Watch the full video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/JfwIlrLVyLsIn this episode of Cosmosis, we share a never-before-released talk by Dr. Diana Walsh Pasulka, recorded live at the Inquire Anomalous conference in New York City. Diana—religious studies professor and author of American Cosmic and Encounters—takes us on an astonishing journey through her research into Catholic mysticism, Vatican archives, and modern UFO contact experiences.From levitating saints and the mysterious Woman in Blue to redacted mystical narratives and the ontological shock of encountering the impossible, Diana reveals surprising links between ancient religious experiences and contemporary reports of contact with non-human intelligences. She also speaks candidly about her own transformation, the eerie resonances between the sacred and the anomalous, and her collaboration with figures like Tyler D. and Dr. Garry Nolan on the frontier of space, consciousness, and belief.This episode includes the full live Q&A with Diana—where she responds to insightful (and sometimes wild) audience questions about redaction, religious symbolism, and whether spiritual devotion might offer protection from malevolent entities.

To give to the Behind Greatness podcast, please visit here: https://behindgreatness.org. As a charity, tax receipts are issued to donors. Thanks for joining us at behind Greatness. We sit down with Dr. Garry Nolan at his home in California. Garry is an Immunologist, an academic, an inventor and patent holder and a business executive. He also holds the Chair in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine. We pack this conversation with Garry's practice on focusing on the data to provide the conversation piece with other scientists and the public. We talk about Garry's personal experiences when he was younger and how they serve as fuel to his scientific inquiry. He elaborates on the importance for him in hiding his long term intent behind a cloak of real science. We hear about his research in a Harvard lab on the basal ganglia, prompted by earlier work done with Kit Green and high functioning remote viewers and intuition. We learn from him about doing science best with asking the Zen question - so that the answer will always move you forward. And, we hear a refreshing perspective on speculation of the non-human intelligence question and that “something behind the scenes”. As a life-long question-maker, he also shares with us the type of person he honours and why. Why? Because ‘why' is the answer. That's why.

In what way is beef in UFOs religious-like? Is there evidence for collective visions of these objects and entities, or rather for their objective reality? In what way could the experience have elements of both? In this episode we have the ever more mainstream story of UFO experiences to assess; Not necessarily the important questions around the existence of the phenomenon, which the office of the US director of National Intelligence confirmed in an official 2021 report that they were, in fact, a ‘population of objects' (see show notes below)- but rather the belief in the phenomenon, in 2008 polled at around %37 of Americans, but by no means confined to the US. This widespread belief, along with less ridiculed beliefs bolstered by the high probability of extraterrestrial civilisations more advanced than our own existing out there in the cosmos, has had a huge sociological and cultural influence on western society. So in this episode I want to put into a sociological context all of this quasi-religious belief; understand the role of our perception of technology; get our heads around a rare example of a modern myth forming in real time; look at the ways a phenomenon can be both physical and psychological at the same time; and examine various scientific, academic and even philosophical doors into this confounding phenomena that no matter how much the sceptics deny, just won't go away. So when we study belief we have to turn to a religious studies specialist, and who better to call on than Professor of Religious studies at the University of North Carolina, Diana Pasulka. She's also the author of 3 books, “Heaven Can Wait”, a book about purgatory, “American Cosmic” on scientists who believe in UFO's, and her new 2023 book “Encounters” on multi-disciplinary academic approaches to the UFO phenomenon and experiences with non-human intelligence. Don't forget listeners, that we talk about all the science in more detail with Stanford medical School's immunologist, pathologist and inventor Garry Nolan in this series so check that out too.

This is part one of a discussion with VETTED Host and Producer Patrick Scott Armstrong, and my UFO research partner in the upcoming The Aviary Movie. In this first hour I take questions about a crash site in New Mexico where my field Mark Olsen took NASA engineer Tim Taylor to a UFO dig being conduced by Chuck Wade. We talk about if this is the same or different from the gifting field talked about by Diana Pusulka in her book American Cosmic and podcasts she did after the release. I talk about the photos I have and the small piece of metal I have from the New Mexico site.
Patrick discusses Tim Taylor aka Tyler D as he is known in Diana Pasulka's book American Cosmic and Chris Bledsoe's book UFO of God. The famous story of Diana Pasulka's trip to a secret UFO crash site with Tim Taylor and Garry Nolan may be a Lie. Not that they didn't go, but that the site may not be a UFO crash site at all or if it is, it's not the one she was told it was.
Patrick discusses Lead Scientist from History Channel's The Secrets Of Skinwalker Ranch Travis Taylor's SHOCKING comments about Lawyer Daniel Sheehan in a leaked email by Physicist Jack Sarfatti. We also discuss Scientist Eric Davis' comments also calling out Daniel Sheehan. And remember Eric Davis is one of David Grusch's 40 witnesses and well known for the Wilson/Davis Memo. *And the rabbit hole doesn't stop there as we also, at the end of the video, tease tomorrow's video about some bombshell news I came across that if true about Tim Taylor aka Tyler D from Diana Pasulka's book American Cosmic, changes what we know about Tim Taylor's motivations.
This week I'm reading from Dr. Diana Walsh Pasulka's book 'Encounters: Experiences with Nonhuman Intelligences'.A revolution is underway. For the first time in human history, we are at the cusp of experiencing contact with nonhuman life-forms of all kinds due to technological innovations and research into the experiences of people at the forefront of this development.In Encounters, author D.W. Pasulka takes readers to the forefront of this revolution, sharing the work of experts across a spectrum of fields who are working to connect humanity with unknown life-forms.Most of us have visions of nonhuman encounters that are shaped far more by Hollywood than they are informed by the current research. Encounters rewrites our visions of nonhuman species by featuring the work and stories of contemporary innovators who are rethinking our most basic assumptions about life and its manifestations beyond our experience.The author of American Cosmic, D.W. Pasulka is a professor of religion at UNC, Wilmington; her work as a scholar has given her the tools to systematically examine data that exceeds rational categories—exactly the skillset needed to parse the world of UFOs, angels, AI, dreams, and other dimensions, which exist at the edges of human understanding. Encounters is a riveting exploration of the leading science of nonhuman life and a bold glimpse of the future of humanity in a universe where we are far from alone.BioD. L. Pasulka is a professor of religious studies at the University of North Carolina, Wilmington.Works include American Cosmic, Heaven Can Wait, as well as two co-authored books about religion and technology. She is the author of academic essays, appears on podcasts, and presents her work internationally. In cooperation with the Vatican, she is the lead of the translation project of the canonization records of the saint, Joseph of Copertino.Dr. Pasulka's research spans Catholic history to modern day reports of UAPs and UFOs. American Cosmic has been featured in mainstream presses such as Vice, Vox, Fox News, Tank, The Los Angeles Review of Books, Publisher's Weekly, and Kirkus Reviews. Dr. Pasulka has been interviewed by The History Channel, Showtime, as well as being featured on podcasts including Vox Media's Ezra Klein, Mysterious Universe, Coast to Coast, and Lex Fridman. She's presented at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, universities, and is a popular speaker, internationally, and at home.Additionally, Dr. Pasulka consults about religion and history for movies and television, including The Conjuring.

In Episode 343 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Diana Pasulka, a professor of religious studies who writes and teaches about the history of the Catholic tradition and new religious movements. Her work in this field has led her to study UFOs, or what we now call Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), about which she has written two books: American Cosmic and Encounters, both of which form the basis for much of this conversation. In the first hour of their conversation, Pasulka and Kofinas discuss why so many people with reputable track records and prestigious positions in academia, government, and the private sector have devoted and continue to devote their lives to investigating this phenomenon. They also discuss what it is that is being alleged by people who claim to have knowledge of the UAP and UFO phenomenon and what sorts of explanations make sense in the context of what we know to be true today. The second hour of their conversation is devoted to answering two fundamental questions. The first has to do with the nature and operational structure of government. Specifically, how is it that the United States Congress—the most powerful legislative body in the world—has been unable to get the answers to basic questions about secret UAP programs allegedly run out of government agencies and military contractors? Second, if some of what is discussed in the first hour is true, what else must be true, and what underlying assumptions about the world, our perception of it, and our place in it need to be re-evaluated or discarded altogether?

Today, I bring you something truly special. In this episode we're welcoming Diana Walsh Pasulka back to the show to discuss her groundbreaking new book, Encounters: Experiences with Non-Human Intelligences. Encounters is a worthy and deeply challenging follow-up to American Cosmic, which we've talked about extensively on this show. I hope you'll all read it, because we'll definitely return to those ideas again and again.I want to say ahead of time that this episode is going to be a little less accessible than the content I usually release here, and that is intentional. Diana has been doing the podcast circuit to support the launch of Encounters, and there have been some really phenomenal interviews going into the specifics of the book. In particular, I recommend her recent appearances on Somewhere In The Skies and That UFO Podcast—both did a great job of diving into the characters and experiences portrayed in the book, and they are worth your time.Hardcore listeners of the show will know that, over the last year, my thinking around the subject of UFOs has been deeply influenced by Plato's Cave, and particularly by a somewhat radical read on what it has to teach us that was first introduced to me by Diana and frequent guest of the show, James Madden. It was actually in one of Diana's classes on UFOs and the Cave where I first met Jim, and eventually struck up a friendship. And I've spent the last 18 months processing and integrating the things I've learned from them both. I'm profoundly grateful for what that process has opened up to me, not just in terms of my understanding of the phenomenon, but with regard to the meaning and possibilities inherent in human experience.On November 27th, Jim will also be releasing his first book on the UFO topic titled Unidentified Flying Hyperobject: UFOs, Philosophy, and the End of the World which is being published by my new publishing house, Ontocalypse Press. Back in October, I had the absolute pleasure of finishing up the edits on Jim's book, while simultaneously reading an advance copy of Diana's and I was fascinated by the interplay between the ideas in both. I found myself thinking that the episode that I really wanted to make with regard to both of these phenomenal books would be one that didn't involve me, and in which Diana and Jim were given free reign to explore a conversation on their own. Luckily they agreed, and the result is the stunning conversation that I have the privilege of sharing with you today.This episode is definitely challenging, but for those of you who've been following along on this journey, you're in for a real treat. I have links to both Jim and Diana's books in the episode brief so you can get your hands on those if you haven't already. In my opinion these are two of the best and most important books about the UFO phenomenon published in recent memory, and both are destined to be classics of the field.

Historiansplaining: A historian tells you why everything you know is wrong
The UFO has been called a "technological angel" and the central mythic symbol of the modern age; we examine some of the extraordinary stories, from throughout history, of strange lights and objects seen flying through the sky, from medieval Italy to modern New Mexico, and consider carefully the problems that they present -- for historians, as well as for government, and for ordinary people who want to fit the strange and anomalous into our understanding of the world. Suggested further reading: Diana Walsh Pasulka, "American Cosmic"; Vallee & Aubeck, "Wonders in the Sky"; Ross Coulthart, "In Plain Sight"; Graeme Rendall, "The Foo Fighters," Debrief Magazine, Dec. 2021. Correction: The biologist to whom D.W. Pasulka refers as "James" in "American Cosmic" is Garry P. Nolan, not Craig P. Nolan.

VYS0030 | To Believe or Not to Believe - Vayse to Face with Emily Louise - Show Notes Possibly the weirdest thing that Vayse could do at this point is to interview someone who doesn't believe in any of this phenomena at all, someone whose no-nonsense approach to searching for the actual facts behind well-known events in fringe history and UFOlogy has earned her Youtube channel tens of thousands of subscribers - it's British documentary maker and researcher Emily Louise. Hine and Buckley find an unexpected amount of common ground with Emily as they discuss her journey from wide-eyed belief to pragmatic scepticism, what it is that makes human beings sometimes believe ideas that are provably untrue, which famous conspiracy theories Emily thinks probably do have truth to them and Vayse finally tackles (with the help of a hardened sceptic) the recent David Grusch revelations...

My guest for this episode is Dr Diana Walsh Pasulka, who joined me to talk about her new book ‘Encounters: Experiences with Non-human Intelligences'. Diana is a professor of religious studies at the University of North Carolina, Wilmington. She writes and teaches about the history of the catholic tradition and new religious movements, particularly as they intersect with digital technologies. Her published work has explored topics as varied as from the catholic doctrine of purgatory to UFOs, to human potentials and has received international acclaim, with her 2019 book ‘American Cosmic' especially offering an intriguing insight into the religiosity of the UFO mystery. In Encounters, she writes about the work of experts across a range of fields who are endeavouring to connect humanity with unknown life-forms and help to encourage a rethink on some of our most basic assumptions about life and its manifestations beyond our experiences. I begin the interview by talking with Diana about her first book about purgatory, and how researching and writing that led on to her other writing projects such as American Cosmic. We then move on to her new book and talk about some of the people featured in it, and the work they are doing to help reorientate our understanding of the world around us.

On today's episode of the Occult Symbolism and Pop Culture with Isaac Weishaupt podcast we prepare for an upcoming interview with Professor Diana Pasulka!

I'm reposting this for all new audience listeners and those that want a refresh from our talk about the Invisible College of UFO researchers because we're going to catch up with some of the characters in her world and some really interesting theories about what's going on with the Disclosure efforts and impending alien spirituality!Show sponsors- Get discounts while you support the show and do a little self improvement! 1.

On Thursday July 18th, 2019 the Hermetic Hour will review and discuss "American Cosmic" by Diane Pasulka. Again our guest reviewer will be Frater Dumuzi. Diane Pasulka is a professor of religious studies and approaches the UFO phenomenon from her academic perspective. She is a colleague of Jacques Vallee and shares many of his views. She quotes Carl Jung and cites the experiences and work of numerous "experiencers" (her term for contactees). She compares the UFO sightings and encounters to religious and mystical encounters such as the Miracle of Fatima and UFO artifacts to the Shroud of Turin. She also suggests that popular media feeds and perpetuates the phenomenon. Her approach is very subjective and impressionistic and her narrative is rambling and not well focused, but this, in and of itself, reflects the history of the activity she is attempting to describe. So, if you think "The Truth is Out There" tune in and we'll look in Dr. Pasulka's X-Files.
Dr. Diana Pasulka is a writer and professor of religious studies. Her most recent book, American Cosmos, is a plain-clothes investigation into the way beliefs are constructed, maintained, and exchanged at a cultural level. In it, Pasulka catalogues her journey through the highest echelon of the UAP world, and the surprising identities of the monastic mystics she found there. We talk about disclosure, belief, meaning, the speciation event, and covert government operations.

The very possibility that they could represent vehicles piloted by non-human intelligences from another world challenges us as a civilization to ask paradigm shifting questions about ourselves, and our place in the Universe. In this episode, Cristina Gomez talks with Dr. Diana Pasulka about those implications, especially in regards to religion.Diana Walsh Pasulka is a professor of religious studies at the University of North Carolina, Wilmington.

American Cosmic has been featured in mainstream presses such as Vice, Vox, Fox News, Tank, The Los Angeles Review of Books, Publisher's Weekly, and Kirkus Reviews. Dr. Pasulka has been interviewed by The History Channel, Showtime, as well as being featured on podcasts including Vox Media's Ezra Klein, Mysterious Universe, Coast to Coast, and Lex Fridman. ABOUT SHIFTING THE PARADIGM -Shifting the Paradigm is a weekly show with a format that is centered around streaming on KUNX Talk Radio, Talkstream Live, and Paranormal Radio. In each episode, Cristina Gomez interviews specialists in their fields, be it authors, field investigators, researchers, or pioneers in the topics of unusual mysteries, strange places, mysterious events, and the big questions that challenge our understanding, and paradigm.
In the 2019 book American Cosmic, scholar Diana Pasulka offers a surprising and original perspective on one of my favorite topics: UFOs. She proposes that UFOs and the obsession with them has become a type of post-secular religion. She even shows that modern accounts of UFO encounters closely resemble religious visions of yesteryear. But one of the most interesting things about Pasulka's book is what she shares about the shift she underwent personally as she studied more and more about the subject—from somewhat skeptical to more and more curious to eventually convinced that there is a real phenomenon that we need to study. She was helped along on that journey by two individuals, scientists who are part of what is sometimes called the “Invisible College,” meaning researchers and academics who study this phenomenon but don't talk publicly about it. One of those individuals, celebrated Stanford professor Gary Nolan, has since become more public. And UFOs have as well. The subject has emerged from underground counterculture conversations into something approaching the mainstream. Even government is getting involved, with the recent congressional hearings (something I discussed with Australian journalist Ross Coulthart on an earlier episode of this podcast). For this episode, I'm happy to have the opportunity to talk to this unique religious scholar who is delving deeply into the more esoteric dimensions of subject—beyond the “nuts and bolts” of UFO research. Her inquiry is less about sightings of physical aircrafts (though she does share a fascinating story of being taken, blindfolded, to an alleged crash site in the desert)—and more focused on consciousness, subjective experience, and meaning. Indeed, there is a dimension of this phenomenon that interfaces with spiritual or ontological aspects of the human experience in ways that are unusual, surprising, and sometimes just, well, strange. I've wanted to talk to Dr. Pasulka for a long time and I'm thrilled to finally have her on the podcast.
What comes to mind when you hear the word ‘Angels?' Sweet strains of harp music? White feathered wings stretching out from behind a bare-chested man with six-pack abs? Angels pre-date Christianity. In fact, every ancient civilization holds a belief in angels. Most people consider angels protectors, blessings to our lives, benevolent helpers of humanity; but do they have a darkside? There's a great man I'd like you to know about, who used angel magick to survive death row, where he was wrongly convicted and held for many years. I'll share his story with you. Finally, angels are depicted in a myriad of ways, but one of the most disturbing comes in the form of art based on accurate biblical descriptions. Looking more like creatures from sci-fi movies like Alien, than romance novel covers. Speaking of aliens, there's a group of scholars that are questioning whether angels are actually aliens!

Author and professor Dr. Diana Pasulka joins Blurry Creatures for an enlightening view into the convergence of UFO culture and religion. Chair of the Department of Philosophy and Religion at UNC-Wilmington, Dr. Pasulka wrote American Cosmic in 2019, which explores the connections between UFOs, religion, and technology. Over the course of a six-year ethnographic study, she interviewed successful and influential scientists, professionals, and Silicon Valley entrepreneurs who believe in extraterrestrial intelligence---bringing the topic of UFOs out of the fringe and into the mainstream. Dr. Pasulka graciously unpacks her journey in academia and its unlikely collision with the UFO phenomenon. She shares her own personal experience reviewing historical no-access documents in the Vatican and explores the relationship the church has had and continues to have with unexplained UFO experiences. Is the thriving belief system in extraterrestrial life, changing traditional religions or becoming a religion unto itself? Is how people interpret unexplainable experiences changing in the wake of media and pop culture? Come down the rabbit hole and find out.

Here she helps us understand the connection between tech, religion & aliens, explains why you might think about something & then see it show up in your life & why some Christians get offended at the idea of interplanetary life.If you liked this episode, you'll also like episode 95: THE PENTAGON SAID UFOS ARE REAL?!

LIVE CHAT WITH US Wednesday June 15th, 2022 at 2PM EST LINK: https://youtu.be/ml1XrasoHcwOn today's episode of the Conspiracy Theories and Unpopular Culture podcast we have a V-E-R-Y special episode because we are joined by the guys over at "Bledsoe Said So"! This is very important because podcast host Ryan Bledsoe is part of one of the biggest (*if not THE biggest) UFO-Alien-Phenomenon-Contact cases EVER recorded! His father and brother were part of a CE4 case that's been featured on Discovery channel and resulted in continuous investigation by practically every intelligence agency and scientist on the planet that's been studying the Phenomenon. We'll take the first 15 minutes to go around the horn and introduce each member of his team (Alex on the ones and twos, Nick as the hype-man host and Ryan as the host). After the introductions, the magic really happens as Ryan puts us in a trance with his retelling of the story that might just be one of the most important transformative events in evolving human consciousness. I don't say this in jest; I mean this. That's why the story of visitors healing his father from a disease has been investigated by so many people and even featured in American Cosmic as part of the Invisible College's research into other world contacts. You're going to hear Ryan and his family's experience in dealing with this, the ups, the downs, the messages the aliens sent, the hypnotic regression of his father and his story of the abduction on the craft, Discovery Channel screwing them over and so much more. There are brief side discussions on MUFON, Eschaton, Age of Aquarius (coming soon!), Tom DeLonge and even the revealing of the identity of the infamous "Tyler Durden" from the American Cosmic book's Invisible College! WILD STUFF TODAY! This show will echo throughout the entire alien phenomenon disclosure movement.These guys are all genuine and honestly some of the nicest people I've met in this fringy alien-conspiracy world!BIG ANNOUNCEMENT (1 of 2): they'll be releasing an episode on Wednesday June 15th, 2022 where yours truly makes an appearance on Bledsoe Said So!!

In part one of this 3-part series on the UFO lore connected to WWII and Nazi Germany, we begin by doing a deep dive into the emergence of UFO lore itself. While there is a ton of UFO lore connected to WWII, what is largely considered to be the first modern UFO sighting didn't happen until 1947—2 years after the war ended. So to understand exactly what was going on during WWII, we need to first understand, not just how UFO lore first emerged, but how belief systems in general emerge and evolve over time.We'll talk about the ontological complexity of the 20th century, the sequence of events in 1947 that shaped our modern understanding of the phenomenon, and dive deeper into the mystery surrounding the lore to ask some of the bigger questions. This includes one question that I never thought I'd ask, which is—could the emergence of UFO mythology be the seeds of a modern religion?A massive shout out to Diana Walsh Pasulka for her incredible book, American Cosmic, which helped me look at the phenomenon in a whole new light and played a big role in shaping this episode.
