Manly P. Hall discusses whether we choose our lives before birth.

Does reincarnation exist? Before we incarnate on this planet do we predetermine what happens? Does free will exist?

In this compelling lecture, Manly P. Hall addresses these questions  and more.

This talk has been restored, remastered and edited for audio clarity.

Manly Palmer Hall (March 18, 1901 – August 29, 1990) was a Canadian-born author, lecturer, astrologer and mystic.

He is best known for his 1928 work The Secret Teachings of All Ages. Over his 70 year career, he gave thousands of lectures, including two at Carnegie Hall, and published over 150 volumes.

In 1934, he founded The Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles, which he dedicated to the "Truth Seekers of All Time", with a research library, lecture hall and publishing house.

Montague Summers

Augustus Montague Summers (10 April 1880 – 10 August 1948) was an English author and clergyman. He is known primarily for his scholarly work on the English drama of the 17th century, as well as for his idiosyncratic studies on witches, vampires, and werewolves, in all of which he professed to believe. He was responsible for the first English translation, published in 1928, of the notorious 15th-century witch hunter's manual, the Malleus Maleficarum.




The occult

Summers' career as an ostensibly Catholic clergyman was highly unusual. He wrote works of hagiography on Saint Catherine of Siena and Saint Anthony Maria Zaccaria, but his primary religious interest was in the subject of the occult. While Aleister Crowley, with whom he was acquainted, adopted the persona of a modern-day witch, Summers played the part of the learned Catholic witch-hunter. In the introduction to his book on The History of Witchcraft and Demonology (1926) he writes:

In the following pages I have endeavoured to show the witch as she really was – an evil liver: a social pest and parasite: the devotee of a loathly and obscene creed: an adept at poisoning, blackmail, and other creeping crimes: a member of a powerful secret organisation inimical to Church and State: a blasphemer in word and deed, swaying the villagers by terror and superstition: a charlatan and a quack sometimes: a bawd: an abortionist: the dark counsellor of lewd court ladies and adulterous gallants: a minister to vice and inconceivable corruption, battening upon the filth and foulest passions of the age.

In 1928, he published the first English translation of Heinrich Kramer's and James Sprenger's Malleus Maleficarum ("The Hammer of Witches"), a 15th-century Latin text on the hunting of witches. In his introduction, Summers insists that the reality of witchcraft is an essential part of Catholic doctrine, and declares the Malleus to be an admirable and correct account of witchcraft and of the methods necessary to combat it. This should be contrasted with the vastly more sceptical and critical attitude of mainstream Catholic scholars, reflected for instance in the Rev. Herbert Thurston's article on "Witchcraft" for the Catholic Encyclopaedia of 1912, which labels the publication of the Malleus a "disastrous episode."

Montague Summers then turned to vampires, producing The Vampire: His Kith and Kin (1928) and The Vampire in Europe (1929), and later to werewolves with The Werewolf (1933). Summers' work on the occult is notorious for his unusual and old-fashioned writing style, his display of erudition, and his purported belief in the reality of the subjects he treats.

I added:

With his head shaved and the facial hair, it gave him that Anton LeVey look... like "a devil"... then he's down in the dark crawlspace .. like "hell".... then "the evil laugh".... overt/covert symbolism.. ... also money "the root of all evil"

And, obviously it's like the Devil's evil laugh. Also, the end of the scene with him "framed" by the wooden frame floor opening; that reminded me so much of the old 'Night Gallery' series of the 70s which used to be in syndication every evening late on the old analog UHF channel 44 in the Bay Area.

Neo-Western genre

Recently I watched 'El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie', which was initially on Netflix before airing on AMC. It featured the yet untold storyline about Jesse Pinkman's fate at the end of the 'Breaking Bad' series. One interesting aspect of 'Breaking Bad" and now 'Better Call Saul' is that they are under what is something of a new genre of Western: "Neo Western."

'Better Call Saul' is in its fifth season now, and while I appreciated the laid-back New Mexico backdrop to its tense storyline, I still have found it a little slow in developing. Some absolutely love it, while others wanted the "Saul Goodman" from 'Breaking Bad' immediately. Well, he's finally arrived!

Marie Laveau's Tomb

Apparently it was refurbished a few years ago. Prior to that, or possibly even now, it was a target for vandals; mostly of the spray paint variety. Really?.... or as they say.. Really bro?? Do you really want to anger the spirit of Marie Laveau? If I had to vandalize a tomb, she would pretty much be at the very very bottom of the list!

"I visited Lake Louise two years ago, and it really did have that blue-green glow in the sunlight. I was struggling with some mental health issues at the time, and I found healing up there. I remember just sitting at the shore by the lodge, feeling the icy water, looking over the lake, and actually feeling calm for the first time in over a year. For once, I actually felt truly happy. I went home with a new perspective on life, a smile on my face, and a spring in my step, and a beautiful experience I can use to calm myself whenever I feel distressed. I can't wait for the day I can go back." 😇

If you happen to be in the area around Banff, maybe try the Ticino Swiss Italian Restaurant. The town of Banff has a population of 7,847 and looks like a combo of Aspen and South Lake Tahoe. I can't vouch for this restaurant, but it looks like it has some regionally specific Ticinese recipes. I didn't see one item I remember from Ticinese cuisine... roasted ferret.

California dry season

One year ago, California was officially declared out of it's seven year drought. However, currently 59% of the state is abnormally dry. Unlike most states, California has a normal virtually rain-free six-month dry season from approximately the start of May through October. I have a tremendous amount of outdoor work and projects to do, but I feel like I can't celebrate Spring and the coming pleasant weather as I would like to.

'Savage murder of Sister Margaret Ann Pahl by a twisted priest, Father Gerald Robinson, profiled on ID'

By Jerry Brown - MonstersAndCritics.com - March 1, 2020

This week, The Lake Erie Murders examines the death of a nun in a hospital chapel in Toledo, Ohio, in 1980. Sister Margaret Ann Pahl’s body was found on the floor of the vestibule of the former Mercy Hospital on Holy Saturday, a day before Easter. It was also a day before her 72nd birthday.

Her killer was a priest, Father Gerald Robinson, who was the chaplain at the hospital. Church historians have said this is the only recorded case of a priest murdering a nun.

A particularly gruesome murder

An autopsy revealed that Sister Margaret Ann had been choked to the edge of death before being stabbed in the head, neck, and face. She had been draped with an altar cloth, and nine of her stab wounds were in the shape of an upside-down cross. There was a smear of blood across her forehead as if she had been anointed in the last rites.

Robinson was questioned at the time, and investigators had their suspicions, but the case went cold due to a lack of evidence. However, the case was reopened in 2003 after a woman accused Robinson of sexually assaulting her when she was a child; these charges were dropped, but police looked again at the evidence from the 1980 murder.

Apparent proof of a cryto-Satanist Priest inside of the Catholic Church

In other words, literally a dark-occult Satanist, not merely an evil man. In a recent broadcast of Investigation Discovery's 'The Lake Erie Murders', in an episode entitled 'Black Sabbath', the 1980 case of "Murder of Margaret Ann Pahl" was featured. Father Gerald Robinson, if he was truly guilty, was proof of a Roman Catholic Priest who also happened to be a dark-occult Satanic murderer. Even today---even with all the problems in the church, even with known dark occult practices in high places---this seems almost unfathomable. It's like a Fire Chief being an arsonist!

As covered here before, there are different types of Satanism, of which Father Robinson was of the very worse kind: The practice of evil based on a willful antagonism against Biblical Christianity. The crime clearly had the marks, including an upside down cross, of a ritual murder. It should also be stated that more than a few people believe him to be innocent of the charges. Anyone who follows true crime must have their one favorite "innocent but convicted" case. Even if I entertained one ounce of a thought that he might be innocent, his courtroom manner of what appeared to be total indifference would have been the sealer for me. He couldn't have looked more guilty if he tried! His double-life and it's dramatic contradictions makes this case truly bizarre.

************



Raven Grimassi passed away one year ago today. I've come to believe that we are on this earth, in each of our many lifetimes here, in order to advance the baton in probably a number of areas to the best of our limited abilities. In spite of all of our faults, "the best of us" will usually do this in at least whatever small measure that we can. I think Raven did that very well, however the collective journey continues. "BE the change that you want to see in the world."

If you lose someone from your life--whether family, friend, mentor, or more of a public figure--BE that person in a sense, if you see fit to do so. That is one of the greatest honors that we can bestow upon another person. I think that one of the first spirits which he met after he passed, perhaps right after those to which he was closest here on earth, was Aradia herself. She must have stood tall and beautiful, and she may have said something such as "You have done well my kindred."

This earthly realm, although it often does not feel so, is all about us! Not in a manner of greed, but our experiences are its primary purpose for being. I believe this concept was a part of Raven's quote above. I like to believe that those ancestors of mine who had their true essential culture taken away from them, can look down upon me under the moonlight and be able to say "Even after all of this time, he chose US and our ways over all others." I no longer say "RIP," since Raven will continue on in his own soul journey, and we must continue on as well.

Birth.... Life.... Death and to a New Arising! He is now the Morning and the Spring!

Ostara 2020 - Part IV


The “Bennington Triangle”

Bermuda Triangle is very well known, but not quite so well known is the “Bennington Triangle”

…the name given to a mysterious area in southwestern Vermont, by author Joe Citro, describing an area in which a number of people went missing between 1920 and 1950. Primarily known for the Battle of Bennington, the region is rich in historical events dating back to the 1700’s. Bennington is fertile ground for ghostly events, folklore and supernatural occurrences. The region is often referred to as the “Bennington Triangle” due to the many odd, unexplained happenings within its surroundings, buildings and nearby mountains. Native Americans consider Glastenbury Mountain “cursed” and used it strictly for burying their dead.  Locals believe that Native Americans regarded Glastenbury as “cursed” and avoided it, as well as tales of hairy “wild men” and other strange beasts in the woods.  They believed the land to be cursed because all four winds met in that spot. There is also mention in native American folklore of an enchanted stone which is said to swallow anything that steps on it.

Over the years there have been between 30-40 unexplained disappearances on the mountain.  It is known for certain that at least five persons from this area went missing, some of them on Glastenbury Mountain itself, between 1945 and 1950. These include 74 year-old Middie Rivers, 68 year-old James Tedford, 8 year-old Paul Jepson, 18 year-old Paula Welden, and 53 year-old Frieda Langer. Of these remains of only one was found, that of Frieda Langer.Over the years there have been between 30-40 unexplained disappearances on the mountain.  It is known for certain that at least five persons from this area went missing, some of them on Glastenbury Mountain itself, between 1945 and 1950. These include 74 year-old Middie Rivers, 68 year-old James Tedford, 8 year-old Paul Jepson, 18 year-old Paula Welden, and 53 year-old Frieda Langer. Of these remains of only one was found, that of Frieda Langer.

Most reports on the subject view the circumstances as mysterious, as her body turned up in some tall grasses in an area that had been searched extensively a number of times in the seven months between her disappearance and the discovery of the corpse in an area that had been searched many times, making it unlikely that the search teams had simply missed her. There were several strange circumstances surrounding these disappearances. These are just a few examples of people who have come up missing in the area.

Because of the wide ranges of age and gender of the missing persons, it is thought that the possibility of them being victims of a serial killer is unlikely. This, combined with a lack of any evidence to offer support for any more prosaic explanation, has led many to speculate on possible paranormal causes, including abduction by UFO occupants, “cross dimensional wormholes”, or attack by the “Bennington Monster.” The trails stop partially up the mountain, suggesting that no one goes up there.  When you walk into the woodlands of Glastenbury Mountain you don’t hear anything living, it’s as though even the animals don’t dare to venture there.

Bennington Triangle / Glastenbury, VT - Documentary (Part 1 of 2)

MSG 802

Short documentary I made a few years ago when I was taking a documentary course in college. Its 20 minutes long split up into two parts on youtube. Its not really finished, I thought I was going to spend the time to re cut some of it but its been sitting on my hard drive for so long and I probably won't ever re cut the film. So I figured I would post in its current state. The editing needs to be paced better and I probably should have conducted some more interviews. When researching the Paula Welden case I found out she has two or three sisters and one who is supposedly still alive, I tried to track her down online to see if I could get an interview but couldn't really find anything. If anyone in fact knows hows to get in touch with current family members let me know and I would probably still be interested in going out to do the interview and posting it on here.

Feel free to leave your comments or critiques below. At the very least maybe the comment section below will spark up some new discussions on this topic?

The Minds of Men - Full Interview of Dr. Breggin

Peter Breggin MD

This is Peter R. Breggin's interview with film makers Aaron and Melissa Dykes in the making of The Minds of Men, a documentary in which Dr. Breggin is featured. This is the whole unedited interview, presenting some of Peter Breggin's most inspired and engaging discussions about his life’s work and shows what motivated him to become such an avid lifetime reformer.  You will know him and understand his work much better after viewing this.

The film examines government-supported mind and behavioral control experimentation, including psychosurgery, electroshock treatment, and sensory deprivation. The film makers generously gave permission for Dr. Breggin to publish his entire uncut interview, most of which is being seen for the first time. The film is an extraordinary success, quickly reaching nearly one million viewers, and rising.

Dr. Breggin shares his feelings, thoughts and actions surrounding one of the most important accomplishments of his career: his successful international campaign to stop the world-wide resurgence of brain-mutilating lobotomy and psychosurgery. In the several segments, he describes his response to learning the truth about the hidden, devastating impact on children and adults and his discovery of the racist and political ambitions of leading psychiatrists and neurosurgeons.

Dr. Breggin describes harrowing and sometimes triumphant confrontations with powerful professional and political leaders, including Senator Ted Kennedy and top officials at the American Psychiatric Association, who did their best to stop his reform work. He describes how the experience made him into a lifelong reformer.

For detailed descriptions of Peter and Ginger Breggin's successful campaigns to stop federally-funded psychosurgical, eugenic and racist programs of behavioral control, see Psychiatry as an Instrument of Social and Political Control @ https://breggin.com/social-page

Alaska wine refers to wine made in the state of Alaska. There are four wineries in Alaska, which produce mostly fruit wines made with fruits other than grapes. Some wineries produce an ice wine. There are no designated American Viticultural Areas in the state.
