Avi Loeb is a theoretical physicist in the fields of astrophysics and cosmology. He is also the author of the best-selling book, “Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth.” In this episode, Loeb explains why the interstellar object known as Oumuamua could be evidence of alien technology.
Aliens arrived a long time ago… and they’re still here. Dr. Garry Nolan of the Stanford University School of Medicine joined Alex Klokus to discuss his extensive research on the history of UFOs and signs of extraterrestrial life on earth. Dr. Nolan lays out the overwhelming evidence that aliens have been here for a long time, what technology is likely being used, the U.S. governments role in facilitating information and how we can use alien technology to expand the reaches of human consciousness.

We are at a crossroads. One path leads to destruction. The other is living together in harmony with nature. Ancient Hopi Prophecy interpreted by Hopi religious elders Thomas Banyacya and Grandfather David Monongye.
Videotaped in 1972 by Dean and Dudley Evenson at the first United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in Stockholm, Sweden. The last part of the video shows Thomas Banyacya in 1993 at a Dalai Lama event in Tucson, Arizona where Dean and Dudley caught up with him almost 20 years after the first video.
Stewart Brand, founder of the Whole Earth Catalog, had sponsored 15 Native Americans to attend the first United Nations Earth Summit in Stockholm to share their message about Mother Earth for the diplomats and young people gathered there. Dean and Dudley were there with their half-inch Sony Video Portapack to videotape events in and around the conference. The Native Americans they met inspired them to share the message about respecting and caring for the planet. In 1979 Dean and Dudley founded their record label, Soundings of the Planet, with a mission of Peace Through Music and planetary healing.
The biggest question of our time. Are we alone? Chapter 1 of this experience takes you to alien worlds and distant places in time and space, in search of where alien life might be hiding and what our place is within the history of life. After generations of wondering, the truth is finally within our reach. New research and technologies have brought us closer than ever to an answer – only a few decades in the eyes of some NASA scientists.
The search has led to new discoveries that will blow your mind wide open and give a profound new perspective on human life. The deeper we look, the deeper we see into nature’s imagination, and the more we learn about ourselves. I hope stewing on these thoughts tickles your brain as deeply as it does mine.
In upcoming chapters of Life Beyond we will explore making contact with intelligent life, the potential physics of alien biology, how to survive the end of the universe, and more.
Bruce Lipton guides us through evolutionary stages of life, explaining how this leads to the increase of consciousness across the planet.
Cosmologist Jude Currivan is an enthusiastic and inspirational advocate of the positive view of the transformations we are witnessing on planet Earth. As a scientist she can report with confidence that science can at last conclusively prove and reconcile scientific evidence with ancient wisdom and universal spiritual experience – resolving SAND’s ongoing quest by revealing the unified nature of reality. “Consciousness is not what we have it is what we are” – and this understanding has the power to heal our fragmented perspectives and radically change our collective behaviors, transforming the challenges of our global emergency into the emergence of our conscious evolution.
Author John Van Auken, a Director at the Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.), discusses the multidimensional origins of humankind, through the lens of Edgar Cayce’s reading and the ancient civilizations of Lemuria and Atlantis. Auken’s expertise is mysticism, particularly Egyptian and Christian mysticism and meditation. He has appeared on several television and radio programs, including the Discovery Channel’s, Searching for Atlantis, and the History Channel’s, Digging for the Truth.
I had the honor of speaking to renowned and New York Times best-selling author Whitley Strieber. He began his writing career with a pair of modern-Gothic horror novels, The Wolfen (1981) and The Hunger (1983), which was turned into a feature film by the late great filmmaker Tony Scott.
He is perhaps best known for the third phase of his career, which began with Communion (1989), an autobiographical account of his experiences with strange alien “visitors” who he says came to his cabin in the New York countryside. This #1 New York Times Non-Fiction Bestseller (on the list for 15 weeks) was also turned into a film starring Christopher Walken.
Whitley has written several other thrillers, and two novels about environmental apocalypse, Nature’s End and The Coming Global Superstorm. Superstorm served as an inspiration for Fox’s The Day After Tomorrow (2004), and Strieber later penned the novelization of that film.
“Hate is like coal, it burns out. Love is like heat, it doesn’t.” – The Master of the Key
In this episode, we will be discussing one of Whitley’s most profound books, The Key: A True Encounter.
At two-thirty in the morning of June 6, 1998, Whitley Streiber was awakened by somebody knocking on his hotel room door. A man came in, and everything he said was life-altering.
This is the unsettling and ultimately enlightening narrative of what happened that night. Strieber was never really sure who this strange and knowing visitor was–a “Master of Wisdom”? A figure from a different realm of consciousness? A preternaturally intelligent being? He called him the Master of the Key. The one thing of which Strieber was certain is that both the man and the encounter were real.
The main concern of the Master of the Key is to save each of us from self-imprisonment. “Mankind is trapped,” the stranger tells Strieber. “I want to help you spring the trap.” In a sweeping exchange between Strieber and the stranger–which takes the form of a classical student- teacher dialogue in pursuit of inner understanding–the unknown man presents a lesson in human potential, esoteric psychology, and man’s fate. He illuminates why man has been caught in a cycle of repeat violence and self-destruction–and the slender, but very real, possibility for release.
In its breadth and intimacy, The Key is on par with contemporary metaphysical traditions, such as A Course in Miracles, or even with the dialogues of modern wisdom teachers, such as D.T. Suzuki and Carl Jung.
It was a pleasure speaking to Whitley. Enjoy!

The Heart of the World: A Journey to Tibet’s Lost Paradise tells the story of Ian Baker’s decades-long quest for the literary and geographical sources of Shangri-la, a mythical paradise in the remotest regions of the Himalayas. His research led him on multiple journeys in Tibet as well as into esoteric Tibetan texts describing beyul, or hidden-lands.
Tibetan prophecies proclaim that the greatest of these legendary hidden-lands lies in the world’s deepest gorge, at the eastern edge of the Himalayan range, veiled by a colossal waterfall in the depths of the forbidding Tsangpo gorge. After years of research and investigation, Buddhist scholar and world-class climber Ian Baker and his team made worldwide news by reaching the bottom of the Tsangpo gorge and finding a magnificent 108-foot-high waterfall – the legendary grail of both Western explorers and Tibetan seekers and the prophesied door to the innermost hidden-land of Beyul Pemakö, the Hidden Land Arrayed Like a Lotus.
The Heart of the World recounts one of the most captivating stories of exploration and discovery ever told – an extraordinary journey into one of the wildest and most inaccessible places on earth, a meditation on humankind’s place in nature, and a pilgrimage to the heart of Tibetan Buddhism.
About the Speaker: Ian Baker is an anthropologist, author, and scholar of Tibetan Buddhism and Tantric yoga. He was recognised by The National Geographic Society as one of seven ‘Explorers for the Millennium’ for his fieldwork connected with the Tibetan tradition of hidden-lands (beyul) and the discovery of the lost ‘Falls of the Tsangpo’, the subject of his newly reissued book, The Heart of the World: A Journey to Tibet’s Lost Paradise, which explores the geographical and literary sources of the legend of Shangri-la in the remotest regions of the Himalayas.
