“Psychedelics trigger a unitive state, and meditation trains it.”

So says Naina Eira Gupta, who researches the therapeutic potential of psychedelics and meditation.

Psychedelics work because they disrupt the monkey mind, she asserts. They stop the constant chattering in your head, which is the mind’s MO to perpetuate the story of ‘you’.

Everything we think we have is just that, a story.

“Psychedelics are assisted mind training, I would call it. They provide mental immunity”, says Naina.

Then, meditation trains you to keep that base perception, to see the story for what it is.

“You realize you don’t have to be reactive to a particular thought or feeling, because it’s just a story.“

When the ego dissolves, you become so much more of an effective human being.

“You can fall in love with the world. Everything becomes lighter. You don’t feel so much distance between what you perceive as ‘you’ and the rest of it.”

What Naina hopes for is that more people have access to mind training, “because it’s deeply, deeply transformative”.

Different psychedelic drugs work in different ways. Some can trigger negative experiences if taken irresponsibly. According to Naina, MDMA is one of the best for pro-sociality and connectedness, because it produces very little bad experiences.

Psychedelic experiences can be so transformative that it can be difficult to know what to do with them. Some kind of scaffolding around their use is needed, says Naina.

“Even so, many studies now show that psychedelics are beneficial therapeutically, even just in themselves, even if you don’t have a particular practice around them.”

As a practicing Buddhist, Naina Gupta doesn’t hold a certain metaphysics. The middle way means that you accept that reality cannot be framed or pinned down. Something is, isn’t, is both and is neither, at the same time.

“It’s just unbelievable potential.”

The cause of our suffering is the subject-object duality.

Naina has several meditation practices, and she has trained herself to dream lucidly.

Is this – learning how to liberate oneself from duality with the help of psychedelics, meditation and other spiritual practices – conducive to achieving a more peaceful world?

“If there is any hope, it lies in this.”

“I wouldn't be talking to you today if this wasn't needed.”

Dan Waites displays an impressive depth and insightfulness in the videos on his You Tube channel World Astrology Report, but he actually didn’t start working as a mundane astrologer until 2020 (mundane refers to the use of astrology to understand world events and phases).Dan had studied the subject matter and been mesmerized before that, but when the pandemic happened, it was a watershed moment for him. He realized with stark clarity that several astrologers had predicted the event – not in detail, but that there would be a global event that would shake society.“Then I knew I had to take this seriously. I have to learn this, understand this and devote myself to it”, says Dan.So, how does astrology work, really? Does it even have to do with the stars?“Skeptics often say things like ‘there is no plausible explanation for how astrology works, and therefore it does not work, therefore it’s a figment of your imagination’”.“But astrology is essentially a science of consciousness. It's an interpretation of meaning. And we don’t know how consciousness works! It's a bit ludicrous to expect there’s going to be a simple answer to the question of how astrology works”, says Dan.There are some very interesting astrological cycles that reveal things about the times we are living in. The Jupiter-Saturn cycle, for instance. The two planetary giants meet every 20 years, and during a period of roughly 200 years, they meet in the same astrological element (earth, air, water, fire). ‘Earthiness’ characterized the 19th and 20th centuries, but ‘airiness’ will characterize the period we recently entered.The difference can be seen in the media, according to Waites. In the 200 years of earth, the media was centralized, and there was a sharing of assumptions, even if people didn’t agree politically. Now, in the air era, we have adopted a new communication technology, the internet, which is decentralized, leading to a fragmentation of assumptions and narratives.In one of his essays on Substack, Dan Waites claims that we are in ‘The Hermetic Age’. This has to do with the extremely long Pluto-Neptune cycle. From the late 14th century, these two outer planets (in astrology, Pluto hasn’t lost its planetary status) started to meet in Gemini, the sign of Hermes. They will continue to do so for another 1,800 years or so.As long as the conjunctions took place in the preceding earth sign of Taurus, society was feudal, based on landownership. Then came the printing press, the protestant Reformation and the Copernican revolution. The era of capitalism was ushered in, and power moved away from landowners to bankers.Right now, multiple cycles are suggesting that pivotal events and discoveries are under way in the fields of the UAP phenomenon and of humanity’s deep history. Which is exactly what we are seeing.“An awakening to the truth about ancient history began in the 19th century, such as the interest in Atlantis. It is coming back now”, says Dan.The turbulence on the world scene also has astrological fingerprints. Pluto is currently out of bounds (it exceeds the normal range of declination from the Sun's path) to the south. This coincides with it being in the sign of Aquarius. Both phenomena signify a revolutionary energy.“The last time this happened, we had the French and the American revolutions, and before that we had the protestant Reformation”, explains Dan.Pluto will express this energy until 2035.__________✅ ResourcesDan’s World Astrology ReportWebsiteSubstackYou Tube

“Science isn't about showing off. It’s about attending to unusual data, unusual evidence”, says astrophysicist Avi Loeb.“We can only learn new things from anomalies, from what doesn't line up.”Paying attention to anomalies is precisely what he does as head of the Galileo Project at Harvard, whose purpose is to search for evidence of extraterrestrial technology.Loeb is frustrated. Almost all the research money that is allocated to the search for extraterrestrial life goes to projects for picking up radio signals and scanning for molecular fingerprints of microbes on exoplanets.“It’s like lonely people waiting for a phone call. Nobody might call you”, says Loeb.“And personally, I think microbes are boring. I am more interested in intelligent life. Yes, there are more microbes, but it is arguably easier to detect evidence of technology.”Loeb became famous in 2017 when he suggested that the first detected interstellar object traversing our solar system, named 1I/Oumuamua, might be artificial because of its strange behavior.His suggestion was not well received in the scientific community. He was academically attacked by many colleagues.Now, the third interstellar object ever detected, 3I/Atlas, is hurling past the planets in our home system at breakneck speed. This visitor also features very odd properties. It doesn’t look like a comet. It seems to be extremely large, it doesn’t have the classic cometary tail, its glow is preceding it, the composition of its coma is unique, and its trajectory is in line with the plane of the planets.“If you were to construct a spacecraft that were to visit this solar system, you would make it go in the plane of the planets”, Loeb says.Yet mainstream astronomers call it a comet, or more specifically a “black“ comet.“It’s like having only seen zebras and then suddenly see an elephant and go: ‘Look, a zebra without stripes, and with a trunk’.”Loeb has developed a scale for assessing whether a space object is natural or artificial, where 0 means decidedly natural and 10 means decidedly artificial. Loeb has given 3I/Atlas a 4, the same score he gave 1I/Oumuamua.It might drop on the scale – or climb – as more data is collected. By the end of October 2025 we probably know more, because that is when the object will be at its closest to the sun.Avi Loeb has always been an outlier in the scientific community, he says. He would “trade everything” he has of modern life to go back 95 years, to the time of quantum pioneers like Bohr and Heisenberg.“Because they were open-minded and willing to replace an old worldview with something completely new.”Science is more rigid today, he feels. Paradoxically, this may have to do with the fact that there are so many more scientists today. With a large enough population, ideas tend to regress to the mean.Avi Loeb isn’t afraid of airing ideas that would appear outrageous in conventional quarters. Have there been advanced civilizations on earth millions of years ago? Could our species have been genetically manipulated by interstellar visitors a long, long time ago? Loeb is open to both propositions.“We tend to think we are first. But it’s fully plausible that there was a technologically advanced civilization millions of years ago that was destroyed in a major catastrophe.”

It was a pleasure to have Gary Heseltine back on the program, a former detective turned independent UAP investigator. In 2023, after years of research, he released a book, “Non-Human”, about the 1980 Rendlesham forest incidents (RFI), one of the most spectacular and complex UAP events in history.In July of 2025, a documentary about RFI, “Capel Green”, was released (at the time of recording this video, neither Gary nor I had seen the whole film, only trailers). Gary was involved in the early stages of the production, but he decided to walk away years ago because he wanted to get the book out. He knew he was sitting on unique information.“I wanted to get the truth out there.”In the early days, the RFI was to some extent covered in the media, because of a memorandum a commander of the air force base where the incidents took place released. It described parts of what had been seen and experienced. There was also one open witness.But soon, things began to be covered up by the higher echelons. Gary unveils much of it in his book.One compelling category of evidence the new documentary goes more into than Gary did in his book is the scientific proof that something strange happened. Gary had agreed with the film team not to talk about it in the book. But now he can.“There have been background radiation checks done where people said they saw craft or lights. And yes, there’s weird underground isotopic ratios that shouldn't be there.”The film should be well received in the UFO community, Gary thinks.“But there is still a lot of politics around the RFI. The narrative is being controlled.”One thing the controllers don’t want to talk about is the evidence of a conspicuous second UFO landing, where beings were seen – and filmed – by several witnesses (the whereabouts of the film material is unknown).Gary’s book and the “Capel Green” documentary land in a time of unprecedented UAP disclosure activity. Gary closely follows the legislative process in the US congress. He is both excited and frustrated.“We’ve moved forward slightly, but not enough.”The first witness hearing in 2023 (with whistleblower David Grusch) had a profound impact, but the second one in 2024 didn’t. The UAP Disclosure Act has been gutted twice. Hopefully it can pass in full later this year.There are still attempts at whitewashing and downplaying the subject by the Pentagon and its loyal journalists. But at the same time, people in the know are becoming more open, and new whistleblowers emerge.“The Pentagon is hanging on by their fingernails to keep this story down.”Trump has also appointed many people in prominent positions who are surprisingly open about their wish for UAP transparency, like Intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.A pivotal documentary, “The Age of Disclosure”, premiered at a film festival in March but has so far not gotten general distribution. Gary thinks it is meant to be part of a broader, coherent disclosure event.If official disclosure continues to be stalled, Gary believes there is a risk of ‘catastrophic disclosure’, meaning an incontrovertible mass sighting livestreamed by millions before the public has been prepared for it.Finally, Gary drops a bombshell piece of news: A large, week-long UAP conference with major players, including politicians, is in the works. He points out that he cannot reveal all details and that it is not entirely set in stone yet, but it is supposed to happen somewhere in the Middle East, probably in October.“This UAP conference will be the most important conference in the world”

Humans have always tried to augment and enhance bodily flaws, from eye glasses to prostheses and pacemakers. But something qualitatively different is happening today. The transhumanist movement basically sees humans as biological algorithms.They want to break into the genetic code and the brain and change what a person is into something else. They believe nature has come as far as it can, and now it is we who drive evolution. We are the ones in charge of creating the next version of Homo Sapiens.“It’s a new religion”, says psychologist and philosopher Harald Walach, who has written a comprehensive report about transhumanism.It’s a staunchly materialist, godless religion.Seeing the body as a machine and the brain as a computer are metaphors that can be useful in some instances, like when we have had an accident. But it is a category mistake to take these metaphors to be the whole reality.“It’s like taking the menu for lunch. You can’t eat the menu”, says Harald Walach.A crucial and tricky question is whether the interventions transhumanists envision might mess around with consciousness. Harald distinguishes between psyche and soul.“These interventions can definitely change the mental state of people. But the soul is very likely untouchable.”The transhumanists are a heterogeneous collection of people.“They are various groups with different intentions. Some dedicate their efforts to abolishing death and aging. Some are more on the tech side, connecting human and machine. Others have a more philosophical approach reminiscent of the Nietzschean übermensch.”“A common theme is that they all want to create a transhumanist being with enhanced faculties that are greater than in current humans.”Interestingly, transhumanists aren’t particularly good at science.“I don’t think many scientists are transhumanistic, because scientists generally know about the intricate problems associated with what transhumanists talk about”, says Harald.“Transhumanists are science fanatics who don’t really do science. Many are in the tech industry.”At the core of the transhumanist agenda are medical interventions, in particular genetic manipulation.“We’ve already seen it happening during the pandemic: Genetic prevention technologies masquerading as vaccines”, says Harald.Was there a nefarious agenda?“That’s irrelevant. The thinking, the ideology and the technology were there. As I see it, it is like mushrooms. If you walk in a forest you may not see any mushrooms, but the mycelium is there, under the surface. When the conditions are right, they pop up everywhere.”To materialists, death is the ultimate catastrophe. There are transhumanists, like Aubrey de Grey, who want to abolish it.Ethical and logical objections aside, abolishing death would lead to absurd consequences, Harald points out: The population would quickly increase. By default one would have to prohibit procreation. This in turn would lead to fascistoid governing. Without young people, there would be no new ideas.“Philosophically speaking, life’s finiteness creates meaning. If we don’t die, we don’t need to make any important decisions:, says Harald.He thinks it’s imperative that we have an open discussion about the transhumanist agenda now. The proponents are a minority, but they are influential.“We need to ask ourselves: Are we willing to accept a transcendent realm that is beyond our human grip, that we cannot control?”

Freddy Silva is an author, a speaker and an independent researcher of ancient knowledge and lost civilizations, in particular the temples and other megalithic sites our ancestors built and left behind. The old cultures knew where to build these things to harness the flow of energy. In Freddy Silva’s mind, they are portals.“All of these places around the world that we call temples, for lack of a better word, are located at seismically active spots, and the foundation on which they stand create an electrical charge or current along the landscape.”The builders also carefully chose the rocks they used to build their temples. They would sometimes go hundreds of miles to find the right stones, which have the properties to act as a kind of energy field.“All this makes the laws of physics act differently within these sites”, says Freddy.Very few of the megalithic temples were burial sites. They were used for out of body experiences, shamanism and “accessing information from an astral reference library”.“We can call them portals because they literally punch a hole in the way we view the third dimension, and they get you to access another level of reality.”Today we know that the heightened energetic lines where old megalithic temples are found are telluric currents. NASA has actually mapped them.“Anywhere these telluric currents cross on the surface of the earth, you’ll find a standing stone, a dolmen, a mound, a pyramid, a stonehenge”, says Freddy.Thousands of years ago, people knew how to pick up on these energetic lines. They didn’t really need to build anything to harness the energy. So why did many of them do that? Freddy Silva thinks they wanted to “x-mark” the highly charged places by placing megaliths on them and preserve them, because they knew that humans in the future – us – would forget this knowledge.“That’s the only explanation that makes sense to me.”In fact, not all ancient cultures built megaliths. Neither the indigenous Australians nor the Hopis did, for example. They just knew where the sacred places were.When Christianity arrived, we were well into forgetfulness. Interestingly enough, however, the Gothic cathedrals of the late medieval era were built on sacred sites. The ancient knowledge had gone underground and secretly been preserved and conveyed, starting with the mystery schools of Egypt and continuing with the Essenes and the Gnostics. The Knights templar were one of these groups that were privy to the old wisdom“They were essentially the Essenes under a different name.”The Templars oversaw the erection of some of the most magnificent Gothic cathedrals in Europe in the 12th and 13th century. “They built sacred spaces disguised as catholic churches. This is the best joke in history”, Freddy quips.He believes that the knowledge of “the gods” – how nature really works – goes all the way back to the Atlantean civilization, which collapsed in the Younger Dryas period 12,000 to 13,000 years ago.The cataclysm that ended the previous high civilizations was likely caused by a devastating bombardment of cosmic debris, which gave rise to an obsession our ancestors had with looking at the sky.“Like in Central America. Why this obsession with long range calendars? The Maya have something like 14 calendars, and some cover hundreds of thousands of years.”Our ancestors are telling us a cautionary tale. Today scientists know that the chunks of rock that created the big flood – the bulk of the Taurid meteor stream – are coming back between 2036 and 2042.But Freddy Silva is hopeful. We can be prepared.“The old cultures teach us that we are the Gods we’ve been waiting for. The help is there for us to find.”

Arabella Thaïs is a philosopher in the renaissance person style. Her research spans quantum mechanics, cosmology, chaos theory, literature, aesthetics, higher-dimensional mathematics, ontology, and metaphysics. She runs The Temple of Truth, a school of consciousness and self-realization.

When we throw ourselves into our conversation, it quickly takes off in all conceivable directions.

Beauty

Arabella emphasizes the importance of beauty, in a profound sense of the word.

Beauty and love are not the same, but they are intimately intertwined.

She cites Dante Alighieri, who said beauty will save the world.

“It’s about moral beauty. Beauty is related to truth and the good.”

Beauty is also related to the experience of this life.

Nonhuman intelligence

A few years ago, Arabella had several direct interactions with nonhuman intelligence. She saw lights and orbs appearing and disappearing, and she saw and communicated with shape shifting entities.

“That changed my life forever.”

“They’re here to support us. They help us remember what we already know.”

Free will

We are born with a divine blueprint, Arabella thinks. What about free will, then?

“It’s a paradoxical both-and”, she says.

The script is already written, but it is when we align with the path we chose before we were born here that we truly exert our free will.

“And when you truly believe this, you’re not worried, because you know that everything will work out for you. It’s all perfect.”

The latter assertion raises morally tricky questions.

Everything being perfect doesn’t mean that everything is as it should be, Arabella points out.

“None of the evil stuff is okay. It needs to be resolved and eliminated. But the journey of experience and then transcendence is perfect.” 

A dream world

There are different terms for what the Hindu tradition calls maya, the material illusion we live in. Arabella prefers ‘dream’ before ‘simulation’.

The fact that we all live in this dream means that if we all shared a vision of an ideal reality, we would realize it almost instantly.

“Like in a lucid dream. When you become lucid you can create anything.”

This is also where astrology comes in. Astrological principles, by which every point in spacetime has its particular qualities, are a part of the dream construct.

A new society

How might we reorganize this world? How might we transcend the detrimental hierarchical structures and live according to our true essence?

Arabella makes a case for anarchy, which she means is a misconstrued concept. It doesn't mean chaos, it means organizing organically, without hierarchical leader figures.

“Democracy kind of works, but it’s actually not ideal. We need to move beyond that.”

“The new paradigm necessitates a higher level of consciousness to create a society that is safe, abundant and beautiful.”

Awakening

Arabella had a spontaneous spiritual awakening when she was 27.

“For many years, I was wandering this earth in a state of absolut despair, confused and perturbed. Only through the spontaneous awakening I knew my path. I just remembered everything, who I was and the nature of the universe.”

And what will precipitate humanity’s great awakening?

“It’s multi-faceted.”

Our connection with nonhuman intelligence will be part of it, Arabella thinks. But we will likely also experience systems collapsing faster than ever before, leading to civil unrest. This will force people to realize ‘we can’t go on like this’. We will probably see spontaneous awakenings as well, when people will start remembering.

“And the old materialist paradigm will collapse.”

Temple of Truth

Kirsty Tait describes herself as an entrepreneur turned “soulpreneur”.“You can’t really be an entrepreneur if you’re not connected to your soul”, she says.The last few years she has been following signs in life, which has led her to shuttle back and forth between continents, with a special focus on the Central American nation of Panama. We’ll get back to why.Kirsty accidentally entered entrepreneurship, she says, and years later she also accidentally entered spirituality. She tells a fascinating, uplifting, beautiful and also funny story about how a failure to properly microdose psilocybin changed her life.“I had my whole world shift. It was the ultimate awakening. I went into pure consciousness. I went into past lives. I understood there's no such thing as good and evil. I understood energy, death, birth and rebirth.”The meaning of life?“To be here now and experience whatever it is that you are experiencing.”Kirsty realized that all this new understanding was in fact not new but past memories (including around a hundred past lives). After the psychedelic experience she tried other modalities to achieve a similar inner elevation, particularly breathwork and deep meditation. One day, on the sofa, she plunged into a three hour out-of-body experience.“Breath is the most powerful technique we have. Just sitting in silence and working with the breath is an amazing medicine for your body.”We actually get sneak peeks into the “other side” on a daily basis, Kirsty points out, for example when we sleep and dream.“Consciousness is limitless. The brain limits us because we are told that it limits us.”Are we living in crucial times?“We couldn’t live in any other time than this one. Everything happening now is perfect. it cannot not be perfect. If everything in the world wasn’t happening right now in perfect synchronicity with the existence of the tapestry of life, you would not be here. So, crucial times don’t really exist.”Time is a notoriously elusive concept. But, to be practical about it, what about the historic human integration of our time? Doesn’t that affect us in unique ways?Kirsty isn’t sure. Today we interconnect via technology, but maybe ancient cultures were interconnected spiritually, she thinks. Maybe cultures in different continents that supposedly didn’t have any concept of each other (as far as we know) were in contact in other, natural ways.Kirsty Tait sees a perhaps surprising link between spirituality, authenticity and entrepreneurship.“I honestly don’t think there can be a difference”, she says.“If you’re truly showing up as your authentic self, you are spiritual, regardless of whether you believe in spirituality or not.”“‘Who am I’ and ‘how do I want to show up in the world’. Those are the only two questions we need to ask ourselves.”“When you feel what is true for you, and it really lands, you feel it in your whole body. Your nervous system will calm down. There will be no fight or flight reactions.”Many people perceive the world right now as messy. How to handle that? “Mother Theresa would always go to a peace rally, never to an anti-war rally. Why? The energy in the peace rally promotes peace, and the energy in the anti-war rally promotes war.”Where attention goes, energy flows, as it were.And what about Panama? Kirsty is passionately involved in a project called “The Conscious Island” on a peninsula in Bocas del Toro on the Caribbean coast in western Panama. The idea is to create a conscious community, including an event space and a wellness space, by amalgamating with the traditions of an indigenous community still living on the peninsula.

“You see bald-headed people who have been treated for cancer. ‘You're trying to kill cancer cells, why the hell are you going bald?’

”The provocative rhetorical question is asked by professor Thomas Seyfried, whose research at Boston College will revolutionize our understanding of cancer and other chronic diseases.

“Metabolic therapy kills cancer cells and keeps your hair”, he says.

“People are being brutalized by the system. They’re being treated by people who don’t know the biology and biochemistry behind the disease.”

“Cancer is not a genetic disease, it’s a metabolic problem. The reason everybody says it’s a genetic disease is confirmation bias. It’s been hammered into everybody’s brain”, Seyfried says.

We can see that conventional oncology is not addressing the right problem, because the death rates aren't dropping the way they should, he points out.

"The promise of the gene theory has not come to fruition, nor will it ever do. Meanwhile, thousands of people are dying every day. It’s the greatest tragedy in the history of medicine."

Thomas Seyfried does not dismiss conventional methods like radiation and chemo, but the problem is that those are being employed first, when they should be employed last.

Seyfried contends that cancer is “a remarkably simple disorder” when you understand the biology. But we have made it complicated and mysterious by focusing on downstream phenomena instead of the actual cause, metabolic dysfunction.

“You really have to work hard to get your body to get cancer”, he says.

“Our paleolithic ancestors and those who live according to traditional ways rarely have cancer. Animals in nature rarely have cancer.”

“Before antibiotics and orthopedic surgeons we died from injuries and infections. What’s killing us now, whether it’s dementia, cancer, cardiovascular disease or diabetes, is civilization itself.”

Which means: Not exercising, being under stress, having poor sleep and eating ultra-processed food (sometimes food-like substances).

Our bodies become less and less capable of using oxygen to generate energy. Cells resort to fermentation, like cells in primitive life forms once did. This is the crux of the matter. When cells switch from oxygen to glucose (a sugar) and glutamine (an amino acid) to generate energy, they become cancer cells.

The solution? Starving the tumor.

German doctor Otto Warburg discovered the metabolic mechanism behind dysregulated cell growth already a century ago. But other theories outmaneuvered his findings.

Before rediscovering Warburg’s theory and improving it, Thomas Seyfried was “just as indoctrinated as everybody else”, he says.

Seyfried and his colleagues developed a diet-drug combination to destroy tumors by doing away with the detrimental fuels glucose and glutamine.

A low-carb, high fat diet plus fasting targets glucose (healthy cells can burn fatty acids and ketone bodies, cancer cells cannot), and a “press-pulse” method including certain repurposed anti-parasite drugs targets glutamine. Add exercise.

Patients can keep track of the levels of glucose and ketones in their blood with a simple device.

“We’re getting longer and longer survivors for the so-called terminal cancers.”

One big obstacle to getting established medicine to rethink is that there is no money in metabolic therapy. There’s no pill or shot for Big Pharma to sell. But Seyfried is optimistic:

“When you educate people in certain ways and make certain products that will keep the entire body healthy, this will be a new industry. It’s coming.”

Seyfried's research at Boston College

IHMC Lecture by Seyfried

Danny Sheehan is an acclaimed civil rights attorney. He is at the forefront of the movement advocating for UAP disclosure and transparency, but he has a history of being at the center of a number of famous big cases.

This episode has two parts.

1 The UFO/UAP part

In the 1970s, Danny Sheehan got to see the classified portions of a long-running UFO program called Project Blue Book.

“There they were, the photographs of a crash retrieval. There wasn’t any doubt about what they were. It was a classic UFO.”

Today, he is deeply engaged in the process of shedding light on the UFO cover-up. Whistleblowers have testified before the US Congress, under oath, that nonhuman craft have been retrieved by secret programs for many decades.

Danny wants to see a gradual and responsible disclosure. That’s why he founded the New Paradigm Institute, whose purpose is to push for precisely that, on the political level and in society at large. And it’s getting closer.

“The cat is out of the bag now. It’s running around.”

Before he became an attorney, Danny wanted to be an astronaut, to be able to get into close contact with the extraterrestrial beings he knew were there.

“Many planets in the Universe are billions of years older than ours. Those civilizations have had a lot more time to explore the fundamental questions, like the origin of the universe and the relationship between consciousness and the material realm.”

ET spacecraft seem to operate telepathically, for example.

We also have capabilities like that, but they have been suppressed, Danny contends.

“Institutional religions have kept the secret.”

This means that disclosure is required not only on the part of the government.

“It requires disclosure also on the part of the major religious institutions, which have withheld this information.

”Danny is critical of the nation state and its institutions:

“People need to understand that there is a structure in place that is fundamentally unjust. I discovered this when I came into the world of law.”

“When we encounter an ET civilization that is billions of years in advance of us, we need to reorganize the structures of our planet towards fairness, and to relieve us of the danger of self-imposed thermonuclear destruction.”

2 The JFK part (which also features as a separate video on Youtube)

Danny Sheehan was one of the people who began scouring the JFK files as soon as they were released in mid-March of 2025. In fact, he had been doing that only minutes before this interview.

The JFK assassination connects the dots between several huge political, economic and military crises and events, and it even has a connection to the UFO phenomenon, according to Danny.

It's complicated, but Danny’s explanation makes sense. And if true, it forces us to rewrite history.
