- [Presenter] We can easily forgive a child
who is afraid of the dark.
The real tragedy of life is when men
are afraid of the light.
Hello everyone, welcome back.
Today we're taking another turn
on the what if highway
similar to our recent episode about chakras,
this time though we're getting real sci-fi.
We're talking warp engines, teleportation
and time-travel kind of stuff.
At the risk of triggering some Einstein enthusiasts
or Neil deGrasse Tyson,
well scientist's discretion is advised.
Let's talk about the speed of light
and more specifically,
what if anything is faster than it.
(cheerful music)
To begin, this episode was inspired
by an early Joe Rogan podcast
where he featured Dr. Steven Greer,
the founder of CSETI,
The Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence
as well as the disclosure project.
He's a man who was brought to light over 4,000 cases
of UFO landings
and over 3,500 pilot cases of UFO sightings
and over 500 reports of whistleblowers
from military and government officials
reporting on both UFO's
as well as ET encounters
including over a hundred of these reports on videotape
and on a completely side note, Joe if you're watching,
please bring Dr. Greer back on your show.
Anyways, what he described in this podcast
is that all of these ETs who are visiting the planet
and they're definitely real by the way
are not coming here in methods
that are within the confines of the speed of light or slower
because it would take millennia
to actually travel across the universe
at these abysmally slow speeds.
They're actually moving faster than light somehow.
Now he explains that after passing the speed of light,
it's an entirely different and new kind of physics
different than anything we currently know.
While the prevalence of light being the fastest thing
has been experimentally proven
by our current model of physics,
if there are aspects of the universe
that are unseen by us and based in undiscovered laws
then perhaps the belief of light above all
is limiting us from perceiving an even greater truth.
The constant interpretation
of people looking at this information
saying it's debunked and then ridiculing it
is actually holding us back socially and technologically.
In one particular moving section of this interview,
Stephen explains that at one time
he sat down with a CIA director's family
and the director's wife asked him,
"How are they getting here?"
Referring to the aliens
and he answered that they have this advanced technology
that interfaces between thought and consciousness.
He describes that just like crossing the sound barrier
was a big deal
the light barrier is going to be an even bigger deal.
and when we do
we are going to cross into these sort of
multiphasic resonant dimensions,
part of which hook into the singularity of mind and thought.
The CIA director's wife looked at him with wide eyes
and just went,
"Wow, I knew it had to be something like that."
And it was right then in that moment
that I decided we had to make this video.
Part of the challenge of understanding
the faster than light conundrum
is getting to know the initial problem in the first place
and why do scientists believe that there's nothing faster.
To quote Neil deGrasse Tyson
in his book "Astrophysics for People in a Hurry",
we find the following,
"Among all constants,
the speed of light is the most famous.
No matter how fast you go,
you will never overtake a beam of light, why not?
No experiment ever conducted
has ever revealed an object of any form
reaching the speed of light.
Well-tested laws of physics
predict and account for that fact.
I know these statements sound closed-minded.
Some of the most boneheaded
science-based proclamations in the past
have underestimated the ingenuity
of inventors and engineers.
We will never fly,
flying we'll never be commercially feasible.
We will never split the atom.
We will never break the sound barrier.
We will never go to the moon.
What they have in common
is that no established law of physics stood in their way.
The claim "We will never outrun a beam of light",
is a qualitatively different prediction.
It flows from basic time tested physical principles.
Highway signs for interstellar travelers of the future
will justifiably read the speed of light,
It's not just a good idea,
it's the law."
To actually get into the science of light
and the whole deal here is honestly a whole video on its own
but basically, the speed of light
is this curious property of light
where it travels at a particular speed no matter what.
Even if you were flying a spaceship
at half the speed of light
and have headlights in front of the ship,
that light would still travel
at the speed of light, no faster
measured from any perspective moving or not.
As Neal wrote,
no modern physics experiment
has ever found any evidence of anything moving faster
but then again, as Stephen Greer described
on the other side of that barrier
may be an entirely different kind of physics.
Perhaps we don't even have the tools
to measure the mysteries beyond that barrier.
With a new kind of physics,
perhaps we get into a more quantum understanding
of the universe again,
being able to move forwards and backwards through time
and leap massive distances through space
that would be impossible on this side
of the light speed barrier.
So okay, maybe there is some way
that is beyond our understanding
on how to move through this faster than light dimension,
which of course opens the doors of curiosity for all of us
but then the question becomes,
what else is out there?
A very big question in science right now
is concerned with the mysterious cosmic substances,
dark matter and dark energy.
Could these mysterious things
virtually undetectable to us
besides that they produce gravity,
be waiting for us on the other side of the light barrier.
Now what's especially curious about this
is that we find a link
to the mysteries of dark matter and energy
in a place that you might not expect.
The work of Dr. Rick Strassman, PhD.
This is a man who has pioneered psychedelic research
for all of us in a profound way
with his work with DMT
which he coined the spirit molecule
leading to the publishing of his book and movie
of the same name.
In his writings,
he challenges all conventional thinking
about science, consciousness and dimensions
with some absolutely profound and groundbreaking research
which any scientists today should take special note of
because of the implications of his incredible studies.
Over the course of several years,
Rick led the expedition
to administer several hundred doses of DMT
to participants in a study
to see if there were any clinical benefits of using DMT.
What the study revealed however,
opened up a wormhole of possibilities
that could potentially change our understand of ourselves
and the universe forever.
Over and over,
Rick's participants all experienced
these incredible psychedelic voyages
that often included seeing environments and realms
that were outside of what could physically exist
in our universe
or meeting alien beings in many sizes and shapes
who interacted with the participants.
Rick tried over and over to rationalize this,
for the conventional thinking
says that psychedelic simply reveals in your mind
what is already within you
but enough participants reported meeting the same
or similar beings that seemed outlandish
to think that these experiences
were all just happening inside of people's heads.
Not only did the research suggest
that the participants consciousness was actually being taken
to another dimension of sorts,
meeting beings who are not from the same planet
that we exist in
but the participants also said the exact same thing.
They claimed definitively that this was not an experience
isolated within them
but they knew without a shadow of a doubt
that they actually met these other beings for real.
To any scientist who outright denies this suggestion,
I challenge you to go exploring with plant medicine
in a sacred ceremonial way.
I know Rhythmia will take you
and see if you feel the same way after.
That's not to say that psychedelics are exclusively a cosmic
and external experience
but that it seems to open you up
for conscious expansion
both internally and externally
in both this dimension and others.
The reason that I bring all this up
is because Dr. Strassman
describes this may even relate
with the mysteries dark matter
and dark energy.
Aha! You see, we've come full circle.
In "DMT the Spirit Molecule",
he wrote the following,
"The strangest realms to which DMT might lead
are those that exist within the mysterious realms
of dark matter.
There, which may indeed be here,
no one knows what we will find.
Dark matter comprises at least 95% of this universes mass,
in other words,
nearly all of the matter in the universe is invisible.
We cannot see it in neither generates
nor reflects radiation of any type visible or otherwise.
The only way we know it is there
is by its gravitational effects.
It must exist by virtue of the fact
that the visible universe maintains its particular shape.
Without this mass, there would not be enough gravity
to hold the universe together.
It would fly apart.
Scientists have nominated several candidates
for the stuff that comprises dark matter.
Normal matter that radiates little or no light,
planets, dead or unborn stars and black holes
may account for about 20% of dark matter.
However, it's likely that most
if not all dark matter
consists of particles, quite different
from our familiar protons, electrons and neutrons.
These black particles
may obey entirely different laws of physics.
Unlike those in parallel universes
finding ourselves in a world comprised of them
we most likely would not recognize much.
Either of these invisible levels of existence,
parallel, universes or dark matter
are present at the same time as this reality,
thus they both are options we must consider
for where DMT takes us
when our consciousness is no longer
in this plane of existence.
The immediacy of the transition
makes appealing these two alternate viewpoints
regarding the incredibly unusual places
our volunteers describe.
This is because they're as much here as there.
So the question about inside versus outside,
as many volunteers posed it
really no longer has any meaning.
Before performing the DMT research,
I never would have suggested that familiarity
with alien abduction phenomenon
would be important in providing
the best possible supervision for these sessions.
However I do now.
I also believe it's helpful to know everything
about current theories regarding invisible realms
like dark matter and parallel universes.
Equipped with these types of training and experiences,
research scientists and staff will be ready to understand,
accept and react
to nearly everything that might come up
during deep psychedelic sessions."
And so bringing things to a close,
we must strive to answer the question from the beginning.
What, if anything can go faster than light?
It seems that with certain technology
perhaps even physical objects can,
as we've seen with the stories of the ships
but as far as our own bodies and minds go,
at least what Dr Strassman has discovered,
it seems very possible
that even if our bodies are limited here,
perhaps consciousness is the one thing
that permeates everywhere
including beyond the speed of light,
perhaps at least with some help
from a little bit of DMT that is.
I feel with all of this information,
the biggest thing for me
is that when scientists make definitive statements
about absolutes in the universe,
the proper response seems to be healthy skepticism.
That there are so many mysteries in the cosmos
that it seems arrogant
to suggest that we understand everything perfectly
especially when the standard model quantum mechanics
and even gravity are incomplete
and do not fully connect with each other,
especially with the work of some of these great people
we've discussed today,
it would seem as though there's something going on
to suggest not only that there's another reality
waiting for us beyond the light barrier
but that we may even be naturally equipped
to explore these realms within us.
Thank you so much for watching,
we'll see you next time.
