Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondIntuitionFollowing on from Inner Doctors, this is about a related issue, a pathway, a way of processing, a way of answering questions and solving problems.Sometimes, with a wry twist, I call it intwitting - this is etymologically rooted in the Germanic word Wit, meaning intelligence or awareness.A cultural bias in our modern world tends to regard intuitives as twits, as somehow weak, foolish and irrational, and this is unwise.Many great inventors, entrepreneurs and even computer programmers are intuitive, whether intentionally or not. Eureka moments are big moments in history, even if m...2025-07-2336 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondInner DoctorsWhen cancer came into my life nearly six years ago, I found myself adapting some inner visualisation techniques I had learned earlier in life to my new situation. It was a spontaneous thing and a way of dealing with my situation.I met a group of 'inner doctors', engaging in dialogue with them and allowing them to examine me and work on me. The amazing thing is that, in my experience, it has really worked.So this podcast is about the inner doctors. It's for people with life-changing or terminal ailments or disabilities, or their...2025-07-1839 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondCreeping Mists of DisillusionThis is all about the warfare, strife and trouble we find ourselves in today, by an old peace-freak.It's like a virus in the world psyche, ready to pounce on any population that's losing its way, or damaged, or hurt, or susceptible. Yet some societies are strong in themselves. Even if they are invaded and occupied, they are not beaten.What stops many wars is a deep tiredness, a wish to go home and get a life. A societal consensus forms, building resistance to the virus of conflict - an unspoken immunity that...2025-07-1341 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondHearts and MindsThis is all about the current battle for the hearts and minds of humanity - something that is unfolding behind and beneath the torrent of world events we experience today.'The path of excess leads to the palace of wisdom'. Thus said William Blake over two hundred years ago. Well, true. But do we really need to pursue excess in order to achieve wisdom?Recorded in Botrea Woods, Grumbla, Cornwall. Yes, Grumbla is a real place!2025-06-2919 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondPolitics and PowerThis concerns people and power. We're faced with a big question: how to balance effective governance with popular participation. Every kind of system needs to embrace everyone unless we want a world where some thrive and others suffer - the world is crowded, interdependent and networked, everything is affected by everything else and we live in a time of amplifying consequences.This is an age of throngs. Occasionally people mass in the streets or online, swaying unpredictably between the wisdom of the majority and the madness of crowds. A kind of democratisation and dispersal of power is...2025-05-1346 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondHope Flowers in BethlehemLet me introduce you to a soul-friend, Ibrahim Issa, director of the Hope Flowers School and Centre in Bethlehem, Palestine. I worked at this school for some years, helping them with outreach and hassle-busting.His talk is about the school and its world-leading work in dealing with war-trauma, peace-building and the reconstruction of communities.Palestinians have experience in this that few other nations have, since their war experiences have stretched over 70-100 years. The school now trains teachers from all over the West Bank in trauma-recovery and front-line handling of the social consequences of conflict.2025-05-1035 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondGrowing DownThis is mainly for my generational peers - if you're in your 70s, 80s or 90s, your bones are getting creaky and your mind is getting sluggish.In the life-cycle we're given, we grow up and later we grow down. In steps.It's also about karma-clearance. Sorting out our stuff at the end of life, so that we don't carry all of it with us when we go over to the other side - to the realm of the Ancestors.I've been involved in humanitarian work, and recently I've needed to work on my patterns a...2025-04-3046 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondGeopolitical Healing 2Inner journeying, meditation, remote healing and peace-building.Praying for peace or showering light over a benighted area are good, though often they are of a generalised nature. But it's possible to get closer in.It's possible to penetrate actual situations and play a more targeted part in them - literally rescuing people or souls, or participating in situations, meetings and crux-points at the frontline of human experience.In part two we visit Sudan in an inner journey.

Doing our bit toward tackling the world's problems.In recent times many of us have been moved to join meditations, prayers and link-ups when major crises break out. Waves of mass empathy and concern over such crises can have a wide and deep psycho-spiritual influence - it goes deeper than mere 'public opinion'.Praying for peace or showering light over a benighted area are good, though often they are of a generalised nature. But it's possible to get closer in.It's possible to penetrate actual situations...2025-03-171h 02Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondBeing AliveSome days I have days where inspiration-levels droop, so I rattle off a podcast or a blog, if I can muster up a gem to start with - a starting thought. It's a way of getting inspiration-channels moving, and sometimes something good comes out. Not always - I have quite a few rejects.A few days ago I was feeling a bit like that - cancer drugs were affecting me, I'd been on my own too much, it was raining and foggy, and I was casting around for a spark to give me some ignition. Oldies sometimes...2025-03-0239 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondCancer | On Being Given a New LifeI've been a member of the Honourable Company of Cancer Patients for over five years now and, amazingly, I'm still alive, and against the odds. I have a blood cancer, Multiple Myeloma, and I didn't expect to live this long.I waded through the tough grind of chemotherapy and dealing with physical disablement. I went down, nearly fell through the cracks, and found myself emerging from a dark tunnel around three years ago.I found myself starting a new life - well, kind of. I have no idea how long I am to live...2025-02-2126 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondGetting Dead Part TwoThis is part two of the sixth Aha Class, held in Penzance in February 2025. It's all about what happens after you die, and how this reflects on our lives now.Life takes on a very different hue when we're leaving it. First we go to the 'holding bay' where we detox, decompress and defragment after an intense life on Earth. When we've sufficiently got over all that, we're ready to progress through the 'pearly gates' into a completely different world. That's what this talk is all about.With love, Palden.http://www.palden...2025-02-1555 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondGetting Dead - and what happens afterwardsThis is part one of the sixth Aha Class, held in Penzance, Cornwall in February 2025. And it's all about dying.We get born and then we get dead. Things happen in between that we call 'life'. Seen from the viewpoint of the Other Side, our lives are short, rather like a dream, and what happens during our lives takes on a very different hue and meaning when seen from there. After all, we were just visiting Earth.Part Two of this talk follows. With love, Palden.www.palden.co.uk/aha.html2025-02-141h 04Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondDruids, Roundhuts and Smithies | the Iron Age in PenwithA History of West Penwith's Prehistory Part Four: The Iron Age in West Penwith, Cornwall Following the megalithic period, things changed in Britain and, eventually, the Iron Age, a new culture, came along. This is the story of the way the Celtic period unfolded in West Penwith, Cornwall, finishing with a brief history of medieval times in Cornwall. Fourth in a series about Penwith's prehistory (a short audiobook).2025-02-0642 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondAge of the Longstone Builders | The Bronze Age in PenwithA History of West Penwith's Prehistory Part Three: The Bronze Age in West Penwith, Cornwall About the heyday of the megalithic era and the time of the stone circles, menhirs, barrows and enclosures - the building of a complete megalithic system in West Penwith, Cornwall. Third in a series about Penwith's prehistory (a small audiobook).2025-02-041h 09Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondSanctifiers of Belerion | The Neolithic in PenwithA History of West Penwith's Prehistory Part Two: The Neolithic in West Penwith, Cornwall About the first constructed ancient sites, from around 3700 BCE - the Neolithic tors and the quoits - and the people who built them, and what happened afterwards. Second in a series about Penwith's prehistory (a small audiobook).2025-02-0346 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondThe Mesolithic and the Megalithic EraA History of West Penwith's Prehistory Part One: The Megalithic Era and the Mesolithic in West Penwith About the Neolithic, Bronze and Iron Ages, and the periods and stages of the megalithic period in West Penwith, Cornwall. Also about the very first settlers in West Cornwall, during the Mesolithic, and how they lived. First of a series about Penwith's prehistory (a small audiobook).2025-01-3025 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondBelerion | A Research ProposalThere are plenty of interesting geomantic snippets in this talk, though it's mainly a proposal for a longterm research project into the subtle-energy patterns and behaviours of ancient sites in West Penwith in Cornwall. Penwith is dense with ancient sites and it's a nice potted area for research like this - and there are quite a few prehistory maniacs living here, to do such work. Though this is primarily addressed to people in Penwith, this proposed project could be of interest to people elsewhere. I hope it sparks some thoughts and initiatives in the coming...2024-12-231h 07Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondBelerion | The Shining LandThe Shining Land and how and why it shines. Belerion is the ancient name of West Penwith in Cornwall. In Penwith we have more ancient sites per square mile than anywhere in Europe. This is the first part of a talk given at the Aha Class with Palden, on 18th December 2024 in Penzance, Cornwall. I propose that the whole of West Penwith is one big ancient site (an enormous cliff sanctuary). Why did ancient Penwithians bother to build so many quoits, stone circles and cairns? What was their thinking and what were they seeking to...2024-12-201h 08Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondStar Nation People 2 - The NineA few things I learned from the Council of Nine. This is about extraterrestrial civilisations and their relations with planet Earth, and what we on Earth need to do, as a planetary race, to prepare ourselves for meeting up with them, sometime in the future. That's the first half, and in the second half we look into some interesting questions about ancient sites, collective resonance, our soul-roots in other worlds and... dragonflies.2024-11-261h 09Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondStar Nation People 1. ETs - My Own Story.I have had various kinds of contact with ETs over time, and they're part of my spiritual genetics. I had a close encounter at age 22 in Wales, followed by a series of metaphysical experiences, and in the 1990s-2000s I was deeply involved in crop circle research. In 1992 I wrote a book on behalf of some non-earthly cosmic beings, the Council of Nine. I share a fascinating overview of the ET situation, on why we're all here, what Planet Earth is here for, and how none of us started our soul-journey here on Earth.2024-11-231h 15Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondPower Points in TimePower Points in Time goes into peak periods and times of amplified, pattern-setting possibility - and some of the astrology that's involved in identifying such times. This is about solstices, equinoxes and cross-quarters, cycles of the Moon and line-ups of planets. The ancients made use of both temporal and spatial power points to raise their magical-spiritual game, increasing the possibility of changing the way that life and nature operate through innerwork with the fundamental forces of life, spirit and nature.2024-10-271h 09Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondTime: Being in the WorldPart One of an Aha Class on Time: Peak Periods and Cosmic Rumblings. This is about being born, dying and going through life, and the predicament of living on an intensely gravitational, dense world, yet one with a remarkable range of experiential possibilities available for human evolution. It's about the Tibetan bardos - waking life, dreaming, altered states, being born, dying and the after-death state - and the passage of the soul through different kinds of experience. These are very different kinds of experience, yet it is the same soul that experiences them. Ho...2024-10-2559 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondChanging the World 2Part Two of Two. A personal talk about the deeper, wider stuff around activism, creativity, working for justice, changing society, planetary healing, resolution and nudging things along, in any and all of the spheres of activity we might choose to work in, local or global. Observations and anecdotes about playing our part in change and the unfolding of history. It's about us, the helpers, the people seeking to do something to benefit the wider whole. It's about real-life questions concerning personal risk, life-purpose, commitment, psycho-emotional issues, burn-out, energy-management, holding true to your beliefs, an...2024-10-0349 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondChanging the World 1A personal talk about the deeper, wider stuff around activism, creativity, working for justice, changing society, planetary healing, resolution and nudging things along, in any and all of the spheres of activity we might choose to work in, local or global. Observations and anecdotes about playing our part in change and the unfolding of history. It's about us, the helpers, the people seeking to do something to benefit the wider whole. It's about real-life questions concerning personal risk, life-purpose, commitment, psycho-emotional issues, burn-out, energy-management, holding true to your beliefs, and tricks for getting through. And wh...2024-10-0350 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondSludging through the Void in Muddy Boots...and why ETs have spindly legs. A wide-ranging talk by Palden in Glastonbury in early September 2024, with the Inner Light Community. It's all about consciousness and levels of reality. Palden speaks about ancient sites, the awareness power of groups of people, close encounters, altered states, consciousness engineering, crop formations, otherworld beings, cancer, dying and a few anecdotes from his life. A thoughtful journey through the alternative realms of reality.2024-09-101h 25Pods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondMeeting GrandmotherThe Vine of Death | Part Two At the Ayahuasca ceremony, the Grandmother came to me, or I went to her, and I surfed a rather big, surging wave. Ayahuasca, an Amazonian tree-vine, is called the Vine of Death because, while you don't actually die, what happens resembles the experience of dying and it's good practice for it. For me, as a cancer patient, that journey is not far away. I definitely got some practice. The Grandmother is the spirit or goddess of ayahuasca, to whom we are challenged to yield, to receive her...2024-06-1724 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondThe Vine of DeathWell, it's not that bad, but there's meaning in the name. I've just been to an Ayahuasca ceremony, to seek some truth and resolution, and the Grandmother came to me, or I went to her, and I surfed a rather big, surging wave. Ayahuasca, an Amazonian tree-vine, is called the Vine of Death because, while you don't actually die, what happens resembles the experience of dying and it's good practice for it. This, of course, is rather useful to me because, as a cancer patient, that journey is not far away. I got some practice. ...2024-06-1733 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondEarth as Seen from OutsideDown here in Penwith we get a lot of wind - we're stuck out in the ocean and it loves blowing us away with its power and glory. It's one of those things that happen in parts of Planet Earth. And that's what this is about. Conditions on Earth as seen from the outside. In coming months I'll tell you more about things I learned from the Council of Nine - this is the first of a few. What they taught was so multi-dimensional that it's difficult to cover it all briefly. In this podcast I present...2024-05-2436 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondArtificial Intelligence - Human IntelligenceI recorded this podcast in January and completely forgot about it! That was a memory question. And that's why it's coming out now. Jean Piaget once said that intelligence is not about what we know, but what we do when we don't know. How we figure things out when we're in new territory or out of our depth. The problem with AI is that it works by drawing on data and on what is known, on memory, and on the way things have happened thus far. That's not true intelligence. Human intelligence is...2024-05-1727 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondA Trip to the Iron AgeRecorded at an Iron Age Courtyard House up the hill on our farm. It's all about life in the Iron Age in Cornwall, 2,000 years ago. This was the Celtic period - though the Celts were a culture, not one people. In West Cornwall many of them were descendant of the people of the Bronze Age. This is about life and reality systems in our time, in the Iron Age, and also in the Bronze Age and the Neolithic - how people saw life and the world in each of these times, and what we can...2024-04-2629 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondAscensionThis is about pitying the winners, social healing and walking our talk. The core issue is this: ascension and the birth of a new world will take place only when we are truly ready for it. We wish for peace, ecological restoration, social and economic justice and change in every sector of life and the world that we can think of. But the big question is whether and how much we're ready and willing to do what's necessary to allow such things to happen. Until we become ready and willing, we're holding back...2024-04-1836 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondMeditationIt's good to just make a habit of it - like breakfast. Not a big thing, or a discipline we cannot measure up to. Take it easy, but make a basic commitment to building it into your life - even if just once a week. Because that's fifty times in a year, and 500 times in a decade. You notch up quite a bit of experience that way. I'm not a meditation teacher or even a very good meditator, but I've been at it a long time, and here are a few...2024-02-2434 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondTimeThis is about time. Time is what stops everything happening all at once. It stretches us out across a kaleidoscopic storyboard of life-experiences. But in the end, the seemingly lengthy sequence of days and daily life experiences melts into relative insignificance. It's what we have become by going through life that matters most. It's the burnishing and polishing effect of pleasure and pain. Our inner evolution is not something that is hooked directly into time: the progress we make depends more on willingness and openness than on time. If we devote much of our energy...2023-10-2737 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondBadger Setts and Platform BarrowsI'm up on Botrea Barrows in West Penwith, Cornwall, recounting why they're there, and what life was like 5,500-3,500 years ago in the megalithic era, in the neolithic and bronze ages. It's also about the reasons why the ancient people of Britain went to so much trouble to build sites like this. They weren't fools, they did it to create benefits, and they were onto something that is relevant to our day. It has something to do with building a sustainable civilisation - an advanced civilisation that works more or less in harmony with nature...2023-09-1232 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondConspiracyWe need to get this into proportion. It's a polarised, zero-sum issue for most people - we believe in conspiracy theories or we don't, but look at the space in between. The answers aren't straight and simple. There's truth and falsehood in the conspiracy game, and it's important not to gobble up ideas because they sound plausible, they fit your picture or they look like a conspiracy. But don't reject it all either, just because it's smoke and mirrors, it makes you feel uncomfortable, others disapprove or authoritative voices pass it all off. 2023-06-1233 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondHealing the World 2Second in a series of thoughts and observations about world healing. This for people interested in helping the world evolve and break through, using meditation and innerwork. When I was organising gatherings and camps in the 1980s, some quite remarkable things took place that demonstrated the capacity of innerwork to change things. In the early 1990s I was asked to write a book on behalf of the Council of Nine, some cosmic beings, not of this Earth, who had a lot to say about world healing, and this set me off on a path.2023-05-1932 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondAccelerating Earth's EvolutionWhat extraterrestrials think about the situation on planet Earth, and how we can break through and save our world. This is me reading from a chapter taken from the original manuscript of the book The Only Planet of Choice - essential briefings from deep space, which I wrote in 1991-92. It contained material from the Council of Nine, some high-level cosmic beings, channelled by Phyllis Schlemmer during the 1970s-90s. It's a series of interviews with Tom, the spokesperson of the Nine, by an interesting group of people who worked with the Nine, including scientist...2023-04-2655 minThe Only Way Is GlastonburyThe Only Way Is Glastonbury# 5 - Palden Jenkins and the Council of the NineIn this episode I talk to the phenomenon that is Palden Jenkins.  Author, historian, podcaster, energetic cartographer, visionary and a true all round Glastonbury legend. Palden now lives at the far end of Cornwall, whilst battling with cancer and I had the honour of chatting with him about a range of topics, ranging from quantum entanglement to alien engagements. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did!2023-04-1151 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondHealing the World 1First of a series about my thoughts and experiences around world healing consciousness work. Over time I've gathered quite a lot of experience in this, in my own explorations and working in groups. In the 1990s I ran the Hundredth Monkey Project - camping retreats for 100 people doing inner work with world issues of the time. Afterwards I was involved in the Flying Squad, a smaller group that worked together intensively for twenty years. (Find out about these on my website.) In the podcast I'm asking questions about what we're really aiming to do, and...2023-03-2632 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondGritty StuffSometimes life is a real grinder, shoving us through things that can test us to the limits, whether or not we like it. But there's always something to learn from it all. I went down to the woods below our farm to sit by the stream, and this is what came up. A streamside chat about going through stuff - in my case, cancer is a large part of that - and dealing with this very strange sitaution of living on Planet Earth. It's a place full of goodness and badness and everything in between...2023-02-2623 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondWritingSome of you will be having a quieter Christmas than many, and some creatives will be using this time as a way to get down to some work. In this podcast I share some thoughts about writing. I've been an author, editor and online content creator, and I have no idea how many hours I've sat at typewriters and computers for sixtyish years, creating yardages of verbiage in print. I guess my mother handed me that gene - she was a prizewinning shorthand secretary in the 1940s. This isn't about sentence structure or punctuation. It's...2022-12-2324 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondBorn AgainNot what you might at first think... this is about reincarnation. Introduced and outroduced by the Massed Corvid Choir of Lower Grumbla, Cornwall - they're crows and jackdaws that live down in the woods below the farm, and at dawn they get worked up and suddenly all take flight, hundreds of them, and they fly over to settle on the roof of the farm and neighbouring houses. You can hear them arriving and landing just before the music starts. So this is about reincarnation, and the many lives we live in this life. For me, towards the...2022-12-0735 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondWorld HealingHere's the first of a number of podcasts on this topic. Healing the World - a notion that can at times be rather lightly taken, but it's really important, this. Especially if you feel a need to make a contribution to the world's future, increasingly shaky as it is becoming. There are different ways of doing world healing innerwork, and this is what Palden has learned along the way, especially from the Council of Nine, and through gaining experience by running the Hundredth Monkey Camps in the mid-1990s and being part of the Flying Squad thereafter.2022-11-2830 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondEarthIn our concerns about our world crisis today, we humans tend to think it's just our problem, and it's of significance only to ourselves and to our own world, which we believe to be the only inhabited world that's around. Well, there's more to this than that. Here Palden outlines what he understands of the perspective of others in the universe - what we call ETs, to whom we might add MDIs or multilevel intelligences. Actually, some ETs are MDIs. So are we: our multilevel we call 'sleep', 'dreaming', 'meditation' or 'altered states'. Planet Earth's...2022-10-1233 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondSoul TribesSo, do you reckon the existence of your soul and psyche began here on Earth? Here, Palden talks about tribes, nations and civilisations, material and multidimensional, in which each and all of us have our roots as souls. This is key to finding our true, deep identity, not solely as a product of Earthly evolutionary experience, but from a deeper level way beyond. It concerns the initial reason we decided, or it was decided, that we'd partake of the Earth experience. If we anchor to this root source of our being, it can help us...2022-08-1126 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondAlonenessAll about being alone and loneliness - a growing phenomenon around the world. It particularly concerns people outside the mainstream rush of life. Paradoxically, the more that world population has grown, the more that loneliness has become a major issue. It has been a personal experience for me in the last 6-12 months. Sometimes, when you're alone a lot, you can come off the rails and lose the plot, and your anchorage. It can lead to further problems and can get quite deeply embedded. Sometimes these are but periods of life, and sometimes people get lost in...2022-07-1019 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondEpiphanies'Epiphany'comes from Greek. It means to cause to appear, to bring to light, to make visible. It's also a form of religious experience, though that's not really what I'm talking about here. I'm talking about those pattern-setting realisations we occasionally get which suddenly show things as they actually are, rather than what we, up to then, told ourselves. Nowadays, we tend to tell ourselves a lot and then try to mould reality around it. But life doesn't work like that. Listen more closely to things than to people - a chunk of wisdom from the Xhosa of...2022-06-1618 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondOrigins 2 | My OwnOrigins, and where we came from...This leads on from the preceding podcast, Origins, though you don't have to listen to that first. All my podcasts are related and they knit together, yet each stands for itself.It's all about a quest to uncover off-Earth origins - the regression I did is recounted in the first Origins podcast. Here we have the discussion and afterthoughts following it - and these are interesting in themselves. They lead to further thoughts about our situation on Earth and what we can do about it.The idea...2022-06-0831 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondOriginsNone of us began our lives here on Earth. In this podcast I share with you what happened in a deep regression I had over twenty years ago, which involved going back to the beginning of my soul, far away in another world, and very different to our own.  It also covered my connections with some advanced beings I worked with thirty years ago (I compiled a book for them called The Only Planet of Choice - essential briefings from deep space). The were called the Council of Nine - they were kinda part of the management s...2022-05-3139 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondCosts and BenefitsIn our time we're going through an intensification of events and pressures, globally, socially and individually. We're heading into harder times, and it's not going to go back to normal. But there are things we can do about this. It doesn't have to be as bad as currently it looks. The costs and difficulties we have in life can be made a bit easier by not grinding on about it quite so much, by making things less difficult inside ourselves. Sounds easy, but it takes some work. There are also gifts in any situation that...2022-04-2816 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondA Close Encounter with Other WorldsIn November 1972 I had a close encounter. It was a life-changer for me. I was unprepared for it: like so many people, I hadn't really thought about ETs up to that time. The whole thing lasted something between 20 and 40 minutes, and it was witnessed also by my friend, and we checked to see whether we were seeing the same thing. We were. We discussed it fully. But little did I know what was going on in a deeper part of consciousness. This is one of those things about close encounters: in a way, they're so far from...2022-03-2830 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondWhen It All Gets Too MuchIn some of my podcasts I share some very personal things, and this is one of those.  We're all going through it - that feeling of OMG, this is all too much -  and it's gone global. It hits the best of us.  This is about my own little version of it, which nevertheless is rather heart-rending for me. With a few insights into the process of riding with truth - it can propel us along. It's all about those times when reality really hits you in the face, or in the gut, and...2022-03-2417 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondAbout Living with Cancer 2This is rather heartfelt. It's all about the psycho-spiritual side of having cancer - that is, keeping our spirits up, despite everything. I have found that keeping my spirits up lies right at the core of my wellbeing as a cancer patient. It helps my health, relationships, doctors' visits, dealing with pain and difficulty and getting through crises, and it brings special moments of joy and relief too. This podcast is for people experiencing cancer or similar kinds of issues, and also for carers and anyone who knows a cancer patient. I'm not an expert or a...2022-03-1429 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondAbout Having Cancer 1I've got cancer and it has me. It's full-on and it has been a big life-changer. I have myeloma or bone marrow cancer. I've had it over two years and am through the worst stage, I hope, but it's still hard work. Every now and then I still get quite ill, not from the cancer but from the secondary issues in my spine and stomach and with infections. You can't get rid of myeloma - you can only manage it. I probably have a few years left. I'm 71. So this podcast is for anyone who...2022-03-0324 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondPeace and GoodwillExperiences  of the last two years have drawn us surreptitiously toward new values, a rehumanising of society - and there's more to go. Here are some insights on conflict, migration and dehumanisation, with a little on the Holy Land. And peace and goodwill.  With explosions and atrocities going on, the environmental, social and  cultural issues of our time will not be resolved. This needs to change,  for very practical reasons. It involves every one of us looking at our own conflicts. Planetary healing. With songs from the Massed Corvid Choir of Grumbla, at dawn on a wi...2021-12-2318 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondHigher IntelligenceInstinct, intuition, imagination, empathy. Ways of tuning into wider fields of information and reality and finding out what's best to do. It's a way of getting things more right, and in our day we do need that. With additional commentary from the birds around our farm and the Massed Corvid Choirs of Grumbla, Cornwall.2021-12-1928 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondIntelligence (1)This is about using our intelligence more deeply. Putting instinct and intuition to work. I've hovered on the edges of the intel world in my humanitarian and peace-activist work, and here I tell a few tales of things that happened, some of the ways I've done it, and some of the lessons learned. Might be useful to some of you. This and the podcast that follows later are both about 'higher intelligence' - drawing on sources far beyond our normal reach.  But first, the waves of Kilgooth Ust or Cape Cornwall, on a m...2021-11-2631 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondPopping Clogs and Kicking BucketsI'm a cancer patient and, for me, it's the complications that are now more problematic than the cancer itself. Recently I had some potentially bad medical news, and this of course brought up a lot of stuff, provoking some deep processing and thought. So this podcast is about dying - something that is optional for none of us, though more pressing for some than for others. If you get born, you'll die, and that's that. Recorded in the woods down below where I live, and introduced by the sound of the stream in the woods.2021-11-1122 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondPsycho-ClimatologyCurrent thoughts on the climate and environmental crisis. I have reservations about the current climate picture: it's not wrong, but it isn't quite right either. And this issue isn't primarily environmental, it's social, psychospiritual and about the nature of planetary civilisation. Each and every one of us has to get behind this for it to succeed - form a world consensus that everyone can buy. That's tricky. The breakthrough point on climate will come alongside a breakthrough point in humanity. As a forecaster - working mainly along social and geopolitical lines - I've learned a...2021-11-0432 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondSoul Education - what we're all here forIntroduced by a nightingale in the tree behind my house, here on the farm.  This is a perspective on the meaning of our lives and what we're really here for. As souls, we're here to learn and to make a contribution.  When we see things from this viewpoint, reality changes and our free-will opportunities are advanced to a new stage. We need to remember why we came, what we're here for. Because, no matter how difficult life gets, if we have a meaningful life in which we're genuinely pursuing our path, it's always po...2021-10-3022 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondFive Minutes in the Life of a Cornish StreamA five-minute soundscape from the stream just down the field from where I live. Nothing is happening at all, yet a lot is happening. It's the existential Zen of unfolding universal reality, God doing a dance and nature speaking in its own voice. Yes, waste five minutes of your precious time imbibing the medicinally auditory gifts of a little stream in the ancient land of Kernow...2021-10-3004 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondTreading the Edge - a message from hell (well, sort of)As a cancer patient, sometimes I plummet toward the edge of death. This is a straight-up podcast recorded in bed in the dark of the early morning, at a time when I was very ill, struggling and on my own. It's at times like this when we really start facing the truths of our lives - times when we might lose our life and we suddenly notice and own up to things we hadn't seen before. Or we didn't have what it took to look at it before. So here's a taste of what it's...2021-10-3020 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondTruth Time - facing our sickeningly repetitive patternsI'm down at the stream again. There are times when I'm faced with my truth, my fuckups, and it's hard. This is all about facing facts: our beliefs about life and about ourselves sometimes get outblasted by raw facts. So this is about facing our stuff, owning up and getting real. Because real change doesn't happen until or unless we do so - we just get the repetition of our ingrained patterns. But if or when we break through, magic happens, and new possibilities are given to us. So this is about freedom. I have long been...2021-10-3017 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondChoice and Belief - how we create our realitiesAbout choices I have made in life that have led me to where I am now. Recorded by the stream in the breezy woods below our farm. I chose to live in this beautiful, uplifting place, and some think I am lucky to do so, but everything in life charges its price, and this is the result of choices and sacrifices I have made - it's not luck.  Actually, in dealing with cancer, living here has been a great medicine for me. Our free will hangs around the extent to which we exercise our capacity to choose. Y...2021-10-3016 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondAn Ancient Trackway - the Bronze Age in the Anthropocene AgeRecorded just down the field by the stream, on an ancient trackway on our farm, running between two prehistoric sites here in West Penwith - Botrea Barrows and Caer Bran. Insights on life, on time and on prehistoric civilisation in Cornwall, and the way that ancient megalithic knowhow is becoming increasingly relevant to us today. It's not just a fascination with prehistory: it concerns the next level of civilisation. If West Cornwall's ancient sites interest you, try visiting Ancient Penwith.  And if my cancer blog, Notes from the Far Beyond, interests you, go here.2021-10-3016 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondPower Points - in time and spaceAbout the inner secrets of prehistoric deep-energy technology. Power points in space and power points in time, and the way these were used for the reformulation of the heart of reality. The ancients didn't need gene editing, nuke power, space exploration or tech fixes of the kind we know - they had other ways of doing things back in the 3000s and 2000s BCE, and we now need to learn about how they did this. This is all about megalithic consciousness engineering, and how we might be able to fix our climate, ecosystem and society in a way that...2021-10-3019 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondUs Together - the collective psycheRecorded by a stream just down the field on our farm, by the woods. What is going to bring about a fundamental change to the world? About collective consciousness and the beliefs, values and choices that humanity now faces. Uprisings and movements for change, and the importance of shared beliefs and viewpoints in bringing about change. Without such psychosocial changes in society, environmental, climatic, social justice and other issues cannot be progressed. We're in a phase where we need to reassess the fundamental tenets of civilisation - why we're here and what on earth we really are doing. People...2021-10-3021 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondComing Decades - and what we're heading intoAn astrologer who has studied and written about history all his life pronounces on the course of coming times. What I believe will be the global process of the 21st Century, and how we might or might not get there - to where we need to go, whatever shape that actually takes. This is about a coming avalanche of events of the late 2020s, the stresses of the 2030s, the global crunch-point of 2048 and the new start that could dawn after the 2060s - depending on what we as humans actually do with our situation. We have already entered...2021-10-3029 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondLevel Shift - the planetarisation of consciousnessThis is all about the future, the collective psyche and the dawning of a planetary consensus and awareness. Woo, that sounds big, but it isn't quite so big. This is about how humanity is moving painfully toward becoming one planetary race by going through an excruciating process of truth-finding, inner change and focusing of collective consciousness - toward something that helps us survive and move forward. Humanity is a tribal animal and the ultimate tribe is the whole of humankind. This is all about being human, being part of an enormous family. All...2021-10-3029 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondThe Nine Maidens - a podcast from an ancient stone circleIntroduced by crows and geese. Recorded at the Nine Maidens stone circle in West Penwith, Cornwall, UK. Here I share my understanding of the real reasons why the ancients built stone circles and built them where and how they did - for consciousness work and the energy-raising of the subtle fields of the Earth. These people were advanced, working with stuff that we need to learn about now, at this time of history. To find out on an online ancient sites map (made by me) where the Nine Maidens are, click here.  To see some p...2021-10-3021 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondThe Botrea Barrows - on top of the worldIntroduced by a skylark and recorded on the Botrea Barrows on top of a high hill on our farm in the centre of West Penwith. About ancient landscapes and prehistoric landscape management, and how and why ancient people did it.  Also about the 2020 G7 Conference, which was at the time of recording soon to take place just a few miles from where I live, in St Ives, Cornwall. This is about innerwork to influence such things - providing an alternative to protest.  The podcast gives a small example of the uplifting effects of sitting on an...2021-10-3019 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondA Slow Farming RevolutionAbout organic farming (after all, I do live on a farm) and its deeper role in sculpting the world's future. With some buzzing and chirruping in the background. Recorded at my place on the farm, on a nice sunny summer's day.2021-10-3014 minPods from the Far BeyondPods from the Far BeyondPast and Future - how knowledge from the past can help our futureAbout the way the knowledge and technologies of the ancient past - the neolithic and the bronze age - need to be brought into the present and the future to help the fixing of planet Earth. About ancient power points and the shamanistic cultures of ancient times, by which prehistoric peoples worked with the character and patterning of the morphogenetic fields of nature. They engaged in what I call megalithic geoengineering - the engineering of consciousness and deeper levels of reality.
