I highly recommend you watch lesson 66.  It is a Bible study video helping us clearly understand what the Tabernacle of the Lord looked like in the Exodus.  I was amazed at how the video of the text of Exodus 26 & 27 helped me understand the awesomeness of God's Mishkan HaKodesh, His Holy Dwelling tent (tabernace is tent in Latin).  I hope it will have the same result for you. LINK - https://lightofmenorah.podbean.com/e/exodus-66-exod-261-2721-buidler-guide-to-building-gods-mishkan-hakodesh/ In this lesson we will focus on commentary on Exodus 26 & 27 now that we understand what the Tabernacle looked like.  The Tabernacle of the Lord might have cost over $150,000,000 by today's measures.  That means the Egyptians probably gave over that to the Hebrew slaves.  The reason being later in Exodus we read … "Now Bezalel and Oholiab, and every skillful person in whom the LORD has put skill and understanding to know how to perform all the work in the construction of the sanctuary, shall perform in accordance with all that the LORD has commanded." Then Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every skillful person in whom the LORD had put skill, everyone whose heart stirred him, to come to the work to perform it. They received from Moses all the contributions which the sons of Israel had brought to perform the work in the construction of the sanctuary. And they still continued bringing to him freewill offerings every morning. And all the skillful men who were performing all the work of the sanctuary came, each from the work which he was performing, and they said to Moses, "The people are bringing much more than enough for the construction work which the LORD commanded us to perform." So Moses issued a command, and a proclamation was circulated throughout the camp, saying, "Let no man or woman any longer perform work for the contributions of the sanctuary." Thus the people were restrained from bringing any more. For the material they had was sufficient and more than enough for all the work, to perform it. (Exo 36:1-7) Below is an overview of the potential cost of the Tabernacle as specified in Exodus.  This was accessed using a Google A.I. search on 9/10/25. The Biblical Tabernacle's cost by today's value is estimated to be well over $150 million, with one estimate reaching $200 million, factoring in the vast quantities of precious metals like gold and silver, expensive materials, skilled labor, and the value of the land. The exact figure is impossible to determine precisely due to the archaic nature of some materials and the challenges of accurately valuing the labor and craftsmanship of the time. [1, 2, 3, 5] Key Factors in the Tabernacle's Estimated Cost Precious Metals: The Tabernacle contained enormous amounts of gold and silver. For example, 29 talents of gold is roughly 2,193 pounds. At current gold prices (around $2,000 per ounce or $32,000 per pound), this amount alone would be worth tens of millions of dollars. [3] Other Materials: The structure also required other expensive materials such as fine linens, acacia wood, and precious stones for the priest's robes. [2, 6] Skilled Labor: The construction demanded a large number of highly skilled craftsmen, and their labor would be a significant part of the cost. Valuing this workforce in modern terms adds substantially to the total. [1] Craftsmanship and Design: The intricate designs and the spiritual significance of the Tabernacle would add immeasurable value, even if it were possible to fully replicate its construction. [7, 8] Why an Exact Figure is Impossible Valuing Ancient Labor: It is difficult to accurately estimate the value of ancient skilled labor in today's economy. [1] Rarity of Materials: The specific qualities and sources of some materials, like the acacia wood, are challenging to account for in modern terms. [2] Historical Context: The sheer scale of the project and the unique spiritual and cultural context of the time make any direct cost comparison difficult. [9, 10] [1] https://www.reddit.com/r/Christianity/comments/1f4ls4a/got_curious_and_did_the_math_on_how_much_the/ [2] https://ifiwalkedwithjesus.com/exodus-3821-31-cost-of-construction/ [3] https://www.onenewmanbible.com/quantities-of-gold-silver-and-bronze-in-the-tabernacle/ [5] https://theisraelbible.com/tabernacle-accounting-a-precedent-for-honest-business-dealings/ [6] https://www.thetorah.com/article/the-tabernacle-a-concession-to-human-religious-needs [7] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_tabernacle [8] https://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/religion-and-philosophy/tabernacle [9] https://armstronginstitute.org/194-jerusalems-temples-the-archaeological-evidence [10] https://jerseycatholic.org/tabernacles-change-through-time-but-have-always-been-where-god-dwells-photos-2 Another amazing historical fact is the status of GOLD in ancient Egypt.  At the time of the Exodus, likely 1446 B.C., the main god of Egypt was Amun Ra, a double god of Amun and Ra.  Ra was the god who was considered the sun and the sun was associated with gold.  Here's an article accessed on 9/10/25 via Google A.I. Yes, ancient Egyptians believed gold was the "skin of the gods" and the "flesh of the gods," symbolizing the eternal and indestructible essence of the divine. This belief, particularly linking gold to the sun god Ra and the immortal qualities of the afterlife, led to its extensive use in decorating tombs, sarcophagi, statues, and royal regalia to ensure the pharaohs' divine transition and continued existence in the afterlife. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Significance of Gold in Ancient Egypt Divine Material: Gold was considered a divine and everlasting material with magical properties, a symbol of permanence and immortality. [2, 7] The Sun God Ra: Gold was closely associated with the sun god Ra, whose flesh was believed to be golden and brilliant like the sun itself. [2, 5] Royal Divinity: Pharaohs, considered divine beings, used gold to reflect their status and ensure a divine transition into the afterlife. [4, 5] Afterlife and Immortality: Gold was used in funerary objects, tombs, and mummy masks to provide a divine, indestructible body for the pharaoh in the afterlife, impervious to decay and demons. [3, 8] Symbolic and Ritualistic Use: Gold was not just a symbol of wealth but a sacred object used in rituals and to adorn sacred items, connecting the mortal world to the divine. [1, 3] Examples of its Use Tombs and Sarcophagi: Royal tombs and sarcophagi were lavishly decorated with gold to ensure the pharaoh's eternal reign. [2, 4] Funerary Masks: Mummies were sometimes given gold tongues to help them communicate with the gods in the afterlife, as seen in findings at the Quweisna necropolis. [7] Statues and Ornaments: Gold was used to adorn statues of gods and goddesses, as well as royal jewelry, to reflect their divine power and connection. [3, 6] Royal Titles: The title "The Golden Horus" was part of the pharaoh's royal titulary, reinforcing their divine connection.

Their creation is a meditative practice, and the designs are meant to aid in spiritual and psychological growth.    Purpose: By focusing on the design and moving toward its center, practitioners symbolically guide themselves through a process of transforming a universe of suffering into one of joy.    Impermanence: Tibetan sand mandalas are intentionally destroyed after weeks of meticulous work to symbolize the Buddhist teaching of the impermanence of all things.    Western interpretation: Psychologist Carl Jung introduced the concept to the West, interpreting mandalas as archetypal symbols representing the mind's quest for inner reconciliation and wholeness.Another attempt to reveal truth to people that really do not want itBy request, Here we go again...---The Mandela Effect Phenomenon is a great example of Those who know nothing insisting they have discovered more than the reality they already have no grasp on.You know all the product changes and movie lines but does anyone discussing the OTHER universe principle understand that concept?

Ochelli Effect 9-3-2025 Mandela Mandala Effect Affect Part 1Just like Cass Sunstein promised, Literate observers will see the intentional ironic engineering to occupy the easily amused with trivial pursuits rewarded with even less than a plastic wedgeMandala: A sacred, symbolic creationA mandala (from Sanskrit for "circle") is a geometric design representing the cosmos or deities in Hindu and Buddhist traditions.    Symbolic meaning: Mandalas symbolize the universe, wholeness, balance, and our relationship with infinity. Their creation is a meditative practice, and the designs are meant to aid in spiritual and psychological growth.    Purpose: By focusing on the design and moving toward its center, practitioners symbolically guide themselves through a process of transforming a universe of suffering into one of joy.    Impermanence: Tibetan sand mandalas are intentionally destroyed after weeks of meticulous work to symbolize the Buddhist teaching of the impermanence of all things.    Western interpretation: Psychologist Carl Jung introduced the concept to the West, interpreting mandalas as archetypal symbols representing the mind's quest for inner reconciliation and wholeness.Another attempt to reveal truth to people that really do not want itBy request, Here we go again...---The Mandela Effect Phenomenon is a great example of Those who know nothing insisting they have discovered more than the reality they already have no grasp on.You know all the product changes and movie lines but does anyone discussing the OTHER universe principle understand that concept?

“Who Thought the Eucharist Was Just Symbolic? ” This episode delves into the early Church’s beliefs about the Eucharist, exploring questions like the origins of the symbolic view and whether early Church Fathers spoke symbolically. We also tackle the significance of “breaking bread” in the early Church and the implications of transubstantiation. Join The CA Live Club Newsletter: Click Here Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 03:30 – Where did the symbolic view of the Eucharist come from? 05:13 – Didn't some early Church Fathers speak symbolically about the Eucharist? Doesn't that challenge the idea of unanimous early belief? 07:30 – Didn't the disciples fail to object during the Last Supper because they understood Jesus metaphorically? 09:00 – If “breaking bread” was common in the early Church, doesn't that just suggest a fellowship meal, not a literal body and blood? 15:25 – The Eucharist doesn’t seem to do anything to believers? 20:30 – How Do I Properly Receive the Eucharist? 21:50 – How does transubstantiation actually work—and why does it rely on medieval Aristotelian philosophy rather than Scripture? 29:05 – How do we know that the early Church actually believed in transubstantiation and not just a spiritual or symbolic presence? Why does the Catholic View win out? 35:22 – The priesthood is against going directly to God. We don't need Earthly priests. 42:20 – Does the Eucharist cause more division than Unity? 48:08 – Is the Eucharist just an adaptation of pagan rituals?

Trump's Second Term Purge

ChrisCast

Play Episode Listen Later Aug 15, 2025 21:36


Donald Trump's first term in office felt, to many, like a burst of cultural backlash—loud, brash, and ultimately blunted. He entered Washington in 2017 promising to “drain the swamp,” but underestimated how deep and tangled the roots ran. The permanent bureaucracy, the NGO network, and the sprawling infrastructure of media-linked soft power endured. By the time Joe Biden took office in 2021, the so-called “intercom” —the elite feedback loop of agencies, think tanks, activist nonprofits, and friendly press—was back in full control.But Trump's 2024 victory marked a sharp break. This time, he came in not as an insurgent learning the ropes but as a returning general with a kill list. The second term's agenda is unapologetically surgical: cut, cauterize, and rebuild. Where once he allowed careerists to stay on out of caution or optics, now he's purging aggressively. The Department of Justice, State Department, USAID, and even federally funded broadcasters like NPR and PBS are feeling the blowtorch.The method is both ideological and operational. Ideologically, Trump and his allies frame the federal bureaucracy as a hostile occupying force—what he has long branded the “deep state.” Operationally, they are stripping funding, closing offices, and firing tens of thousands of career civil servants. Reports cite over 275,000 federal civil service layoffs since January 2025, not including contractors. Whole agencies, particularly in the foreign aid and NGO sphere, are being gutted. USAID—long accused by critics of being an internationalist activist arm under the guise of development—has been defunded to the bone.In Trump's view, this is not mere budget discipline but necessary surgery to remove “cancer” before it metastasizes again. It's the same logic Elon Musk applied at Twitter—slash headcount under the guise of cost-cutting while gutting the internal political culture. For Trump, that means sweeping out anyone suspected of ideological hostility, no matter their seniority or tenure protections. His allies call it flushing out moles; his critics call it authoritarianism.Symbolic moments punctuate the purge. In Washington, D.C., Sean Dunn—a career DOJ trial lawyer—was filmed throwing a sandwich at federal agents while shouting “fascist.” For Trump supporters, it was proof of rot: a sworn officer of the executive branch openly defying the chain of command, embodying the very subversion they claim is endemic. Dunn was arrested on felony charges and promptly fired—a public scalp meant to signal that no one in the bureaucracy is untouchable.To the administration, the protests outside the White House are not grassroots uprisings but the death throes of the old guard—mostly white, highly educated NGO veterans, retired diplomats, and Beltway lifers. Trump's team insists they are dismantling not democracy but a parallel government that never stood for election.This is the paradox at the heart of Trump's second term. Governing is harder than protesting, and he knows it. But he's betting that a total institutional purge—painful, disruptive, and risky—will finally deliver what “drain the swamp” never could: a federal apparatus aligned with the president's vision, not working to undermine it.In his eyes, cutting out the rot now might save the patient later, even if the surgery leaves scars. Whether history calls it reform or wreckage will depend on who writes the next chapter.

We live in a world that trains us to focus on negativity. A world that wants us to contract, to judge, and expect the worst from ourselves (and others). That's why being self-critical is our default. We absorb the script early: that we're not good enough, not lovable enough, not deserving of ease or joy. Over time, that internal voice becomes automatic, so automatic that we don't even hear it anymore. Then your inner landscape shifts into wholeness, and you start to notice it more. How do we shift ourselves out of that default state of negativity? Sometimes, it's as simple as anchoring ourselves with something that reminds us that we are deserving of wonderful things. A beloved stuffed animal, a goofy rubber ducky, or a simple action that interrupts the spiral, these anchors remind us of what's still possible: connection, curiosity, happiness, and love. When we surround ourselves with reminders of our softness and our worth, we start to rewrite the default script. In this playful and profound episode, we delve into how small, meaningful objects and seemingly simple rituals can evoke powerful emotional shifts. From feeding a roadrunner named Angus to discovering the magic of face-flapping, we unpack the hidden brilliance behind anchoring practices that help us come home to ourselves.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -Your inner critic is running on autopilot Most of us default to self-judgment. How do we gently interrupt that loop using physical movement, play, and sensory cues? -A rubber duck can change your life Symbolic objects are a powerful way to remind ourselves of the magic of connection. How can a childhood toy or scented fabric anchor us to self-kindness and creativity when we feel stuck? -Noticing the drift How do we develop the subtle but powerful witness muscle that helps us recognize when we've left our center? What's the quickest way to come back?     About Your Hosts Katie Hendricks, Ph.D., BC-DMT, is a pioneer in body intelligence and conscious loving with over 40 years of experience.

Shut down is your nervous system's most protective response. If you've ever felt heavy, numb, and completely disconnected from life—like you're moving through a thick fog with no energy or motivation—you've likely experienced a nervous system state called "shutdown." This episode offers a deeply compassionate guide to understanding this protective state and provides a roadmap of gentle, micro-steps to help you slowly and safely reconnect with yourself and the world.*This episode serves as Part 4 in our "Different States Series"In this episode, you'll learn:Why shutdown happens, from chronic burnout and overwhelm to unresolved grief and past trauma.How to understand shutdown from a "parts work" perspective, seeing it as a protector trying to keep you from feeling more pain.A toolkit of gentle, sensory-based practices to slowly reawaken your system without causing more stress.Why patience is one of the most crucial tools when working with this state.3 Takeaways:Shutdown is protection, not pathology.Gentle presence is more powerful than forced productivity. In shutdown, your system needs safety and patience, not more pressure. Address the overwhelm, not just the symptoms. If shutdown is a pattern, it's often telling you something important about your life circumstances, past experiences, or internal dynamics.Tools/Resources for shut down:Gentle Sensation & Warmth: Hold a warm mug of tea or a heating pad, wrap yourself in a soft blanket, feel the texture of a piece of fabric, feel your feet on the floor.Gentle Breath & Sound: Make soft humming sounds or quiet "ahh" or "ohh" sounds that you can feel vibrating in your chest, listen to slow and comforting music or nature sounds.Orienting & Vision Resets: Slowly look around the room, gently turn your head from side to side, let your gaze soften and rest on something neutral or comforting.Micro-Movement: Wiggle your fingers and toes, gently roll your shoulders or circle your wrists, sway slowly while seated, stand near a window for a moment.Symbolic or Actual Connection: Text a safe person (no conversation needed), pet an animal or tend to a plant, look at a photo of someone you love, watch a familiar and comforting show.Voice & Self-Talk: Whisper comforting phrases to yourself like, "I'm right here," or "It's okay to rest," or "You matter to me."Parts Work: Get curious about the part of you that has gone offline. Offer it compassion and reassurance without pressure, saying things like, "Thank you for protecting me from pain.

In this deeply personal second part, Kaylee Nishizawa opens up about how her grief became a mission—and how the loss of her younger brother, Liam Nishizawa, led to the birth of something far bigger than she ever imagined. Video version of this eps: https://youtu.be/ohcPNAenLgwWhat began as a tribute… …became a movement to make sure Liam's name, light, and story would never be forgotten—and to ensure no one else would feel alone in their darkness. After Liam's passing by suicide at age 15, Kaylee—still recovering from a life-altering car accident and navigating her own mental health journey—began designing a tribute clothing line in his honour. But in a breathtaking twist of fate, she discovered that Liam had quietly been working on his own mental health brand in the final three weeks of his life, alongside his best friend Clarice.They had named it: LowKure. A symbol of pain and healing, “LowKure” represented the lows we all face—insecurities, struggles, mental health battles—and the journey to find light again. Liam had even swapped the “C” for a “K” because he thought it looked cooler. And unknowingly, these initials—LK—would later come to stand for something even deeper: Liam & Kaylee. The beautiful realization of the meaning behind “LK,” caught on camera during this episode, became a beacon of purpose for Kaylee—a moment of divine clarity that this was what she was meant to do. That this movement was already forming—and she was here to carry it forward. From that moment, she dove fully into building a greater mission in Liam's name—a vision she's been dedicated to over the last five months since this podcast was filmed. What began as a sister's tribute became a shared vision. A brand was reborn—infused with deeper purpose, legacy, and love. Today, LowKure by Liam has grown into LowKure for You—a nonprofit initiative dedicated to: • Suicide prevention and mental health support • Accessible mental health education and identity resources • Symbolic fashion that invites meaningful conversation • Community events and partnerships that create safe spaces for healing This episode captures the heart of the movement. Since then, Kaylee has expanded Liam's original drawings into symbolic logos—each one representing a different chapter of the human journey: grief, healing, courage, and growth. Through LowKure's free digital resource hub and upcoming community events launching across Canada, Kaylee continues to fulfill the promise she made at her brother's funeral: to keep Liam's light shining. Every piece in LowKure carries a message:“Your story matters. You are not alone. We see you.” Join the mission: www.lowkure.myshopify.com (http://www.lowkure.myshopify.com/) https://www.youtube.com/@LowKure https://www.instagram.com/lowkure_by_liam/?igsh=MXJvM3lyYWFlOHA3NQ%3D%3D#LowKure is looking for likeminded business and individuals to help move this mission forward. If you or your business would like to support our nonprofit through donations, sponsorships, community partnerships, or co-hosted events, please contact Kaylee through the Support Our Mission page.

This week, join Kate as she returns to form (2+ hour early BTI5-style rambling) by going through an old PowerPoint she found on her computer about Taylor Swift's evolution from diary-style songwriter to mythological storyteller through increasingly complex literary references. From "Love Story" fairytale princess to The Albatross and Cassandra the cursed prophet, how has Taylor deliberately written herself into literary archetypes as both artistic strategy and psychological self-defense? TLDR; a chaotic TS deep dive with a (hopefully) entertaining payoff about why our "crazy" fan behavior might actually be anthropologically normal.Topics covered:The difference between symbolic self-portraiture and literal autobiographyGreek gods vs. monotheistic religious figures (and why it matters for fandom behavior)Guillermo del Toro's quote about Taylor's "deep interest in fable and myth"Why "Mastermind" is more about childhood loneliness than strategic planning"The Albatross" and the Rime of the Ancient MarinerWhy treating artists like gods can be dehumanizing in the name of protectionFinding self-acceptance and/or collective empowerment at pop concertsA bathroom floor monologue about fairytales and personal authorityAnd so much more!Enjoy!TRACK FIVE CHICAGO is on Saturday, July 19.

In part two of our deep dive into chapters 17–21 of Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas, we explore the unraveling power dynamics between Celaena, Chaol, and Dorian as personal and political boundaries begin to blur. Through our dual literary lens approach and 13 years of combined academic training, we examine how metaphors, foreshadowing, symbolism, plot devices, and imagery reveal the growing cracks in each character's path. This week, we ask:"We see Chaol struggle with his honor and Celaena struggle with her destiny. Can the two of them even have a successful relationship when they are driven/haunted by different things?" Join us as we analyze: – The complicated dance between Celaena and Chaol, both literal and metaphorical – The foreshadowing hidden in Dorian's growing powers and Nehemia's cryptic knowledge – Symbolic imagery from Celaena's dreams and her solitary mourning – The weight of past trauma, shifting loyalty, and what “home” really means to a girl who has lost everything With a mix of academic rigor and emotional insight, we unpack the tension, heartbreak, and red flags that define this turning point in the novel, and the Massverse. Spoilers ahead for Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, and Heir of Fire. All other spoilers will be contained to the Breadcrumbs & Broomsticks section at the end of the episode.
