When We Grow : A Documentary on Cannabis

"When We Grow... This Is What We Can Do" is an educational documentary film by Seth Finegold, presented by Luke Bailey concerning the facts about Cannabis. In this feature length documentary we explore everything there is, from industrial hemp to medicinal cannabis use, from the origins of cannabis prohibition to the legality of growing equipment.

In this film we follow two young filmmakers on a shoestring budget as they delve into the history of the plant, the facts, its many uses and the laws and politics that surround it. Discover what prohibition of Cannabis really means, who it affects, who profits and why marijuana was prohibited in the first place.

The documentary features interviews with a cannabis activist, the owner of a hydroponic grow shop, a black market dealer, the former UK Drugs Policy advisor, Dr. Nutt, professor of neuropsychopharmacology, and a multiple sclerosis patient who would rather die than live without medicinal cannabis.”

Secrets of the Occult : The Magicians Documentary

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Alchemy , Angels 8 Comments

Dan Burstein's "Secrets of the Occult" is an illuminating DVD exploring the controversial and often overlooked link between magic and science. The spellbinding DVD, from Hidden Treasures Productions, includes two one-hour programs, The Magicians and The Scientists, which examine the world of the occult from the Ancient Greek and Egyptian magicians to the cutting edge scientists of today.

“In ancient times there was no separate study known as science. It was the magicians and the alchemists who were doing science. Since the birth of what we call modern science, science and the occult have parted paths,” said Dan Burstein, best-selling author and SECRETS OF THE OCCULT expert. Today however the old relationship between Science and the Occult is experiencing a new surge of popularity in holistic philosophy and New Age beliefs. “Serious physicists are contemplating time travel and parallel universes. We’re going to get some very big breakthroughs through science, but some of them may come from science looking at what some might call the occult,” adds Burstein.

From Harry Potter and Eragon to The Da Vinci Code and The Prestige, today’s pop culture is finding more and more of its inspiration in the occult. The growing interest in occultism’s underlining principles and beliefs has even spawned a new sub-genre, called “enlightainment,” which blends life advice and the quest for greater truth with elements of entertainment. The quantum physics inspired, part narrative-part documentary film What the Bleep Do We Know!? was the first surprise hit of this category. In recent months, The Secret, a self-help DVD that reveals the hidden wisdom purportedly known to such thinkers as Plato and Albert Einstein, has become a top-seller on Amazon.com. “The merging of ‘magic’ and contemporary science is blurring the lines between old and new,” said Dan Gurlitz, General Manager of KOCH Vision. “SECRETS OF THE OCCULT investigates this transformation, presenting compelling fuel for thought and discussion.”

While clairvoyant Madame Helena Blavatsky and British occultist Aleister Crowley became forerunners of many new age ideals only later to be condemned, innovators such as Galileo, Einstein and Freud, whose advances are considered scientific in nature, were also fascinated with the occult. “Don’t forget, Sir Isaac Newton, the ‘father of modern science’ in many people’s eyes, is also considered the ‘last of the great magicians.’ He was fascinated with alchemy and the occult and spent much of his life trying to develop a scientific understanding of occult beliefs,” observes Burstein.

This sort of special knowledge is what the Secrets of… series is committed to uncovering. The previous two documentaries in the series, SECRETS OF MARY MAGDALENE and SECRETS OF ANGELS, DEMONS & MASONS, also explore the crossroads between spirituality, religion and science.

Are Humans Designed To Eat Meat ?

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Consciousness , Creation 4 Comments

We live in a world which is has been deeply conditioned, where we blindly accept general trends without even attempting to find out for ourselves the hows and the whys of our reality. So we easily buy into others ideas, projected onto the mass consciousness.

We come into this world and acquire all sorts of ideas and notions based on this "consensus reality" we hold dear as our dogma, not realizing the role of the individual and collective in manifesting the reality we experience. One of these ideas is that humans are omnivores, hence eating meat is natural for us.

After having seen this brilliant documentary called "Supercharge Me!" (which is all about the Raw Food Diet and it's health benefits) and reading a couple of articles on the subject, I am left with no doubt in my mind that avoiding eating meat is definitely a healthier choice ! There are numerous compelling facts presented in these articles which cite all the reasons why we weren't designed to eat meat ...

The prominent Swedish scientist Karl von Linne states, "Man's structure, external and internal, compared with that of the other animals, shows that fruit and succulent vegetables constitute his natural food." The points below compare the anatomy of man with that of carnivorous and herbivorous animals. When you look at the comparison between herbivores and humans, we compare much more closely to herbivores than meat eating animals. Humans are clearly not designed to digest and ingest meat.

Meat-eaters: have claws
Herbivores: no claws
Humans: no claws

Meat-eaters: have no skin pores and perspire through the tongue
Herbivores: perspire through skin pores
Humans: perspire through skin pores

Meat-eaters: have sharp front teeth for tearing, with no flat molar teeth for grinding
Herbivores: no sharp front teeth, but flat rear molars for grinding
Humans: no sharp front teeth, but flat rear molars for grinding

Meat-eaters: have intestinal tract that is only 3 times their body length so that rapidly decaying meat can pass through quickly
Herbivores: have intestinal tract 10-12 times their body length.
Humans: have intestinal tract 10-12 times their body length.

Meat-eaters: have strong hydrochloric acid in stomach to digest meat
Herbivores: have stomach acid that is 20 times weaker than that of a meat-eater
Humans: have stomach acid that is 20 times weaker than that of a meat-eater

Meat-eaters: salivary glands in mouth not needed to pre-digest grains and fruits.
Herbivores: well-developed salivary glands which are necessary to pre-digest grains and fruits
Humans: well-developed salivary glands, which are necessary to pre-digest, grains and fruits

Meat-eaters: have acid saliva with no enzyme ptyalin to pre-digest grains
Herbivores: have alkaline saliva with ptyalin to pre-digest grains
Humans: have alkaline saliva with ptyalin to pre-digest grains

Fractals : Hunting The Hidden Dimension

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Dimensions , Documentaries 0 Comments

We may not know it, but fractals, like the air we breathe, are all around us. Their irregular, repeating shapes are found in cloud formations and tree limbs, in stalks of broccoli and craggy mountain ranges, even in the rhythm of the human heart. In this documentary film, NOVA takes viewers on a fascinating quest with a group of maverick mathematicians determined to decipher the rules that govern fractal geometry.

For centuries, fractal-like irregular shapes were considered beyond the boundaries of mathematical understanding. Now, mathematicians have finally begun mapping this uncharted territory. Their remarkable findings are deepening our understanding of nature and stimulating a new wave of scientific, medical, and artistic innovation stretching from the ecology of the rain forest to fashion design. The documentary highlights a host of filmmakers, fashion designers, physicians, and researchers who are using fractal geometry to innovate and inspire.

Produced and directed by Emmy and Peabody Award winning filmmakers Michael Schwarz and Bill Jersey, the documentary weaves cutting edge research from the front lines of science into a compelling mathematical detective story. The film introduces a number of distinguished individuals who have used fractal geometry to transform their fields, like Loren Carpenter, who created the first completely computer-generated sequence in a movie.

(You can also watch this documentary in shorter parts on YouTube here.)

In the late 1970s, Carpenter stumbled across the work of a little-known mathematician, Benoit Mandelbrot, who coined the word "fractal," from the Latin word fractus, meaning irregular or broken up. Based on Mandelbrot's mathematical descriptions of fractals in nature, Carpenter was able to create detailed computer simulations of organic forms in a way that had never before been possible. The groundbreaking computer generated sequence Carpenter produced in 1980 for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan marked a milestone in movie history, and owed its creation to fractal geometry.

It took a maverick with a hard-won aversion to authority to stand up to the conventional wisdom that nature stood outside the bounds of mathematics. Through interviews and personal artifacts, Mandelbrot shares the story of his struggle to survive as a Jewish teenager in Nazi-occupied France, his journey to America, and his lifelong fascination with a corps of European mathematicians whose explorations of the so called "mathematical monsters" laid the groundwork for his own discoveries. [Read an interview with Mandelbrot, illustrated with stunning fractal images.]

Filmmaker Bill Jersey believes Mandelbrot's approach to fractals might ultimately become as significant as the cracking of the genetic code. "As fractals continue to revolutionize the way scientists develop theories and conduct research, the inevitable results will be innovations that dramatically change health care, environmental policy, design, and technology," Jersey says.

In 1980, Mandelbrot published a mesmerizing image known as the Mandelbrot set. (To explore the set, go to A Sense of Scale.) The intricate, mysterious beauty of this image, which was generated by a single mathematical function, won him acclaim from an unexpected quarter in the world of popular culture. But fractals are more than pretty pictures. Almost all living things distribute nutrients through their bodies via branching networks, such as systems of blood vessels, that obey the rules of fractal geometry.

In Toronto, physicist Peter Burns is making a mathematical model of blood vessels to find ways to diagnose cancer earlier than is now possible. In Boston, cardiologist Ary Goldberger has discovered that, contrary to centuries of belief, a healthy human heartbeat does not have an even pattern like a metronome but rather a jagged, variable fractal pattern. This discovery that may help doctors diagnose cardiac disease before damage is done.

"This film is about looking at the world around us in a completely different way," says producer Michael Schwarz. "If you pay attention, you can see that fractals appear throughout nature. But until Benoit Mandelbrot came along, no one really understood what was there all along."

Ancient Aliens Season 2 Epi 5 : Aliens & The Third Reich

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Aliens , Ancient Aliens 1 Comments

If ancient aliens visited Earth in the remote past, could they have given us advanced technology, passed down through history?

And could this technology have helped the Third Reich build mysterious weapons and crafts far beyond the limits of 20th century science?

During World War II, there were reports that the Germans built an operational flying saucer, known as the Hanebu, which was said to use mythical technology found in ancient Indian texts.

Another craft was rumored to have been constructed with the help of psychics and mediums who claimed to have received detailed blueprints from extraterrestrial beings. Is it possible Hitler's quest for world domination was aided and abetted by ancient extraterrestrial technology that was rediscovered? And could the allegedly rebuilt alien devices developed in Germany have played a role in America's ability to land a man on the moon?

The Battle of Los Angeles : A Jose Escamilla Film

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Aliens , Documentaries 1 Comments

The Battle of Los Angeles is a documentary film by Jose Escamilla about what he calls, the single most heavily documented UFO Case in the history of UFOs.

On February 25, 1942, only eleven weeks after the unforgettable attack on Pearl Harbor, an unidentified aircraft appeared in the sky above Culver City, California. Just before 2:30 a.m., military personnel launched an assault on the hovering object, firing more than 14,000 rounds of anti-aircraft artillery into the air. The onslaught was witnessed by more than one million people.

After more than 90 minutes of battle, the unscathed craft simply disappeared over the Pacific Ocean. It was never seen again, and this event was destined to become forgotten history… until now.

Join the remaining eyewitnesses as they recount their experiences, complete with dramatic recreations, photographs, and documentation of that mystifying night. Witness a new form of documentary film making, from the mind of Jose Escamilla. You deserve to know the truth.

Jose Escamilla's documentary film is to be released soon around the same time as two other Hollywood films with similar titles also about "The Battle of Los Angeles", however with a false, misleading message of an alien invasion.

On March 11, 2011, and March 15, 2011, "Battle: Los Angeles", a 100 million dollar film, and Battle of Los Angeles, which is being called a “mockbuster” film were released.

Hollywood Films still foolishly continue with their dis-info campaign making the ET presence look like an alien invasion despite the fact that these advanced civilizations have never gone on the offensive even if they could after being fired at and chased by air force jets.

Anyone who knows a little about the Battle of Los Angeles would ask the question, why would the military fire at a weather balloon (As per the official statement) for an hour and a half without being able to bring it down ! hmmm ... :)

The Cover Up is over ... It's time to wake up !

Evidence of Human Aura & Energy Fields

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Collective Consciousness , Consciousness 0 Comments

A Russian scientist is trying to convince people they can change the world simply by using their own energy. He says that thinking in a certain way can have a positive or negative effect on the surrounding environment.

"We are developing the idea that our consciousness is part of the material world and that with our consciousness we can directly influence our world," said Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, a professor of physics at St. Petersburg State Technical University. To bridge our understanding of the unseen world of energy, scientific experiments are being carried out using a technique called bioelectrophotography, based on the fact that we are constantly emitting energy, which was also discovered by Dr. Bruce Lipton in his work on Epigenetics. Bioelectrophotography aims to capture these energy fields seen as a light around the body or what some people would call your aura.

My Mum Talks To Aliens Documentary

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Aliens , Documentaries 1 Comments

This gripping documentary titled "My Mum Talks To Aliens" follows a mother and son on a journey of discovery, as they travel the country in pursuit of solid evidence of an extraterrestrial presence here on Earth.

In My Mum Talks to Aliens there is one issue that is driving a wedge between mother and son - Mary and Chris Rodwell - the existence of extraterrestrial life. Chris is a self-confessed alien sceptic, whilst his mum Mary is a leading global authority on the subject. But her beliefs have come at a cost, her husband left and it is now impacting her relationship with Chris.

Mary attempts to convince and educate her son, and thus the world about aliens. She introduces her son to her clients who have had first-hand alien abduction experiences, including one who claims to have had sexual intercourse with an extraterrestrial being. She reveals shockingly clear, never-seen-before footage of UFOs, and visits acclaimed Astrophysicist, Ragbir Bhatal from the University of Western Sydney. Bhatal is one of only three people in the world whose job it is to scan the skies for alien communications.

Mary is affectionately known as Australia’s “Alien Lady” and is one of the World’s most sought after and respected experts on all things to do with the UFO phenomena. A former midwife and nurse, grief counsellor and clinical hypnotherapist, she founded ACERN (Australian Close Encounter Resource Network) in 1997. The organisation has now grown to be the largest of its kind specialising in helping alien abduction victims’ deal with their traumas with the support of qualified medical doctors, psychologists and therapists.

To date, Mary’s ACERN has supported some 1,600 cases of ET encounters worldwide from countries including the USA, Japan and Russia. Mary says, “For those with encounter experiences, my work offers them validation and an understanding in their own personal journey.”

A compelling raconteur with controversial subject matter, Mary has previously been invited to speak at Oxford University in England as well as at UFO symposiums in Hong Kong, USA, UK, Canada, Ireland and New Zealand. In 2006, she joined the Former Canadian Defence Minister, Paul Hellyer at the World Peace Conference in Hawaii to call for greater understanding of the UFO phenomena and compile an historic mission statement on Exopolitics, the political implications of an extraterrestrial presence.

Mary maybe one of the world’s leading alien abduction councillors, and she maybe in demand all over the world for her expert extraterrestrial advice, but can she convince her own son about her out-of-this-world beliefs, and save her most precious relationship of all? To find out tune into My Mum Talks To Aliens only on SBS on Tuesday 30 November at 8.30pm.

My Mum Talks To Aliens is part of SBS’s Australian Documentary Season, Secrets and Lives. The captivating season is a snapshot of Australian life that is guaranteed not to be seen anywhere else on television. The compelling, at times provocative season includes six new documentaries taking viewers into a range of extraordinary worlds in contemporary Australia and, through the incredible characters that inhabit each documentary, explores themes that are inspiring and thought-provoking.

“I believe these advanced intelligences have been

visiting this planet since the dawn of time, and I believe

they’re here to assist evolution to another level.”

John Mack ~ Experiencers : UFO/ET Documentary

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Aliens , Documentaries 0 Comments

Stéphane Allix' documentary film "Experiencers" features several experiencers who had worked with Dr. John E. Mack who appears only briefly in this film, his death having occurred soon after production began.

More substantial are visits to the New England countryside with experiencers, including one couple who videotaped an unidentified flying object hovering above a lake a few hours before they were abducted from their lakeside cottage. Also in this film, is the New York artist and alien encounter investigator Budd Hopkins.

Although this documentary is similar to other documentaries commonly seen on American cable television, it has a more leisurely pace and gives more time for the experiencers to explain themselves than is commonly granted in US productions. One of the best interviews in the program is not with an experiencer at all, but rather with the husband of an experiencer, who matter-of-factly explains how his family has come to terms with his wife's experiences.
