I am very excited to present to you faithful listeners of Necronomicast a wide ranging and fascinating conversation with Jonathan Kendall, MD! Jonathan Kendall is a board-certified medical doctor in internal medicine and nephrology. As a physician, he is in a relatively unique position to evaluate potential medical and psychological explanations for paranormal encounters. He is well-versed in ufology literature, physical research, quantum mechanics, and theoretical physics. The worlds of paranormal activity, metaphysics, religious studies, and science has always fascinated him. We are discussing his incredible new book "The Metaphysics of UFOs". The evidence he presents has implications that could lead to revolutionary breakthroughs in communications, energy use, medicine, interstellar travel, religion, and the nature of reality. This eye-opening book investigates the connection between UFOs and kindred phenomena like monsters, Men in Black, and poltergeists. It also explores the harrowing world of UFO abductions and why the aftereffects are so similar to those of both near-death experiences and encounters with mystical realms. These case studies shatter conventional views of reality and prove that far more is at stake than answering the question, "Are we alone in the universe?" Official Website of Jonathan Kendall, MD.

Ryan and Alex explore the Western esoteric tradition and the ancient ideas that have shaped humanity's search for hidden knowledge. They dive into alchemical elements, Atlantean wisdom, Hermeticism, and the Tibetan Book of the Dead, examining what these traditions reveal about death, reincarnation, and the nature of consciousness.
Welcome to the August 28, 2026, Opening Session of "The Way" series, featuring presenters David, Kirsten, Dineke, Lorena, Jason, and Helena. In this episode, the group explores the profound theme of the "Dawning of Holy Relationship" and the daily practice of dropping into the "Holy Instant". Drawing on principles from A Course in Miracles, the discussion highlights how true holy relationships shift our focus away from past judgments and ego-driven expectations, transforming our connections into a shared purpose of healing, trust, and spiritual union.The presenters share heartfelt personal stories of "undefined guided collaboration"—including the unfolding of a beautiful, spontaneous double wedding at the monastery—to illustrate how releasing personal control opens the mind to divine guidance. Accompanied by original community-created music and reflective movie clips, this session is a deep dive into experiencing a limitless, all-inclusive love that transcends traditional boundaries.These gatherings take place all summer until September 2026 and include comedy, teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister.Register for The Way for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIf you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events Recording Date: Online, Friday, August 28, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

Tim leads the community in a musical exploration of joy, arguing that after so many nights spent on hardship and catalyst, we have earned an evening of levity. Opening with the question are you happy? and a story about three sons who each try to buy their mother's happiness, he establishes that no gift cannot become a burden and no burden cannot become a gift. He then reframes joy itself: drawing on Doug's earlier teaching on the rhythm of being — emanation filled with yearning, return filled with longing, reunion filled with rejoicing — Tim proposes that the entire circulation of beingness occurs in the medium of joy, and that joy is being itself. What we seek when we seek joy is our own essence, sounded at our own unique frequency. The musical frame carries the evening. A single note on a staff stands for one incarnation; strung across lifetimes it becomes a melody. Played all at once it would be noise — which is why time is a gift, metering the score so it can be enjoyed in stages. Tim goes to Ra's counsel on revitalization (meditation, acceptance of limitations, joy through association with others and the beauty as of the singing, and contact with second-density life, especially trees) and then to Ra's musical language for chakra work: balance, tuning, and harmony. He develops each through musical analogy — the imbalanced orchestra, the guitar that must be tuned daily, the choir that sings in harmony rather than unison — and lands on Ra's description of the mind/body/spirit complex as a tone poem rather than a machine. The session's metaphysical core is sympathetic resonance: Ra's statement that the linkage between certain sound vibratory complexes and the creation is mathematical, or that of the ratio, and may be considered musical — and that when certain sounds are correctly vibrated, the creation sings. Tim examines 432 Hz and the 136.1 Hz frequency associated with Om, tracing the latter's derivation from the Earth's orbital period, and plays it on a Tibetan cymbal. He closes with transposition: keys can be changed, the Earth is changing key into fourth density, and we are here as co-composers to make the song our own. Rather than describe this, he performs it — singing his own rewritten lyrics to "One Song" from Snow White. Community reflections follow on the necessity of time for experience, sympathetic resonance as spiritual attraction, the harmonic series and the densities, tuning forks and daily practice, and perichoresis as the circle dance of the Creator. Key References Ra, Session 25.2 — Carla's question on how best to revitalize herself; Ra names meditation, acceptance of limitations, experiences of joy through association with others and with the beauty as of the singing, and exercise with contact with second-density life forces, especially trees. Ra, Session 54.8 — The precision of energy-center alignment lies in fluid and plastic placement rather than systematic arrangement; the mind/body/spirit complex is not a machine but what you might call a tone poem. Ra, Session 54.15 — Beyond activating each energy center, it is a priority to refine the balances so that each tone of the chord of total vibratory beingness resonates in clarity, tune, and harmony with each other energy; this balancing, tuning, and harmonizing is most central to the adept. Ra, Session 75.26 — The linkage between Hebrew and Sanskrit sound vibratory complexes and the creation is mathematical, or that of the ratio; it may be considered musical. Ra, Session 75.27 — Sympathetic resonance: when certain sounds are correctly vibrated, the creation sings. Q'uo — Joy as a living energy, as powerful and effective a teacher as sorrow. (Quoted by Tim from a Q'uo channeling; source session not verified against project files.) Ephesians 5:18–19 — Be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Isaiah — Songs of everlasting joy. John Stuart Mill — Ask yourself whether you are happy and you cease to be. Joseph Campbell — Follow your bliss. Alan Watts — Rushing toward enlightenment as telling the conductor to play the concert too fast. Hans Cousto — Derivation of 136.1 Hz (C-sharp) from the Earth's orbital period. Doug's teaching on the rhythm of being — Emanation, return, and reunion; the circulation of beingness occurring in the medium of joy. Doug's three faces of joy — Joy at the precipice of creation, joy in creating, joy in experiencing. Music discussed: "Over the Rainbow" (Harold Arlen), transposed from A-flat to G by Israel Kamakawiwoʻole; "One Song" from Snow White, performed by Tim with original rewritten lyrics. Coming Up Next Week: DeMarcus presents on Yahweh — who they are, their involvement with our planet from the beginning of third density, the Martian transfer, the Exodus and the Israelite narratives, and what continues today.

Bernardo Kastrup, PhD, is a computer scientist, who has recently completed a second doctoral degree in philosophy. He is author of Rationalist Spirituality, Why Materialism is Baloney, Dreamed Up Reality, Meaning in Absurdity, Brief Peeks Beyond, More Than Allegory, The Idea of the World, and Decoding Schopenhauer's Metaphysics. His latest book is Decoding Jung's Metaphysics: The Archetypal Semantics of an Experiential Universe. He has published several papers on Scientific American's website arguing for metaphysical idealism. His website is https://www.bernardokastrup.com/. In this interview, rebooted from 2021, he addresses a series of questions related to the possibilities for different versions of postmortem survival (i.e., reincarnation, possession, mediumistic communication, etc.) in the light of metaphysical idealism. He notes that, in all cases, he expects that the mental contents of personal consciousness will remain as part of an impersonal universal mind – i.e., the one mind that sees through the eyes of all creatures. With regard to the findings of psychical research and spiritualism, his attitude – while open-minded – was one of uncertainty and doubt concerning the quality of the purported evidence. New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death. He is Co-Director of Parapsychology Education at the California Institute for Human Science.

Ardy Sixkiller Clarke has done some original research that she relates in her book, Sky People; Untold Stories of Alien Encounters in Mesoamerica. We discuss some of these stories and her impressions of the way contact is viewed in the Maya culture.Dr. Ardy Sixkiller Clarke vowed as a teenager to follow in the footsteps of two 19th-century explorers, John L. Stephens and Frederick Catherwood, who brought the ancient Maya cities to the world's attention. Dr. Clarke set out on a seven-year adventure (from 2003 through 2010) through Belize, Honduras, Guatemala, and Mexico, collecting stories of encounters, sky gods, giants, little people, and aliens among the indigenous people. She drove more than 12,000 miles, visiting 89 archaeological sites (Stephens and Catherwood visited only 44) and conducting nearly 100 individual interviews.Dr. Ardy Sixkiller Clarke brings to the field of ufology degrees in history, English, psychology, and educational leadership and a background as a teacher, university professor, junior college and university administrator, licensed therapist and psychologist, and social science researcher. As a Professor Emeritus at Montana State University and former Director of the Center for Bilingual/Multicultural Education, Dr. Clarke, who is Cherokee/Choctaw, has worked with indigenous people for most of her career. Her first book in the field of ufology was the best-seller Encounters With Star People: Untold Stories of American Indians.

Welcome to the August 22, 2026, Movie Session from "The Way" series with David Hoffmeister, recorded live at the Living Miracles Monastery, Awakening Mind Center. This episode focuses on the metaphysical concept of timelessness and the importance of detaching from the linear constructs of time and space. Using scenes from Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager, the session illustrates how the physical world is merely a projection of the ego and the mind's internal beliefs. Listeners are guided through core principles from A Course in Miracles, emphasizing the need to release past judgments, move away from analytical thinking, and embrace the profound peace found only in the present moment. These gatherings take place all summer until September 2026 and include comedy, teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister.Register for The Way for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIf you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events Recording Date: Online, Saturday, August 22, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

This episode is a recording of the Movie Session from the Devotional Stay Weekend Retreat in Duchesne, Utah. Presenters David Hoffmeister, Jason Warwick, and Kirsten Buxton lead a spiritual discussion centered around an animated film to explore the nature of autonomy and true freedom. The session contrasts the ego's illusion of physical independence with the liberation of the mind, illustrating how rebellion and defense ultimately lead to struggle. By analyzing the main character's journey, the gathering highlights the profound awakening that occurs when one surrenders personal control, embraces holy relationships, and completely trusts in the guidance of the Spirit to find their way home.Stay connected with our Awakening Mind Community & events:https://www.instagram.com/awakeningmind1/https://awakening-mind.org/If you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsRecorded live at the Awakening Mind Retreat Center in Utah on the morning of August 21, 2026.

This was supposed to be Part 4 of the history of UFO's with Aaron and Mike Clelland, however, Mike fell asleep. So we talked to Aaron about his new book that was just released, The Paranormal and the Paranoid: Conspiratorial Science Fiction Television. We also went into Roswell, the slides, 911, and the new book on conspiracies that he is now working on. Very diverse and far ranging conversation. Hosted on Acast.

This short episode is very important to understanding a video clip of apologist William Lane Craig circulating on. social media in which he says he is unable to affirm or deny the Nicene Creed (325 A.D.) about the Son of God being begotten of the Father. His agnosticism on this subject drives home the importance of the metaphysical considerations that have passed from the evangelical mind. It also demonstrates what Kuyper said about apologetics and illuminates James 2:19.

Shima Moore is a metaphysical curator, educator and astrologer who co-founded the Los Angeles Conscious Life Expo and the underground magazine Perceptions — printing government, health and metaphysics material back in 1994 when almost nobody else would. Speaking with Neil Gaur of Portal To Ascension, she describes a spontaneous download she received in college that left her, she says, reading people's minds for two full weeks. She then lays out the celestial event that has every astrologer talking: Saturn and Neptune meeting at zero degrees Aries, the very first moment of spring, in a configuration she says has not happened in 6,000 years.

Live from the 2026 Psi Games, Ryan and his sister, Emily, sit down with American physicist, consciousness researcher, and author of the My Big TOE (Theory of Everything) trilogy, Tom Campbell, for a wide-ranging conversation about the nature of consciousness and reality. They explore the Larger Consciousness System, reality as a virtual simulation, the role of love and fear in our evolution, enlightenment, out-of-body experiences, UFOs/UAPs, and the potential of psi phenomena. They also dive into the Psi Games and what extraordinary experiences might reveal about the true nature of our reality.
In this Saturday Morning Movie Session for the August 15th episode of "The Way," David Hoffmeister explores the weekend's theme, "I can't go home without you: TIMELESS union". Using a well-known superhero film about mutants as a teaching tool, David discusses the true meaning of forgiveness and the illusion of linear time. He explains that attempting to alter the past or fix external circumstances is a faulty plan rooted in the ego. Instead, true healing requires going deep into the mind to release grievances, let go of judgment, and shift our purpose to the Holy Spirit. By accepting that the past is entirely gone and the future is merely imagined, we can return to the present moment and rest in perfect peace.Following David's profound teaching, the episode concludes with a Mystical Lounge, meditative music offering that invites listeners to sink inward and let these insights settle into a tranquil feeling of love.
