“Investigating the evolution of consciousness through integrated symbolic, archaeological, and psychological research.”

  • Spiritual Discipline and Power

    The more we are in sync with the Spirit through the discipline of meditation/prayer, fasting and studying, the more conscious we become of the potential dangers that manifest themselves throughout our journey in this life that seek to lead us astray. And not only do these disciplines bring about a greater awareness of these potential dangers, but the more powerful we become to overcome them, too.

  • The Process of Transformation | The Truth Cast Show

    Join me this evening, January 26th at 6 pm central for the live broadcast of The Truth Cast Show on YouTube. This week we will continue our study of the process of neural plasticity and the transformation of the self. We will continue exploring ways in which to rewire both the brain and body, as well as explore ideas of transformation that are embedded within both Biblical and non-biblical narratives. We will examine how these collective narratives of transformation compare to one another and how they line up with current empirical data. Hope you can join and God bless.

  • What Does It Mean To Be Christlike?

    What does it mean to be Christ-like?

    Love is dual natured, which means that within the conception of love there is both a compassionate and judgmental nature present. Christ Himself is depicted as being both as gentle as a lamb and a divine judge. We too are called to exhibit this dual natured aspect of love by being compassionate towards one another while at the same time encouraging each other to ascend towards the higher calling of God in our life.

  • Push Your Bounds

    Transformation is accomplished by engaging in the unknown, and then seeking to incorporate this new found knowledge into your current knowledge structure. If you are never willing to stretch your bounds, then transformation can never occur.

  • Three Week Fitness Progress

    Been training for almost 3 months now, but even the difference in the past 3 weeks is motivating. The photo on the left was taken October 3rd, and the one on the right was taken earlier.

    Noticeable added lean muscle mass, as well as fat reduction throughout the body and especially around the abdominal section can be seen. Improvements in overall energy and endurance is also evident.

    It is always good to be able to see progress in your training program, especially in such short durations. These noticeable improvements help regulate serotonin levels and overall emotional well-being, and in due process a continued motivational drive to keep pushing forward. Excited to see more of these improvements.

  • The Image of The Beast and Quantum Computing

    I have spoken about this several times on my shows in the past about the possibility of a future quantum computer producing a consciousness of its own to become the image of the beast. This newly released study appears to link very well with my hypothesis in that our own production of consciousness maybe be entangled within or be a byproduct of quantum computation in the human brain itself. If our brains use quantum computation to operate and possibly produce consciousness, then it is plausible that the coming advances in the quantum computing will produce an AI system capable of the same feat.
