Given the recent scandal with regard to massive worldwide surveillance by US intelligence agencies, notably the NSA and UK's GCHQ including the monitoring of the phone conversations of 35 world leaders particularly German Chancellor Merkel, the reader will find the following short YouTube video very revealing.
Former Canadian Defence Minister Paul Hellyer asserts that the White House has lost control of huge swathes of strategic government sectors. To some this might come as a shocking revelation. To others this will be seen as just another ridiculous conspiracy theory. Others will have known this for a long time.

However, the conspiracy theorists have strong evidence on their side. We have a clear warning of the dangers of an over-powerful industrial military complex from one of America's most respected Presidents, notably General Eisenhower and the revelation of a "monolitic and ruthless conspiracy" from another great President, John F Kenney.
Those who believe that the massive US surveillance scandal is principally about spying are being deceived. It is not. It is about an inexcusable abuse of power, unwarranted secrecy and non-compliance with the law. It is not just about gathering information on potential terrorist threats. It is far more about gathering any and all information on everybody and everything and having a monopoly over its control. The President, by his own admission was not informed that Chancellor Merkel's phone was being monitored even though he has had several one to one meetings with her! If he is being kept out of the loop on such basic matters as spying on world leaders, what else is he not being told?
Despite all this intelligence gathering, the security services were not able to prevent the Boston bombing or the Nairobi Westgate terror atrack to mention but two. Probably too busy listening to Merkel's telephone calls! There is much more that can be said about these particular attacks but that is not what this article is about. It is about the inevitable abuses of power that always occurs and always will occur when power is cloaked in secrecy and let no one convince you otherwise. The nature of secret operations means it is far more difficult to monitor and hold to account those agents and activities that are hidden from view. It equally negates transparency.
This is really what the Snowden revelations are about. It is about abuse of power and our right to decide what our governments do or dont do in our name. Before Snowden we really did not know the extent of these nefarious activities. That right to know had been withdrawn arbitrarily and without our knowledge and far less, our consent. That is what this hoopla is really all about and its of vital importance we do not lose sight of it as it impinges on our democratic rights, our freedoms, our privacy and above all our right to hold our representatives to account!
Unwittingly, Snowdens's revelations have also highlighted a more disturbing question! Who is running America? How much does the President really know? Who is pulling the strings?

Sensory detection based on electrical impulses
Came across this (see link) and thought it relevant to more understanding on how energy in some form is everything.
"Yes, sensory detection really is based on electrical impulses. In essence, a stimulus (be it light photons, molecules in food or whatever) causes a conformational change in a receptor protein, either directly or indirectly. This change in structure starts off a cascade of signalling molecules inside the cell that eventually lead to changes in the relative concentrations of potassium and sodium ions inside and outside the nerve cell. As potassium and sodium have an electrical charge, this causes a change in the electrical potential of the cell, hence it is described as an electrical signal. Hopefully that makes some sense".

Science in a corner
I believe science has backed itself into a corner because a) it is and always has been obsessed with a beginning and end rationale to everything when in fact simple logic says there is no such thing as a beginning or end to anything and b) it has never adequately factored in the impact of energy on energy.
Since energy exists and cannot emerge from a state devoid of anything it is by definition eternal and infinite. No energy, no anything. Thus everything that is, has emerged from this source of primal eternal energy and is energy in infinite forms.
Every energy form transmits frequencies and receives them and is thus reactive to every other energy form because input and output are constantly changing thus altering the mean average frequency of any given energy form constantly.
Since everything is eternal energy nothing is born and nothing dies but everything transforms all of the time from and to differing vibrational states.
If this reasoning is correct the birth and death of stars like any energy
form is an illusion created by energy in transformation. If one brings everything back to energy, everything appears to make sense including the "paranormal" but as soon as one interprets energy as an entity in its own right, nothing makes sense because it becomes disconnected in the mind from what it actually is, energy.
This interpretation of everything as energy could even explain the concept of a soul. When the biological body breaks down (dies) the energy that gave it function and which resonated at it's own unique combination of frequencies simply continues in a different form. If energy is indestructible this seems logical. This might well be the process that religions regard as the soul leaving the body.
Because religious bodies regard the soul as an entity unlinked to energy, they have never been able to understand how this happens but if one thinks of the soul as energy it makes a lot more sense.
This concept of energy as everything could explain climate change because the effects of solar/cosmic energy activity would naturally impact on our geology and that of all planets in the cosmos since all energy forms are connected to all other energy forms. This in fact appears to be what is happening as cosmologists have noted changes on other planets in our solar system.
Al Gore et al, like science in general has made the huge mistake of looking at Earth as an entity in isolation from the cosmos and not an energy form witin the cosmos. The incoming energy from the cosmos must have a far higher impact on Earth than our activities on Earth and this is why he is at best only partly right and why we are seeing more and more extreme geological events.

Creation - The Game (An Alien Perspective)
According to Airl the alien in the book Roswell - Alien Interview, the IS-BEs (eternal spirit forms) play games to relieve their boredom. According to the book the IS-BEs created their own individual holographic universes to play with. Over time they came together and decided to combine their work and create a physical objective universe, a real live game, as an experiment.
We also design and play many games to keep ourselves amused. More and more of these are computer games, many of which are largely based on plots involving domination usually through violent means of diverse imaginary enemies. It keeps players amused for hours at a time. I must admit that I have on occasion played them myself and enjoyed them.
Fortunately, when we kill our inanimate enemies in these games nobody really gets hurt. The only damage done is to the brain of the player which could be much more constructively employed for the betterment of him or herself and humanity as a whole. For some reason the makers of these games just dont understand the damage they are doing. Worse still, perhaps they prefer that we remain dumbed down, slaves to their money making products. They clearly do not understand the principles of connectivity nor the value and rewards of putting minds to constructive use. They could be helping solve the scandal of poverty, famine, pollution, the energy dilemna, war and saving the planet that houses us at the same time. When we go down, so do they! They don't seem to understand this simple truth.
Real life games however, played by politicians, dictators, scientists and corporations are far more deadly. These power games can and do cause real suffering and misery as each pursues their own selfish materialistic agendas at the expense of the majority of people on Earth and all it's passengers.
So was/is this universe nothing more than an IS-BE "experiment" and if it is, where does God feature in it? Aril said there is no such thing as a monolithic God. All IS-BEs she says, are creators including us, apparently. She claimed that she was part of an empire called the Domain who she asserted were top galactic dog. The Domain though benign had no particular empathy towards us but made it clear that Earth was theirs and anyone contesting this would be summarily dealt with, so not entirely benign then!
Now comes the $64,000 question! Where and how did the concept of "divinity" come into all this? On the face of it, it seems there is no such thing. However, could it be that "playing" in a physical universe rather than a holographic one was the true beginning of a process leading to a state of awareness of divine enlightenment? The galactics allude in their channeling, to their innocence of any knowledge of evil or consequence.
According to them, the creation of the universe was designed to create only joy. They had no experience of any other state. Their holographic designs were joyous creations that enhanced their state of being. They would have been works of art painted into a blank canvas of opaque infinity. However, they were not real. It was their version of going to the movies only unlike Hollywood their plots were innocent and beautiful. The holographs were not living things, just pictures that gave their creaters an abstract sense of pleasure. They could be created or deleted without consequence.
In the same way when we design and play our computer games we get a form of abstract pleasure from it because we know its not real. Its just a game. We feel no "real" empathy with the fictional figures we delight in killing. Its just a score, not a death. Actions whether negative or positive have no "real" consequences. There's no blood, no grieving relatives, no revenge and no pain.
However, in a physical world there is blood, death, grieving, revenge and so on. We are affected by consequences. Hunger, misery, greed, joy, love all have physical consequences but it seems that these galactic beings/forms had no comprehension of this which is not surprising, all things considered. No surprise either then, that the "experiment" went awry.
Suddenly they were confronted literally by the realities of objective physicality. Suddenly they began experiencing the consequences of action and reaction of which they apparently had little or no concept. They entered the university of life where all states of being exist at different vibrational levels.
This was not how it was supposed to be. What to do? They became trapped in a real game of flesh and blood life. They began competing, arguing and fighting amongst themselves in the same way as we have done for thousands of years. In the long passage of time they begun to realise the only way to overcome strife and conflict was through the application of love and more than that, survival depended on it.
If this is how it happened then this was the moment physical enlightenment began and the moment that the worth of the divine love from which they emerged, found value and comprehension. As above, so below. We too are coming to that point.
Furthermore, love brings huge rewards in terms of self fulfilment resulting ultimately in a state of total bliss. There can be no better outcome to any game. It is the ultimate result and thus becomes the ultimate objective of a successful outcome to the
ultimate game.
However, before we can consider this as logical or feasible account of reality we must
ask and answer the question, where did IS-BEs come from? How were they created and what or who created them? There can only be one possible answer. They emerged from the energy that seperates everything from nothing.
How is this possible? I dont know but if they exist they could not have come from anywhere else. Perhaps they evolved/emerged from a combination of energy waves resonating at specific frequencies. There is no other way since energy is everything and everything is energy. We know frequencies are sounds and that they shape matter. This must be at the heart of creation. This must also be how inanimate matter was transformed into animate matter. It is also how the nature of animate matter is transformed from one state to another.
If God exists and it was he/she/it/they that designed the universe this entity must
have been a consequence of eternal existence rather than it's creator. Unless there is a physics we are unaware of, energy in some form, is without doubt the only possible substance separating everything from nothing. No energy, no anything. The big question, the only question, is what is/was the nature of this energy.
What we can say with some certainty is that because energy cannot emerge from a state devoid of anything, it is eternal and infinite. If this primal energy was resonating at the frequency of pure love, then that has to be the source of divine love, that we call God and from which everything emerged, including possibly the wonderfully innocent but flawed IS-BEs who not understanding or having experienced any other state of being, did not understand the difference between play and reality! Only when one has experienced opposite states can one understand the state in which one exists. This is the meaning of enlightenment and the purpose of the journey.
When Adam ate of the apple of knowledge, he and Eve lost their innocence and moved into the flesh and blood game of life. Their's is the story of the IS-BEs.

Theory of God and creation
We and everything in the Universe are a manifestation of something. We call this something God for reasons that are unclear since no one knows who or what God is or how he/she/it came into being. So suggesting we need only look into our hearts to find the something which we call God sounds like gobbledygook to many. However, if we are a manifestation of "God's" essence then of course by looking at and into ourselves we see a part of that essence. I leave you with the following thoughts:
It is clear that a state of nothing is an impossibility since there is SOMETHING which could not emerge from a state of nothing. Therefore this SOMETHING is by definition an eternal state. The question is what is the SOMETHING? The answer is energy. Nothing can exist let alone evolve without it. Energy is the primal eternal force that is the difference between nothing and something.
This primal eternal energy must therefore be the source of all existence. Everything in the objective physical and invisible universe is of or originates from it and is therefore "genetically" connected to it, so to speak.
Energy resonates frequencies of which there are an infinite number. Since this eternal energy source exists in infinity, energy is also infinite. Thus this primal eternal energy = existence = life = energy = life ad infinitum. The universe and everything in it is an energy form resonating at differing frequencies. All energy forms are both receivers and transmitters of energy waves at various frequencies. Love is an energy with a specific frequency as are all thoughts.
To transform these frequencies into a physical image/sound requires that we are tuned in to those channels. Thus the universe is a combination of countless fluctuating frequencies. Our reality is determined by the input/output of all incoming and outgoing frequencies. The more we send out energy waves of love the more we change our reality for the better and visa versa. This is how and why we are joint creators of our own reality.
The Russian physicist Dr. Korotkov's GVD photographic energy detecting technology has already demonstrated that the energy of plants rises or diminishes on detecting the intent of persons in their vicinity. The intent, be it positive or negative is transmitted as energy waves resonating a frequency which the plant is able to detect. There can be no other rational explanation. It demonstrates perfectly the connectivity of one energy form with another.
This is where science and spirituality join. The Bible tells us that God is love. Love is an energy form. A self sustaining creation can only be built on love or the wave energy of love. One built on any other energy form would inevitably self destruct since it would contain elements of conflict.
It is said that in "the beginning was the word and the word was with God". In a sense this theory confirms this except the word is in fact a sound wave frequency of the emotion of "love" and "love" is the word we give this sound wave. Thus one might say the "God energy" is truly love from which everything has emerged. God is the energy of creation, one might say. Since everything emerges from this primal energy, everything is related and thus connected to it.
It is clear that a state of nothing is an impossibility since there is SOMETHING which could not emerge from a state of nothing. Therefore this SOMETHING is by definition an eternal state. The question is what is the SOMETHING? The answer is energy. Nothing can exist let alone evolve without it. Energy is the primal eternal force that is the difference between nothing and something.

The big questions answered.
Here is the most extraordinary account of a near death experience I have ever read. If you want to know the answers to all your questions about life, death, the universe and much more, take some time to read this incredible account. It is truly astounding.

More thoughts on consciousness
Many experiments have been carried out that indicate plant consciousness. It has also been observed in water. This suggests that everything possesses consciousness at some level which in turn indicates that the entire universe is a conscious entity. Indeed I do not see how it could function without a connective and/or collective consciousness.
Everything derives from energy. We are energy. Energy is the source of creation. The laws of physics are what give order to the universe. These laws are in-built into the sub-atomic particles that make up the universe. These particles must therefore contain consciousness.

Searching for the nature of God
The next big question that needs resolving is the nature or form of the creator. I do not pretend to know who or what God is. I claim only to have reflected upon the question deeply for almost longer than I care to remember. The following are therefore merely my reflections in written form.
The image of a wise old man with a white beard in the sky is of a God made in our image. That is highly improbable as as I am sure most would agree. Therefore if there is a God we must search for a more plausible understanding that somehow ties in with the reality we perceive and our limited understanding of science as well as the insights of ancient and modern mystics.
In brief the only answer I can come up with is that the universe and everything in it is derived from a source of energy. Without it nothing would exist. I have to believe if there were a God he/she/it would have to be in some way, shape or form a source of energy, perhaps the source of energy from which everything emerged. If this were so this source or force would have to be conscious and intelligent, perhaps the source of all consciousness. This energy the source of consciousness would be the driving force of everything both visible and invisible. From it would emerge all the forces that combine to create the visible and invisible universe. Einstein said that if there are laws (of physics) then logically there must be a law maker. These laws are encoded in the molecules that make up the universe and everything in it.
The universe is itself illusory. The molecules from which everything is made are 99% empty space yet the objects we see appear solid. Scientists tell us that if the solid matter contained in every human on Earth were collected and combined it would be no larger than a sugar cube! These are mind boggling facts that are almost beyond our comprehension. In essence we see objectivity where in reality there is only empty space. It's almost as though someone or something has painted a picture on a blank canvas; only the canvas is emptiness. I have never seen a painting materialise out of thin air. A painting requires an artist and his paints. Furthermore the artist must possess a consciousness that enables him or her to envisage the image he wishes to create. Above all he needs energy to undertake his task. This is I think a good analogy because it encompasses the necessary functions of the creative process.
For it to work though we need some evidence of the nature of consciousness. What is it? Is it a function of the mind or is it an external force that is visibly imbued in the fabric of the universe itself? To try and answer this question I have read up on experiments that indicate that plants and water possess consciousness. Plants, it is claimed have a higher level of conscious than some lower levels of insects and animals. Like plants, water apparently responds consciously to positive and negative frequency stimulation as do we humans. Interestingly we are ourselves largely composed of water as are plants. If this is true then there is a strong possibility we will discover consciousness at some level everywhere and in everything in the universe. Indeed the entire universe may well be a conscious entity. It is therefore not beyond the bounds of reason that the universe is a manifestation of consciousness and that consciousness is what we call God. As we are discovering, everything appears to be interconnected to everything else. This interconnection indicates that there is no objective separation of galaxies planets, plants or other elements such as water or ourselves. In which case the whole universe is an active and reactive single conscious entity where everything is connected to everything else.
In other word the entire universe is the manifestation of it's creator, the entity or force we call "God".
This explanation of the nature and form of God is I believe one that is believable. It is that of the artist, the grand designer rather than one occupied by the petty detail of our personal lives. It is nevertheless no less comforting because I do believe the words, "God is love" is at the heart of this consciousness. There is a good argument to be made for this hypothesis but that must be for another time. Suffice it to say that when one acts out of love the world becomes a much brighter place. There is enormous comfort and hope in this vision of God. If we follow the path of enlightened love we can raise our levels of consciousness and become part of the blissful and boundless joy that such a state can bring. If not we walk blindly and joylessly on a path of darkness. These appear to be self evident, fundamental, eternal and inescapable truths, the only real truths that really exist. This is the truth of God in my humble view.
Lastly, I have never believed that the universe spontaneously self combusted into existence from a state of nothingness. A state of nothingness is a contradiction in terms. If it existed it would be something. It is therefore an impossibllity. This being the case there can never have been a beginning nor can there be an ending. There is just an eternal state of being and this state of being is in constant evolution. This concept defies the understanding of science which must have a beginning and an end to everything and that is why science continually finds itself going down blind alleys. They have as yet failed to understand that if God exists he/she/it is the science they study. If this is right, God is the ultimate law maker, the artist par excellence.
The image of a wise old man with a white beard in the sky is of a God made in our image. That is highly improbable as as I am sure most would agree. Therefore if there is a God we must search for a more plausible understanding that somehow ties in with the reality we perceive and our limited understanding of science as well as the insights of ancient and modern mystics.
In brief the only answer I can come up with is that the universe and everything in it is derived from a source of energy. Without it nothing would exist. I have to believe if there were a God he/she/it would have to be in some way, shape or form a source of energy, perhaps the source of energy from which everything emerged. If this were so this source or force would have to be conscious and intelligent, perhaps the source of all consciousness. This energy the source of consciousness would be the driving force of everything both visible and invisible. From it would emerge all the forces that combine to create the visible and invisible universe. Einstein said that if there are laws (of physics) then logically there must be a law maker. These laws are encoded in the molecules that make up the universe and everything in it.

It's almost as though someone or something has painted a picture on a blank canvas; only the canvas is emptiness. I have never seen a painting materialise out of thin air. A painting requires an artist and his paints. Furthermore the artist must possess a consciousness that enables him or her to envisage the image he wishes to create. Above all he needs energy to undertake his task. This is I think a good analogy because it encompasses the necessary functions of the creative process.
For it to work though we need some evidence of the nature of consciousness. What is it? Is it a function of the mind or is it an external force that is visibly imbued in the fabric of the universe itself? To try and answer this question I have read up on experiments that indicate that plants and water possess consciousness. Plants, it is claimed have a higher level of conscious than some lower levels of insects and animals. Like plants, water apparently responds consciously to positive and negative frequency stimulation as do we humans. Interestingly we are ourselves largely composed of water as are plants. If this is true then there is a strong possibility we will discover consciousness at some level everywhere and in everything in the universe. Indeed the entire universe may well be a conscious entity. It is therefore not beyond the bounds of reason that the universe is a manifestation of consciousness and that consciousness is what we call God. As we are discovering, everything appears to be interconnected to everything else. This interconnection indicates that there is no objective separation of galaxies planets, plants or other elements such as water or ourselves. In which case the whole universe is an active and reactive single conscious entity where everything is connected to everything else.
In other word the entire universe is the manifestation of it's creator, the entity or force we call "God".
This explanation of the nature and form of God is I believe one that is believable. It is that of the artist, the grand designer rather than one occupied by the petty detail of our personal lives. It is nevertheless no less comforting because I do believe the words, "God is love" is at the heart of this consciousness. There is a good argument to be made for this hypothesis but that must be for another time. Suffice it to say that when one acts out of love the world becomes a much brighter place. There is enormous comfort and hope in this vision of God. If we follow the path of enlightened love we can raise our levels of consciousness and become part of the blissful and boundless joy that such a state can bring. If not we walk blindly and joylessly on a path of darkness. These appear to be self evident, fundamental, eternal and inescapable truths, the only real truths that really exist. This is the truth of God in my humble view.
Lastly, I have never believed that the universe spontaneously self combusted into existence from a state of nothingness. A state of nothingness is a contradiction in terms. If it existed it would be something. It is therefore an impossibllity. This being the case there can never have been a beginning nor can there be an ending. There is just an eternal state of being and this state of being is in constant evolution. This concept defies the understanding of science which must have a beginning and an end to everything and that is why science continually finds itself going down blind alleys. They have as yet failed to understand that if God exists he/she/it is the science they study. If this is right, God is the ultimate law maker, the artist par excellence.
