(Gnostic Talk) Daniel explains what happened to him when he dared to defy the God (Yaldabaoth the Demiurge) and his administrators and architects call the Archons.
The shocking truth about the Buddha they never told us
(Silent Flame) For centuries, we’ve been bowing, chanting, and meditating…. But did we ever stop to ask, Who was the Buddha — really? Was he a man who simply awakened? A divine being who walked among mortals? Or something far beyond both ideas?
This deeper dive is a controversial video as Silent Flame takes us on a journey through ancient Buddhist texts, modern science, cosmic metaphysics, and brutal honesty — to finally answer the question no monastic dares ask out loud, 🔥 Was the Buddha a God…or just a man?
✅ DISCOVER:
Why early texts portray him as a human — and why that matters
The hidden [Mahayana] doctrine of the Three Bodies of the Buddha
The shocking Mahayana view that Buddha never passed away into final nirvana (what the world mistakenly calls dying, even though dying always entails rebirth so this could not be a common death the unenlightened experience)
What neuroscience, quantum physics, and psychedelics reveal today
How we should relate to the Buddha in real life — worship or walk?
If one has ever meditated, bowed before a statue, or just wondered what “enlightenment” really means… 🧘♂️ this is the video that connects the dots — and burns away illusions.
Was the Buddha a [Creator] God? Divine? A miracle-worker? Great gurus say, "No one saves us but ourselves; no one can, and no one may; we ourselves must walk the Path; buddhas only point the way."
We as earthling humans have been depending on gods and God for too long, waiting for them to return and rule, with we peons and pawns to their larger designs, such as the Anunnaki, the Greek, Roman, and Indian pantheons.

Ratak Puntso may seem like any other 2-year-old, but he has always been destined for an exceptional life. Recognized as the prodigious reincarnation (tulku) of the grand master Kalu Rinpoche, Ratak is already inducted as a grand Lama of Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism. He will spend his childhood without much contact with peers of his age. Instead, he will be surrounded by monks (lamas), tutors, and servants who all take part in passing down Buddhist Teachings as well as protecting the “precious” child. Documentary: The Lama Child. Directed by Jeanne Mascolo and Bruno Vienne. Producers: Mona Lisa Production.
TULKU (official trailer)
(Chewyguru) Tulku? "Divine birth, ordinary life."
This is the official trailer for Tulku, a documentary film directed by Gesar Mukpo.
Tulku is a documentary film written and directed by Gesar Mukpo. It details the personal experiences of five young Western men who were identified in childhood as being tulkus, or "reincarnated Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhist masters."
[Jesus Christ, known as St. Issa in Tibetan Buddhism, may have also been a tulku reborn far to the west of Ladakh and Kashmir, where he returned as a youth to study at Hemis Gompa and remember his divine mission of attempting to save others as a Maitreya or Messiah.]
For over 700 years, tulkus have been sought out as highly revered leaders and teachers of Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism.
Beginning in the 1970s, several tulkus have been identified as having incarnated in the West. These new, Western-born, very modern tulkus lead lives prone to East-West culture clash and identity confusion.
Background
Gesar Mukpo, who wrote and directed Tulku, was born in 1973, the son of world-renowned Tibetan Buddhist master [scandal ridden sex guru] Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and his [underage] British wife Diana.
At the age of 3, Mukpo was identified by Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche as the reincarnation of the late Shechen Kongtrul Rinpoche (the Jamgon Kongtrul of Shechen), one of his own father's teachers in Tibet [2, 3].
Three-year-old Gesar Mukpo was then "enthroned" as a tulku in radical Sixties town Berkeley, California, across the Bay from San Francisco. More
(victress108) Produced by Chariot Videos (chariotvideos.com). Blessings tells the story of 3,000 nuns who live in the remote nomadic region of Nangchen in Eastern Tibet. They practice an ancient yogic tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. Despite near extinction during the destruction of the Cultural Revolution, these remarkable practitioners have emerged to rebuild their monasteries by hand...stone by stone. Now, their wisdom tradition is once again vital and growing. In 2005, Tsoknyi Rinpoche III led a small group of western students to meet these amazing women. Narrated by Richard Gere, with music by Ani Choying Drolma and Steve Tibbetts, Blessings is the story of this extraordinary journey.
There are too many names to thank here, but suffice it to say that this film would never have happened without the belief, trust, patience, and extra hours of so many contributors. Thanks, everyone!
The REAL reason GOD is TRAPPING souls on Earth | BANNED by the Church | On the Origin of the World
(God's Whisper) The concept of the stolen soul (spirit being, subtle body, mind) is one of the most thought-provoking and haunting ideas in spiritual philosophy, particularly the teachings of Gnostic Christians.
This video explores ancient Gnostic teachings that suggest our souls (selves, egos, amalgams explained in Buddhism as the Five Aggregatesclung to as self) were ensnared by the Demiurge, a false god who created the material world to keep us trapped in ignorance.
Through texts like On the Origin of the World, we learn that humanity’s fall into this world severed our connection to our true divine/deva-realm(see Aggañña Sutta) origin, chaining us to a cycle of endless rebirths, suffering, distractions, and desires.
The material world we see around us, our bodies, our ambitions, and even our societies all work to keep us ignorant of our true spiritual purpose.
"Soul"? The subtle body pattern of the gross body
I swear to the Demiurge I will F S up: Bible
According to Gnosticism, these external forces are orchestrated by the Archons ("Rulers" Archangels), powerful enforcers of the Demiurge's rule.
The path to freedom lies in Gnosis, an inner awakening that helps us rediscover our divine spark and break free from the illusion.
This video is a guide through the Gnostic view of reality, offering insight into how to reclaim spiritual autonomy and embrace the truth hidden within us.

How can we save the world, Sid? - Teach, Jess.
It is the goal of Buddhism -- to the extent that we set any goal but basic goodness or being true to our enlightened nature for its own sake -- is to experience the Buddha's awakening. The enlightenment of disciples is exactly like that of the Awakened One. The difference is all the Bodhisatta (Buddha-to-be) did in past lives to become a teacher able to realize and communicate the Dharma (the Truth) to the world and establish it so that it keeps liberating others even after his own liberation. In just the same way, one might speak of an "original Christianity" where being Christed (dying to oneself and being born again) is the goal, as Dr. DC Ammon Hillman speaks of in the use of "mysteries" as mystery cults had been doing for millennia. No one intended to found a "religion" but only to point out the path-of-practice for advancing to the heavens or making an end of all rebirth and suffering here and now.
Jews and Judaism rejects the belief that Jesus [actual name "Yeshua ben Yusuf of Nazareth"] was the long awaited Messiah [Buddhism's Maitreya, or a political rebel arrived to overthrow imperial Roman rule, according to Dr. Reza Aslan], arguing that Jesus did not fulfill messianic prophecies, was not lawfully anointed [though "anointed" actually comes from the Greek kristos, which is a means of ingesting a psychedelic/entheogenic drug by pressing and holding an anointed cloth against the open skin to take things ("dotes") like snake venom or entheogenic compounds in the cult pharmacopeia through the skin followed by an antidote, as Dr. Hillman goes to great pains to explain] and was neither divine nor resurrected [but rather realized all humans have divine potential and had the audacity to tell them that, because in that sense we are all GOD, and his followers bribed Roman soldiers to cut him down during his crucifixion long before anyone dies from this special form of Roman humiliation and torture reserved for political crimes (trying to foment an insurrection against Roman rule, explains Dr. Aslan). Jesus the Christ would then mean "Yeshua the Anointed One."]

(JeffMara Podcast) Oct. 21, 2022. Podcast Guest 618 is Hans Wilhelm, discussing karma (our store of deeds of body, speech, and mind) and its effects and why it is necessary to resolve it in this Earth School to stop incarnating.
ABOUT: Hans Wilhelm is a German mystic, author, and illustrator of over 200 books for all ages – including some together with Byron Katie (a kind of female Eckhart Tolle), author of The Work.
His books have sold over 40 million copies and are translated into 30 languages. He has recently created over 130 short YouTube videos in which he visually explains the spiritual laws of the universe.
In these videos viewers can watch him drawing the dynamics of these laws and see how all the dots connect. This unique visual presentation has made his videos successful, so much so that they have been watched by over 17 million viewers.

Throughout the ancient stories of humanity, plants and fungi have been used as a source to contact the divine by shaman [wandering ascetic] and priest [Brahmin] alike.
These experiences are often potent enough to form [and fuel] mystics, prophets, spiritual gurus, and even gods [devas].
Psychotropic substances in the modern era have been virtually demonized and condemned by most members of society or labeled as "recreational" by others -- leaving any claims to a spiritual connection castrated at the [beginning] thesis statement.
Scholars fear tackling this subject by reality of being ostracized from peers and/or banished by the church if not outright imprisoned by the state.
Christian holidays such as Christmas and Easter and church sacraments like Holy Communion and marriage all appear to have their roots in the experience that "Christ" is centered upon -- sacred psilocybin mushrooms [which are entheogens that reveal the divine within and psychedelics that are "mind making" substances].
This author [Rev. Nicklas Failla] takes a deeper look into the myths, artwork, and stories that surround religions and breaks down how each individual can come into direct communication with “the Divine” by instituting the true holy blessed sacrament.
SPECIAL EDITION
The motif of the sacred scarab (dung beetle) symbol is a distinctly predominating theme in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and amulets. The ancient Egyptians even depicted the dung beetle as a religious deity known as “Khepri.”
Its prevalence as sacred imagery has been ill explained by past archaeologists and Egyptologists. Many historical explanations of the divinity attributed to this beetle have been based upon assumptions that the dynasties of ancient Egypt had “misunderstood” the biology of beetle, and that it was this “misunderstanding” which led the Egyptians to keep the beetle in such high esteem.
Secondary research, which was triggered by newly discovered evidence obtained and presented by scholars on the newly discovered genus of psilocybin mushrooms, offers possible explanations to more probable motives behind ancient Egyptian’s use of the sacred scarab symbol.

Did he have another conversation with God? We have our own inner-divinity. There’s something extraordinary going on here on this planet. But in our busy day-to-day we tend to forget. We overlook that magnificence sometimes. This is a message for humanity from Neal Donald Walsch that may help us rediscover the beauty within us, remind us of who we really are.
We all experience days when we fail to see the beauty within ourselves or the world around us, days we need a little push. A voice tells us how wonderful it is that we’re part of thismagical piece of art called thislife. Today, that voice is close.
It’s a message from Neale Donald Walsch, author of the New York Times best-seller Conversations With God [written by "automatic writing" when he asked his God stuff and was surprised to channel answers], about the divinity that exists in all of us, which Walsch says is waiting to manifest in our greatest creations.

Cara St. Louis breaks new research on the Fae, Phe, Fe, or Fey (devas in Buddhism) for the first time to American audiences on the Freedom of Joyce Show. St. Louis is a writer, teacher, activist, and speaker. She has penned the books Consolata's Companion, The Sun Thief, and co-written with Harold Kautz-Vella Dangerous Imagination, Silent Assimilation. The Fae are the so-called "fairies" of legend who are the seed race of modern human beings, the Sidhe (Irish shee), the hybrids.
(CongLib/congregationallibrary.org) Library Director Peggy Bendroth interviews Prof. David D. Hall on his book, A Reforming People on Puritanism. The conversation is divided into four sections: To begin with, What are Hall's reasons for writing this book, how did he put it together, what are the misconceptions around calling early Colonial New England a "theocracy."
This morning I woke up and asked God the question, “What do you want from me today?”
Since God rarely capitulates to my demand for an instant answer, I didn’t wait for a response. [Atheist Mother Theresa also explained her "communication" with the ultimate Christian deity as one of "mutual silence."] I jumped out of bed and into my day.
It was in the [bathroom] shower that I heard God’s reply. This happens so frequently that I’m beginning to wonder if my bathroom should be designated a religious shrine.
“Be compassionate,” God said. “That’s what I want you to do today.”
As [Buddhist monk and peace activist] Thich Nhat Hanh says, “Compassion is a verb.” Unlike someone who is merely empathic, the compassionate person not only feels the pain of the other but actively does something to alleviate their suffering as well.
Why is compassion in such short supply these days? Radical self-concern, our spiritual nemesis, militates against our practicing it. We are so preoccupied with our own struggles that we become inured to the unseen difficulties others are surely facing. More

Imagine reading the Bible like an attorney looking for evidence of what it actually says. One of the most famous attorneys of our time did just that. The Christian holy book comes undone on its own terms, that is, without resorting to things Christians could argue are "non-biblical."
(Bugliosi does not limit himself to Christianity, but also makes observations about Buddhism, Islam, Judaism, and Hinduism at minute 32:20. He misspeaks to suggest that the Buddha might have been an agnostic or atheist when in fact he was a non-theist, which means he said whether or not there are gods is not relevant to saving oneself from suffering).
No mention is made of the Gnostic gospels or New Age material. This is not an atheist attack, nor is it one sect of the religion against another. Instead, all of the information comes from bonafide biblical texts themselves (New Testament, Old Testament, Hebrew, English, Protestant, Catholic, and Greek).
Famed attorney discusses what the Bible really says with KPFK's Sonali Kolhatkar. Conservative prosecutor and Christian agnostic Vincent Bugliosi is best known for successfully prosecuting Charles Manson and writing the best-selling book Helter Skelter, which went on to sell over 7 million copies, becoming the biggest selling true-crime book in publishing history.
He is also the author of Outrage on the acquittal of O.J. Simpson, and more recently The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder. Bugliosi has won 21 out of 21 murder cases and 105 out of 106 felony cases. He spent the past two years working on his new book Divinity of Doubt: The God Question.
On April 12, 2011, Bugliosi spoke with Uprising host Sonali Kolhatkar about his new work, Divinity of Doubt. Atheism? No. Freewill? No. Virgin birth? No (according to the Bible, see video at minute 48:30). Darwin was an agnostic. Einstein believed in some kind of God, not a Judeo-Christian kind, but some kind. Bugliosi outdoes them both by diving deep into the Bible, which comes undone as we have misinterpreted it. Christians frequently say it says one thing when, in fact, it says the opposite.
(Full movie, iufoc) This clip is from Daniel Sheehan's last presentation at the International UFO Congress. He discuses his impressive Harvard background, including as official counsel for the Jesuit order, and the Vatican's recent discussion regarding extraterrestrial life. The lecture was described as: Daniel Sheehan Presents The Essential Philosophical, Theological and Political Questions.
In the question of whether intelligent life exists on other planets, the Jesuit Director of The Vatican Observatory made a declaration of, "very suitable questions deserving of serious consideration."
Daniel Sheehan discusses all aspects of the questions concerning the philosophical, theological, and political implications of the UFO phenomenon that exist within the UFO research community and go beyond the resolved factual question of whether or not intelligent extraterrestrial civilizations exist and whether or not some of the UFO incidents reported constitute direct contact between members of the human species and members of an extraterrestrial species.
