From sunny San Diego I'm Greg Carlwood and one of the biggest lessons we've learned is just how wrong the materialism paradigm is. The very paradigm that underscores what Western society deems to be valid science and what's to be discarded as silly fantasy yet in almost every slice of the pie-of-life We find that this stuff they've left to the cutting room floor is not only real but some of the most valuable parts
01:56 Consciousness is more than just an illusionary byproduct of the brain. Mental phenomenon, out-of-body experience and remote viewing have been demonstrated more than enough to be accepted. Psychedelics do more than just alter brain chemistry. Tesla had it more right then Edison on electricity. Ether physics explains flying machines modern science says are impossible yet people have been seeing for years Exotic energy sources that could change the world are waiting right outside the materialist box, and of course the right incantation can summon spirits. Well, it seems like most cultures around the globe and throughout history have acknowledged at least some of these things. But inside the arrogance of the Western bubble they act like there's nothing to it all. And of all the branches on the High Strangeness tree one of the most intriguing is a rare blend of art and science known as Alchemy and the strange material called Ormus
