Mind the Shift

Freddy Silva is an author, a speaker and an independent researcher of ancient knowledge and lost civilizations, in particular the temples and other megalithic sites our ancestors built and left behind. The old cultures knew where to build these things to harness the flow of energy. In Freddy Silva’s mind, they are portals.“All of these places around the world that we call temples, for lack of a better word, are located at seismically active spots, and the foundation on which they stand create an electrical charge or current along the landscape.”The builders also carefully chose the rocks they used to build their temples. They would sometimes go hundreds of miles to find the right stones, which have the properties to act as a kind of energy field.“All this makes the laws of physics act differently within these sites”, says Freddy.Very few of the megalithic temples were burial sites. They were used for out of body experiences, shamanism and “accessing information from an astral reference library”.“We can call them portals because they literally punch a hole in the way we view the third dimension, and they get you to access another level of reality.”Today we know that the heightened energetic lines where old megalithic temples are found are telluric currents. NASA has actually mapped them.“Anywhere these telluric currents cross on the surface of the earth, you’ll find a standing stone, a dolmen, a mound, a pyramid, a stonehenge”, says Freddy.Thousands of years ago, people knew how to pick up on these energetic lines. They didn’t really need to build anything to harness the energy. So why did many of them do that? Freddy Silva thinks they wanted to “x-mark” the highly charged places by placing megaliths on them and preserve them, because they knew that humans in the future – us – would forget this knowledge.“That’s the only explanation that makes sense to me.”In fact, not all ancient cultures built megaliths. Neither the indigenous Australians nor the Hopis did, for example. They just knew where the sacred places were.When Christianity arrived, we were well into forgetfulness. Interestingly enough, however, the Gothic cathedrals of the late medieval era were built on sacred sites. The ancient knowledge had gone underground and secretly been preserved and conveyed, starting with the mystery schools of Egypt and continuing with the Essenes and the Gnostics. The Knights templar were one of these groups that were privy to the old wisdom“They were essentially the Essenes under a different name.”The Templars oversaw the erection of some of the most magnificent Gothic cathedrals in Europe in the 12th and 13th century. “They built sacred spaces disguised as catholic churches. This is the best joke in history”, Freddy quips.He believes that the knowledge of “the gods” – how nature really works – goes all the way back to the Atlantean civilization, which collapsed in the Younger Dryas period 12,000 to 13,000 years ago.The cataclysm that ended the previous high civilizations was likely caused by a devastating bombardment of cosmic debris, which gave rise to an obsession our ancestors had with looking at the sky.“Like in Central America. Why this obsession with long range calendars? The Maya have something like 14 calendars, and some cover hundreds of thousands of years.”Our ancestors are telling us a cautionary tale. Today scientists know that the chunks of rock that created the big flood – the bulk of the Taurid meteor stream – are coming back between 2036 and 2042.But Freddy Silva is hopeful. We can be prepared.“The old cultures teach us that we are the Gods we’ve been waiting for. The help is there for us to find.” Freddy Silva's website [https://invisibletemple.com/]

Arabella Thaïs is a philosopher in the renaissance person style. Her research spans quantum mechanics, cosmology, chaos theory, literature, aesthetics, higher-dimensional mathematics, ontology, and metaphysics. She runs The Temple of Truth, a school of consciousness and self-realization. When we throw ourselves into our conversation, it quickly takes off in all conceivable directions. Beauty Arabella emphasizes the importance of beauty, in a profound sense of the word. Beauty and love are not the same, but they are intimately intertwined. She cites Dante Alighieri, who said beauty will save the world. “It’s about moral beauty. Beauty is related to truth and the good.” Beauty is also related to the experience of this life. Nonhuman intelligence A few years ago, Arabella had several direct interactions with nonhuman intelligence. She saw lights and orbs appearing and disappearing, and she saw and communicated with shape shifting entities. “That changed my life forever.” “They’re here to support us. They help us remember what we already know.” Free will We are born with a divine blueprint, Arabella thinks. What about free will, then? “It’s a paradoxical both-and”, she says. The script is already written, but it is when we align with the path we chose before we were born here that we truly exert our free will. “And when you truly believe this, you’re not worried, because you know that everything will work out for you. It’s all perfect.” The latter assertion raises morally tricky questions. Everything being perfect doesn’t mean that everything is as it should be, Arabella points out. “None of the evil stuff is okay. It needs to be resolved and eliminated. But the journey of experience and then transcendence is perfect.”  A dream world There are different terms for what the Hindu tradition calls maya, the material illusion we live in. Arabella prefers ‘dream’ before ‘simulation’. The fact that we all live in this dream means that if we all shared a vision of an ideal reality, we would realize it almost instantly. “Like in a lucid dream. When you become lucid you can create anything.” This is also where astrology comes in. Astrological principles, by which every point in spacetime has its particular qualities, are a part of the dream construct. A new society How might we reorganize this world? How might we transcend the detrimental hierarchical structures and live according to our true essence? Arabella makes a case for anarchy, which she means is a misconstrued concept. It doesn't mean chaos, it means organizing organically, without hierarchical leader figures. “Democracy kind of works, but it’s actually not ideal. We need to move beyond that.” “The new paradigm necessitates a higher level of consciousness to create a society that is safe, abundant and beautiful.” Awakening Arabella had a spontaneous spiritual awakening when she was 27. “For many years, I was wandering this earth in a state of absolut despair, confused and perturbed. Only through the spontaneous awakening I knew my path. I just remembered everything, who I was and the nature of the universe.” And what will precipitate humanity’s great awakening? “It’s multi-faceted.” Our connection with nonhuman intelligence will be part of it, Arabella thinks. But we will likely also experience systems collapsing faster than ever before, leading to civil unrest. This will force people to realize ‘we can’t go on like this’. We will probably see spontaneous awakenings as well, when people will start remembering. “And the old materialist paradigm will collapse.” Arabella’s website [⁠arabellathais.com⁠] Cosmic Codex podcast [https://open.spotify.com/show/0ZiHsFVsygckskvdZVW9ML⁠] Temple of Truth [⁠https://www.arabellathais.com/templeoftruth⁠]

Kirsty Tait describes herself as an entrepreneur turned “soulpreneur”.“You can’t really be an entrepreneur if you’re not connected to your soul”, she says.The last few years she has been following signs in life, which has led her to shuttle back and forth between continents, with a special focus on the Central American nation of Panama. We’ll get back to why.Kirsty accidentally entered entrepreneurship, she says, and years later she also accidentally entered spirituality. She tells a fascinating, uplifting, beautiful and also funny story about how a failure to properly microdose psilocybin changed her life.“I had my whole world shift. It was the ultimate awakening. I went into pure consciousness. I went into past lives. I understood there's no such thing as good and evil. I understood energy, death, birth and rebirth.”The meaning of life?“To be here now and experience whatever it is that you are experiencing.”Kirsty realized that all this new understanding was in fact not new but past memories (including around a hundred past lives). After the psychedelic experience she tried other modalities to achieve a similar inner elevation, particularly breathwork and deep meditation. One day, on the sofa, she plunged into a three hour out-of-body experience.“Breath is the most powerful technique we have. Just sitting in silence and working with the breath is an amazing medicine for your body.”We actually get sneak peeks into the “other side” on a daily basis, Kirsty points out, for example when we sleep and dream.“Consciousness is limitless. The brain limits us because we are told that it limits us.”Are we living in crucial times?“We couldn’t live in any other time than this one. Everything happening now is perfect. it cannot not be perfect. If everything in the world wasn’t happening right now in perfect synchronicity with the existence of the tapestry of life, you would not be here. So, crucial times don’t really exist.”Time is a notoriously elusive concept. But, to be practical about it, what about the historic human integration of our time? Doesn’t that affect us in unique ways?Kirsty isn’t sure. Today we interconnect via technology, but maybe ancient cultures were interconnected spiritually, she thinks. Maybe cultures in different continents that supposedly didn’t have any concept of each other (as far as we know) were in contact in other, natural ways.Kirsty Tait sees a perhaps surprising link between spirituality, authenticity and entrepreneurship.“I honestly don’t think there can be a difference”, she says.“If you’re truly showing up as your authentic self, you are spiritual, regardless of whether you believe in spirituality or not.”“‘Who am I’ and ‘how do I want to show up in the world’. Those are the only two questions we need to ask ourselves.”“When you feel what is true for you, and it really lands, you feel it in your whole body. Your nervous system will calm down. There will be no fight or flight reactions.”Many people perceive the world right now as messy. How to handle that? “Mother Theresa would always go to a peace rally, never to an anti-war rally. Why? The energy in the peace rally promotes peace, and the energy in the anti-war rally promotes war.”Where attention goes, energy flows, as it were.And what about Panama? Kirsty is passionately involved in a project called “The Conscious Island” on a peninsula in Bocas del Toro on the Caribbean coast in western Panama. The idea is to create a conscious community, including an event space and a wellness space, by amalgamating with the traditions of an indigenous community still living on the peninsula.

“You see bald-headed people who have been treated for cancer. ‘You're trying to kill cancer cells, why the hell are you going bald?’ ”The provocative rhetorical question is asked by professor Thomas Seyfried, whose research at Boston College will revolutionize our understanding of cancer and other chronic diseases. “Metabolic therapy kills cancer cells and keeps your hair”, he says. “People are being brutalized by the system. They’re being treated by people who don’t know the biology and biochemistry behind the disease.” “Cancer is not a genetic disease, it’s a metabolic problem. The reason everybody says it’s a genetic disease is confirmation bias. It’s been hammered into everybody’s brain”, Seyfried says. We can see that conventional oncology is not addressing the right problem, because the death rates aren't dropping the way they should, he points out. "The promise of the gene theory has not come to fruition, nor will it ever do. Meanwhile, thousands of people are dying every day. It’s the greatest tragedy in the history of medicine." Thomas Seyfried does not dismiss conventional methods like radiation and chemo, but the problem is that those are being employed first, when they should be employed last. Seyfried contends that cancer is “a remarkably simple disorder” when you understand the biology. But we have made it complicated and mysterious by focusing on downstream phenomena instead of the actual cause, metabolic dysfunction. “You really have to work hard to get your body to get cancer”, he says. “Our paleolithic ancestors and those who live according to traditional ways rarely have cancer. Animals in nature rarely have cancer.” “Before antibiotics and orthopedic surgeons we died from injuries and infections. What’s killing us now, whether it’s dementia, cancer, cardiovascular disease or diabetes, is civilization itself.” Which means: Not exercising, being under stress, having poor sleep and eating ultra-processed food (sometimes food-like substances). Our bodies become less and less capable of using oxygen to generate energy. Cells resort to fermentation, like cells in primitive life forms once did. This is the crux of the matter. When cells switch from oxygen to glucose (a sugar) and glutamine (an amino acid) to generate energy, they become cancer cells. The solution? Starving the tumor. German doctor Otto Warburg discovered the metabolic mechanism behind dysregulated cell growth already a century ago. But other theories outmaneuvered his findings. Before rediscovering Warburg’s theory and improving it, Thomas Seyfried was “just as indoctrinated as everybody else”, he says. Seyfried and his colleagues developed a diet-drug combination to destroy tumors by doing away with the detrimental fuels glucose and glutamine. A low-carb, high fat diet plus fasting targets glucose (healthy cells can burn fatty acids and ketone bodies, cancer cells cannot), and a “press-pulse” method including certain repurposed anti-parasite drugs targets glutamine. Add exercise. Patients can keep track of the levels of glucose and ketones in their blood with a simple device. “We’re getting longer and longer survivors for the so-called terminal cancers.” One big obstacle to getting established medicine to rethink is that there is no money in metabolic therapy. There’s no pill or shot for Big Pharma to sell. But Seyfried is optimistic: “When you educate people in certain ways and make certain products that will keep the entire body healthy, this will be a new industry. It’s coming.” Seyfried's research at Boston College [https://www.bc.edu/bc-web/schools/morrissey/departments/biology/people/faculty-directory/thomas-seyfried.html] IHMC Lecture [https://youtu.be/SEE-oU8_NSU?si=8zii25Yw-BNoMPcX] by Seyfried

Danny Sheehan is an acclaimed civil rights attorney. He is at the forefront of the movement advocating for UAP disclosure and transparency, but he has a history of being at the center of a number of famous big cases. This episode has two parts. 1 The UFO/UAP part In the 1970s, Danny Sheehan got to see the classified portions of a long-running UFO program called Project Blue Book. “There they were, the photographs of a crash retrieval. There wasn’t any doubt about what they were. It was a classic UFO.” Today, he is deeply engaged in the process of shedding light on the UFO cover-up. Whistleblowers have testified before the US Congress, under oath, that nonhuman craft have been retrieved by secret programs for many decades. Danny wants to see a gradual and responsible disclosure. That’s why he founded the New Paradigm Institute, whose purpose is to push for precisely that, on the political level and in society at large. And it’s getting closer. “The cat is out of the bag now. It’s running around.” Before he became an attorney, Danny wanted to be an astronaut, to be able to get into close contact with the extraterrestrial beings he knew were there. “Many planets in the Universe are billions of years older than ours. Those civilizations have had a lot more time to explore the fundamental questions, like the origin of the universe and the relationship between consciousness and the material realm.” ET spacecraft seem to operate telepathically, for example. We also have capabilities like that, but they have been suppressed, Danny contends. “Institutional religions have kept the secret.” This means that disclosure is required not only on the part of the government. “It requires disclosure also on the part of the major religious institutions, which have withheld this information. ”Danny is critical of the nation state and its institutions: “People need to understand that there is a structure in place that is fundamentally unjust. I discovered this when I came into the world of law.” “When we encounter an ET civilization that is billions of years in advance of us, we need to reorganize the structures of our planet towards fairness, and to relieve us of the danger of self-imposed thermonuclear destruction.” 2 The JFK part (which also features as a separate video on Youtube [https://youtu.be/SFK63MQbcsc?si=rcGKCH2QBBejo57Z]) Danny Sheehan was one of the people who began scouring the JFK files as soon as they were released in mid-March of 2025. In fact, he had been doing that only minutes before this interview. The JFK assassination connects the dots between several huge political, economic and military crises and events, and it even has a connection to the UFO phenomenon, according to Danny. It's complicated, but Danny’s explanation makes sense. And if true, it forces us to rewrite history.
