weather

Here is my third episode of Live and Direct. This one clocks in at 45:18 long, and 41.5MB big.

This show is about weather, specifically of the man-made variety.

Here's the playlist of songs:

• They Might Be Giants - The Sun is a Mass of Incandescent Gas
  
• The Weather Girls - It's Raining Men
  
• Little Fluffy Clouds - The Orb

Here are some pictures demonstrating atmospheric phenomena that most people would agree are beyond the common understanding of meteorology:

• holes punched out of clouds:
  
  
  
• geometric cloud patterns:
  
  
  
• wave fronts in existing clouds made by scalar weather manipulation (clouds aren't supposed to have r-r-r-ridges):
  
  
  
• "boiling sky/boiling clouds" - I saw this phenomenon, along with many other people, at the 2005 Common Ground fair in Unity, ME. Check out my gallery of weird weather from 9/25/05. Regretfully those pictures are terribly overexposed, but I have increased the contrast so you might be able to see the "artificial domes" in the cloud bottoms that fair attendees saw that day. Compare the relatively normal clouds in the first picture (taken at about 12:30pm) with the rest of the pictures (taken roughly two hours later).

I talked about a number of web sites and people in the show, and here are links to some of them:

• A short list of "starter" sites about weather modification:
  
  • Scott Stevens' Weather Wars site (some pictures from the site are included below)
    
  • Tom Bearden's site about weather phenomena
    
  • Ken Adachi's Educate Yourself, a site featuring many, many interesting, compelling, and far-from-mainstream topics, including chemtrails and weather modification.
    
  • discussion and hyperbole about chemtrails and weather modification, as well as speculation and very loosely-connected other topics.
    
  • User-centric forum for discussion of chemtrails and related phenomena. As with the last few sites, your discretion is advised. Many of these sites need to be taken with a rather large grain of salt and with your conspiracy-theory aluminum foil hat firmly on.
    
  
  
• Sites about the mathematical and scientific background behind scalar weaponry and weather modification technology:
  
  • a long and interesting essay urging that we re-examine classical electromagnetism in light of comparatively recent discoveries in particle physics, by John Bedini, an alternative energy researcher. [NOTE: as is elaborated there, Lorentz (not Heaviside as I suggested) was responsible for truncating Maxwell's equations into two components: the traditionally used and recognized "Poynting" component, and the neglected and ignored, but potentially more significant "Heaviside" component.]
    
  • Tom Bearden has an overview of Gabriel Kron's "negative resistor" employed by the Navy's 1930's GE/Stanford University project named the "Network Analyzer" (now postulated to be an overunity energy device). This has, according to Bearden and Bedini, been a serious and long-standing oversight in the physics community, and that, would we recognize Kron's "open path" model in favor of our more limiting "closed-path" model used in classical circuitry and electrical engineering, we would be much further along. [PERSONAL NOTE: it is altogether likely that along with such amateur scientists as Bedini and Bearden, the likes of Tesla, the Russians, and now the US and other governments are using this knowledge. Disclosing this knowledge to the scientific community at large would, however, necessitate a lot of subsequent explaining of their motives for suppressing the knowledge. Alternately, one could speculate that most scientists are not willing to stick their neck too far out against the science orthodoxy ("Never attribute to malice of forethought what can be attributed to ignorance.")]
    
  • The Revealed Secrets of Classical Electrodynamics, "Generalised Classical Electrodynamics
    for the prediction of scalar field effects" (also linked here), a lengthy and dense, but illuminating scientific paper by Koen van Vlaenderen of the Netherlands
    
  • The Wilhelm Reich Museum, Orgonon, in Rangeley, Maine. They have copies of Reich's books available for purchase and they host an annual conference on Orgonomy (this year's will be from July 29 – August 1, 2007)
    
  • PORE - Public Orgonomic Research Exchange has current work related to Reich's ideas
    
  • The Orgone Biophysical Research Lab is a current, practicing laboratory exploring orgone
    
  • googling Steiner Biodynamics will show some of the similarities between Reich's and Steiner's energy theories. After Steiner's death several people applied biodynamic principles to the atmosphere's behavior with some success.
    
  
  
• Sites about the politics of weather modification:
  
  
  
  • GovTrack's page about S. 517 [109th]: Weather Modification Research and Development Policy Authorization Act of 2005
    
  • Weather Modification a Long-Established, Though Secretive, Reality by Mary-Sue Haliburton
    
  • The Air Force's Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning the Weather in 2025
    
  • Tom Bearden's site mentioned above has the following quote (mirrored in an archive of the Defense Department's page) from the former Secretary of Defense, William Cohen, at an April 1997 counterterrorism conference:

    "Others [terrorists] are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves… So there are plenty of ingenious minds out there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon other nations…It's real, and that's the reason why we have to intensify our [counterterrorism] efforts."

    
    
  • finally, another Blogger user has posted a concise and informative overview of weather modification.
    
  
  

Once again, thanks for listening to my show. I welcome any feedback you have. Keep looking up and don't lose your sense of wonder. Also, feel free to send me pictures of strange weather phenomena that you have witnessed. As Lao Tzu said, "The master observes the world, but trusts his inner vision."
