The Last Book You Read? [Archive] - Page 2 - David Icke's Official Forums

Some of you may be interested in the following, I have read a couple of his books and they are well researched and wonderfully presented. It makes for fascinating reading and I have been in touch with Jonathan and he is totally convinced by his findings. You know I would love to see David Icke expand his one man show and invite others to speak at his talks, even if he disagrees with them, that would add another dimension to it all would it not?

I LOVE you guys!

Last week I sent out an email that shocked many. But also
announcing the special 7-ebook set at a big reduction. And
within minutes, the requests started pouring in. (they're an
instant download).

Some people pleaded for more time. And that pulled on my heart
strings... because this set you will find invaluable. So for
just once I shall keep the door open until next Wednesday.

You will see details further below.

Anyway, as I said, many were shocked by the news I gave last
week. In case you lost that email, you'll see it again, below.

You may already suspect this. But this year - 2008 - may be
the turning point in our history. A dangerous year.

And that means economically... ecologically... politically...
religiously... socially. Take your pick.

So our team has been working overtime to get out to you some
vital information while there is still time.

We have been gathering this information from the bottom of
the sea and from remote mountain and desert regions of the
world.

My crews slept on ashes, dived among sharks, and dodged
terrorist ambushes, to get this information to you.

When I realized how explosive some of this knowledge is
- and that desperate efforts were being made to suppress it
- I knew that this just had to be shared.

When you know the answers to some of the questions below,
you will have a clear-cut advantage over others who have
no clue what lies ahead.

We have brought together three major fields of research:

* Forbidden discoveries
* Crucial current events
* Startling prophecies

These are some of the issues:

1. THE 2012 PROPHECY
* Do we have only 4 years left?
* Did the Maya predict the end in 2012?
* Does our planet face a catastrophe in the year 2012?
* Will a gravitational cosmic tsunami cause the sun to scorch
the earth?
* Will the only immediate survivors be people in underground
cities, caves, and submarines?
* What is the plain, stark truth about 2012?
* And learn the chilling news about depleted uranium - the
dying of bees, deer, birds, bats and fish worldwide, and how
this affects your survival.
* Is there hope beyond this...?

2. THE GREAT DATING BLUNDER
* Don't be conned.
* Why do scientists reject most carbon dating results?
* Is this true?: Carbon dating shows that a famous historical
event hasn't happened yet!
* Do you know how to make oil in ten minutes?
* Why do only a few dating methods suggest an "old" earth?
* Why are these widely publicized - while the majority of systems,
which suggest a "young" age for our earth, are ignored?
* Amazing discoveries you are not supposed to know… about ice,
dinosaurs, trees, magnetic reversals, petrified men, oil
and gas, coal, fossils, lakes, deltas, waterfalls, coral reefs,
deserts, the tipping of the earth's axis, and the age of
civilizations, such as Egypt.

3. STING OF THE SCORPION
* Many of our world leaders are currently making their decisions
by astrology. Their decisions affect the lives of millions of
people. How safe is this?
* Did you hear about the Great Astrology Cover-up - and the hidden
truth behind Star Names and Signs?
* Also, did you know that ancient civilizations believed a serpent
- which represented the devil - had taken control of the world?
* That they believed a virgin's baby would fight the serpent
defeat him and bring peace, life and happiness to mankind?
* Did you know that the pictures on the sky map were used to
describe this story and NOT to tell people's fortunes through
the stars?
* And that the NAMES of the stars, as well as the star sign
pictures told that story?
* Discover some power-packed prophecies which are soon to affect
us all.

4. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TOWER OF BABEL?
* The intriguing search for the remains of history's most infamous
building.
* Startling new scientific evidence on the origin of languages.
* Amazing high technology and lost knowledge.
* Scary dive in murky water for an ancient skyscraper. Tantalizing
secrets under the water.

5. WAS THIS A MIRACLE?
* Discover some amazing modern phenomena:
* How do you pull a girl through a solid wall?
* Deadly poison in the cup.
* The coins that floated across the bay.
* Why did the ant carry a contact lense?
* The miracle power of a brother's love song.
* The airport stranger knew too much.
* Keeping one step ahead of the secret service men.
* Buried alive behind the house.
* What you were never told about the Boxing Day tsunami.
* Why the gasoline would not burn.
* Was a man really raised from the dead in Lebanon?
* Shocking surprise in the canyon.
* During the murder, the clock struck 13
…and other surprising true reports!

Also I'm throwing in two exciting Bonus Reports.

And this evidence will stun you...

#1- WHO'S PLAYING JESUS GAMES?
* Over a billion people follow Christianity. But is
Jesus Christ just an historical mistake - or even
something worse? ?
* Is it true that early historians never mention him?
* And Jesus' resurrection - what are the scientific facts?
Is it a hoax, an hallucination, or history?
* Is it true that Gospel writers "contradict" one another?
* What about the Dead Sea scrolls - do they confirm or refute
Christianity?
* Are there "missing" books of the Bible?

With a huge showdown soon about to break, you can't afford to
be without this gripping, controversial and important
information…

This report is based on exciting archaeological discoveries
and over 25 years of ground-breaking research.

You owe it to yourself to get this into your hands. Compelling
evidence about the real origin of Christianity.

#2- THE SORCERERS' SECRET
* Discover the shocking truth - Who are the infiltrators who
are planning to take over the lives of unsuspecting Christians
and those of their children? This explosive report will send
shivers down your spine!
* Is there a deliberate alteration of the Bible on a large
scale?
* Why were Bible revisers sworn to secrecy?
* And have you heard about the King James Bible's amazing
hidden built-in dictionary?
* Also, why are some Bible editors suddenly struck dumb, or
end up in asylums, séances and prison cells?

Yes, you have just taken a tiny peep into "SECRETS EXPOSED ".
Not five, but seven astonishing, surprise-packed e-books in one
MIGHTY PACKAGE.

This is crucial, empowering information. And you will have FUN
discovering it. The best part is that you can get all this
information RIGHT NOW.

When you open them, you will discover that any one of
these 7 e-books is DYNAMITE. But with the entire set
of 7 you have in your grasp what some people kill for –
literally!!!

Here's where to go:
http://www.beforeus.com/secrets-exposed.php

Thankyou, again, Explorer Friend, for taking time to
think about this. Your life will be enriched for
the effort.

Wishing you and yours a good week ahead,
Jonathan Gray

Yes, there are some repetition but it is information thats very important get's out there so I kind of understand him there..
He bring some new stuff into his research too as the 'global warming' and 'chemtrails' (just 1 and a half page on chemmies:( but it's very informative)

I still like 'tales from the timeloop' best but this is close by, and it must be the best book to start with I think.

Cuttomg Through: Volumes l,2,3
The Adrogynous (Hermaphrodtic) Agenda

Hey Everyone:

Been away for a while, posting periodically to have the newcomers be as lucky as I, since I saw Matrixcutter's post of one of Alan's talks. I've been posting in the general area, but they keep deleting it and then locking me out for a few days. I know they're scared of too many people listening to Alan and with good reason. For once they do, there's no turning back.:p

I feel for the newcomers who may miss out on this valuable information, but alas, I have faith when their soul is ready for the real truth, somehow they will be led to this thread and others like it with Alan's information. After all, I too had saw the name Alan Watt for quite some time and keep passing it by thinking it was another yahoo with more fairy shit.:eek:

Has anyone read his book: Cuttomg Through: Volumes l,2,3 - The Adrogynous (Hermaphrodtic) Agenda? If not, I urge you to. It will be the treat of a lifetime. When I first ordered it and was waiting, I was wincing somewhat to think how it may have been a rip off. Even after all the truths I had learned from just listening to his blurbs. (Talk about how deeply ingrained the bullshit programming of this world/society/freemansons is!!)

Holy Wowwwww. Everything is explained. What a beaut to understand the real deal of the meaning of "Shapeshifting" and oh so so so much more. Just remember , if anyone reads it, don't discuss it with anyone in an open forum.

Alan deserves to be highly paid for this invaluable book he has written. Actually when you finish reading it, you'll be so stunned and satisfied, there will be nothing you feel like discussing with anyone. It'll make you start to use your mind once again, to think for yourself!! There's a certain peace that's attained by having all your yeah but's put to rest. Believe me, it's some deep, deep stuff.. As usual coming from Watt.

After reading it, I feel as if I never need to read another book again. When you read it, you'll understand who really this forum is run by and for. Again if anyone wants to know many real truths, they should pay the man.

To think of how much money I wasted on bullshit books that were just programming me, I feel great to let you all know this definitely will be the new so called "bible" of the future, the greatest historical piece of work ever written!! Invaluable for future generations that will come and everyone should have a copy now!!

Enjoy big time everyone and thanks a bizillion to Watt for taking the time to share these valuable truths with those who really want to know!!:cool:

last book i read -

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/daveybpl/9780749928537.jpg

2012: The Year of the Mayan Prophecy is a literary and metaphysical epic that binds together the cosmological phenomena of our time, ranging from crop circles to quantum theory to the worldwide resurgence of shamanism, supporting the Mayan prophecy that the year 2012 will bring an unprecedented global shift. In tracing the meaning of the prophetic Mayan 'end date' of 2012 to our present society, Daniel Pinchbeck draws together alien abductions, psychedelic visions, the current ecological crisis and other peculiar aspects of 21st century life into a new vision for our time. 2012 heralds the end of one way of existence and the return of another, in which the Mesoamerican God Quetzalcoatl returns, bringing with him an ancient - yet to us, wholly new - way of living. There are many hints, both in quantum theory and elsewhere, that humanity is precariously balanced between greater self-potential and environmental disaster. Pinchbeck's journey, which takes us from the endangered rainforests of the Amazon to Stonehenge in England, tells the story of a man in whose trials we recognise our own hopes and anxieties about modern life.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/daveybpl/supernatural.jpg

"Supernatural: of or relating to things that cannot be explained according to natural laws." Less than 50,000 years ago mankind had no art, no religion, no sophisticated symbolism, no innovative thinking. Then, in a dramatic and electrifying change, described by scientists as "the greatest riddle in human history", all the skills and qualities that we value most highly in ourselves appeared already fully formed, as though bestowed on us by hidden powers. In "Supernatural", Graham Hancock sets out to investigate this mysterious "before-and-after moment" and to discover the truth about the influences that gave birth to the modern human mind. His quest takes him on a journey of adventure and detection from the stunningly beautiful painted caves of prehistoric France, Spain and Italy to remote rock shelters in the mountains of South Africa where he finds a treasure trove of extraordinary Stone Age art.
He uncovers clues that lead him to travel to the depths of the Amazon rainforest to drink the powerful plant hallucinogen Ayahuasca with Indian shamans, whose paintings contain images of "supernatural beings" identical to the animal-human hybrids depicted in prehistoric caves and rock shelters. And hallucinogens such as mescaline, also produce visionary encounters with exactly the same beings. Scientists at the cutting edge of consciousness research have begun to consider the possibility that such hallucinations may be real perceptions of other "dimensions". Could the "supernaturals" first depicted in the painted caves and rock shelters be the ancient teachers of mankind? Could it be that human evolution is not just the "blind", "meaningless" process that Darwin identified, but something else, more purposive and intelligent, that we have barely even begun to understand?

Was Superman's arch nemesis Lex Luthor based on Aleister Crowley? Can Captain Marvel be linked to the Norse god Thor? In "Our Gods Wear Spandex", Christopher Knowles answers these questions and brings to light many other intriguing links between superheroes and the enchanted world of estoerica. Occult students and comic-book fans alike will discover countless fascinating connections, from the fact that like DC Comics editor Julius Schwartz started his career as H.P. Lovecraft's agent, to the tantalizing influence of Madame Blavatsky's Theosophy on the birth of comics, and the Gnosticism of Superman.The book also traces the rise of the comic superhero and how they relate to several cultural trends in the late 19th century, specifically the occult explosion in Western Europe and America. Knowles reveals the distinct superhero archetypes - for example, the Messiah, the Golem and the Amazon -and shows how the occult Bohemian underground of the early 20th century was the breeding ground for the modern comic book.
With the popularity of occult comics writers like "Invisibles" creator Grant Morrison and "V for Vendetta" creator Alan Moore, the vast ComiCon audience is poised for someone to seriously introduce them to the esoteric mysteries. Chris Knowles is doing just that in this epic book.The chapters include: Ancient of Days, Ascended Masters, God and Gangsters, Mad Scientists and Modern Sorcerers, and many more. From the ghettos of Prague and the Halls of Valhalla to the Fortress of Solitude and the aisles of BEA and ComiCon, this is the first book to show the inextricable link between superheroes and the enchanted world of esoterica.

A sign of the times, but also his sense of humour and awesome philosophy on life is really uplifting and humourous.

The book that completely and utterly changed the way I view everything!! I cannot recommend this book highly enough! I got it when I was 18, 18 years ago (OMG half my life has been spent under the influence of this book!), and I've re-read it at least once a year. I'm still learning from, still trying to digest the lessons presented. Amazing stuff! :)

I've just finished 'Star Maker' by Olaf Stapledon, just wonderful! I highly recommend it. It's nice to read books in the sci-fi oeuvre that don't rely on the writer trying to think of the most amazing gadgets to wow people with! ;)

Here's the Amazon.co.uk review -

Amazon.co.uk Review
"Brian Aldiss calls this 1937 SF classic "the most wonderful novel I have ever read", and its Millennium Masterworks reissue adds admiring remarks by Jorge Luis Borges, Arthur C Clarke, Doris Lessing, Virginia Woolf among others. Olaf Stapledon is better known for Last and First Men (1930), a sweeping history of the future whose early chapters are now embarrassing--but Star Maker leaps straight into a unfurling vision of infinity.

Looking at the starry night from an English hillside, the unnamed narrator is snatched from his earthly body and flung through space at impossible acceleration, soon outstripping light. He visits other stars, sees other worlds and alien races, a gallery of SF marvels in documentary rather than story form. (Some of this now seems over-familiar, however fresh and new in 1937: the book drags a little here.) Fellow disembodied intelligences from the galactic community join our hero, sensing something beyond mere matter and energy:

The felt presence of the Star Maker remained unintelligible, even though it increasingly illuminated the cosmos, like the splendour of the unseen sun at dawn.

But the godlike Star Maker is not exactly God, as we see when the scope expands beyond one mere universe to show an endless cycle of creations, many of them being crude and "immature" products of this experimenter's hand. Further "mature" creations follow, foreshadowing the Ultimate Cosmos whose crystalline perfection is not comforting but terrifying. Star Maker's final unsparing evocation of the deep chill of infinity has even been compared to Dante. --David Langford"

I just read "Illusions, The adventures of a reluctant messiah." :D

Its author is Richard Bach. Its a nice thin book for a change, only 143 pages and only took me two days to read since I used 5 hours a day on it I guess :rolleyes:

Its about a guy who seems to be the author himself, who meets a mechanic. This mechanic can do miracles and they talk about why and how while they travel together. Very nice written, and very intelligent. I would recommend it :) Also very cheap. Usually I pay 2-3 times as muc per book.

Excellent book as are all his a very good author the illusions book is one to reread again and again when the mood takes you :D just read imagine this
by John Lennon's half-sister Julia Baird , interesting insight into his early life .

Paulo Coelhos, "The Witch of Portobello."

An interesting work of fiction from Coelho (with hidden nuggets of wisdom) as the story is narrated by those who knew the central character, and give their differing perspectives on the larger than life Athena.

The story focuses on the re-emergence of the "divine feminine" and gives accounts of the main characters quest for self-knowledge and awareness. For anyone who enjoyed Coelho`s "The Alchemist," you will like this book.

Veteran liberal journalist for almost 40 years, Polly Toynbee, goes and does some of the most dirty and low-paid jobs in Britain, including my own, Hospital Portering. I really resonated with what she said. It's a poignant book and I'm full of admiration for her for writing it.

Not done reading yet, but i am currently reading 'Journey Of Souls' by Michael Newton and can't reccomend it enough. It is confirming alot of things i believed to be true, or sorta just knew knew to be truth. It should be fairly easy to find.

For instance, since we know we are spirit and not body, and therefore conscious outside the body we choose what we want to experiance for an infinite number of reasons. When we 'die' we discover who our soulmates and spiritual guides are from different past lifes...it is totally interesting. Alot of people here should get alot out of it.

Does anyone knows about Michael Cremo's books? I've listened to his vids on youtube, and it was highly interesting. http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=SFkbaKo6sig

What books should I read?
Is it good?
Can he back up his ancient human theory with evidence?

I've read some of this book, but not all of it. I've not met anyone who has read the whole thing because it's an absolute doorstep!:eek: But you can use the index to skip to the most interesting bits.

It's very interesting; it provides evidence that our conventional view of the ancient past is wrong. Humans may be much older than we think; bones and implements have been found in strata millions of years older than the first humans are supposed to have existed.:eek:

The mysterious comet by comyns beaumont about 6 months ago,fascinating take on the effects of cometary movements on earth which go against everything geology and science tell us,so he might not be far off the truth.He explains his theory on volcanoes being meteoric debris,a multitude of subjects including the origins of hurricanes,comets bringing life to earth,his belief that mountain ranges are meteoric debris and not caused by plates shifting.He debunks the drift theory and puts in large amounts of eyewitness accounts through history that if true all back up his ideas perfectly.One of the best books i ever read,he basically says everything we were told comes from below actually comes from above.Got the sun and the serpent and the measure of albion to tuck into now.

Parallel Worlds by Michio Kaku

Particle physics and cosmology, but relatively (no pun intended) easy to understand and serves as a brief history of theoretical physics as well. Covers everything from Newton to Einstein to String/M-theory.

The author is very good at describing complex physical theories in a pictorial, real-world way giving good analogies to help you understand what can be some quite mind bending concepts.

Also touches on the LHC and other similar machines.

However it didn't succeed in changing my opinion that science will only ever help to describe the prison, never how to escape it.

It really makes you feel better about life, some of your worries leave, knowing that you will have other lifetimes to do things that you don't think you will get to do because of whatever reason, and that you will meet your soul mate. And for a reason.

It leaves a lot of questions in my head, like who was I and what did I do to deserve this?:eek::D I think about it all the time, the only solution is to get a PLR done but I'm not sure whom I can trust...

I'm currently taking the longest time ever to read 'The Sleeping Doll' by Jeffrey Deaver. I like to read in bed but I've been so tired of late that I get through a page or two and then fall asleep. It's the most creased book that I own and it's also the newest. :(

The Sleeping Doll (2007)

Jeffery Deaver is back with a dark and multilayered psychological thriller about a vicious killer's escape from a California super-prison and the mysterious and deadly quest he embarks on once he's free.
Making her first appearance in The Cold Moon (2006), special agent Kathryn Dance—a brilliant interrogator and body language expert—stars in The Sleeping Doll, where she and her partners at the California Bureau of Investigation hunt down escaped killer Daniel Pell, a self-styled Charles Manson.
Deaver's most frightening villain to date, Pell is a master of control, who mesmerizes, seduces, and exploits people for his own murderous ends. To track down Pell before he destroys more lives, Kathryn Dance must enlist the help of people from the killer's past: the three women who lived under his sadistic sway in the cult he once headed, as well as the young girl known as The Sleeping Doll, the only survivor of her family's slaughter at Pell's hand.
Filled with masterful plot twists: Jeffery Deaver creates plots with so many twists and turns they could "hide behind a spiral staircase" (People), and The Sleeping Doll has Deaver's trademark twists in spades. It is guaranteed to keep readers guessing right up to the breathless end.

recently read "the orton diaries" - no wonder his lover halliwell stoved in his head, though that wasn't really covered in the film "prick up your ears", which was based on said diaries.

on a completely different theme i've also just finished "the horoscope and david icke", it was alright but a bit garbled.

currently reading "fragile things" by neil gaiman, a collection of short stories. the first few have been okay be they are getting a bit samey, i shall try one of his large stories aka novels next.

and finally as per usual i have a bible companion, a bible, a torah companion, a torah and a koran companion and koran, which i dip into on a regular basis. a companion btw being a sort of "encyclopedia" of said "good" books. oh, and a decent hefty sized dictionary and encyclopedia dictionary, and a historical atlas. wiki is alright but nothing beats sources that are pre-internet- the older the better. it ain't exactly the library of alexandria but hey!

Oriana Fallaci intervista Oriana Fallaci by Oriana Fallaci, Rizzoli International, New York, 2004 (in the Italian language) ISBN code: 88-17-00476-6.

This book by Oriana Fallaci that goes with the title "Oriana Fallaci interviews Oriana Fallaci" is about different issues mostly related to PHILO-ISLAMISM, ANTI-OCCIDENTALISM, EUROPE VS EURABIA, THE NEWLY ADVANCING NAZIFASCISM.
The characters she talks about are mainly the Prime Minister of Italy Silvio Berlusconi, George W. Bush and his administration, UN officials like former Secretary-General Kofi Atta Annan.

I loved this book for 2 main reasons

1) The language used is very rich and the sentences are very well articulated

2) The characteristical anti-islamic philosophy of Oriana is poetically argued.

A good book for wise minds.

A rather spooky one concerns a chap named Spencer who was kicked out of the band in acrimonious circumstances by Smith.

awesome!!!

someone else that has come across Drunvalo's work. His words are very important and this book really (parts 1 and 2) does a world of good towards the "awakening".

i highly suggest reading Drunvalos books :) his newest works "serpent of light 2012 and beyond" and "living in the heart" are great. very enlightening and heart warming.

the last book i read was Michael Tsarions "atlantis, alien visitation and genetic manipulation" which is a relentless book of information after information.

tho i usually do not stick to one book at one time, i like to read a chapter at a time from many books at once. kinda like reading one big multi-informative book.

the last fictional book i read was around 2 years ago called "decipher" by stel pavlou which is an awesome read

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decipher_(novel)

here's a quick storyline description....

Mankind had 12,000 years to crack the code. We have one week left. In a frozen Antarctic wasteland, in the depths of the Amazon River, in a chamber beneath the ruins of the Sphinx, something has surfaced: a cluster of crystalline artifacts composed of an energy source unknown to modern science and inscribed with ancient hieroglyphs. Between them a strange signal courses through the oceans, emanating from a source that has stunned mankind. The lost city of Atlantis has been found buried two miles beneath the ice in Antarctica. Now, two of the world's most powerful armies stand on the brink of war to gain control of the most powerful force known to modern man. But a group of scientists struggling to decode the message of the primeval network fears that it is already too late. Solar flares ignite the surface of the earth, and a worldwide cataclysm of biblical proportions begins. Now as Atlantis rises, so do its secrets - along with a terrifying prophecy that is coming true.

the references in this book are emmense as the writer has taken all his information from facts both historical/ scientific and pieced them together for one hell of a read/ride.

The dance of the dragon An odyssey into earth energies and ancient religion
By Paul Broadhurst and Hamish Miller
This book and it's predecessor the sun and the serpent follow an extroadinary adventure a small group of dowsers undertook over a 10 years period.They followed earth energy lines from the ancient island monastry of skellig off the coast of Ireland through Cornwall out through st michaels mount and across southern europe finishing up in armageddon in israel.The links between ancient pagan worship and later religions are found all the way as the energy lines weave across a caduceus like central axis,where they cross or dissapear underground a dowsable outline of a flower petal or maltese cross can be found these places are always marked as a major place of worship from ancient times,most replaced many times by later religious buildings.A stunningly insightful book that reveals many many ancient secrets about the energy that governs our lives,these are the serpents that man has both lived in harmony with and tried to control with disasterous consequences.Best and most revealing book i've ever read just shading the biggest secret and that turned my whole world upsidedown.

'We' (Penguin Twentieth Century Classics) (Paperback)
by Yevgeny Zamyatin.

In a glass-enclosed city of absolute straight lines, ruled over by the all-powerful 'Benefactor', the citizens of the totalitarian society of OneState live out lives devoid of passion and creativity - until D-503, a mathematician who dreams in numbers, makes a discovery: he has an individual soul. Set in the twenty-sixth century AD, "We" is the classic dystopian novel and was the inspiration for George Orwell's 1984. It was suppressed for many years in Russia and remains a resounding cry for individual freedom, yet is also a powerful, exciting and vivid work of science fiction.

George Orwell gained much inspiration from this book...

My old friend :) I revisit this book every six months or so. LOVE IT!!! A firm favourite that I shall continue to enjoy for many more years.

Product Description
As Oscar Wilde said, doing nothing is hard work. The Protestant work ethic has most of us in its thrall, and the idlers of this world have the odds stacked against them. But here, at last, is a book that can help. From Tom Hodgkinson, editor of the Idler, comes How To Be Idle, an antidote to the work-obsessed culture which puts so many obstacles between ourselves and our dreams. Hodgkinson presents us with a laid-back argument for a new contract between routine and chaos, an argument for experiencing life to the full and living in the moment. Ranging across a host of issues that may affect the modern idler sleep, the world of work, pleasure and hedonism, relationships, bohemian living, revolution he draws on the writings of such well-known apologists for idleness as Dr Johnson, Oscar Wilde, Robert Louis Stevenson and Nietzsche. His message is clear: take control of your life and reclaim your right to be idle.

Synopsis
As Oscar Wilde said, doing nothing is hard work. The idlers of this world have the odds stacked against them, but here, at last, is a book that can help. From Tom Hodgkinson, editor of the Idler, comes How To Be Idle, an antidote to the work-obsessed culture which puts so many obstacles between ourselves and our dreams.

Ranging across a host of issues that may affect the modern idler – sleep, the world of work, pleasure and hedonism, relationships, bohemian living, revolution – Hodgkinson draws on the writings of such well-known apologists for idleness as Dr Johnson, Oscar Wilde, Robert Louis Stevenson and Nietzsche. His message is clear: take control of your life and reclaim your right to be idle.

The author's website and periodical, The Idler is a welcome companion.

Two of my Probe-Buddies have been trying to persuade me to read this book since I started attending the conference in 2006. It’s often described as a “landmark” and “seminal” book regarding the Roswell Incident. This mystery has been done to death a bit over the years any new information on it is very welcome indeed, so I’m glad I made the decision to buy a copy and read it. It presents a perspective on the Roswell Incident that nobody predicted and that I’d never have imagined.

Lieutenant Colonel Philip Corso was born in the United States to an Italian family in 1915 and joined the Army during World War II where he served as an intelligence officer. After the invasion of Italy and the defeat of Mussolini he worked for the chief of police in Rome using cunning and investigations to expose and arrest Fascist and Communist guerrillas. He quickly developed a very streetwise knowledge of the Roman underground and aided the emigration of thousands of homeless refugees from their squalid camps to proper homes in Italy and abroad. During the Korean War Philip was once again drafted into the role of military intelligence; this time to keep an eye on North Korea’s prisoners of war (a subject that spawned the controversial conspiratorial thriller The Manchurian Candidate by Richard Condon). After the war Philip joined President Eisenhower’s National Security Council and then became a top official at the Pentagon. So you see Lt. Col. Philip Corso cannot be pasted with the classic "dreadlocks-and-anorak UFO nut” stereotype. He was a highly-respected and trusted top government official who brushed shoulders with presidents, ministers, senators and chiefs-of-staff.

The book’s main subject matter covers what happened after 1961 when he became an assistant, and very close friend, of General Arthur Trudeau who was head of the Pentagon’s Research and Development office. At the beginning of the book there’s a chapter on Philip’s personal experience of the events at Roswell in July 1947. At the time he was a Major in charge of security at Fort Riley in Kansas and he encounters wreckage from the Roswell flying disk and even the embalmed body of an alien in boxes left stacked in the corner of a storage shed. This part of the book, I strongly suspect, is contrived to embellish the narrative with drama and shock effect. It seems inconceivable that whoever salvaged and processed the Roswell debris would just leave it lying in a corner of an army base, while they popped to the toilet or something, where any passing sentry could nip over and have a look at it. The same goes for the author’s description of the crash site itself which is fairly nonsensical. According to him the local fire brigade turned up and one of the firemen got to see the alien bodies! However the rest of the story is far more convincing, although I’m not 100% sure about all of it. What happens is that Philip is shown a secret filing cabinet by Gen. Trudeau which contained some of the debris of the Roswell crash with objects that look like wafers with silicon threads in them, super-strength fabric and a kind of torch which shines a concentrated beam of light which can cut through metal. Trudeau then gives Philip his mission: take this technology and find a way to introduce it into mainstream science and industry, so that it enters common use. The US authorities believed that it was pointless to try to keep the Roswell technology secret because of the enormous success of Soviet spies in infiltrating the government to the highest level so the only way to ensure its survival is to proverbially “hide it in plain view”. Philip describes how he has secret meetings with the heads of Bell Labs, Westinghouse, General Electric and many other top engineering organizations to present the Roswell technology to them, in a way that made it look as if it had been invented by ordinary human scientists. The wafer structures were actually electronic circuits which led to the “invention” of the transistor and eventually the microchip; a crucial development that allowed computers and other electronic appliances to massively increase in power while being miniaturized a thousand-fold. The torch-like device was actually a laser and hence the modern use of lasers in everything from a CD player to a National ID Card retina scanner. We can thank the Roswell aliens for that, not human pioneers and innovators! The fabric launched the development of “smart cloth” and super-strong designer building materials like Kevlar and Buckminster-Fullerine. I’m fairly dubious about that part of the book. There’s a clear paper trail showing how scientists from this planet can take credit for these inventions and it feels uncomfortable to think of some green bug-eyes monster from Zeta Reticuli taking the limelight instead! The technology from the Roswell craft, and others that have crashed and been covertly salvaged, has indeed been back-engineered by human scientists, but the technology developed has been selfishly hoarded by the government for its own exclusive use. And it’s not mere trifles like CD-players and portable radios; it’s antigravity, esoteric propulsion systems and I can’t begin to speculate on what else!

However the author then changes tack and comes to the most sensible and convincing part of his story: the development of “Star Wars”. According to Philip the history of the Cold War is a farce, a mere sideline that hid the real conflict: the war to defend Earth from invasion by a hostile extraterrestrial civilization. The West and the Soviet Union’s conflict was real at one level, but was also used by both sides to develop weaponry to attack alien spacecraft; a conflict in which both superpowers were secretly allies. The greatest leaders in this covert war were Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev. Their clash over “Star Wars” research was staged for public consumption while the two presidents collaborated to make sure that both their respective nations were armed to the teeth with space-based lasers, missile and particle beam-toting satellites. The book also describes “Project Horizon”, the proposed, but cancelled, plan to put a permanent military base on the moon to defend the Earth from both the Soviets and aliens. I think that the practical problems with the project would have made it impossible with current publicly-available technology, and even sending a handful of people to the moon for a few hours is impossible (See the Moon-landing hoax threads). Corso on the other hand believes that the Apollo missions were real and succeeded as history tells us they did. These scenarioes sounds a lot more likely to be true, not least because it is corroborated by the testimony of others. Before I read the book I had already seen the lectures by Dr Carol Rosin where she relates her last interviews with Werner von Braun. Braun emphatically tells her “Carol, you vill stop ze veaponization of space.” (See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ALLUuvsVkM and http://www.disclose.tv/action/viewvideo/14187/Dr__Carol_Rosin_Interview__Pt_1_12/ ). According to von Braun the threat of hostile aliens is merely a lie, but the idea that these weapons were constructed ultimately to fight ET’s and not Communists, but only a few people would know, matches Philip Corso’s experience. The only difference is that Philip believes the propaganda about hostile aliens and, if he were alive and working today, would become an unknowing accomplice in the fraud that Carol Rosin talks about (Not just Carol either; Ian Crane mentions it.). This is the problem with career-soldiers like Philip Corso; they are invariably naïve when it comes to politics. The ethos of the military is about service, discipline and obedience to authority. I call that being malleable and subservient.

Lt. Col. Philip Corso died in July 1998, one year after the Roswell 50 celebrations, and stuck by his story to his last breath. Towards the end of his life he became very close friends with the Italian UFOlogist and exopolitician Paola Harris (A lady I’ve met). In fact he virtually adopted her! Here’s one of his last interviews: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1944228/the_roswell_ufo_crash_case_one_day_with_col_philip _j_corso/ . The Day After Roswell was panned by most book critics and in fact The Guardian included the book in its list of “Top Ten Literary Hoaxes” (Well here’s what I think of critics: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2008/06/critics.html . In fact I’m thinking of starting a Facebook group called “Fuck the Critics”!) Worst of all, the author’s former Pentagon colleague Senator Storm Thurmond withdrew his foreword and review when he found out about the book's contents. This is unfair when I’m pretty convinced that some of it at least is true and it was denounced purely because of its outlandish nature.

Aliens are real; the Roswell Incident was real. The US government really did salvage a crashed alien spacecraft from another planet, dimension or existence in July 1947. Philip Corso was in some way involved in that. As a defence expert he saw the UFO’s purely as threats, in fact in no part of the book does he ever consider that they might be anything but hostile. “They” in its singular form, is a big word to use for what might be any number of different species with any number of different origins, and probably with many different natures and agendas. Many in the New Age UFO cults like the Atherius Society and the Raelians worship the ET’s as virtual gods and see them as wholly benevolent. They are not all friendly by any means, and they’re certainly not Gods. But it’s equally foolish, as well as making yourself open to manipulation by the politically-motivated Elite, to see them all as enemies.

(Better than the description on the back of the book)
The title essay of George Saunders' The Braindead Megaphone invites the reader to imagine a person at a party with a megaphone. Megaphone Guy might not have much to say, but he's got a megaphone and so he is heard, his utterances setting the agenda for the entire party, the party's collective intelligence (its crowd-like wisdom if you want to put it that way) determined by the intelligence of Megaphone Guy. Before long, it ruins the party because the other guests will stop being guests and become passive "reactors-to-the-Guy".

Now imagine, metaphorically speaking, that the Megaphone Guy is the media and we, the audience of the media, are the party guests. Not all that hard to imagine because the following segment can be seen every hour on every TV news channel in the nation:

Last night on the local news I watched a young reporter standing in front of our mall, obviously freezing his ass off. The essence of his report was: Malls Tend to Get Busier at Christmas! Then he reported the local implications of his investigation: (1) This Also True At Our Mall! (2) When Our Mall More Busy, More Cars Present (3) The More Cars, the Longer it Takes Shoppers to Park! and (shockingly): (4) Yet People Still Are Shopping, Due to, it is Christmas!

It sounded like information, basically. He signed off crisply, nobody back at NewsCenter8 or wherever laughed at him. And across our fair city, people sat there and took it, and I believe that, generally, they weren't laughing at him either. They, like us in our house, were used to it, and consented to the idea that Informing had just occurred. Although what we had been told, we already knew, although it had been told in banal language, revved up with that strange TV news emphasis ("cold WEATHer leads SOME motorISTS to drive less, CARrie!"), we took it and, I would say, it did something to us: made us dumber and more accepting of slop.

One of the worst cases of child abuse in the state of California. I actually read this aloud to someone very special who was listening on the other end. :)

It's a very difficult story to read, but well-worth it. David Pelzer's story is one of sadness, but triumph and is an inspiration to anyone, but especially those who have been victims of child abuse.

Starting reading Jiddu Krishnamurti's' books.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51BEZFZQ96L.jpg

What do other people think of this guy?

He's fantastic! I've quite a few of his books.
If you find him to be a bit wordy and repetitive at times, then you'd probably appreciate Osho more :)

And if you like Krishnamurti you'd definitely love The Book of Mirdad:

http://www.jcilebnc08.com/images/books/mirdad1.jpg

A book truly from another world. Simply magical.
Just finished it, took my time with it, savored it.
It is so rich in meaning, so effective in its message,
And so beautiful in its wording that I never read more than 20 pages at a time.
Best I've ever read, by far. :)

Now reading Manly P. Hall's The Secret Teachings of All Ages.

Hi Cheeney. I've read this book and I have to warn you its not for the faint hearted. I was shocked to the core after reading it and I was angry for a long long time. It will make you sick to think that this actually happened and is continuing to happen to this day. After all that I still would recommend that you read it. Its up to you how far you want to go down the rabbit hole!!!!!

Am reading this book now. This is quite an old book, published in 1981. It is quite informative on a basic level. Reading it, you get a good idea what Freemasonry is, the place it has in UK society and how masons relate to one another and how the lodges operate.

He does mention the 33 levels, but doesn't go much farther that because of his insistence of having corroborated evidence for every statement he makes -which seems very scientific but in my case is not the right approach for finding out the truth about a SECRET society.

Recently, a few books have come out that do go a lot further. These may not be based on physical evidence, but they are based on decades of research anf do tend to confirm a lot of what David has been saying over the years.

Currently reading Sex and Rockets : The Occult World of Jack Parsons By John Carter.

I don't usually go for biographies as there's not many peoples lives that are that interesting but Jack Parsons is definitely an exception!

http://feralhouse.com/images/covers_225x_shadow/sexandrockets_fcvr_225x.jpg

In his short 37 years, John Whiteside “Jack” Parsons embodied at least several different roles in one tormented but glorious life.

By day, Parsons’ unorthodox genius created a solid rocket fuel that helped the Allies win World War II and NASA send spacecraft to the moon. Co-founder of Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the Aerojet Corporation, a lunar crater was named after Parsons.

By night, Parsons called himself The Antichrist when he performed Aleister Crowley’s Thelemic rituals to create a new sort of human being that would finally destroy Christianity.

In a Pasadena mansion, the dark, handsome Parsons hosted soirees for the emerging literature of science fiction, visited by writers such as Robert Heinlein, Ray Bradbury, and none other than L. Ron Hubbard, who later founded the Church of Scientology. With Hubbard playing his “Scribe,” Parsons enacted dark “Babalon” rituals to help foment a new occult age. Jack Parsons died suddenly in a huge, mysterious explosion that even today cannot be definitively explained.

It's a rather hard book to read as was written in the mid 1800's but absolutely packed full of observations, quotes and facts about the origins of religion.

Higgins writes the book from the position of an endless seeker of truth, and therefore has plenty of quotables in response to some of the more orthodox thinkers and the bishops of his time.

A knowledge of Latin, French and etymology in general would be a great help in unlocking many more of the troves of info contained in this book, also a rudimentary knowledge of Astrology, Numerology and Mythology will illuminate certain passages.

Higgins was adament that the original religion of man was of the Black Budda in Asia, named Booda, he compares and collates the attributes and etymological coincidences and puts forward a very convincing hypothesis using, literary and archaeological evidence, together with historical analysis only an initiate could provide.

Read this and take notes and you could be the next creator of a film like Zeitgeist!

It certainly is. And that video's certainly worth watching too, he does give you a very good idea already of the contents of the book.

It is interesting what he reveals what he saw from his place inside the pyramid of control. He doesn't want to call it a conspiracy, he calls it a "corporatocracy". He does seem concerned with how he is perceived by critics in that respect. There are some aspects that we know of he seems to have missed like mind control for one.

Wildwood is a remarkable celebration of the transforming magic of trees, exploring the 'fifth element' of wood as it exists in nature, in our souls, in our culture and our lives. Roger Deakin embarked upon a quest that took him through Britain, across Europe, to Central Asia and Australia, in search of what lies behind man's profound and enduring connection with wood and with trees. Meeting woodlanders of all kinds, he lives in shacks and cabins, travels in search of the wild apple groves of Kazakhstan, goes coppicing in Suffolk, swims beneath the walnut trees of the Haut-Languedoc, and hunts bushplums with Aboriginal women in the outback.

This is a beautifully written soul lifting narrative which I highly recommend to all who read these words. Go on.. give it a go!

Apocalypse 2012 by Lawrence E. Joseph

If you split this book into thirds, the first two should hold your attention, the last third should probably be discarded as utter tripe.

The author uses sciences at the start and slowly goes into pseudo-science, then outright religious fervour.

The point in the book where i almost threw in in the bin:

P.178 of 249:

"The Bible Code provides the most profound scientific evidence yet that the Bible was divinely inspired"

The author is american, the author is a claimed muslim coverted to christianity, (explains it all, really) yet his book slowly became a joke. If you want some sort of understanding of 2012, you'd better to use wikipedia rather than this anti-arab propaganderised garbage.

Anti-arab?

read P.184 "Drain the Middle East Abcess"

Avoid this book unless you think religion in any form is relevant to today's society.

The Unincorporated Man By Dani Kollin, Eytan Kollin

A novel of social transformation in the tradition of Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead and Robert A. Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land, The Unincorporated Man tells of a reborn civilization in which every individual spends many years trying to attain control over his or her own life by obtaining a majority of his or her own shares.

"The Unincorporated Man" is a provocative social/political/economic novel that takes place in the future, after civilization has fallen into complete economic collapse. This reborn civilization is one in which every individual is incorporated at birth, and spends many years trying to attain control over his or her own life by getting a majority of his or her own shares. Life extension has made life very long indeed.

Now the incredible has happened: a billionaire businessman from our time, frozen in secret in the early twenty-first century, is discovered and resurrected, given health and a vigorous younger body. Justin Cord is the only unincorporated man in the world, a true stranger in this strange land. Justin survived because he is tough and smart. He cannot accept only part ownership of himself, even if that places him in conflict with a civilization that extends outside the solar system

It's interesting how Perkins was trained. He was seduced by a woman! This is exactly how double-agents are groomed in espionage.

That intrigued me too. And I was thinking she could have possibly been mind-controlled? She had to divulge a lot of information (photographic memory) and apparently most of it happened between the sheets (can you say "mind-controlled sex slave?).

I wanted to contact Perkins about it to ask about this but of course the suggestion that she was under mind-control and not sleeping with him voluntarily would not be very flattering to his ego.

From what I've heard in his radio interviews I think that's already dawned on him:o;). She may not have been under mind-control herself; she was a controller and engaged him sexually to mind control him. This is what the CIA, KGB etc used to do in the Cold War.

That's what I gathered from his words also..
Although I don't know if this was a case of mind control per se..
What Perkins lacked all his life and thrived for, was offered to him on a silver platter..
Power, greed and lust are tools of mind control, but to me it
seems like Perkins was playing the part of a willíng victim in this one..

Enigma by Robert Harris.
This a novel based on the true story of WW2 code breaking at Bletchley Park.
After a slow start, the book suddenly jumped into action. A very enjoyable read.

About this book

Since 2001, Media Lens has encouraged thousands of readers to challenge the filtered and distorted version of the world provided by major newspapers and broadcasters. The media responses, collected in Newspeak, are an exposé of the arrogance and servility to power of our leading journalists and editors, starring Andrew Marr, Alan Rusbridger, Roger Alton, Jon Snow, Jeremy Bowen and even George Monbiot. Picking up where the highly acclaimed and successful Guardians of Power (2006) left off, Newspeak is packed with forensic media analysis, revealing the lethal bias in "balanced" reporting. Even the "best" UK media - the Guardian, the Independent, Channel 4 News and the BBC - turn out to be cheerleaders for government, business and war. Alongside an A-Z of BBC propaganda and chapters on Iraq and climate change, Newspeak focuses on the demonisation of Iran and Venezuela, the Israel-Palestine conflict, the myth of impartial reporting and the dark art of smearing dissidents.

John Pilger:

"Not since Orwell and Chomsky has perceived reality been so skilfully revealed in the cause of truth."

Noam Chomsky

"Regular critical analysis of the media, filling crucial gaps and correcting the distortions of ideological prisms, has never been more important. Media Lens has performed a major public service by carrying out this task with energy, insight, and care."

Edward S. Herman

"Media Lens is doing an outstanding job of pressing the mainstream media to at least follow their own stated principles and meet their public service obligations. It is fun as well as enlightening to watch their representatives, while sometimes giving straightforward answers to queries, often getting flustered, angry, evasive, and sometimes mistating the facts. This won't change the media very much, but it will make them a bit more careful and honest, and it will help educate the public, which will have its own useful spinoff."

No conspiracy behind the MSM, just well chosen 'journalists' who actually believe what they're writing.
