Speaker 0 (0s): Ah, well, if it isn't the most intelligent people in the world, there you are. What are you trying to hide over there? What are you doing? What are you doing? Let me tell you something. You are amazing. You are attractive and you are funny and you are just one of those people that everybody wants to be around. You make everyone feel better. I love you for it. 

I hope that right now, you're about to embark on the greatest day of the greatest journey of your life. It's happening right now, right in front of you. All you have to do is just pull, be present. Bow. Here you are. You're right here with thinking about all that other stuff. Just live right now. Listen to this. What you and I got this thing go in. You and me, baby, you and me. We're standing in the foothills on the mountain of dreams, telling ourself. 

It's not as hard as it seems. Are you ready to start this day off? Are you ready to start off this evening? Maybe you're ready to end this day. Whatever it is. I'm happy to be with you. I'm happy you're here. Thank you for taking just a few moments to hang out with me. I missed you guys. I missed you. I'm sure you missed me too. Right? Come on. It's all right. Well, we are going to continue today with our spot lot on Boulevard. 

This week is one of my favorite terms. McKenna, you know him, I know him. We love him. Let us start off with a little bit of some of Terrence's thoughts here. We'll go through a couple quotes. Then we'll jump into an article and I'm sure I'll stop from time to time just to tell you my thoughts on it. Are you ready? Let's do it in James Joyce's. Ulysses, Stephen Dedalus tells us history is the nightmare from which I am trying to awaken. 

do you guys feel that way? Do you feel like history is the nightmare from which you are trying to awaken some pretty scandalous things happen in history? Haven't they, science has nothing to say about how one can decide to one's hand and do a fist. And yet it happens.

Humanity correctly seen in the context of the last 500 years is an extruder of technological material. We take in matter that has a low degree of organization. We put it through mental filters and we extrude jewelry, gospels space shuttles. This is what we do. We are like coral animals and embedded in a technological reef of extruded, psychic objects. All our tool making implies our belief in an ultimate tool. 

That tool, could it be the flying saucer or the soul exteriorized in three dimensional space. The body can become an internalized holographic object embedded in a solid state, hyper dimensional matrix that is eternal so that we each wander through a true Elysium. The English poet, mystic William Blake said that as one starts into the spiral, there is the possibility of falling from the golden track until eternal death. 

Light is composed of photons, which have no antiparticle. This means that there is no dualism in the world of light. The only experience of time that one can have is of a subjective time that is created by one's own mental processes. But in relationship to the Newtonian universe, there is no time.
