Episode 16.5 Show Notes

This week is a Sancho-cast, so you know it's gonna be. . .weird?

Big thanks right away to our listener contributions:

Memetic Alchemy came up first with his song, "Empty in Form". Then later on, we get to hear a little bit from the Are You The Farmer? non-collective, and their song entitled, "Psychedelic Tourism". Thanks guys! The smashcasts are all about the listeners contributions, so keep them coming people!

Sancho put together a couple smashups, the first being some clips from Stormy Weather podcast episode #23, with backing music from TRS-80. The second one was found after the Hippie episode #9 and is from Chronicles of the Psychonautilus podcast Expedition 11 part two, with some crazy Indian music playing in the background. I just love Indian music, don't you? Tabla, what!?!?!?

Big ups to X-tina for giving me an opportunity to be a director, and for hidden inspiration.

Data Loading. . .please hold.

Episode 16.0 Show Notes

I think this episode is all about the discussion, so the notes are gonna be sparse. . .

You know, Drunvalo Melchizidek(who some claim to be a fraud like Carlos Castaneda) talks about our species going through a spiritual evolution from a Unity Consciousness without Ego, through a Polarity Consciousness which is characteristic of this world, and we're moving steadily towards a Higher Consciousness that incorporates the Unity aspects of reality, with the polarized, individualistic aspects of reality. Aleister Crowley talked about the idea of us being now in the Aeon of Horus, the Son(child). Basically in his cosmology, you have Nuit, the Mother/Feminine/Unity aspect of reality. Then there is Hadit, the point, the individual perspective, representing the Father/Masculine/Polarity consciouesness. And then, there is Horus, the Son/Child, and that is the interplay of Nuit & Hadit. . .Infinite possibilties/points/combinations. And that is where we are at, so it seems, at this point in our evolution, our timeline. We're "coming to"" in the Aeon of Horus, the "New Age"(what a horrible name!), or what Rudolf Steiner calls the "fifth Post-Atlantean epoch".

Trippy.

Chaos is everywhere, and yet, order prevails. Always. But who's order? What's order!?!?!? That is the crux of the biscuit, isn't it? We don't know exactly what the fuck is going down, but it's easy to see that we're changing. We're all changing, and faster. Are Rupert Sheldrake's Morphogenetic Fields being altered and exercised at such a quick pace, do to an upshot in both the population and access to information, that we might just be in the exact center of a cyclone of evolution that even the most informed and tuned in of the population have no evidence of reasonable control? They say that chaos is a lack of order, a lack of control, but it seems that such a viewpoint is off, it's wrong. Chaos is both Order and Control, but not from the view of a single point, it comes from the view of the Totality. That is that, that is this, this is this, Thou Art That. Outside in, inside changing out, coming back up again and going back down in. Over and over. Things get sweaty.

Repeat, often.
