WHERE DID THE TIME GO?

August 3, 2023 LRS

Even though I’m a “Child of The 60’s” I never heard the magnificent voice until today. Where does the time go, indeed? The decades since then have passed in the blink of an eye. The centuries that have passed since 1960 BCE may have well have been yesterday. The past is present in the ‘eternal now’ of our soul and only a memory of away from our senses.

Sandy Denny (6 January 1947 – 21 April 1978), born Alexandra Elene Maclean Denny, was an English singer and songwriter, perhaps best known as the lead singer for the folk rock band Fairport Convention. She has been described by Allmusic‘s Richie Unterberger as “the pre-eminent British folk rock singer”.

After briefly working with British folk band the Strawbs, Denny joined Fairport Convention in 1968, remaining with that band until the end of 1969. She formed the short-lived band Fotheringay in 1970, releasing one album with them (another unreleased album would surface some three decades later), before focusing on a solo career. Between 1971 and 1977, Denny released four solo albums: The North Star Grassman and the Ravens, Sandy, Like an Old Fashioned Waltz, and Rendezvous. She is also noted as the only guest vocalist on a Led Zeppelin studio album, when she shared a duet with Robert Plant for “The Battle of Evermore” on Led Zeppelin IV (1971).

Music publications Sunday Express, Uncut and Mojo have each called Denny Britain’s finest female singer-songwriter. Her composition “Who Knows Where the Time Goes?” has been recorded by many artists as diverse as Judy Collins, Nina Simone and Cat Power. Unfortunately, Sandy was afflicted by drug addiction and died in 1978 after falling down a flight of stairs.

Although Denny had a devoted cult following in her lifetime, she did not achieve the mass market success that she sought. In the years since her death, her reputation has grown. A four-album box set entitled Who Knows Where the Time Goes? (1985) was produced by her widower Trevor Lucas and Joe Boyd and included many rare and previously unreleased tracks.

70 CANDLE KARMA

July 28, 2023 LRS

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

I was inserted (as a Spiritual Being) into my current biological body on August 12, 1946, at the hospital in Albion, MI at 2:14 p.m.. So, as of today I have ridden the “Earth Ride” 70 times around the Sun. Another day, another Karmic Candle on the Cake of Life.

I have a vivid memory of viewing the green forests of central Michigan from about ten thousand feet above Earth seconds before “swooping down” into my “new body” 70 years ago. This image is intensely real to me! I have no slightest doubt that this was the moment at which I was “inserted” into the body I have inhabited during this lifetime with the name given to me by my parents: Lawrence Rodney Spencer.

After than moment the first “sentient” memory I have is of sitting in a high-chair being fed canned peaches by my mother at about the age of two years. I remember this moment as being the first time I asserted my personal opinion, and therefore, me identity. I told my mother that the fruit she fed me were pears. She insisted they were peaches. I belligerently insisted that they were pears (knowing they were, in fact, peaches) in an effort to assert my “rightness”. My mother was so upset by my argument that she began to cry in frustration. I was delighted to have created such a dramatic effect on my mother…on the one person who completely controlled me life. At that moment I knew that I was a unique individual. I was “me”!

During the intervening years since the birth of my body I have struggled to comprehend “who I really am”, a quest infinitely more painful than birth as it transcends the elements of time, space, energy, matter, and life itself. I have always had a profound sense that “something isn’t right” about being stuck inside a biological body. Indeed, I sensed that that being on the planet Earth was fundamentally wrong, and seriously fucked up!

When my body was young and physical fit (i.e. able to work all day and fuck all night) I was certain that I was, like most stupid human animals, invincible and physically immortal. Now that my 70 year old body is crippled by arthritis and immobilized by a lifetime of cumulative work and sports related injuries I have become alarmingly aware of my personal and imminent physical mortality!

Moreover, as I have regained more awareness of my personal spiritual immortality, I have come to realize that I am NOT a biological entity, and that the planet Earth is not my “home”. I am quite certain that the entire “physical universe” is nothing more than an illusory construct of the cumulative, agreed upon illusion created by the collective thoughts of all immortal beings who share the opinion that the physical universe is “reality”. I have also become aware that this is nothing more or less than my “personal opinion” based on my unique and peculiar “point of view” within the context of what I consider to be my own, “personal reality”. I am equally certain that my “reality” is only one of approximately 8 billion others on Earth.

During my current lifetime I usually held the opinion that any individual on Earth, as a spiritual being, was fundamentally transcendent, powerful and able to control their environment and their own, spiritual destiny. After 70 years of observation, experience and evaluation I’ve discovered that this idea is bullshit.

Nicola Tesla, probably the most profound inventor, intellect and idealist in the history of Earth, summarized the human condition as follows:

“The human being is a self-propelled automaton entirely under the control of external influences. Willful and predetermined though they appear, his actions are governed not from within, but from without. He is like a float tossed about by the waves of a turbulent sea.”

I puzzled for many years about the “reasons why” for this statement until I discovered the subject of Vedic Astrology. I discovered, to my alarm and dismay, that our entire spiritual and biological existence on Earth is predetermined by a mathematical matrix that combines physical planets and mathematical constructs called “constellations” into “programs” that determine our thoughts, behavior, perceptions, emotions and destiny.

The book Alien Interview reveals that the Vedic Hymns were brought to Earth in the Himalaya Mountains of Northern India about ten thousand years ago by an extraterrestrial invasion space force called The Domain. Coincidentally, the highly precise spiritual and mathematical science of Vedic Astrology, i.e. the technology of understanding the machinery of the “prison planet matrix” of Earth is manifested and revealed.

When I consulted a Vedic astrologer about my personal “program”, as pre-programmed and revealed by the exact date, time and physical location of my body birth, I asked him the following question:

“Is between lives amnesia caused by the loss of a biological body, and all of the pre-programmed behavior connected to it?”

His answer: “Yes”.

When a being enters into a new body a new “program” begins based on the exact day, time, physical location of the body birth. Conversely, the program associated with the dead body disappears with the dead body, along with all memories associated with it, and replaced by a new program. Memories associated with the dead body and it’s programming are replaced in the attention of the being with the programs and physical demands of a new body in a new location in a new lifetime.

Hypothetically, a being could avoid all of this confusion, turmoil and amnesia simply by avoiding the assumption of a new baby body on Earth. “Avoid The Light” that beckons the being into a new program of biological imprisonment on Earth. This theory sounds simple. However, I have not personally met a being who has successfully avoided reincarnation, or the influences of the Astrological Programming associated with the solar system of Earth.

Karmic Fate or self-determination? The Alien Interview transcripts tell us that Is-Bes who are incarcerated in biological bodies on Earth no longer possess the spiritual volition to choose their own lives and destiny. Until we raise ourselves above the state of “human being”, or some invasion force dismantles the Astrological Programming machinery, we’re stuck here for the Rest of Eternity. I don’t know if the information in this book is true or not. However, it is something I’m thinking about today, as I conclude 70 years of incarnation in my current body.

As I begin another trip around the Sun I am hopeful that we can find ways to make our lives more enjoyable during the next 70 years than they have been since we were transplanted to Earth from other times, planets or universes.

FALSE MEMORIES ARE REAL

May 5, 2023 LRS

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

If you read the book ALIEN INTERVIEW, you know that humans on Earth are given amnesia and false memories between each incarnation or lifetime. Thanks to modern “science”, we may soon be implanted with MORE FALSE MEMORIES while we are sleeping! Earth “scientists” have now demonstrated (using laboratory mice) that they can make us all feel “happy” about being imprisoned on Earth. Remember the films “Total Recall” from 1990 or 2012? The “science” in these so-called “science fiction” films will soon to become what we call “reality”. In other words, you may be “happy”, but you won’t know who you are, where you are, when you are, why you are, or what is or isn’t real.

Read the article below, and the links to other articles on the subject published in The Guardian

“Researchers at CRNS (click here to see a list of the Global Corporations who fund the research done at The National Center for Scientific Research) in Paris create artificial positive feelings in mouse’s memory for first time during sleep, highlighting possible new treatment for depression. Scientists have succeeded in creating false but happy memories in mice, in the first demonstration of memory manipulation during sleep.

In the study, positive feelings about a particular place were artificially written into the animal’s memory, which caused them to seek out that place in search of a reward when they woke up. The discovery that emotional memory can be readily manipulated has echoes of the the film, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, in which Jim Carey’s character has every recollection about his failed relationship wiped clean using a fictional mind-reading technology.

The scientists say that the findings could pave the way for new treatments that would allow patients to overcome depression or deeply entrenched painful memories. Karim Benchenane, the neuroscientist who led the research at the CNRS in Paris, said: “The idea is to use this as a tool for post-traumatic stress disorder.”

Steve Ramirez, a neuroscientist at Massachusetts Institute of Technology who is also working on memory manipulation, described the research as a “technical tour-de-force”. He said: “It demonstrates a little bit of mastery over how the brain works. “In future it should be possible to dampen the punch of traumatic memories in people.”

In the study, scientists implanted two electrodes in the brains of mice – one in a region of the hippocampus, the brain’s memory centre, involved in mapping locations and the second one in the brain’s reward centre.

In both mice and humans, our environment is physically mapped out in the brain by so-called “place cells”, which light up like coordinates on a grid as we move through space. The scientists picked a particular place cell neuron and observed which location it related to in real-life as the mouse roamed around a large exploration area.

During sleep, mice typically replay these sequences of place cell activity – effectively their memory replaying where they have been during waking hours. The scientists rigged up the electrodes, such that during sleep, whenever the target place cell became active it triggered the delivery of a reward stimulation in the second electrode.

Although the memory of the place was initially neutral, during its sleep, the mouse learned to associate it with something positive happening.

“When they woke up the mouse went straight to that place as though it was waiting for a reward,” said Benchenane.

The study demonstrates what we subjectively know to be true — that the factual content of our memories and the emotional content are stored in different brain centres and can be changed independently.

Benchenane believes the findings could be the basis for a non-invasive tool for memory manipulation in humans. Rather than electrodes, functional MRI scans could be used to identify when a person is replaying a specific memory during sleep, he suggested.

However, the authors said they would be cautious about rushing to try and test this in PTSD patients. “It might be extremely dangerous to get a reward for something fearful,” he said.

Ramirez agreed that in future, the findings could have clinical applications. “The big thing technologically is we don’t have a good non-invasive way of manipulating brain activity. One day it should be possible though,” he said.”

REMEMBERING

April 20, 2023 LRS

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Here is another astonishing video of a 3 year-old piano virtuoso! This is one more PROOF that reincarnation is a FACT, in spite of the “stupor-stition” and lies of religion and psychology that demands that you “believe” that we are ONLY biological bodies who “evolved” on Earth! In the United States this child would be “diagnosed” as “hyper-active” and FORCED to take Ritalin or Prozac, or some other form of psychiatric mind-poison designed to KILL the vitality, intelligence, energy and ability of this being!

It is obvious that it is IMPOSSIBLE for any 3 year old child to play the piano like this. So, we must ask ourselves: where and when and on which planet did this Immortal Spiritual Being develop this level of technical and artistic expertise? In order to do this, we must REMEMBER WHO WE REALLY ARE!

ESCAPING FROM PRISON

April 15, 2023 LRS

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

The North Korean man in this video was born in a prison camp. Three generations of the families in this prison were also born, and lived their entire lives there without ANY knowledge that they were INSIDE and prison, or that there was any life beyond the prison! They lived in as virtual, and literal state of “amnesia”, regarding their past, and where they came from!

This is a real-life demonstration of the phenomenon that isolation causes Amnesia. I am referring to the kind of Amnesia that human beings, as immortal spiritual beings, experience here on Earth. On Earth, as a “prison planet”, we are completely isolated from all other sentient civilizations in this galaxy. We are born here, we live here, and we die here, generation after generation, with NO communication or certain knowledge that there is ANY other life beyond the walls of our confinement on Earth.

The experience of the young man in this video interview is a grim reminder that we can forget WHO We Really Are, as Spiritual Beings. Through perpetual isolation, and the lies of “evolution”, we also forget Where We CAME From, and who we arrived on Earth, as spiritual entities. When we know nothing about life beyond the walls of our prison, it is easy to forget our Immortal past.

However, I would like to Remember Who I Really Am. I would enjoy knowing other Beings who also remember life outside the walls of our prison. If we want to “escape”, we must begin somewhere. The first step toward “escaping” from prison, it to discover that we are living IN a prison! This may seem like a completely “crazy” idea. But, think about it…. It is really outside the realm of possibility that an an intergalactic, totalitarian government could set up a planet as a prison camp? For details about this idea, read the Top Secret transcripts published in the book ALIEN INTERVIEW.
