Humanity stands on the precipice of an unprecedented transformation. The world as we know it is unraveling, and a new paradigm is being woven into existence. On today's episode, we welcome Gregg Braden, a scientist and visionary, who has spent decades decoding the deep mysteries of our past to illuminate the crossroads of our future. As civilizations rise and fall, as technology accelerates beyond the scope of human comprehension, we are left with a single question—what does it mean to be truly human?In this profound conversation, Gregg Braden unravels the deeper layers of a world hurtling toward 2030.He warns of a silent war—one not fought with weapons but with ideology, with the very fabric of human biology. We are witnessing an era where the boundaries between human and machine blur, where artificial intelligence, genetic modification, and digital surveillance seek to redefine the human experience. But at what cost?He speaks of a parallel world emerging, one where a faction of humanity blindly surrenders itself to technological integration, eager to be plugged into an artificial consciousness. And yet, another group resists, striving to retain the raw, unquantifiable essence of what it means to be alive. This division, he explains, is not just societal—it is spiritual. "The goal of the struggle between good and evil is to deny us our humanness," he says. If humanity forgets its own divinity, what remains but programmable flesh?This is not speculation; it is happening now. Governments and corporations are openly designing a world where biology is rewritten, where emotions, intuition, and even the capacity to love are seen as inefficiencies in need of an upgrade. But Braden reminds us: we are the technology.The human body is an intricate, self-regulating system capable of feats beyond our comprehension. Every breath, every thought, every intention activates a hidden intelligence embedded within us, far superior to anything silicon could replicate.But there is more at play. Ancient prophecies, spiritual teachings, and modern science converge upon the year 2030 as a fulcrum—a moment when humanity either ascends to its highest potential or succumbs to an engineered reality. From the Mayan calendar to the Kali Yuga, from biblical scripture to the ominous strategies of global institutions, the signs are all around us. The world is being remade, but who is writing the blueprint?The key, Gregg Braden insists, is consciousness. This is not a time for fear, but for awareness. By reclaiming our ability to think critically, to love deeply, and to choose with intention, we preserve what is sacred. This is the true battle—not against external forces, but within ourselves. The choice is simple yet profound: do we relinquish our sovereignty to a system designed to suppress, or do we awaken the divine potential that has always been within us?SPIRITUAL TAKEAWAYSTechnology vs. Consciousness – We must be vigilant in ensuring that technology serves us, rather than enslaving us. Human potential is not meant to be replaced, but awakened.The Power of Awareness – Understanding the agendas at play gives us the ability to make informed choices. Fear paralyzes, but awareness liberates.Living as a Sovereign Being – Our divinity is not something given or taken away—it is inherent. To preserve our humanness is to honor the sacred within ourselves and others.As we stand at the threshold of a new era, we must ask ourselves: what will we become? The world is shifting, but we are not merely observers—we are the creators of the reality that will unfold. And so, the invitation remains: awaken, remember, and reclaim what is yours by divine right.Please enjoy my conversation with Gregg Braden.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

Richard Rudd was suddenly blessed with a state of divine clarity within which he was able to create a map for our soul's journey in this lifetime. He called it the Gene Keys, which has become a worldwide phenomenon, helping millions of people understand their unique challenges and gifts in this lifetime. As someone who has been highly resistant to teachings that imply predestination, instead of being constrained by the Gene Keys, I was overwhelmed by the beauty contained within this system. I was also wildly excited by the holistic way in which power animals, sacred totems, and certain initiatic paths can unlock further introspection and evolution on my path.

#339 In this compelling podcast episode, Guy engaged with guest Gregg Braden, a renowned author and researcher, on the critical issues of our time, particularly the impact of technology on human potential and divinity. Gregg discussed the rapid advancements in technology such as AI, computer chips, and medical sensors and how these innovations are being integrated into human biology. He stressed the importance of recognizing and preserving human divinity—the innate ability to transcend perceived limitations—amidst a growing movement towards transhumanism. The conversation spans topics like the implications of editing human genes, the challenges posed by unresolved emotional hurt manifesting as societal hate, and the urgency of confronting these changes before potentially irreversible shifts by 2030. The episode underscores the need for a balanced, thoughtful approach to technology that respects and enhances human life rather than diminishing its innate power and divinity. About Gregg: From 1979 to 1990 Gregg worked for Fortune 500 companies as a problem solver during times of crisis.

In this episode of God Talk, we delve into the complex relationship between money and spirituality, exploring whether money is inherently evil or a blessing from God. As part two of our three-part series on Conquering Life's Worries, we examine biblical teachings on money, highlighting the importance of the heart's intentions in financial matters. Join us as we discuss how money, mentioned in over 2,000 Bible passages, can either be a source of great stress or a tool for generosity and thanksgiving. We address common misconceptions, such as the belief that money itself is the root of all evil, and emphasize the crucial role of financial management in achieving a God-pleasing life. We also provide practical advice on handling finances, including the benefits of tithing, avoiding overcommitment, and maintaining a budget. Learn how to create allowances for personal spending to prevent financial strain and discover how generosity can lead to greater blessings. Tune in next week as we continue our series and uncover the number one issue that people struggle with in their lives. Thank you for listening, and God bless!

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John welcomes back Steve Prendergast as a guest on today show. It was Steve who came up with a line that your subconscious mind is either your greatest asset or your greatest challenge in life. John and Steve bat that idea around. And John points out that the fact that a person is wired for survival is the biggest thing a person has to overcome. And he makes the analogy using higher forms of life coming to earth. If there was a higher life form that came to our planet and observed our planet, they would observed that human beings are wired for survival. And therefore they are fear-based and reactive.But in looking at modern society today, it looks like humans have a pretty cushy life. There's nothing threatening their survival on a daily basis. They all want to be successful and happy. But being fear-based and reactive is exactly the opposite of how they need to be in order to be productive and happy. These enlightened aliens would likely say -well let's just fix that and let's go into their DNA and reprogram them. We learned how to do that light years ago. The Takeaway from that story is that you can wait for enlightened beings to come to earth and reprogram you or you can take the responsibility for reprogramming yourself for success right now.John then goes on to make a key point. The methodology that he has created is an ACTUAL WAY OF DOING LIFE. NOT ANOTHER STRATEGY. But an actual way of doing life. It takes 12 minutes a day. And from what John can see in the success and human achievement field, nobody else is providing that. And from that way of doing life, which takes 12 minutes a day, you override being wired for survival. And you turn your subconscious mind from being your greatest nemesis into being your greatest asset. Giving yourself immense control over yourself.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

Welcome to the  Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast! In this episode, we'll dive deep into inspiring stories of triumph, expert insights, and practical strategies that empower you to defy the odds. At 62 years young, Rick Cheatham stands as a beacon of resilience and hope, having journeyed from the fiery halls of a Southern California firehouse to the empowering stage of transformational speaking and life coaching. As a retired firefighter, Rick learned the art of bravery, but it was life's greatest challenges that truly forged my spirit. Rick Cheatham has faced the depths of despair, including the heart-wrenching loss of his beloved son at just 23 and the battle against a devastating porn addiction that almost cost his marriage. Then, just five months after hanging up my gear for the last time, a fall shattered Rick's neck, leaving him paralyzed and confronting the daunting task of learning to walk again.  Yet, through these trials, Rick emerged stronger and more determined. Each struggle became a stepping-stone, teaching him invaluable lessons about faith, hope, and love. Rick discovered that the crucible of life is akin to the weights in the gym—each hardship a chance to build strength and character. Today, Rick dedicates his life to empowering people to reclaim their true selves and embrace their destinies. Together, we can transform pain into purpose, and trauma into triumph in all areas of life. Join Rick as he shares a journey in becoming the person we were always meant to be—because when we refuse to give up, we uncover the extraordinary power within us all. The power to A.I.M for the stars through Awareness, Intention, and Mindset.  Connect with Rick here: https://www.facebook.com/rickycafd https://www.instagram.com/rickycafd/ https://podmatch.com/guestdetailpreview/172608335657519221cb2e3af =================================== If you enjoyed this episode, remember to hit the like button and subscribe.

Ralph welcomes back Jack Dangermond, co-founder of Esri—Environmental Systems Research Institute, the leader in GIS mapping technology to open up his book, “The Power of Where: A Geographic Approach to the World's Greatest Challenges.” Then John R. McArthur, journalist, author and publisher of Harper's returns to discuss a recent study by neuroscientists that concluded that students absorb and retain information better on paper than they do on screens and what this means for the future of education and society as a whole.Jack Dangermond is President of Esri—Environmental Systems Research Institute—and is recognized as one of the most influential people in the field of geographic information system—GIS—technology. Jack, along with his wife Laura, founded Esri in 1969. He is the author of The Power of Where: A Geographic Approach to the World's Greatest Challenges.Geography is everything. It's what happens, when it happens, in some cases why it happens, but most importantly, where it happens.Jack DangermondI believe geography and maps—the language of geography—are a new kind of way to understand the complexity of our world. Our world is complex. All these relationships—the world is hard to fathom. And using these interactive mapping tools, people can learn a lot in a short amount of time. They can see context, as well as all the content that they're learning in their various disciplines.Jack DangermondYears ago, Jack called up and said—help us apply GIS to civic action, civic advocacy…We used GIS techniques, applied federal government data, and in a report we came out with in the 1990s—it was called “Racial Redlining: A Study Of Racial Discrimination By Banks And Mortgage Companies In The United States”—the map showed the worst-case lending pattern as prima facie evidence of unlawful discrimination against low-income areas in mortgage lending. And so, the applications for civic work still need a lot of attention. I don't think the potential has been reached anywhere near what it could be, especially as the field and the technology just explodes with innovation.Ralph NaderJohn R. MacArthur is the president of Harper's, a journalist, and the author of several books, including Second Front: Censorship and Propaganda in the 1991 Gulf WarCommon sense tells you just instinctively—well, if somebody's looking at a page in a book or in a newspaper, there's less distractions and there's more focus on what you're actually reading, whereas on a screen you have a tendency to get distracted and the lighting is not good and so on and so forth. But now the obvious has been proven. And I get the sense that they're almost ashamed. They just don't want to address it. Or they're in so deep with big tech.John R. MacArthurIn Case You Haven't Heard with Francesco DeSantisNews 9/11/241. Zeteo reports “Israeli forces allegedly shot and killed US citizen Ayşenur Eygi…at a demonstration in the West Bank village of Beita…The 26-year-old was there alongside other Americans who have been demonstrating against illegal settlement activity and providing a nonviolent protective presence for Palestinians…Ayşenur…was shot at the same weekly demonstration where American teacher and volunteer Amado Sison was shot last month.” This piece also notes that Eygi was in the West Bank with the International Solidarity Movement, the same group that American activist Rachel Corrie was affiliated with when she was murdered by an IDF bulldozer in 2003. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken decried this incident as “unprovoked and unjustified,” saying “No one…should be shot and killed for attending a protest. No one should have to put their life at risk just for expressing their views,” per CNN. According to Yahoo News, President Biden has not talked to Eygi's family, and neither he nor Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris have issued a statement on Eygi's death.2. Congressman Jamaal Bowman, who was recently primaried by an AIPAC-backed challenger after being outspent a by margin of seven-to-one (per CNN), has issued a statement in light of the revelations that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu sabotaged negotiations for a hostage and ceasefire deal in July. This statement reads “Netanyahu has continuously derailed negotiations and added new demands to stall for his own political benefit, with zero regard for the immense death toll and scale of human suffering…His goal is not to bring the hostages home or bring peace and safety to the region…Every life is precious and should be treated as such…My thoughts are with the families of the dead hostages, who have suffered an unimaginable loss, and with the people of Gaza, who are facing the horrors of genocide and being killed indiscriminately every day.”3. Variety reports a group of prominent Hollywood actors are leading a new initiative to pressure the Biden administration to end illegal arms transfers to Israel. This new push, growing out of the Artists4Ceasefire collective, is led by Mark Ruffalo, Cynthia Nixon, Mahershala Ali, and Ilana Glazer. Ruffalo writes “Our demand is simple — our elected leaders must enforce existing U.S. and international humanitarian laws that prohibit the use of military assistance to commit ‘grave human rights violations.'” Nixon adds “Words without action will not end the unbearable suffering…Enough is enough. The global call for a permanent ceasefire — supported domestically by an overwhelming majority of Americans — must be answered.” Despite overwhelming public support for peace, advocating for Palestinian rights has been a dangerous proposition in Hollywood since October 7th, with “A top movie agent, an Oscar winner, and the star of Scream VII [having] all been demoted or fired for calling out Israel's bombing of Gaza,” per Rolling Stone.4. In a chilling story from our Northern neighbor, the Ottawa Citizen reports “The Ukrainian Canadian Congress says it plans to go to court to stop the federal government from making public the names of alleged Nazi war criminals who fled to [Canada].” As this piece explains, “At issue are documents created by a 1986 federal government war-crimes commission…One of the documents is titled ‘Master List of alleged war criminals resident in Canada… [including] names of alleged war criminals as well as Nazi scientists and technicians” who fled to the country. The total number is around 900. These records have been requested under Canada's equivalent to the Freedom of Information Act. The government must now decide whether or not to disclose these names. According to this article, the Canadian government has consulted with leaders of Canada's Ukrainian community, but not with Holocaust survivors or scholars.5. In a major win for the Biden Treasury Department, the IRS announced last week that it has clawed back $1.3 billion from rich tax dodgers since last fall, per AP. Since 2023, the IRS has “launched a series of initiatives aimed at pursuing…taxpayers with more than $1 million in income and more than $250,000 in recognized tax debt.” According to officials, approximately 80% of the 1,600 tax delinquent millionaires have now made a payment.6. More positive news comes to us from the union front. The Orlando Weekly's McKenna Schueler reports “Florida's anti-union law, SB 256, has forced dozens of public sector unions to ask the state for recertification elections—and so far, they're all crushing it. Out of 26 elections with final results reported, workers in all but 1 have voted to keep their unions alive & intact.” Yet despite the unions' overwhelming victories in these re-certification elections, “more than 68,000 public employees in Florida have lost their union representation - NOT because they voted to get rid of their unions, but because their union had low membership and didn't petition for a recertification election.” 7. In more red-state union news, Washington Post Labor Reporter Lauren Kaori Gurley reports “Apple retail workers in Oklahoma City secured a tentative union contract, the 2nd store to do so at Apple.” This contract between Apple and the workers, represented by the Communications Workers of America, is said to include “pay increases of up to 11.5% over 3 years, severance & store closure protections [and] worker involvement in scheduling.”8. Yet not all is well on the union front. According to NJ.com a “civil war” is brewing between the United Autoworkers and the AFL-CIO at Atlantic City casinos over the UAW's demand to end indoor smoking. According to this piece, many of the dealers at these casinos, represented by the UAW, have contracted emphysema or even cancer despite not smoking themselves due to their constant exposure to secondhand smoke. Meanwhile the state AFL-CIO, led by Charlie Wowkanech, is standing with the casinos against a proposed ban. The UAW's Daniel Vicente is quoted saying “Dealing with Charlie was like dealing with some lame-ass mafia guy – it felt like a shakedown…We're planning to go to war with these other unions…We're coming straight at anyone who stands in the way of our people coming home safe.”9. Another story of betrayal comes from France. Al Jazeera reports “More than 100,000 left-wing demonstrators…have taken to the streets across France to protest President Emmanuel Macron's decision to appoint centre-right Michel Barnier as [Prime Minister], with left-wing parties accusing [Macron] of stealing legislative elections.” For the past two months, the French parliament has been hung due to legislative elections that left it divided into three blocs – the largest of which being the left-wing coalition. Yet despite a popular front alliance between Macron and the Left during the elections, Macron has now chosen to elevate a right-winger as PM in order to appease the far-right bloc led by Marine Le Pen. Al Jazeera notes that French pollster Elabe found that 74 percent of French people believed Macron had disregarded the results of the elections and 55 percent believe he has stolen them.10. Finally, the first debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris was held on Tuesday. Shortly before the debate, Harris finally released some concrete policy proposals on her website. These include vague pledges to reduce the cost of healthcare, increase the minimum wage, and protect the civil liberties of marginalized communities. Harris more clearly articulated her more conservative policies, including beefing up border security, increasing funding for law enforcement, challenging China on the world stage, and keeping weapons flowing to Israel. This suite of policies seems designed to correspond with her courtship of anti-Trump Republican voters, which has included touting the endorsement of Liz and Dick Cheney.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Modern science and ancient Vedic wisdom often take different routes to reach the same destination.Many of the concepts of Ayurveda, for example, have been known and understood for millennia, yet modern science is only just now catching up with some of these principles, and explaining them from the scientific point of view. Perhaps the most profound slice of Vedic wisdom, Vedanta, is another frontier that modern science, quantum physics specifically, has only recently crossed.There is only one thing. This has been the final conclusion of The Veda, Vedanta, for well over 5,000 years, and now quantum physics has come to the same conclusion.Thom explains Vedanta, and its correlation with quantum physics, in this episode, and shares the technique we can all use to not just understand Vedanta at a theoretical level, but to embody it at an experiential level.Episode Highlights:[00:45] Meaning of Vedanta[02:57] Physics and Vedanta[04:50] "You Are It"[06:56] You Are the Unified Field[09:02] The World Embodies Vedanta in Unity Consciousness[10:24] The Greatest Challenge of Unity Consciousness[12:06] Defining Empty Space[15:27] The Purpose of VedantaUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
