Exploring The Divine Feminine with Don Miguel and Don Jose Ruiz

Kala speaks with Don Miguel Ruiz and his son, Don Jose about the power of the Divine Feminine in their lives. Don Miguel's mother, Sara Macias Vasquez ("Mother Sarita"), gifted healer, recently passed away at the age of 98. "Mother Sarita", was widely recognized as a powerful, gifted faith healer. Raised in rural Mexico, she learned ancient Toltec wisdom from her shaman grandfather, and passed this wisdom on to her son, author don Miguel Ruiz (The Four Agreements). In 2007, Mother Sarita was inducted into The San Diego Women’s Hall of Fame for her contributions to healing and teaching, and for her role as an influential mentor. Her message Si se puede, “Yes, it’s possible” was an inspiration to many. Her courageous and loving spirit will be greatly missed.

More About Don Miguel Ruiz...
Born into a family of healers, Don Miguel Ruiz was raised in rural Mexico by a curandera (healer) mother and a nagual (shaman) grandfather. The family anticipated that Miguel would embrace their centuries-old legacy of healing and teaching. Instead, distracted by modern life, Miguel chose to attend medical school and become a surgeon.
A near-death experience changed his life. Late one night in the early 1970s, he awoke suddenly, having fallen asleep at the wheel of his car. At that moment the car crashed into a wall of concrete. He remembers that he was not in his physical body as he watched himself pull his two friends to safety. Stunned by this experience, he began an intensive practice of self-inquiry. He devoted himself to the mastery of the ancient ancestral wisdom, studying earnestly with his mother, and completing an apprenticeship with a powerful shaman in the Mexican desert. For more than two decades, Don Miguel Ruiz has worked to impart this wisdom to his students through lectures, workshops, and journeys to sacred sites around the world.

More About Don Jose Ruiz...
Don Jose Ruiz was born in Mexico City, Mexico and was raised in Tijuana, Mexico. When he was 21 he came to live in the U.S. with his father, don Miguel Ruiz. From a very young age don Jose was guided by many teachers present in his life including, his mother and father, his grandmother Sarita, and other family elders. Don Jose's journey to India as a young man taught him discipline and modified his entire perception of himself and love.

Through masterful guidance by his teachers and amazing life experiences with precision synchronicity, Jose came to 'silent knowledge'; he witnessed the world as it is, without any story. In his early twenties, don Jose lost his eyesight. In his process of surrendering, he learned the value of learning to listen; to listen to his inner wisdom and integrity and to see different perspectives, while knowing nothing is personal. He had a renewed love and gratitude for life ~ and he found acceptance, happiness and abundance; he found bliss. He grasped a true understanding of faith, love, gratitude and humility. Through his surrender and faith, in concert with modern medicine don Jose recovered his eyesight.

Like his father, combining new insights with ancient wisdom, don Jose is dedicating his life to sharing the ancient Toltec wisdom by translating it into practical, everyday life concepts that promote transformation through truth, love and common sense.

Don Jose teaches and lectures across the United States and around the world: Power Journeys to the pyramids of Teotihuacan, Palenque, Tulum and Coba; workshops with guest don Miguel or other teachers at Omega ­ NY, Austin, and Vancouver. Don Jose is currently writing his first book.

Paranormal State with Ryan Buell

Kala speaks with Ryan Buell about PRS and his show, Paranormal State. PARANORMAL STATE is a half-hour series chronicling the extraordinary life of Ryan Buell and other members of the Penn State University Club The Paranormal Research Society (PRS) as they seek to find the truth behind terrifying real life mysteries, hauntings and ghosts. In some ways, the members of PRS are your basic college kids - dealing with the problems of school, dating, and finding their way in the world. The difference is that these students are drawn to examining "other" worlds as well -- working on cases that include ghosts, hauntings and other paranormal phenomena. Each week, they are contacted for help by outside parties ranging from the Catholic Church to ordinary families who are terrified by unusual events in their homes.

More About Ryan Buell:
Ryan Buell founded the Paranormal Research Society the first month he arrived on campus in September 2001. Buell always knew he was interested in the paranormal ever since he could read. He regularly checked out books from the library ranging from poltergeists to the Bermuda Triangle. A native of Sumter, South Carolina, Buell began investigating at the age of 15. His first investigation was on the Salem-Black River Church just outside of his hometown. Buell got his first degree in May 2006. He is now finishing another degree while working on the first season of "Paranormal State." Buell's ultimate goals are to produce documentaries and encourage discussion on the paranormal. He hopes to continue growing as a paranormal investigator and to eventually push PRS in to a more academic setting. More info at: www.pennstateprs.com

Dr. Bruce Lipton More about Dr. Bruce Lipton:
Author Dr. Bruce Lipton is a former medical school professor (University of Wisconsin) and research scientist (Stanford University School of Medicine).His experiments, examining in great detail the molecular mechanisms by which cells process information, have revealed that genes do not in fact control our behavior, instead, genes are turned on and off by influences outside the cell. These influences include our perceptions and beliefs. He shows that our beliefs, true or false, positive or negative, affect genetic activity and actually alter our genetic code. Dr. Lipton's profoundly hopeful work, being hailed as one of the major breakthroughs in the New Sciences, shows how we can retrain our consciousness to create healthy beliefs, and by doing so create a profoundly positive effect on our bodies and our lives.

Flying Saucers and Science with Stanton Friedman

Kala speaks with Stanton Friedman about his latest book: Flying Saucers and Science, a comprehensive look at the scientific data on the flying saucer phenomenon. Nuclear physicist and lecturer Stanton T. Friedman has distilled more than 40 years of research on UFOs, and shares his work on a wide variety of classified advanced nuclear and space systems. He answers a number of physics questions in layman’s terms, and establishes that travel to nearby stars is within reach without violating the laws of physics. Photographs of little known, far-out advanced propulsion systems, on some of which he worked, are included. Friedman also presents data demonstrating the ability to withstand high accelerations with some surprising results. He clearly shows that government policy on this subject has been to provide false, misleading claims and disinformation, and establishes that the subject truly represents a Cosmic Watergate. Flying Saucers and Science presents intriguing data from a number of large-scale scientific UFO studies that almost no one, especially the noisy negativists, has discussed in detail. It deals with a host of “why” questions such, as reasons for the cover-up, reasons for aliens to come to Earth, and reasons for not landing on the White House lawn. Friedman unveils the SETI program, and details the antipathy of science-fiction writers to UFOs and other mysteries of the saucer conundrum. False notions about those who believe in the reality of alien visitors and the adequacy of coverage by the journalistic and scientific communities are reviewed.

Stanton discusses many topics including: What type of energy and technologies could provide travel between the star, The most likely locations in the universe where aliens come from, Why the aliens are here, Who believes in the flying saucer phenomenon and the government’s motives to cover-up,
and much, much more.

More About Stanton Friedman:
Stanton T. Friedman received BSc and MSc degrees in physics from the University of Chicago in 1955 and 1956. He was employed for 14 years as a nuclear physicist for such companies as GE, GM, Westinghouse, TRW Systems, Aerojet General Nucleonics, and McDonnell Douglas on such advanced, classified, eventually cancelled, projects as nuclear aircraft, fission and fusion rockets, and nuclear powerplants for space.

Since 1967 he has lectured on the topic "Flying Saucers ARE Real!" at more than 600 colleges and over 100 professional groups in 50 states, 9 provinces, 16 other countries. He has published more than 80 UFO papers and appeared on hundreds of radio and TV programs. He is the original civilian investigator of the Roswell Incident and co-authored "Crash at Corona: The Definitive Study of the Roswell Incident." TOP SECRET/MAJIC, his explosive book about the Majestic 12 group established in 1947 to deal with crashed saucers, was published in 1996 and went through 6 printings. The 2nd edition with a new 5000-word afterword was published in September 2005 and is in its 2nd printing. Stan was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award in Leeds, England, in September, 2002, by UFO Magazine of the UK. A documentary "Stanton T. Friedman IS Real" was broadcast in Canada in 2002.

He has provided written testimony to Congressional Hearings, appeared twice at the UN, and been a pioneer in many aspects of Ufology including Roswell, Majestic 12, the Betty Hill-Marjorie Fish star map work; analysis of the Delphos, Kansas, physical trace case; crashed saucers, flying saucer technology and challenges to the S.E.T.I. (Silly Effort to Investigate) cultists.

Stanton Friedman takes a clear-cut unambiguous stand that SOME UFOs are alien spacecraft, that the subject of flying saucers represents a Cosmic Watergate, that none of the anti-UFO arguments made by a variety of noisy negativists stand up to careful scrutiny, and that we are dealing with the biggest story of the past millennium: visits to Planet Earth by alien spacecraft and the successful coverup by governments of the best data: alien wreckage and bodies recovered in New Mexico, for 59 years. He has spent many weeks at a total of 20 document archives. Stan has successfully taken on many critics of flying saucers, Roswell, Majestic 12, including winning a debate at Oxford University.

Atlantis: Ancient Legacy, Hidden Prophecy with John Michael Greer

Kala brings back one of her favorite guests, Druid John Michael Greer, who speaks about his new book; Atlantis: Ancient Legacy, Hidden Prophecy. Join occult historian John Michael Greer and Kala on a journey through time in search of one of the great mysteries of the past. Starting with the original versions of the Atlantis story in the dialogues of Plato, Greer tracks the Atlantis myth from the hidden lodges of occult secret societies, through the freewheeling debates of the alternative history scene, to the latest scientific discoveries about the prehistoric past."Plato's account contains precise references to the catastrophic global flooding that followed the end of the last ice age and peaked at the exact date he gives for the drowning of Atlantis. The occult traditions of Atlantis tell a radically different story, a story of technology run wild amid a desperate struggle for the soul of a dying civilization . . .

In light of newspaper headlines about global warming and the future of industrial society, Greer poses the ultimate question—is the legend of Atlantis a legacy of the distant past, or a prophecy of our own future?

Atlantis includes practical lessons in scrying (remote viewing) as well as a call to action for "seedbearers" — individuals who will help preserve the cultural, scientific, and practical legacies of the past and present through the coming planetary changes.

More about John Michael Greer:
John Michael Greer has been a student of monster lore, legends and occult traditions for more than 25 years.

Living the Conscious Dream in Life and Business with John Troy

Kala speaks with John Troy about his journey into consciousness and connecting it all together to live the dream in life and in business. John's friends call him The Wizard. He says he's just doing what comes naturally. John Troy is a North Carolina native, born and raised in this gentle, southern state. Summertime found him at a farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains where he began to learn all about the world of natural foods, firsthand. Thirty years later, John met his second food guru, Jamesy, a little man in the mountains of Jamaica with a heart as big as all outdoors. Jamesy became John's spiritual Godfather. Jamesy's diet was totally natural, out of the wild and he taught John the methods of preparing healthy food with what the good earth freely provided. Days were spent gathering and preparing food from scratch from the wild harvest. Jamesy taught John the power of food in healing the body. When John returned from Jamaica, he opened a natural herb & spice store in Chapel Hill, NC and his journey in the food business began. He went on to manage two emerging natural foods stores before starting a foundation of the healing arts, The Lindenself Foundation. There, John was busy feeding folks incredible meals at retreats and gatherings. As a support for the foundation, he started an enterprise to make the world's first energy bar, The Wizard's Power Pac, a delicious high-energy bar made with fruits, nuts, herbs, honey and ginseng. Inspired by the advent of a first traditional soy facility in North Carolina, John concocted his first bottled sauce. The Wizard's Hot Stuff. This miso based hot sauce is still popular today. This was the beginning of the prolific storm of sauces, dressings and condiments that were to follow. He started American Natural Foods and introduced natural sauces and condiments to the national natural food trade.

More About John Troy:
From his growing reputation, John received an invitation from the prime minister of Grenada to consult on how to best utilize their small truck farms in reaching the culinary markets of the world. The following year, the governor of Vermont asked John to consult with the State of Vermont, helping small food artisans develop and re-formulate products and scale up for entry into the natural foods industry. He worked with this coalition of Vermont food artisans and, today, many of these companies that John coached are successful national gourmet and natural food companies. John's consulting business also took him to Japan where he learned about the wonderful world of Asian cuisine. Leveraging the consulting fees that he had earned, John was able to invest in and build a company with a bottling plant in Cedar Grove, NC. Thus The Wizard's Cauldron, LTD was founded. He began to assemble a skilled and energetic team of people with shared principles. The company began an enterprise in proprietary branding for folks who were looking for a qualified team who understood the need for a natural and organic way of providing delicious food products. At the same time, John and his wife, Carol, began planning menus and cooking at their own natural food cafe in Hillsborough, NC, The Regulator Cafe. The popular cafe had a local following that allowed the pair to experiment with many innovative new American flavor profiles. John then coached an artisan food company in the UK where they developed and formulated organic dressings for Tesco, Waitrose and Sainsbury. He continues to work with many small food artisans, coaching them to be organic and how to scale up for larger demand. Today, John Troy is CEO and Coach at The Wizard's Cauldron, where they continue to produce winning recipes. He refers to the company's marketing strategy as "The Wizard of Oz" marketing strategy. The company currently supplies over a two hundred different products for the organic food trade. Customers include Whole Foods Market, Wild Oats, Central Market, Moosewood Restaurant, Premier Japan, Simply Delicious, Rainforest Organic, OrganicVille, Redbone Alley, Albert's Organics and Atkins Nutritionals. The enterprise is still doing what comes naturally, and organically, and helps it's customers to do the same. More info at: http://www.wizardscauldron.com/

Shadow World with Brad Steiger

Who inhabits the Shadow World? We're not just talking about spirits of the dead. And "friendly" is not a proper description of their character. Having conducted research through five decades and across four continents, investigator Brad Steiger concludes that a richly populated Shadow World exists all around us. When it impinges on our ordinary plane of shared reality, this dark dimension is sometimes frightening, occasionally menacing, but always worthy of cautious exploration.

Spirits of the dead are but one of the many types of beings that inhabit in the Shadow World. Others appear to be multidimensional beings, some of whom may be benign, while others seem to be cosmic tricksters or troublemakers bent on mischief. And unfortunately some of the beings that seem to have our best interests at heart may in fact have entered our world with the intention of possessing our bodies or capturing our souls.

Journey with Kala as she explores the depths of the Shadow World with Brad Steiger. His book is: SHADOW WORLD True Encounters with Beings from the Darkside.

The Life of Robert Monroe with Ronald Russell

In 1971 Doubleday published a book called Journeys Out of the Body, a Virginia businessman's memoir of his weird and wonderful adventures on other planes of reality. That book, which has sold more than a million copies, and that man, Robert Monroe, helped cement the concept of astral travel into the American psyche and made the "out-of-body experience" a household word. Monroe not only helped others understand this state of being, but through his research on binaural beats and his development of the technology known as Hemi-Sync, he made the OBE accessible through programs at The Monroe Institute, which is attended by thousands of people each year. However, Monroe made consciousness research more than an esoteric thrill ride. He put his technology to practical use by creating frequencies that have helped people with everything from meditation and learning, to insomnia, quitting smoking, and pain control. In this interview, Kala speaks with Ronald Russell about his time spent with Robert Monroe, what occurs at the Monroe Institute and the life of Robert Monroe.

More About Ronald Russell:
Ronald Russell was born in Croydon, England. He attended St Paul’s School, London, served in the Royal Air Force 1943-46 and then took an Honours Degree in English Language & Literature at Merton College, Oxford. He followed a career in teaching in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Monmouth and Ely, Cambridgeshire, and examined and lectured for various Universities, including London, Oxford, and Cambridge.

After Ronald retired from teaching, he and Jill took the Gateway course at The Monroe Institute, following that with several more courses over the years. They joined the Institute’s Professional Division and were appointed to the Board of Advisors. They presented courses in Cambridge using the Monroe Hemi-Sync technology and introduced it also to Slovakia and the Czech Republic. They became close friends of Bob and Nancy Monroe and Ronald edited Monroe’s third book, Ultimate Journey, contributing a preface to the first edition. Now living in Galloway, Ronald has given several lecture courses on states of consciousness for the University of Glasgow.

Lost Lands and Forgotten Realms with Dr. Bob Curran

There are places that turn up in literature or in film - mystical and legendary places - whose names may be familiar but about which we know little. We nod knowingly at the reference, but are often left wondering about places such as Atlantis, the lost land overwhelmed by the sea or El Dorado, the fabulous city that vanished somewhere in the South American jungles. Other names are more evocative Mount Olympus, the Garden of Eden, the mystic Isle of Avalon and Davy Jones' Locker. But did such places actually exist and if so, where were they, and what really happened? What are the traditions and legends associated with them?

In "Lost Lands, Forgotten Realms", historian, Dr. Bob Curran, sets out to find the answers by journeying to the far-flung corners of the world and to the outer reaches of human imagination. Inside you will: climb the high mountains in search of the mythical Shangri-La; navigate the deep swamps and jungles in a quest for the Seven Cities of Cibola; travel to the depths of the dark oceans to look for sunken lands such as Lemuria and Lyonesse; experience unspeakable danger in a realm rarely visited by men - the subterranean lair of Judaculla; and discover the secrets of Heliopolis, Yggradsil, Hy Brasail, the Kingdom of Prester John, Llyobia and the Hollow Hills.

  More About Dr. Bob Curran:
Dr. Bob Curran lives and works in the North of Ireland, a place that is haunted by myth, legend and folktales. Over the years, he has studied the dark and sinister, both in his own land and in places beyond.

The Intelligence of Orbs with Micael Ledwith

Dr. Míceál Ledwith began an intense and systematic study of orbs in all sort of situations, day and night, and in all sorts of atmospheric conditions, in order to discover all he could about their nature, the situations in which their presence could be most easily detected, and what implications they might have for our understanding of our own place in the cosmos. To date, he has amassed a collection of well over 100,000 images.

In The Orb Project, Ledwith and Heinemann present their fascinating discoveries, along with practical tips that amateur digital photographers can use to photograph orbs and properly distinguish them from "false" orbs that are really dust or water particles. They offer guidelines on deciphering the orbs' various patterns, features, and characteristics, based on their extensive research.

As Dr. Ledwith points out, once you develop a keen and sustained interest in photographing spirit entities, some quite interesting things begin to happen: the brain stops censoring these images, and you can begin to see with orbs with the naked eye -- in more color and detail than is visible to even a digital camera.

Ledwith and Heinemann also explore communication with orbs and what their existence means to our lives. The implications of a realization that we are "surrounded by a cloud of witnesses" are enormous and incredibly hopeful for the world at large.

More About Dr. Micael Ledwith:
Dr. Miceal Ledwith, L.Ph., L.D., D.D., LL.D (h.c), served as a Catholic priest and as Professor of Theology and College President for over 25 years in Ireland. During the course of his academic and administrative careers he lectured extensively to interested adult groups in many countries and continues to speak at venues all over the world today. He is a long-time member of Ramtha's School of Ancient Wisdom and has been invited to speak at Events held by the school for several years at many venues throughout the world. He was one of the scholars featured in "What the Bleep Do We Know," and its sequel "Down the Rabbit Hole."

Given his life's experience and long years as a professional theologian Miceal Ledwith believes he is in a unique position to assist people who are also searching for information and answers, and to point the way so that they too can move towards finding the journey of discovery which he is on. To assist in that way is the objective of both the DVD series and his forthcoming major work, "Forbidden Truth." His book is "The Orb Phenomenon," co-authored with the German physicist Dr. Klaus Heinemann. More info here: www.hamburgeruniverse.com
 
Star of the Magi with Courtney Roberts

The Star of Bethlehem is still one of the most popular and puzzling mysteries of the Bible. Its inclusion, at the very beginning of the very first Gospel, raises so many awkward questions for orthodox Christianity that one has to wonder how it ever made the canonical cut in the first place.

So why would the authors (and editors) of the Christian Gospels choose Zoroastrian Magi and astrology to herald the coming of Jesus Christ? Did the Magi have some special significance then that we have since lost? After all, the New Testament narrative opens with them. So who were the Magi, and did their astrological beliefs really lead them to Jesus?

In The Star of the Magi, Courtney Roberts examines the Star. The Magi had definite expectations of a coming world savior who would be born of a virgin, all mysteriously encoded and foretold in Magian astrology. These ancient Persian beliefs had tremendous bearing on the development of Jewish messianic expectations—they inspired early Christians and their Jewish and Persian neighbors, and gave them hope in their desperate battles against the Romans.

According to Roberts, astronomy alone cannot unlock the secrets of the Star. There are simply too many phenomena to choose from—even astronomers concede that that we must now look to astrology for better answers.

More About Courtney Roberts:
Courtney Roberts, M.A. is a writer, teacher, and consultant, originally from Miami, FL. Her work reflects a unique perspective: a real passion for the 'big picture' that combines cosmology, religious studies and history with a lifetime of observing the dynamic interaction of spirit and cosmos.

She is a graduate of the revolutionary Masters program in Cultural Astronomy and Astrology at Bath Spa University in England, where she developed her specialization in the role of astrology in religion, particularly Persian Zoroastrianism and western monotheism. An avid traveler and world citizen, her fascination with Celtic culture; the language, music, and history, has kept her overseas for years, living in Ireland and Great Britain, while her Buddhist studies led to extended residence in Asia. She maintains a busy schedule, writing, teaching, and lecturing to audiences of every persuasion, all around the world. More info here: www.courtneyrobertshome.com

Oneness Movement with Sri Raniji

Sri Bhagavan and Sri Amma, founders of the Oneness University have repeatedly said, the solution to humanity's suffering can only be found through each person being awakened to the state of Oneness - a level of consciousness characterized by inner peace, joy and love for all. However, this level of consciousness is not something we can give ourselves, it must be given to us through Divine Grace. It is the mission of Sri Bhagavan and Sri Amma to bring this sense of Oneness to all of humanity. Their inspired vision is to awaken 64,000 people around the world. In turn, these people will act as Divine vessels to help transform the rest of humanity. Each day the divine energy being transferred to individuals through the practice of the Oneness Blessing is increasing several fold and thousands of people are opening to this grace we call Oneness.

More About Sri Raniji:
Sri Raniji only became aware of suffering when she experienced it as an adult. As she searched for answers, she encountered many concepts and ideas which were not fundamentally helpful. Not until she met Acharyia Anandagiriji, did her life change dramatically and quickly. There was great beauty, simplicity and universality in his message. She realized that only true internal freedom can create a joyful life. The compassion born of her extreme suffering was so profound, she became dedicated to relieve the pain of others. “Use me,” she asked of AmmaBhagavan. That was twelve years ago. Bhagavan appointed her as Spiritual Leader and Founder of the Oneness Movement in North America. Sri Raniji has made her mission to help bring the gift of love to the people of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Italy. She works and travels tirelessly, presenting a wide variety of workshops, ofen in major universities, such as “Energy Transfer for Enlightenment” (also called Deeksha), “Awakening the Higher Self”, “Perfecting Relationships”, “Discovering Bliss”, and “Freedom from Stress.” More info at: https://www.onenessmovement.org

The Element Encyclopedia of Secret Societies and Hidden History with author John Michael Greer

Behind the ordinary history of the world lies a second, hidden story — of secret societies, lost civilizations, sinister conspiracies, and mysterious events. Alternative visions of history have been around for nearly fifty years and popular culture has rapidly fed into this growing obsession, from The X-Files to the phenomenon of Dan Brown's novel, The Da Vinci Code. But how secret are these secret societies and what traces do the murky events of hidden history leave behind? The Element Encyclopedia of Secret Societies and Hidden History holds all the information you've been looking for to guide you through the shadows of this mysterious world. Here you'll find the facts, arguments, important figures, and theories surrounding key questions being asked by many
today: Do secret societies actually control the world, and if so, what do they plan to do with it? What were the real origins of Christianity, the Freemasons, or the French Revolution? What is the significance of King Arthur, Leonardo da Vinci, and Adolf Hitler to the world's secret societies? Like the quest for the Holy Grail of legend, the truth behind the shadowy side of history is easier to seek than to find. John Michael Greer is a unique guide: using a wealth of research, he also draws upon personal knowledge of secret societies and the occult underground world to guide you through the fascinating labyrinth of conspiracy theories, unsolved historical mysteries, lost arcane sciences, and secret organizations.

More about John Michael Greer:

Revelation: The Divine Fire - with Brad Steiger

A Biblical prediction says that "In the latter days, your sons and daughters shall prophesy." Brad Steiger has communicated with literally hundreds of individuals who claim to have received messages directly from God--or from spacemen, angels, "guides," or other superhuman entities. It would be easy to dismiss these latter-day prophets as deluded, but amazingly, their revelations all have an internal consistency, a common theme: a time of judgment is at hand, and mankind must change its ways to avert disaster. Moreover, contemporary housewives, businessmen, and "Jesus people" are experiencing the same symptoms of revelation-- a blinding light, a voice out of nowhere, an impulse to take on a new name and a new life.

On the track of the elusive source of these messages, Steiger examines the spread of glossolalia and faith-healing; the folklore of elves and leprechauns; the awesome cases where a revelator's body is briefly occupied by an outside personality; the mysterious "Elijah" tradition of the Bible that suggests that the great prophets (perhaps even Jesus) were possessed by a single entity; and the latest laboratory research into consciousness-expansion.

Revelation: The Divine Fire presents actual warnings, predictions, and messages from a wide spectrum of contemporary revelators. In addition, there are interviews and evaluations from a number of clergymen, scientists, and psychics who have met the Divine Fire.

More about Brad Steiger:
Brad Steiger is the author/coauthor of 154 books with over 17 million copies in print.His titles include: Biographies: Valentino, Judy Garland, Jim Thorpe, Books of inspiration: Love Is A Miracle, Christmas Miracles, Miracles of a Mother's Love, Animal Miracles. The phenomenal and the paranormal: Mysteries of Time and Space, The Source: A Journey through the Unexplained, The Werewolf Book: An Encyclopedia of Shapeshifting Beings, Real Ghosts, Restless Spirits, and Haunted Places, The Gale Encyclopedia [three volumes] of the Unusual and Unexplained. Spirituality: Revelation--The Divine Fire, Touched by Heaven's Light, American Indian Medicine Power, Totems, UFO research: Strangers from the Skies, Project Bluebook, The Rainbow Conspiracy, UFO Odyssey. Steiger's first published articles on the unexplained appeared in 1956, and he has now written more than 2,000 articles with paranormal themes. From 1970-'73, his weekly newspaper column, The Strange World of Brad Steiger, was carried domestically in over 80 newspapers and overseas from Bombay to Tokyo. He is married to Sherry Hansen Steiger, a licensed and ordained minister, herself the author or coauthor of over 22 books. He has two sons, three daughters, and six grandchildren.

The Ark, The Shroud and Mary with Philip Gardiner

Why do the Ark of the Covenant, Mary’s reliquary box, and Jesus’ Coffer all have the same imagery? Was the Ark the container of the Covenant, the Ten Commandments, or the Chalice? Does the image of the Shroud of Turin contain a bioelectric field? These questions and others will be explored in The Ark, The Shroud, and Mary. In this unique and thought-provoking work Gardiner proves that the Ark of the Covenant, the Shroud of Turin, and Mary are united in ways never before imagined. Traveling across the world, from Rome to India, Portugal to Egypt, Gardiner uncovers the trail of the Ark and finds that it does not lead to Ethiopia, as many believe, but instead in a direction that nobody could have imagined. The trail of the Ark takes Gardiner on a hunt into the very heart of an ancient secret society with clandestine meetings in far off lands. Uniting the myth, tradition, and language of the Ark with the Shroud of Turin, Gardiner then goes on to re-date it, reveal how it was made, and identify whose image it actually recreates. Through his new-found contacts in the world of secret societies, Gardiner then shows how this incredible secret was protected by a dual brotherhood throughout time and was the secret source of the enlightenment spoken of by numerous orders from the Sufis to the Knights Templar.

More about Philip Gardiner:
Philip is married with two children and lives in the heart of Robin Hood country in England. The best-selling author of The Serpent Grail and The Shining Ones, Philip Gardiner has made hundreds of radio, TV and public appearances; he is featured in a new Discovery Channel series to be released this year.
