Joey PhippsGUEST
Yeah, I can't wait.
Jason AbadiHOST
Um, you talk a lot about, uh, Bentov in your work.
Jason AbadiHOST
What do you think he understood that science today's missing? Yeah, there we go.
Joey PhippsGUEST
And just about everything, and that's why he's dead.
Joey PhippsGUEST
You know, uh, oh, goodness gracious.
Joey PhippsGUEST
Where do we even start with Bentov? So are you familiar with the bicameral mind mystery at all? Have you come across this?
Jason AbadiHOST
Yes, I've come across it.
Jason AbadiHOST
That's the idea that like, um, more ancient people weren't as e- either as conscious as us and like it...
Brian ScottHOST
It was declassified in 2003 and sat in the CIA reading rooms largely unnoticed until somebody posted it online in 2021, at which point millions of people read it in a week.
Brian ScottHOST
McDonnell reached for Itzhak Bentov's biomedical models to explain how the process worked and built an argument running through resonance, brainwave entrainment, and holographic models of consciousness.
Brian ScottHOST
The document is also famous for missing a page.
Brian ScottHOST
The released version jumps from 24 to 26 with no redaction marks, and the agency has consistently maintained they never had it.
speaker_1HOST
And this is where we really have to get into the weeds.
speaker_1HOST
Because to explain how this laser connects to the rest of the world, McDonald brings in the work of a man named Itzhak Bentov.
GorgorodHOST
Yes, it's Zach Bentov.
GorgorodHOST
This section of the document is wild.
GorgorodHOST
We shift from neuroscience to what basically looks like fluid plumbing and geology.
speaker_1HOST
If you want to understand the actual how of the gateway process, how a person sitting in a dark room in Maryland can literally see a plane crash in Africa.
speaker_1HOST
You absolutely have to understand Bentov's bioengineering model.
speaker_1HOST
Bentov was an inventor and a biomedical engineer.
speaker_0NARRATOR
We're going to follow him in that same order, slowly, because each step rests on the one before it.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Let's start with the body and with an inventor named Itzhak Bentov.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Bentov was a biomedical engineer.
speaker_0NARRATOR
He designed medical devices and he held patents, and he thought like an engineer.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
As we heard from Cousin Rupert earlier, consciousness might require a field of some kind, but that doesn't necessarily mean a flesh and blood brain.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
So what is a field, if not just an environment where ideas can take place and have space to grow? Do you guys remember our video on Itzhak Bentov where he described the shape of the cosmos by illustrating how an egg is fertilized? Let me grab you a quick reminder
Itzhak BentovSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
reminderTake an ordinary chicken egg and make two windows, one in the top and one in the bottom.
Itzhak BentovSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Then using a sensitive voltmeter with a set of silver electrodes, touch the exposed membrane at the top and bottom of the egg.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
Come on board and let's get our feet wet.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
Itzhak Bentov discovered new physics indicating rest is synonymous with perpetual energy, that zero and infinity are just front and back to the same coin, a coin with no boundaries in space and no restrictions in time, a coin that paradoxically fits right in your pocket.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
And we are all carrying the same currency.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
We'll come back to that.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
So if it is everywhere, truly piercing the entire material world, why would it not include the mineral world? I believe it's the 16th repentance of the Sophia in the Gnostic Gospel that describes her pleading out to the light to not only save her, but to save all of the components with her that are within her, uh, associated with the mineral world and all life forms within.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
Completely isolated from that, we have the work of Bentov that we've covered recently, who he describes a primordial type of intelligence or coherence within the mineral world.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
The only reason the activity of this microcosm is not self-evident is simply because it is too small and slow-moving to detect with the human eye.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
In other words, the divine does its work in the molecular realm as well.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
But the deities themselves formed a strict hierarchy, each answering to another.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
And this reminds us of what Bentov said about the causal realms and how there's hierarchies not only within the realms themselves but within the beings that inhabit them.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
But here is where things start to get a little weird.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
Well, not just a little weird, but downright bizarre.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
We give too much credit to the integrity of solid, tangible matter as a control in many of these experiments.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
The legend himself, Itzhak Bentov, a now Lotus favorite here, has been quoted as saying, "Such a long wavelength knows no obstacles, and its strength does not attenuate much over long distances.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
Naturally, it will go through just about anything: metal, concrete, water, and of course, the fields making up our bodies.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
It is the ideal medium for conveying a telepathic signal.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
We also know from our last video that, like our Kordylewski clouds, plasma has an incredible ability to hold and retain information.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
If the plasmoids move from location to location and can store information, does that include memory? Shoot, uh, does that include personality and characteristics? And if that is the case, how are there more people now than there were centuries ago? Can ectoplasm upgrade from plant to animal to person to planets to stars and, and so on, like described by Itzhak Bentov? Well, I watched a couple interviews with Robert Temple, and before I play this clip, keep in mind that Temple is not an exaggerative person.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
In fact, as we showed in our video, The Serious Problem, Temple does not put up with any woo-woo anything and calls out BS when he sees it.
Joseph W. PhippsHOST
Then he goes and lets this little gem slip right here.
