It's interesting that the most recent full moon was the most northerly Luna (Soma, Chandra) ever gets and that at this time it seems to pause in the sky, beckoning us to pause and reflect. Winter is like that, a time for rest and wise reflection. The light is reborn and continues to increase throughout the year. Urth (Bhumi, Tierra, Earth) has rhythms that though the Church has tried to obscure them are still there to notice and sync up with. The Moon is a clock and a calendar, the Sun a guide. There is rhythm to the seasons and an orderliness to Nature. If we ever pause to notice, we may see that things are okay. We have been made to worry by thinking and fretting, projecting into the future, but when we reflect on the now, everything is instantly okay. This is the meaning of mindfulness, to bring ourselves fully into the present. Things unfold. They work themselves out. We have our duties. And why would we be anywhere when we can be here now?

The Irish Winter Solstice: A Journey through Time and Spirituality
(𝕴𝖗𝖎𝖘𝖍 𝕻𝖆𝖌𝖆𝖓 𝕮𝖔𝖗𝕶) Premiered Dec. 7, 2024: BLARNEY ROAD The Winter Solstice, marking the shortest day and longest night of the year, has held profound significance for the people of Ireland for millennia. This pivotal moment in the solar calendar was a time of great anticipation and reverence for early societies who lived in harmony with the natural world. In Ireland, this relationship with the solstice is perhaps most vividly preserved in the ancient monuments built to honor it, such as Newgrange in the Boyne Valley. These structures, with their precise alignments to the sun, reveal the extraordinary astronomical knowledge and spiritual depth of Ireland’s early inhabitants. For these ancient communities, the solstice symbolized the cyclical nature of life, marking the transition from darkness to light and the promise of renewal in the year ahead. Over time, this observance evolved, with Bronze Age and Iron Age societies incorporating the event into their spiritual and agricultural practices, while stone circles like Drombeg in County Cork and Dromnagorteen at the Cork/Kerry border continued to highlight the connection between humanity and the cosmos. The Winter Solstice is not just an ancient relic of the past; it is a living tradition that has woven itself into the fabric of Irish culture, spirituality, and identity, remaining an awe-inspiring moment of cosmic alignment and human reflection.

The Buddha and other ancient yogis and seers (rishis) in proto-India could see the devas ("shining ones"). It was a common practice in ancient proto-India. There are ways to maneuver through space (and apparently also time) using the mind. Mantras, for example, are not words but "thought instruments" to help accomplish this. Move through portals, travel anywhere in any direction. It all sounds like spiritual fiction. But these things are found in sacred texts, where no one pays attention until science rediscovers these facts. There are documented cases of ancient time travel, and no one cares because until it accords with our modern religion (Scientism), no one believes it.
Russian astrophysicists found, tested, and published a way for ordinary people to remotely view the solar system and universe, even gazing through time, directly and consciously. US scientists do not speak of Russia's success, but the CIA was paying attention. The Agency has released documents confirming the Russian scientists' work but has kept the final proof secret in spite of many FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests. One need not wait for the university gatekeepers to believe or speak publicly of what they know.
It is possible to confirm that there is ether, that time is flexible, and that things are not as we have been taught by Western science. (Some Western scientists know it, which is probably why they removed ether from equations and have left out important details about gravity, dark matter, the quantum foam, black holes, and shocking anomalies. These topics have been made verboten Time moves in both directions, and there is retro-causality. Why? Karma (the power of intentional actions to produce results) is a strange force and has an incomprehensible way of working itself out. All time is simultaneous and NOW. So just as all deeds are only possible now, perhaps all results simultaneously co-arise with them.
Bending time: the successful time travel experiments using Kozyrev Mirrors
What were the Buddha, arhats, and seers (those adepts at some or all of the jhanas) seeing?
.
(The Why Files) In December 1990, in a remote village above the Arctic Circle, two Russian scientists embarked on a daring experiment.
Their goal was to enhance human “super-perception” or ESP (PSI).
They built a device that could shield subjects from electromagnetic interference and amplify their biological energy. [Rudolf Steiner's "Orgon" energy?]
The device was a large tube of rolled aluminum with a chair inside.
As soon as the device was built, strange phenomena occurred around the village:
Disc-shaped lights hovered around the lab.
Balls of energy appeared and disappeared.
The Northern Lights (Aurora borealis) became so bright and vivid that they seemed to take physical shape.
Inside the lab, anyone who approached the device felt an unexplainable sense of dread. It took a while to persuade anyone to try it.
When the first subject finally sat in the chair, a flash of energy erupted that stunned everyone in the lab.
The device worked!
But it may have worked a little too well.
Not only did it boost people’s psychic abilities, it also enabled them to view any place in the world. And soon, they could view any place in time.
In fact, these experiments confirmed a theory first proposed in the 1950s. That time, as we know it, doesn’t exist.

Who brought in the Montauk monster?
Do all flying ships (vimanas, saucers, disks, orbs, pods) not work by sitting in a chair in the center where the controls are manipulated?
Isn't the main problem with maneuvering downed and reverse-engineered spacecraft getting a pilot to learn to steer the controls?
According to Russian psychic living in America Stewart Swerdlow, the great tsunami of Aceh, Indonesia, that killed so many in Asia was the direct result of trying to power up just such a "chair" and use it for time and space travel experiments, a chair taken from a vimana.

What must it be like to enter one of the sensual (kama-loka) heavens (sagga)?
In the European conception, there must be castrati devas known as gandharvas (gandhabbas) acting as musician entertainers for the other devas, playing lutes, dulcimers, and lyres, sipping ambrosia (amrita). Classical composer Prokofiev knew something about creating an ambiance of peace and solemnity.
But devas or "shining ones" are a Vedic, Buddhist, and Jain conception, being the Dharmic religions. These temple Brahmin and wandering ascetic shraman traditions began in proto-India. Examples of the heady and heartfelt sacred music of India exist today. There's The Festival of Tabla™.
Is there an eternal heaven or hell in Hinduism?
(HinduAcademy) June 18, 2019. Do the Dharmic religions believe one spends an eternity in bliss or pain unimaginable for the karma created here in this life? Visit hindu-academy.com for more info. Whatsapp Broadcast Group: +447717884792 or jo.my/hinduacademy. #hinduismexplained
Today the largest festival of Indian classical music and musicians on the west coast (Eternal Dharma Temple, Los Angeles) is rapidly becoming a globally recognized landmark for percussive arts as well as the classical traditions of South Asia.
The Festival’s focus is to provide an unbiased platform for a new and diverse generation of artists, giving them a chance to present authentic tabla (Indian bongo) as well as instrumental, vocal, and dance solos in front of larger and more receptive audiences.
At the Sanatan Dharma Hindu Temple, newcomers are able to perform on the same stage as maestros. Such an opportunity is integral and essential to uplift new artists and create a healthy and vibrant South Asian music and arts community.
The two-day festival is filled with exceptional artists from the U.S. and around the world. Come experience this unique festival.
The Festival of Tabla™ (FOT) is brought by the Ravi & Shashi Bellare Arts Foundation, a 501(c)(3) Charitable non-profit organization (EIN: 33-0550765), located in Chino Hills, California. (ravishashiarts.org). More:
Gaia TV beat science and the mainstream media to reveal the reality of space aliens.
100% aliens have already arrived, says Dr. Garry Nolan, MD | SALT iConnections
Dr. Greer tells all in Sirius with an ET body
(New York
SALT) May 22, 2023. Space aliens (which Buddhism calls akasha devas, asuras, nagas, brahmas, yakkhas) arrived a long time ago...and they're still here.
Dr. Garry Nolan is a professor at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He joined Alex Klokus to discuss his extensive research on the history of UFOs and signs of extraterrestrial life on earth.
Dr. Nolan lays out the overwhelming evidence that aliens (ETs) have been here for a long time, what technology is likely being used, the U.S. government's role in facilitating information and how we can use alien technology to expand the reaches of human consciousness.

Dr. Steven Greer, MD
[(WQ COMMENTARY) Dr. Steven Greer, MD (Disclosure Project), already proved that aliens are on earth, visit all of the time and have for centuries and millennia, and they interact with world governments from time immemorial, as in ancient India, China, and Europe.
Dr. Greer's Disclosure Project brought former military and government officials to break their enforced silence on videotape every year in Washington DC, explaining what they knew and when. There are reverse-engineering programs, the downing of alien spacecraft (vimanas), drone flying saucers operated by Greys (or artificial organic lifeforms controlled by "tall whites" known as Nordic aliens.
Dr. Greer thinks these aliens are all good and advanced, much wiser than us and worried about our future as we gain hardware and make advancements on our own or with technology handed to us or stolen by us with the help of entities here explaining how to defeat other entities in our skies. It's a lot like Men in Black tries to explain in a limited hangout of information via Hollywood.Corey Goode(GAIA) speaks of U.S. military involvement off the planet already as we continue our imperial adventures in space.
The CIA knows much more than the official Pentagon in terms of our secret wars. Reptilians and Draconians have been operating behind the scenes, manipulating humanity for a long time, as David Wilcock (aka the reborn Edgar Cayce of divinecosmos.com) has been trying to tell the world for a long, long time.]

Handy map of our sky/akasha-loka/space.
What to call it, Planet Parade? Planet Party? Planet-Palooza? Whatever, there will be a lovely lineup of the visible planets across the early morning sky in June.
Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are the stars of the show, but we might get lucky and spot Mercury, too.
The first prime viewing opportunity comes early on the mornings of June 3rd and 4th.
"All five naked-eye planets will line up in the dawn sky in June. Not only that, they'll also be in their proper order from the sun," Sky & Telescope said in a statement Tuesday.
Venus through Saturn should be easy to see if the sky is clear. Mercury is the wild card. Sky & Telescope recommends using binoculars and finding a place with a clear view low toward the east. Just be sure to get out there at least 30 minutes before the sun rises.
Check with timeanddate.com to find local sunrise times.
The planet-fest will continue on through the month. A NASA graphic from the agency's What's Up Skygazing Guide shows what to look for in mid-June at around 45 minutes before sunrise. More
(The Hannibal TV) Preston Dennett has been investigating UFOs since 1985, interviewing hundreds of witnesses as a field investigator for MUFON (the Mutual UFO Network).
He is a paranormal researcher and an award-winning author of 23 books. He has appeared on many radio and TV programs, including Coast to Coast and the History Channel's Deep Sea UFOs (USOs) and UFO Hunters. His research has appeared in the Los Angeles Times, the LA Daily News, the Dallas Morning News, and other newspapers.
Lead reporter Devon "Hannibal" Nicholson discusses UFOs with Preston Dennett about the US Navy beginning to declassify videos and documents related to Unidentified Arial Threats, as it refers to UFO phenomena in US air space. Space visitors are demonstrating technologies the military can't explain while saying they don't know who or what is operating them or what their intentions are, which is a concern (but the U.S. military is aligned with many harmful alien species promoting war, aggression, and repelling perceived threats). Dennett also talks about Unidentified Submerged Objects (USOs), extraterrestrial races, human abductions, cattle mutilations, the best evidence for ETs, and much more. Find Preston Dennett's books on amazon.ca.

This week Venus – the brightest planet and dazzling “evening star” – passes the Pleiades star cluster [possibly our original home], also known as the “Seven Sisters.” Look west after sunset. Venus and the Pleiades meet every eight years [as the skies move over earth, giving the illusion that the earth is spinning, which is illusory according to Eric Dubay and others' systematic observations].

Does body language prove Bob Lazar actually did see ETs and work on alien spacecraft at Area 51?
Did Bob Lazar work on recovered alien spacecraft at Area 51 for the U.S. government? Let’s analyze his body language to find out.
Lazar claims to have been a scientist employed by the U.S. government. He worked on reverse engineering alien spacecraft at Area 51 (S4) for his employer in the late 1980s.
For this video it’s important for viewers to know that I have no biases going into this. I’ve never seen a UFO or space aliens. Like many, I believe we’re likely not alone in the universe. Prior to this analysis, I hadn’t heard of Bob Lazar.
When I did I thought he had to be at least a little deceitful because his story is so extraordinary.
What’s interesting is that over the past few years, the U.S. government has become more open to admitting the existence of UFOs. It is interesting that our government is no longer completely ignoring these claims.
Now when something odd is seen, it is more likely that it will be recorded. Cameras are everywhere. Once recorded, the internet can spread video across the world triggering government trolling and dismissals.
What’s interesting is that someone is lying. Either our government is hiding and covering up something, or it’s whistleblowers like Bob Lazar.
So we’re going to put on our neutrality hats and analyze Lazar’s body language, piece together his story, and review the evidence to find out if he is truthful.
In the fine-material world (see Deva II) the faculties of seeing and hearing, which together with the other sense faculties, are temporarily suspended in the four meditative absorptions (jhanas, zens).
In the immaterial world (see Deva III) there is no corporeality/materiality whatsoever. There are only the four mental aggregates (see "The Five Aggregates clung to as Self" called the khandha) existing there.
Although the term loka is not applied in the sutras to these three spheres, but rather only the term bhava ("existence," e.g., MN 43), there is no doubt that the teaching about the three spheres belongs to the earliest (i.e., the sutra period) Buddhist texts, as many relevant passages show.
A "close encounter of the fifth kind" is human-initiated contact, as with the Phoenix Lights.
Stephen Colbert works for the system as a talk show host for the Late Show, so he has to make fun of taboo topics. When he comes around to the truth, he'll change his tune and be funny about it, too.
ETs are real, UFOs are real, and ET is good
Emergency room medical doctor and professional whistleblower Dr. Steven Greer, M.D. (ce5film.com) goes on mainstream Los Angeles rock station (KLOS 95.5 FM) to disclose the presence of friendly space extraterrestrials (ETs) and alternative-power vehicles ("UFOs") that utilize zero point energy from the environment, that is, the electromagnetic fabric of our reality. Dr. Greer holds annual disclosures that the mainstream media regularly ignores. They are held at the Washington, DC Press Club and have featured hundreds of retired officials and officers disclosing beyond "top secret" information in violation of their non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) due to their age because what they have been hiding is too big to keep from humanity forever (disclosureproject.org). The government is not doing an official disclosure, as has been promised by would-be-president Hillary Clinton, when Bill Clinton and B.S. Obama declined to step outside of their lanes. So Dr. Greer and citizens groups are disclosing. Come to Joshua Tree with Dr. Greer and others to SEE FOR YOURSELF with your own eyes, and bring a camera to prove it to everyone who will doubt and ridicule you. Watch Unacknowledged, Sirius, and coming soonClose Encounters of the Fifth Kind.
