Lisa Williams continues to surprise people with her ability to speak with the dead. In some cases she'll transform the lives of the people she meets who are seeking to connect with their dearly departed. Throughout her series on Lifetime TV, Williams shares stories of people wanting to be reunited with someone from their past, while offering personal observations and insights.

Kala speaks with Lisa Williams about her internationally acclaimed medium and clairvoyant ability to communicate with loved ones who have passed on to the “other side” along with discovering her gift as a young girl, the skeptics and being a wife and mother while talking with the dead.

Transforming the face of psychiatry, Dr. Judith Orloff asserts that we are keepers of an innate intuitive intelligence so perceptive that it can tell us how to heal—and prevent—illness. Yet intuition and spirituality are the very aspects of our wisdom usually disenfranchised from traditional health care.

As a board-certified psychiatrist and assistant professor of psychiatry at UCLA, Dr. Orloff exhibits great courage in drawing upon her own intuitive abilities, evident to her since childhood. Her struggles acknowledging and then finally embracing her gift of heightened intuition are chronicled in Second Sight. Her second book, Dr. Judith Orloff's Guide to Intuitive Healing shows how breakthroughs in healing our body, emotions, and sexuality are accomplished by listening to intuition. Her latest book Positive Energy completes a trilogy of books around awakening intuition and subtle energy. Positive Energy takes a probing look at the epidemic of exhaustion in America and how we can reverse it using specific strategies to build energy and combat draining people. Positive Energy is a national and Los Angeles Times bestseller which as been translated into 23 languages.

First came the books, The Celestine Prophecy and The Tenth Insight, then the movie... "Based on James Redfield's worldwide best-selling novel, The Celestine Prophecy is a spiritual adventure film chronicling the discovery of ancient scrolls in the rainforests of Peru. The prophecy and its nine key insights predict a worldwide awakening, arising within all religious traditions, that moves humanity toward a deeper experience of spirituality".

Now comes CELESTINE VISION... "THE ELEVENTH INSIGHT-EXTENDING PRAYER FIELDS"

James and Salle Redfield are taking the spiritual experience to a deeper level. As they describe this insight, "Feel the Energy, as people gather from all around the world, connect together, and envision a better world. Something special happens when we are connected electronically via telephones and internet. We can literally feel the boost and clarity of everyone's intention".

"Our twice-monthly gatherings have been making a powerful difference, both in people's individual lives and the world at large. Many of you have written us saying that the energy generated from this network of spiritually-minded participants is "indescribable," and we look forward to continuing this healing circle of focused prayer. Like all prayer experience devoted to helping others, many participants have felt the results in their own bodies and received guidance for their own lives".

"Research tells us that the more people praying together, the more powerful the prayer and the greater the level of energy felt by the participants. We invite you to join the largest regular prayer network in the world. If you would like to take an active role in maintaining a circle of positive intention across the globe, while going deeper and heightening your own spirituality, join us".

Kala speaks with Z. Budapest, author of Summoning the Fates. During the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, Z. Budapest narrowly escaped a massacre. Was it chance that spared her life, or destiny? In Summoning the Fates, Budapest, a pioneer of the women's spirituality movement, introduces us to the three Fates that rule our lives. Not even the gods and goddesses can escape these raw forces of nature presiding over the past, present, and future. Budapest uses fairy tales, historical lore, and personal anecdotes to describe the three sacred sisters who are especially active during our thirty-year life cycles: Urdh (youth), Verdandi (adulthood), and Skuld (the crone years).

Want a taste of the cosmic soup bubbling in Fate's cauldron? Budapest also offers heartfelt advice, exercises, and rituals to help you connect with the Fates and embrace your own unique destiny.

More About Z Budapest:
Zsuzsanna Emese Budapest was born in Budapest, Hungary, during a big winter storm on January 30, 1940. Her mother, Masika Szilagyi, was a medium and a practicing witch who supported herself and her daughter with her art, as a sculptress. Masika's themes always celebrated the Triple Goddess and the Fates, and Zsuzsanna, "Z," grew up respecting and appreciating Mother Nature as a god. The poverty of postwar Europe and political oppression under the Russian occupation made Z fiercely political, so when the Hungarian Revolution broke out in 1956, she took her destiny into her own hands and became one of those sixty-five thousand political refugees who left the country, mostly young workers and students like herself. She finished high school in Innsbruck, graduated from a bilingual gymnasium, and won a scholarship to the University of Vienna where she studied languages.

Z emigrated to the United States in 1959, became a student at the University of Chicago, married, and gave birth to two sons. Her family's spiritual tradition, however, started seeping back into her life, and she practiced solo worship of the Goddess at her home altar in her backyard. When she entered her Saturn cycle at the age of thirty, she became involved with the women's liberation movement in Los Angeles and became an activist herself, staffing the Women's Center there for many years. There she recognized a need for a spiritual dimension so far lacking in the feminist movement and started the Women's Spirituality Movement. She founded the Susan B. Anthony Coven Number l, the first feminist witches' coven, which became the role model for thousands of other spiritual groups being born and spreading across the nation. She wrote The Holy Book of Women's Mysteries (Weiser Publishers, 1989) which was originally published in 1975 as The Feminist Book of Lights and Shadows. This book served as the first hands-on book to lead women into their own spiritual/Goddess heritage. Z was arrested in 1975 for reading Tarot cards to an undercover policewoman. She lost the trial but won the issue, and the law against psychics was struck down nine years later. Z has led rituals, lectured, taught classes, given workshops, written articles tirelessly, and published in hundreds of women's newspapers across the country. She has powerfully influenced many of the future teachers and writers about the Goddess. She is the star of her own cable TV show called 13th Heaven and acts as the director of the Women's Spirituality Forum, a nonprofit organization sponsoring a monthly lecture series in the Bay Area about the Goddess, spirituality retreats, and annual spiral dances on Halloween. Z founded and sponsors the Dianic University Online, a vagina-friendly online school for Dianic Wicca and Goddess studies for women. More info: www.zbudapest.com

Kala speaks with Margaret Starbird about her book, 14 Steps to Awaken the Sacred Feminine. The 14 steps workbook and guide invites you to form small groups or "circles" to explore your own spiritual journey using Mary Magdalene's "story" as a template for your own experience and spiritual "journey." Joan Norton is a Jungian therapist, and author of the book Mary Magdalene Within and has been facilitating a "Magdalene Circle" for several years in Los Angeles. Based on this experience of women sharing in a small group, she and Margaret Starbird have collaborated to create this workbook to encourage formation of women's circles.

Kala discuss the "work" with Byron Katie. The Work is a simple yet powerful process of inquiry that teaches you to identify and question the stressful thoughts that cause all the suffering in the world. It's a way to understand what's hurting you, a way to end all your stress and suffering. People who do The Work faithfully report life-changing results including: Eliminate stress: Live without anxiety or fear, Improve relationships: Have a new sense of connection and intimacy with your spouse, your parents, your children, and with yourself, Reduce anger, See perfection in situations that were once debilitating, Act more intelligently and effectively, Energy: Experience a new sense of vigor and well-being and Peace: Learn how to love what is, and find lasting inner peace.

More About Byron Katie:
Byron Katie, founder of The Work, has one job: to teach people how to end their own suffering. As she guides people through the powerful process of inquiry called The Work, they find that their stressful beliefs—about life, other people, or themselves— radically shift and their lives are changed forever. Based on Byron Katie's direct experience of how suffering is created and ended, The Work is an astonishingly simple process, accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds, and requires nothing more than a pen and paper and an open mind.

Through this process, anyone can learn to trace unhappiness to its source and eliminate it there. Katie (as everyone calls her) not only shows us that all the problems in the world originate in our thinking: she gives us the tool to open our minds and set ourselves free. Katie is the author of three bestselling books Loving What Is, I Need Your Love—Is That True? and the recently published A Thousand Names for Joy: Living in Harmony with the Way Things Are.

The first film in the Staya Erusa series was the pilot Staya Erusa - The Beginning. This film was released in 2006 (only in the Netherlands) and was a big hit in the Dutch art houses, both in numbers of visitors, as in the feedback that we received afterwards. Many appeared to have been touched by the insights; people that were completely new to this matter, but also people that are well up in this subject. Staya Erusa was worldwide the first film ever to be launched simultaneously via three media: in cinema’s, on DVD and on the Internet.

Together we will change the world

The second Notion Picture Staya Erusa - Find the Book of Knowledge was released for the world’s audience summer 2007. Prominent scientists and bestselling authors contributed to the film, because just like we, they realize that it takes a paradigm shift to increase Mankind’s consciousness. Together with us, they want to make this reality more accessible.

Staya Erusa: a mission revealed by ‘metallic voices’

When Uri Geller stupified the world with his powers 35 years ago, that rapidly made him famous. He was invited to the farthest places, visited courts, talked with government officials. Also scientists were intrigued, but even the most prestigious laboratories studying Geller, could not explain his talents. The new film Staya Erusa - Find the Book of Knowledge describes what happened in those days and reveals the answers. Its makers, Harry Beckers, Ronald Jan Heijn and Uri Geller, call it ‘a mission which scope and reach only now is becoming clear’, but which was revealed already back in 1973 by mysterious ‘metallic voices’.

The film explains the world’s challenges

Ronald Jan Heijn: “Words such as power, money, war, will get a different meaning, after seeing the film. The film explains the world’s challenges and offers solutions through literally a broader way of thinking. This broader way of thinking is obtained by explaining consciousness itself. The true understanding of consciousness puts issues such as euthanasia, reincarnation, but also global warming and Uri Geller’s talents in a completely different perspective.”

In October, paranormalist Uri Geller stars in the new NBC Television Series Phenomenon, a live competition series that leads the search for the next great mentalist. This show will actually serve as an introduction of the London-based Geller to a younger generation of TV viewers in the US as well as a reintroduction to an older American public. Geller, who was noted for the many paranormal events which took place around him, including his ability to bend spoons with his mind, was world-famous in the 70's and 80's and considered by science to be an astonishing as well as puzzling enigma. The media attention surrounding Phenomenon will undoubtedly cast enormous interest in another fascinating project Geller is involved with, which concentrates on a larger reality: Staya Erusa Find the Book of Knowledge.

Kala speaks with Z. Budapest, author of The Holy Book of Women's Mysteries, a seminal text that contains invaluable information on Dianic witchcraft and spells, including everyday magick, sabbat rituals, and divination methods; a section on how vegetarian theories and politics relate to witchcraft and the feminine aspect; and a good deal of information on goddesses and how the patriarchal religions distorted old myths to serve their own needs. There are several unique and beautiful Rites of Passage for women and men that you don't often find, and Budapest's personal life stories are an equally valuable read, from her escape across the mountains from Communist Hungary to her fight for women's religious freedom upon moving to America.

Kala speaks with Guy Finley about his book, The Essential Laws of Fearless Living. Fearless Living is a step-by-step manual for all who aspire to realize their ultimate potential as a human being. In its seven chapters of forty concise essays, Finley explores deeply personal and meaningful ideas, revealing the secrets of the universe itself; but he does so in a way that makes the journey fascinating, compelling, and comforting at the same time.

Becoming Psychic provides a lively dialogue between a clinical psychologist who believes that he has had a number of psychic (or "paranormal") experiences and a research psychologist and parapsychologist who attempts to put these reports in a scientific framework. The anecdotes make for fascinating reading and the scientific responses are relayed in a reader-friendly manner. Readers who have had similar experiences can begin to understand their own glimpses of future events, remarkable recoveries from major or minor illnesses, or knowledge of what is happening to a loved one hundreds of miles away.

Paul Von Ward, author of Our Solarian Legacy, writes in the Introduction: "Becoming Psychic is a book for everyone who seeks meaning among the non-ordinary experiences of life. Telepathy, clairvoyance, psychokinesis, precognition, mind/body healing, prayer, and synchronicity are all illustrated in personal terms by Dr. Kierulff and placed in scientific context by Stanley Krippner-a successful merging of the perspectives of the experiencer and the scientist."

Kala speaks with Richard Bandler, the co-developer of NLP, about Neuro-Linguistic Programming and hypnosis and his work in the field. Neuro-Linguistic Programming™ (NLP™) is defined as the study of the structure of subjective experience and what can be calculated from that and is predicated upon the belief that all behaviour has structure. Since the models that constitute NLP describe how the human brain functions, they are used in order to teach them. NLP is not a diagnostic tool. It can only be applied and can therefore only be taught experientially.

One of the most mysterious artifacts that has been discovered upon our planet are known as the Crystal Skulls. A Crystal Skull is simply defined as an ancient artifact discovered made from various type of quartz crystals that has the appearance of a human size (or larger) and shaped skull. Most of these ancient Crystal Skulls have been uncovered near or within ancient ruins located in Mexico or Central America, possibly linked to the Mesoamerican cultures of this region. However within recent years, crystal skulls are now surfacing or being reported in other parts of the world such as in South America, Europe and Asia. Kala speaks with Joshua Shapiro about the history of the crystal skulls and the research being done currently.

Kala speaks with Paul Davids, producer of the film, Jesus in India. Just released is the DVD of the most controversial film ever to play on Sundance Channel, “Jesus in India,” provoking one critic to declare, “This is a feature documentary sure to make Bill O’Reilly choke on his eggnog.” Chosen as a TV Highlight by the New York Times and Los Angeles Times, the film is praised by renowned critic Pete Hammond as “fascinating and profound, a deeply spiritual journey certain to make you think and question in ways you never have before.” Yogananda’s Self-Realization Fellowship is calling it a groundbreaking film, while Atlantis Rising magazine says: “This film....has the potential to revolutionize Christianity by virtue of the humanization of Jesus.”

“Jesus in India” explores the mystery of Jesus’ whereabouts between the ages of 12 and 30, a period known as the “Hidden Years” or “Lost Years.” The New Testament offers only one vague sentence relating to those 18 missing years. Leading the film’s investigation across 4,000 miles of India and beyond was Edward T. Martin, author of two books on the subject: Jesus in India: King of Wisdom -- The Making of the Film and New Findings on Jesus’ Lost Years and King of Travelers: Jesus’ Lost Years in India.

In 1993, building on years of laboratory experiments, Dr. Roger Nelson began using random event generator technology in the field to register correlations of data with special states of group consciousness. This work led to the world-spanning GCP network, designed to look for indications of a global consciousness responding to major world events like destructive earthquakes, the beginnings of war or terror attacks like 9/11, as well as worldwide holidays and celebrations like New Years Eve. After several years of purely scientific focus, with careful research yielding increasingly persuasive evidence, Dr. Nelson has begun to make public presentations about the GCP. The findings imply that we can be creative participants in determining our future, and that we have the capacity and responsibility for conscious evolution. Dr. Nelson is the upcoming president of the international Parapsychology Association.

Kala speaks with Don Miguel Ruiz about the power of the Divine Feminine. Don Miguel's mother, Sara Macias Vasquez ("Mother Sarita"), gifted healer, recently passed away at the age of 98. "Mother Sarita", was widely recognized as a powerful, gifted faith healer. Raised in rural Mexico, she learned ancient Toltec wisdom from her shaman grandfather, and passed this wisdom on to her son, author don Miguel Ruiz (The Four Agreements). In 2007, Mother Sarita was inducted into The San Diego Women’s Hall of Fame for her contributions to healing and teaching, and for her role as an influential mentor. Her message Si se puede, “Yes, it’s possible” was an inspiration to many. Her courageous and loving spirit will be greatly missed.

Faery Seership the truths we seek can only be found within ourselves, within nature, and within our relationships to nature. At the center of the Faery Tradition lies the Tree of Enchantment: the symbol for these relationships and for the threefold life of humanity. At each level of the tree, there are attending spirit forces that vary from beings of light to beings of shadow, from the ancestors of humanity to the architects of form and nature, from the destiny of our planet to the creation forces of the universe. The tree’s roots grow through the lower world, where all life originates and the dead travel, its trunk and lower branches reach out across the middle world, where elemental forces and the four directions guide us, and its highest branches reach the into the upper world and the Star realm.

Kala speaks with Orion Foxwood, who shares folk tradition and extensive academic research into the Old Religion of Faery Seership. Based on Appalachian traditions, Wiccan studies, Celtic oral traditions, and the Craft from Western and Northern Europe, The Tree of Enchantment (Weiser Books, October 2008) offers the student of Faery Tradition both introductory and advanced visionary practices and authentic tools to learn to navigate the three realms of humanity. With diligence and an open heart, the reader will learn to cross The River of Blood, pass through The Gate of Awakening, and over The River of Stars.

Kala speaks with Marguerite Manning about her book: Cosmic Karma: Understanding Your Contract With The Universe, a spiritual guide to true self-awareness because it’s an astrological self-help book for the soul. By teaching you to study your birth chart in the same way ancient astronomers believed it should be studied - as a universal birth map of your soul's chosen energies for this lifetime – this book compels you to discover the most empowering universal secret of all: your birth energies only reflect your ability to be great and shine bright in this lifetime because they’re actually a celestial documentation of your soul’s promise to aim higher and do better than it did in the last one. In short, your birth chart is your soul’s Contract with the Universe. It can’t help but reveal where you’re destined to succeed in the material world because it illuminates your soul’s promise to evolve in the spiritual one. Who knew? Certainly not us, and that’s our dilemma. We humans have no conscious memory of our unconscious past. Who then, is responsible for keeping this contract? Certainly us, and that’s our even bigger dilemma. Learn why your Sun sign was critical to your soul’s growth yesterday, and why your Sun house is pivotal to yours today. Better yet, learn how to finally stop avoiding Saturn's depressing karmic classroom; accepting Neptune's blue-green invitation to the Twilight Zone and leaving hair-trigger Pluto alone in the complaint department. After all, you can’t ignore your soul’s commitments to the cosmos and then wonder why life won’t sparkle, love won’t sizzle and you won’t dazzle. Your destiny is waiting.

Kala speaks with Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell, Founding Minister and CEO of the Unity Center in San Diego. Rev. Wendy with the Unity School of Christianity and the Association of Unity Churches is presenting a six-part webcast series entitled Jesus and the Awakening to God-Consciousness on www.unity.fm that explores this controversial yet expansive view of Jesus and his teachings in conversations with Deepak Chopra. Each segment will be available free of charge. A recent Pew Forum found 68 percent of adult Americans believe there's more than one true way to interpret the teachings of their religion. "If they knew there was a path like Unity's," speculates Craig-Purcell, "vast numbers would be surprised and delighted. The Unity movement, founded in 1889 by Charles and Myrtle Fillmore in their Kansas City living rom, has taught and practiced an expansive, inclusive, and universal understanding of Jesus' teachings for nearly 120 years. According to Paula Coppel, vice president of Communications at Unity School of Christianity in Unity Village, MO, “It was the enlightened state that Jesus was both demonstrating and teaching. This Web series contends that Jesus was not trying to start a new religion, nor was he aiming his teachings at some people and not others. He was pointing the way for all of us to experience the awakening that he himself had experienced.” This is an important and liberating perspective. "We’re not trying to change anyone’s mind or beliefs. We’re just offering an alternative view," says Coppel. "We understand that this material is controversial and will probably upset some viewers," says Craig-Purcell. “But Jesus, after all, was controversial himself and radical in his time, so we are in good company." We urge you to let your audience know about this groundbreaking media event.

People are also shown to incarnate in karmic soul groups. Many times married couples come back together, which explains the phenomenon of "love at first sight."

Mitchell is a brilliant and intriguing man who turned his attention to the nature of consciousness. Explore the realms of space and time...

More About Dr. Edgar Mitchell:
On January 31, 1971, Navy Captain Dr. Edgar Mitchell embarked on a journey into outer space that resulted in becoming the sixth man to walk on the moon. The Apollo 14 mission was NASA's third manned lunar landing. This historic journey ended safely nine days later on February 9, 1971. It was an audacious time in the history of mankind. For Mitchell, however, the most extraordinary journey was yet to come.

As he hurtled earthward through the abyss between the two worlds, Mitchell became engulfed by a profound sensation "a sense of universal connectedness." He intuitively sensed that his presence, that of his fellow astronauts, and that of the planet in the window were all part of a deliberate, universal process and that the glittering cosmos itself was in some way conscious. The experience was so overwhelming Mitchell knew his life would never be the same.

Scientist, test pilot, naval officer, astronaut, entrepreneur, author and lecturer, Dr. Mitchell's extraordinary career personifies humankind's eternal thrust to widen its horizons as well as its inner soul.

His academic background includes a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Management from Carnegie Mellon University, a Bachelor of Science from the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School and a Doctor of Science in Aeronautics and Astronautics from MIT. In addition he has received honorary doctorates in engineering from New Mexico State University, the University of Akron, Carnegie Mellon University and a ScD from Embry-Riddle University.

Dr. Mitchell has received many awards and honors including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the USN Distinguished Medal and three NASA Group Achievement Awards. He was inducted to the Space Hall of Fame in 1979 and the Astronaut Hall of Fame in 1998. He was a nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2005.

After retiring from the Navy in 1972, Dr. Mitchell founded the Institute of Noetic Sciences to sponsor research into the nature of consciousness as it relates to cosmology and causality. In 1984, he was a co-founder of the Association of Space Explorers, an international organization of those who have experienced space travel.

He is the author of "Psychic Exploration," 1974, "The Way of the Explorer," 1996, (Third edition, 2006) as well as dozens of articles in both professional and popular periodicals. He has devoted the last 35 years to studying human consciousness and psychic and paranormal phenomena in the search for a common ground between science and spirit.

More About Don Miguel Ruiz...
Born into a family of healers, Don Miguel Ruiz was raised in rural Mexico by a curandera (healer) mother and a nagual (shaman) grandfather. The family anticipated that Miguel would embrace their centuries-old legacy of healing and teaching. Instead, distracted by modern life, Miguel chose to attend medical school and become a surgeon.
A near-death experience changed his life. Late one night in the early 1970s, he awoke suddenly, having fallen asleep at the wheel of his car. At that moment the car crashed into a wall of concrete. He remembers that he was not in his physical body as he watched himself pull his two friends to safety. Stunned by this experience, he began an intensive practice of self-inquiry. He devoted himself to the mastery of the ancient ancestral wisdom, studying earnestly with his mother, and completing an apprenticeship with a powerful shaman in the Mexican desert. For more than two decades, Don Miguel Ruiz has worked to impart this wisdom to his students through lectures, workshops, and journeys to sacred sites around the world.

The Rhine Research Center is pleased to present Dr. Erlendur Haraldsson from the University of Iceland, who will be lecturing on: “EMPIRICAL INQUIRY INTO CASES OF CHILDREN WHO CLAIM TO REMEMBER A PAST LIFE”. Professor Haraldsson will present some cases from Lebanon, Sri Lanka, and Iceland, and describe how they were investigated, their characteristics, and give an overview of the major findings in this area of research. He has published many papers on this subject and is author of five books. He has investigated numerous cases of children who claim to remember a previous life, particularly in Sri Lanka and Lebanon. His investigations have centered on the question of whether statements made by these children can be verified and if some person can be found that fits the description made by the children, as well as examining psychological, religious and cultural explanations for this phenomenon.

According to Don Miguel Ruiz, everything we do is based on agreements we have made — agreements with ourselves, with other people, with God, with life. But the most important agreements are the ones we make with ourselves. In these agreements we tell ourselves who we are, how to behave, what is possible, what is impossible. One single agreement is not such a problem, but we have many agreements that come from fear, deplete our energy, and diminish our self-worth.

In The Four Agreements, Don Miguel reveals the source of self-limiting agreements that rob us of joy and create needless suffering. When we are ready to change these agreements, there are four deceptively simple, yet powerful agreements that we can adopt as guiding principles. Based on ancient Toltec wisdom, the Four Agreements offer a powerful code of conduct that can rapidly transform our lives to a new experience of freedom, true happiness, and love.

Today on Explore Your Spirit, we're speaking with Will Arntz, Producer of WHAT THE BLEEP DO WE KNOW? What the Bleep is part documentary, part story, and part elaborate and inspiring visual effects and animations. In the movie, the protagonist, Amanda, played by Marlee Matlin, finds herself in a fantastic life-altering experience when her daily, uninspired life literally begins to unravel, revealing the uncertain world of the quantum field hidden behind what we consider to be our normal, waking reality.

The film employs animation to realize the radical knowledge that modern science has unearthed in recent years. Powerful cinematic sequences explore the inner-workings of the human brain. Quirky animation introduces us to the smallest form of consciousness in the body -- the cell. Dazzling visuals reinforce the film’s message in an exciting, powerful way. Done with humor, precision, and irreverence, these scenes are only part of what makes this film unique in the history of cinema, and a true box-office winner.

More about What the Bleep Do We Know? and Will Arntz...
Producer Will Arntz shares his insights of how he was led to create the movie and discusses the research and making of the What the Bleep movie. What the Bleep has a new release, What the Bleep, Down the Rabbit Hole Quantum Edtion, as well as a Movie Soundtrack CD, books and more online at whatthebleep.com

Kala has one of her favorite authors, John Michael Greer back on the show, this time speaking about his book: The Druid Magic Handbook. Described as the first manual of magical practice in Druidry. The book breaks new ground, teaching Druids how to practice ritual magic for practical and spiritual goals within their own tradition. What sets The Druid Magic Handbook apart is that it does not require the reader to use a particular pantheon or set of symbols. Although it presents one drawn from Welsh Druid tradition, it also shows the reader how to adapt rites and other practices to fit the deities and symbols most meaningful to them. This cutting edge system of ritual magic can be used by Druids, Pagans, Christians, and Thelemites alike.

Kala speaks with  Robert J. Grant who explores the mystical significance of Archangel Michael’s guiding influence in the psychic work of Edgar Cayce; the significance of Michael as a powerful force for positive change and the vast scheme of humanity’s spiritual evolution — from the time of Enoch the Prophet, to our present age of spiritual awakening.  Rob’s inspirational presentation outlines positive approaches to change; to look beyond the world of appearances, and choose love over fear.

Kala brings back Dr. Steven Hairfield, who was previously on the show to speak about A Metaphysical Interpretation of the Bible. This time she speaks with him about the 12 Principles of Karma. Dr. Hairfield speaks on Oriental and Buddhist philosophies of the path of the Monk and how Eastern traditions follow the principles of Newton’s third law of cause and effect, all be it older than the mathematical proof of the law.” There are twelve principles of karma of which we, in this part of the world, misunderstand and pay little or no heed. We plow along in life with very little mindfulness of what we set in motion. Kala and Steven discuss the principles and offer ideas on how to balance the effects of our cause, the idea of the principle of Alpha and the Omega.

More About Dr. Steven Hairfield:
Dr. Hairfield's search for peaceful answers and higher understanding guided his steps within the walls of a Zen Buddhist monastery in Quang Ngai, South Vietnam, where he would take refuge and study whenever he could. His natural curiosity, blended with a very acute intuitive sense led him to deeper questions of life and the purpose of self. The monks began to insist that he should learn of Issa. He then learned that Issa was in fact Jesus. He later learned that Issa, Jesus, had spent much time in what is now known today as India, Pakistan, Ladak, Nepal, and Tibet before returning to the Middle East to carry out His mission. This truly inspired his personal search for knowledge and a passion to somehow recreate the Master’s 18 years not mentioned in the Bible. He had set a goal that would intrigue and shock him later, but first, he had to understand what made the human mind work in the fashion that it does. Upon his return to the United States he studied for and received a B.A. in Psychology. Then pushed by his dream for Universal Truth, he traveled to India following an inner urge which led him to his greatest teachers and lessons, Tibetan Masters. They guided him through India, Nepal, and twice into Tibet, they smuggled him into the later as it was Red Chinese with closed borders at the time. While in this part of the world he adapted to the life of a monk, and for many years he continued his research in the Far East and the path of Jesus while proving to himself that indeed He had been there studying.

When he returned home once more after working with his eastern teachers he wanted to understand the belief system and studied the greatest belief system of all and received an M.A. in Religion and Theology, becoming quite interested and fascinated by the field of Metaphysics in the process. He knew by what he had already learned that there was another message contained in the idea of religion and the Bible. Thus some years later he went back to the books and received his Doctorate in Metaphysics. Through his years of studies with Zen and Tibetan Monks, Ishaya Monks, as well as the Cree and Blackfoot Native Traditions, this American Monk offers an approach to understanding how we influence our own paths in life and why we experience what we do.

For over thirty years, Stephen Braude has studied the paranormal in everyday life, from extrasensory perception and psychokinesis to mediumship and materialization. The Gold Leaf Lady and Other Parapsychological Investigations is a highly readable and often amusing account of his most memorable encounters with such phenomena. Here Braude recounts in fascinating detail five particular cases -- some that challenge our most fundamental scientific beliefs and others that expose our own credulousness. Braude begins with a south Florida woman who can make thin gold-colored foil appear spontaneously on her skin. He then travels to New York and California to test psychokinetic superstars who claim to move objects using only their minds. Along the way, Braude also investigates the startling allegations of K.R., a policeman in Annapolis who believes he can transfer images from photographs onto other objects, including his own body and Ted Serios, a deceased Chicago elevator operator who could make a variety of different images appear on Polaroid film. Ultimately, Braude considers his wife's surprisingly fruitful experiments with astrology, which she has used to guide professional soccer teams to the top of their leagues, as well as his own personal experiences with synchronicity --a phenomenon, he argues, that may need to be explained in terms of a refined, extensive, and dramatic form of psychokinesis.

Kala speaks with Marjorie Hilliard about her book, "Energy Enlightenment do you know the way home?" In her book, Marjorie reaches out to Lightworkers around the world to inspire them

Marjorie discusses how the Ego Consciousness plays a major role in your life and how to recognize and deal with it.

Lucy Cavendish explains: "The origins of the tarot deck are as old as the written word: its unique spiritual imagery and use as a tool for insight and prophecy has long been a mysterious part of many different cultures and eras. But now it is time to recreate its magic and mystic symbolism for the present – a time when men and women are positive, free and more able than ever to lead lives of authenticity, creativity, love and laughter. This is not so much a reinvention as a rejuvenation of the traditional medieval Tarot – created out of the belief that modern lives need a modern deck to give them relevant, easy to understand, practical magical guidance". She continues: "It is my heartfelt wish that you not only find wisdom in the Oracle Tarot, but that you find working with them easy, simple, practical, just a little mystical, and very fulfilling. The enchanted form of help your Oracle Tarot can provide you with will always be joyful and optimistic – there are no frightening images, or moments to be found within this deck. This certainly does not mean I've avoided the tough stuff – but we know that lessons and tests are easier to learn and face when you can work through them with courage. Fear incapacitates – hope inspires courage. Hope and courage, working together, create positive change, and positive change is, perhaps, the ultimate goal of the Oracle Tarot.

Peter Calhoun has been inspiring, guiding, and teaching people how to re-establish their connection with the Earth and reclaim their Spiritual Powers for the past thirty years. He has helped to facilitate the transformation of people to experience wholeness, unity, joy, and love, through personal experiences and connections with the Infinite Divine. His new book released in 2007, Soul On Fire is described as a magical collection of stories describing the awakening of spiritual powers of an Episcopal Priest turned Shaman – powers which have usually been ascribed to eastern masters or traditional shamans.

Within these pages we learn about the “Path of Return” to our wondrous Earth as a means by which we can reclaim our original soul powers. Soul on Fire is an inspirational guide for long-time seekers and those just beginning their journey alike.

At a time when old modalities no longer seem to be working for many people, the stories in this book reveal a different way of thinking, feeling, and being.

More About Peter Calhoun...
Peter Calhoun is a graduate from Auburn University and the Episcopal Seminary of Alexandria, Virginia. After his ordination, he served as an Episcopal priest for eight years in three parishes and a mission church in the Atlanta, GA area. During his work as a priest, Calhoun underwent a spontaneous awakening of some of the healing and intuitive abilities described in his autobiographical book, SOUL ON FIRE: A TRANSFORMATIONAL JOURNEY FROM PRIEST TO SHAMAN. This awakening included a series of disturbing visions of the possible futures of the Earth. It was these events, along with Calhoun’s deepening concern over the state of our disconnection from the Earth and her environment that caused him to make a reluctant departure from the institutional church and embark on the path of modern shamanism that has been his life for more than three decades.

Calhoun currently teaches workshops and leads sacred wilderness journeys and vision quests in Utah’s Canyonlands National Park as well as in the Great Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. He also meets with individuals for healing, intuitive counseling, and private apprenticeship in modern shamanism. More about Peter Calhoun at www.petercalhoun.com

Does the story of Noah’s flood carry a different message than what we are taught? Was there a global flood? Science now knows that the size of the ship would be impossible today verses thousands of years ago.Is the Ark of the Covenant something different than a powerful golden box? Could it simply be a unified human with their energy body or soul! Who was Jesus in reality? Was He human, God or both? Was He born Divine or did He become that way? Are we all the same idea? Was He taught, or did he learn how to accomplish what He did? Why is there nothing of His early life? Where was He and where did He go during the missing 18 years of his life? Was He ever in any other area of the world? There is proof that He was not only in India, Nepal and Tibet, but was also taught there. Did the early churches desire us not to know these truths and instead have led us away from them? Do they still not want us to know what He knew?

Why are there over 250 mythological records of virgin births and yet only one accepted as truth? Did you know that not only the Christ but Odin, Hercules, and Alexander the Great all have this same record? All others are doubted as truth except one. What does the ancient Aramaic word virgin truly mean?

Kala speaks with Kevin Todeschi, Executive Director of Edgar Cayce's Association of Research and Enlightenment about his new book, God in Real Life. In his book, Kevin explores questions including: What if it was truly understood that individuals can have real encounters with the Divine, even in this modern world? What might happen to our collective worldview if we suddenly realized that, in truth, there is a caring God very much concerned about each and every one of us? Presented in this new book are personal accounts from people of all ages, races, and religions who have one thing in common: an experience with the Divine. Also included are historical examples found in the lives of such individuals as Padre Pio, Vivekananda and Irina Tweedie. Their stories suggest that the time has come for our 21st century world to acknowledge that there is much more to us than a simple physical body. Perhaps the time has come to acknowledge that we are never really alone.

In ANOTHER PLACE, ANOTHER TIME, Australian author C.D. Montana tells the amazing true story of how the spirit world taught her about her past life as the Lakota warrior Crazy Horse. Famous for his victory against General Custer and his troops in the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876, the legendary Crazy Horse is an icon of American history. Montana describes her life-changing trips to the United States, where spirits led her on explorations through the Black Hills in South Dakota and the Beaver Valley in Nebraska, the lands that meant so much to Crazy Horse. Her feelings of belonging were unmistakable. And then the spirit world guided her to the grave of Crazy Horse—a site unknown to any living person. Montana also describes her past life karma and how it unfolded. In the author’s present life, Crazy Horse’s spirit was paid back for actions and deeds done against him that ultimately caused him to be killed. The breathtaking concrete evidence uncovered by Montana has led her to accept—without a doubt—that she once lived as Crazy Horse.

Your search for understanding and achievement has just dramatically escalated!

We’re not talking about intuition here. These are newly discovered principles of understanding we all possess. These intelligences are something we use all the time. With these 13 intelligences now uncovered we can see how we can see them natural. If opinions conflict, then an expanded model must be engaged. How we do and don’t use them. We can identify the blocks in your process. This will dramatically increase your potential. With the discovery of these principals of our natural intelligences, we now have simple, clear-cut scientific methods for understanding ourselves and our problems. Additionally, we can now enhance our abilities to achieve higher goals.

After a lifetime of research and experience, it is abundantly clear that achievement, success, accomplishment does not occur by accident, genetics or position. It occurs because of deeper issues. Basically, potential is realized due to the use of these intelligences. When taking action is ineffective, it is usually due to one or several of the great restrictions, fear, ego, ignorance, self-deception. These intelligences are the dominant principles in all our actions!

Recent discoveries of planetary objects in the outer solar system that resemble Pluto, have sparked a debate among scientists about whether or not Pluto should be called a planet. Yes, Pluto is small, however, its elliptical orbit is unusual as it is the only planetary orbit which crosses that of another planet (Neptune), and it is tilted 17 degress with respect to the plane of the solar system. We speak with the Network of Triangle Astrologers to hear their thoughts on how the planet Pluto affect us. The Network of Triangle Astrologers of North Carolina is an association of professional and novice astrologers alike who meet regularly to share their talents and insights with each other and the community at large.

Feng Shui is the study of energy from Heaven and Earth to see how they can affect the lives of people. To achieve the best results, Feng Shui knowledge should be applied to city planning, architecture, interior decoration and landscaping. In this show, Master Joseph Yu speaks about Traditional Chinese Feng Shui, as well as Chinese Astrology, Yijing Divination, and the classes and seminars that he teaches at the Feng Shui Research Center.

More About Master Joseph Yu:
Joseph Yu was born during the second world war in a small village in South China. He spent his childhood as a country boy and did not receive any formal education until he came to Hong Kong at the age of eleven. A lot of people suggest to him that he should create a story of learning Astrology and Feng Shui in early childhood from a monk as do many a famous Feng Shui Master. He prefers to tell the truth. Yu studied Mathematics and Physics in the University of Hong Kong in the early 1960's. He abhorred all kinds of superstition and vowed to destroy such absurd beliefs of ignorant people. He then frequented libraries, trying to find fault with Astrology and Feng Shui from ancient books. The deeper he went into the subject, the more excited he became about the rich legacy of ancient Chinese culture. Whether or not to become a professional astrologer and geomancer or continue in the fields of mathematics and physics, became a constant dilemma. Astrology and Feng Shui have been viewed as superstition by their skeptics. Astrologers and Feng Shui masters have been linked with fraud for centuries. Someone wrote in his book, "If more knowledgeable men provide true Astrology and Feng Shui services, the ignorant and fake 'professionals' will vanish." Sharing the same view, Yu decided to provide useful services and correspondence courses at an affordable price. In order for more people to understand what Chinese Astrology and Feng Shui really are, Yu is offering carefully planned courses. Some of the courses are for the average layman; others aim at training people, dedicated to practicing Feng Shui and Chinese Astrology consultation. It is hoped that one day this valuable Chinese culture earns proper recognition by the scientific world. Joseph Yu founded the Feng Shui Research Center in 1998 to accomplish his mission. While Joseph Yu was a mathematics teacher after his graduation, he was lucky to have as his neighbor one old Feng Shui master. This old master was very kind to disclose a lot of secrets of the five arts to him even though he was not one of the old master's apprentices. In one Chinese New Year party at the old master's home, the master said to his disciples, "This young man, though not officially under my care, has learned more than most of you because he has a logical mind and dares to argue with me on various issues." The old master passed away a few months later. Joseph Yu did not feel comfortable in the company of the disciples of this good master. He is grateful, but circumstances make it impossible to express his gratitude towards the master who passed on to him a lot of invaluable knowledge. More info at: www.astro-fengshui.com

Opening Minds is about a social scientist's exploration of the world of non-ordinary, multidimensional energy-phenomena. The book is a both an examination of the limited belief systems intrinsic to the mechanistic world-view and an investigation into emerging new paradigms based on subtle-energy sciences. New discoveries in physics, combined with a greater awareness of extraordinary phenomena that surround us, challenge our traditional beliefs in the mechanistic universe of Sir Isaac Newton. Research into remote viewing, crop circles, and extraterrestrials shows our world to be vibrant, multidimensional, and mysterious. The author shows us how we can connect with this infinite universe.

The Cards: The authors, John Knowles, M.A. and Linda Leblanc seek to widen the perspective on reincarnation theory, by going beyond the often superficial, sensationalist handling of the subject.

The 61 beautifully illustrated, color Reincarnation Cards are specially designed to call up intuitional glimpses into other incarnations. They depict a variety of scenes from five categories, including diverse historical periods, occupations, cultures and manner of termination, all designed to provoke “far memories” of both past and future incarnations.

The Book: The 206-page, cloth-bound, hardcover book gives detailed instructions on how the cards are to be used to recall such far memories by following a carefully designed system embedded within this set, for which patents are pending. The chapter “The Evidence” presents solid scientific, physical and anecdotal evidence for reincarnation. A summary of quantum physics breakthroughs and their relevance to understanding this phenomenon includes quotes from such respected scientists as Planck and Einstein.

This approach provides a fresh look at the stunning implications of quantum physics for understanding the true nature of time, space, consciousness and the paranormal. The advancing frontier of modern research, where science meets mysticism, confirms philosophic insights from the ageless past. By presenting a philosophical framework to bring greater clarity and understanding of reincarnational experiences, the authors enable readers independently to gain an insight into who they really are and their purpose in the universe.
