How to See What Really Is. The Rishi’s Eternal Yet Elusive Knowledge
incredible to go outside and 2 a.m. with the mountain in a cloud—still, serene, timeless
exploring Wim Hoff breathing technique… looks very good so far.
Left right handed tantra: nothing about being right or left handed. Filters to be cleansed and refined, not torn open, Enlightenment does not mean light flooding in because filter is ripped open,

Depth of Being vs Intensity of Feelings
Current Events
The good news is that with modern communication, politicians will realize that age old deception and cover ups will no longer work.
Humanity is waking up.
However, that realization is coming with great resistance and denial.
Ancient Rome became corrupt, the politicians forever conspiring to advance their careers
The electorate became more and more composed of relatives of nobleman and politicians, putting the power over the state in their hands, eventually giving into bribes to get the people to vote the way they wanted
Then becaming dependent upon a handful of big families
This system became dependent upon personal contacts and influence
Sound Familiar?
“Communism succeeds in the crush of human spirit”
east/west: Surface to depth versus depth to surface and the best of both worlds
Heaven above, and the chakra system
Viktor Bout: On his return to Russia, in an interview with the Kremlin-controlled TV network RT news, he said, “What is happening in the West is simply the suicide of civilization. And, if this suicide is not prevented, at least within the non-Western world, within the world that is not controlled by the Anglo-Saxons, then the whole planet will commit suicide. And it may be happening in all areas, with drugs and LGBT+ among them.”, “ …teaching first graders there are 72 genders”
medical cartels… I was now proven right at cost of alienating some back then.
Omnibus Biils should be outlawed…thousands of unread pages passed into law with tons of ‘pork’ [add on laws, etc. slipping in]
Current proposed Omnibus bill… locks it all in for a year before house changes at years end.
Worthwile to hear what others are saying: French news, and on YouTube: Gravitas news, RT news.
Biden is giving $55 billion to Africa for reparations
Michelle Obama wrote Twitter telling them to censor Trump
Last year more people died from fentanyl than from automobile, accidents, gunshots, and suicides combined
state of psychophysiology
Origin of word “Barbarian”: Romans invading Germania and native langauage sounded like “blah blah”.
Who are the barbarians throughout history? and now?
Time to consider what it means to be a barbarian

First Under-stand, Only Then Proceed: The Simple Elusive Solution
Nobody in the news or anywhere else is taking a big enough step back to take a look at what’s really going on
ATRI: We do not have to look very hard to realize that there were ancient technologies that we do not understand today. ATRI ancient technology research Institute is revealing those ancient technologies and employing them
Overheated engine like Yugas.. soma lubricates/cools
Soma strength vs agni strength
“Be Soma Strong” button
Can we discuss the following delicate topic and keep balance?
Homogeneity, female/male, yin/yang: Mona Lisa
Expand definition to accommodate the range of each gender
It is set an a person is enlightened they’re equally male and female
Key hidden in last place anyone would look
soma refinement
Agni male Agni female
Positive incarceration
Mona, Lisa smile
“Be soma strong”
Inner strength
Sort of [not so much] like the tortoise and the hare story
Why, the nation is dependent upon drugs: too much agni
Adderall: speed and the yin/yang hamster wheel
Until fire and water are in balance there will be no world, peace, famine, hurricanes, forest fires, etc. will continue
We must clean the fish bowl of global consciousness
Soma/agni. Yin/yang water/fire. It is all about balance.
Convoluted thinking, across-the-board, symptomatic phase transition of the first order
World is agni oriented on fire
Male, female versus masculine feminine
when cleaning ur house, dust gets raised
imbalance permeates all aspects of life/mentality:
everywhere you look: drugs, border, corruption, etc.
and:
1] Homogenized humanity
2 ETX: woke meets finance: In a nutshell money wants to regulate money power wants to regulate power.
3] Even physics: Lost in math
Copenhagen versus statistical ensemble, interpretations of Schrodinger equation
Bell’s theory to big bang
4] multi-nattionals
5] 7 million able-bodied men in the US are not in the workforce which is unprecedented in times of peace and it is estimated they spend approximately nearly 40 hours per week on screens
Water in fishbowl of global consciousness is not only dirty but it’s also overheated
“ trust that God is with you”: transcendental basis is what that is about
one step at a time
step one: clear and cool the fish bowl water and the rest will then happen

Fundamental principle of Healing psychophysiological Centers, i.e. Chakras: If you can feel it, you can heal it.
tonal quality of group consciousness. influences individuals in that group.
Tonal quality of a people cultures a society held and conveyed through individuals.

people are waking up. the only question is how far will it go before it reverses back to sanity
rebelling against the touchstone
What “high class” really means
Meeting such a high class individual made me realize how far we have to go as a culture… Very humbling
Brings to mind the question of what that tonal quality will be like in the golden age
We all live in the same cultural soup
happens by proximity, TV, books, etc.
media boom starting with TV significantly and then expanding to internet, etc. tends to create lowest common denominator, but as people see this happening more and more, will become committed to group consciousness of orders based upon nature of their psychophysiology’s… I.e. people will protect their minds. drugs are another major component resulting in people resonating with lower common denominator
e.g. when i was a kid, public school upheld a particular level of group consciousness but that has degraded with mechanics described here.
higher values of group consciousness include refinement, dignity, wisdom, intelligence, grace, respect, for others nd for self, humility, culture integrity, decorum, polite social behavior
Monarchy ideal: dignity behavior personal conduct
Fascinating concept of a monarchy/ Queen Elizabeth apolitical though Britain clearly did some vile acts in the colonies
Orange marmalade sandwich
Asheville NC in top 10% crime cities in USA. could feel decay in group consciousness over past years
asheville is antifa hub. People avoid Asheeville… nothing needed there anyway.
mayor and officials radical left.

radical left mayor and city officials…. amazing how we could just feel it when we

Queen Elizabeth influential history: Royalty/USConstitution mapping/correlation… Royalty is apolitical
no written constitution
will King Charles be political?
E.G. Can not divide property

The ancient secret foundational mechanics revealed. How the world really works: the crystalline structure, underlying all life and existence
ratna, crystaliline energy of temple/enlightened city
ratna in first mandala Rig Veda
Yantra: gears, moving
Mt Soma…Resonance: building a crystalline touchstone
the veil of maya, illusion in all its forms
blurb: Mechanism of the emerging ratna,
Quantum mechanics the mechanics of the quantitization level of existence
Cycles of Time: the sun rises and sets
Conceptualization vs. Actualization: eternally elusive but now within our grasp.

Energy is control for example Europe is under control of Russia via pipeline on/off switch and if US turns over energy control also is turning over self determination
Tick-tock USA versus tick-tock China…controlling mentality of nations

Trying to bury it or push it away it’s just a form of denial… answer: the Light of awareness heals. The knowing IS the doing.
Simplistic versions of deep spiritual concepts may just have their value for example to be God-fearing or regarding the notion of Satan ”his greatest strength is that people cannot recognize him even when they see him”
Mount Soma, the Crucible: “It always seems impossible until it’s done” Nelson Mandela
Udana vayu: prana that carries past life karma with it. Energy between 4ttth and 6th chakras. . Refined and you can do anything
Current human condition: Emotionally based twisted convoluted passionate perspectives of one and other. or is it just a fishbowl that desperately needs to be cleaned?

Gravity affects time. Atomic clock runs differently on earth than in deep space due to gravity effect. Field equation is the umbrella between Lorenz transformations and Maxwells equations and gravity
Space is not curved
Space time is an artiical math construct used to make calculations—really there is no such thing in the physical world
big bang only works mathematically if u could divide by zero to get infinity [Chaitanya/transcendent]. assumed electrons were points with no size at all [zero].. Beyond physical…. Infinite pillar/linga of light in Puranas. Haranyagarba shape of universe, etc.
Truth dwells hidden within us all. /Reaching for it… yet echoes of truth hold truth at bay. Field equation has been around for 100 years but wrong interpretation [divide by zero] led scientists astray for all that time.
A deeper understanding is coming out, but still not accounting for Chaitanya.
GPS..how it works: gravity, ‘general’ relativity, time corre vtion
From perspective of relative, Chaitanya is virtual. But relative is virtual [Maya]…illusion. Can not grasp the ungraspable… can not divide by zero.
[Big bang, black holes, etc. is in Absolute, not relative]

Dump into deep sea trenches goes all way down to aesthenosphere below earths crust. Mariana trench 7 miles deep and fills with sediments. Never see it again. Mix with magma. Millions of years to resurface… ½ life expired?

religion is not the problem. superficial superstitious understandings of religion is the problem. Don’t throw out Baby with bathwater.
People get carried away with their hocus-pocus new age sort of interpretation of Vedic knowledge which is a highly sophisticated knowledge but they reduce it down to superstition and that is tragic
The Indian community generally speaking has seen it all and is then far more mature in its relationship with the hocus-pocus and left handed tantra.
Emotional Indulgence vs. the path of Wisdom
Echoes of truth hold truth at bay.

Huge Sri Yantra on ground Oregon like Nacza Plains… how did it get there?
I am exasperated with what is going on in the world. Don’t really want to keep talking about it. But the light of awareness heals. Here is some of it:
The good news is that it is so absurd that people are seeing past it.
The pendulum will swing
Adderall and Ritalin opioids are killing people: rate up 3000% anti-depressants all suicides up 35% big Pharma it’s all about the money
Over 200 million prescriptions per year in our country of 300 million people add to that all of the recreational drugs and it’s clear that essenttially the entire society is being drugged and then of course voting
Antidepressants mask depression : claim it is a chemical in balance which it is not as more current research admits. But still using it.
Tom Cruise said this years ago. At the time for most of us that was obvious but now many ssee it at prophetic !
Even Faucy is admitting that they’re not sure what the effect is of the Covid vaccine on the female reproductive system
Current research shows that people who took the vaccine are 80% more likely to get sick of course the medical community ignores this… of the money by the money for the money
10 to 0 vote medical advisory committee said to not provide the drug for Alzheimer’s which now seems to do nothing for Alzheimer’s they did and do prescribe it anyway
Johann Hari “Lost Connections” the real cause of depression
Your emotional pain is telling you something that you really need to hear masking it with drugs does not work
George Orwell the best way to control a society is to control its language first
Med schools spend “more time teaching pronouns that kidney disease.”
We are in recession with inflation and the governments solution” is to just redefine the terms
Big government weaponization Department of Justice, FBI, etc. to be their own political hit squad Tulsi Gabbard
Ukraine is autocracy blacklisting dissenters even Americans
China buying up farmland cattle ranches and acreage often in close proximity to US military and nuclear bases. Can set up monitoring and sabatoge.

Before we begin: come help out at Mt Soma–free room/board and stipend.. options: kitchen, outdoor, handyman, office assistant, etc.
The main reason corruption reigns is because people can not believe anyone can be that corrupt.
Secondary reason,
Corrupt manipulation creeps in gradually … infiltrates as if unnoticed convincing people of a bogus perspective
third reason: mass cowardice to resist
Motivation of behind the scenes manipulators: gain power, control, money, to takeover with their new world order must destroy what is
Lenin: the worse the better
Behind the scene manipulators manipulate front men to manipulate via blackmail, threats, or convincing/brainwashing the foolish puppet leaders
