Topic: Leonardo Da Vinci

A discussion on public awareness uses Leonardo da Vinci's classification of men into those who see, those who see when shown, and those who do not see. Cognitive dissonance prevents many individuals from accepting information that conflicts with their lifelong conditioning or causes psychological pain. This resistance is a primary hurdle in reaching the segment of the population that refuses to look at evidence regarding government illegitimacy.

The episode concludes with a summary of the second hour available to Plus members, which includes discussions on Leonardo da Vinci's potential abduction and the CIA's Focus 21 state. Carlwood promotes upcoming listener meetups in Washington, Montana, California, and Florida, as well as an international event in Australia. He thanks the audience for their support and encourages them to use the show notes to find Dan Zusoko's links and the Higher Side meetups calendar.

Jason Quitt discusses his book, Astral Genesis, which details a hidden geometric language encoded in ancient artwork and architecture worldwide. He identifies a consistent "fingerprint" of star knowledge and solar angles found in sites ranging from Gobekli Tepe to Peru and Canada. This suggests a unified, global civilization existed prior to 12,000 years ago that possessed advanced understanding of celestial cycles and mathematics.

Jason Quitt explains how ancient doorways and windows functioned as sundials, with light only passing through on specific days like the equinox or solstice. In Egyptian temples, this was viewed as the sun "impregnating the womb" of the earth to regenerate life. He also describes "false doors" in Egyptian tombs, which were believed to allow the "Ka" or spirit of the deceased to travel between worlds on designated celestial dates.

The final segment previews the second hour of the show, covering topics such as the impossible thinness of Da Vinci's paintings, ayahuasca experiences, and the properties of granite. Greg Carlwood encourages listeners to approach 2020 with less aggression and more open-mindedness regarding historical certainty. He signs off the year by urging listeners to follow the trail of evidence wherever it leads.

Mark Booth explains that the Mona Lisa was created as a magical space for the goddess Isis to inhabit, functioning similarly to a channeling device or Ouija board. He suggests that great works of art are designed to allow viewers to commune with higher spirits. This perspective views high art not just as aesthetic, but as a functional tool for spiritual interaction.

The guests discuss the historical suppression of the Golden Ratio by the Church and the modern education system. They argue that the U.S. public school system was modeled after the 19th-century Prussian military model to produce obedient workers rather than holistic thinkers. They suggest that teaching linear mathematics instead of integrative geometry "dumbs down" children to make them better soldiers and factory workers.

Dr. Friedman introduces the concept of biomimicry, which involves copying nature's successful evolutionary patterns to improve human health. He references Leonardo da Vinci’s "Vitruvian Man" as the epitome of a Golden Ratio human being, possessing approximately 62% body water. The guests argue that by maintaining these ratios, individuals can effectively slow or reverse aspects of the aging process.

Leonardo da Vinci's historical interest in flight is examined through his designs for artificial wings and his remarkably accurate aerial landscape paintings. The precision of these paintings, which resemble modern satellite imagery, suggests the possibility that Da Vinci may have successfully achieved flight in secret. While history assumes he never went airborne, his visionary work remains a point of mystery for researchers.

The life of Jesus is mapped to the Sun's progression through the zodiac, identifying him as the Lamb in Aries and the Lion in Leo. Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper" is analyzed as an astronomical cipher, with the twelve disciples grouped to represent specific zodiac signs and their corresponding body parts. The painting is described as a message of perennial philosophy left for a future enlightened age.

Numbers represent frequencies and archetypes that bridge the gap between the microcosm of the individual and the macrocosm of the universe. Tesarion discusses the importance of aesthetic appreciation, which Nietzsche placed at the center of his philosophy. Great minds like Leonardo da Vinci were artists before they were scientists, recognizing the mathematical and beautiful order of the natural world.
