1
The Joe Rogan experience and when we say the original culture Like you are you talking about like the Kings list?
2
Yeah You're talking about like these people that supposedly lived for thousands and thousands of years.
3
Yeah, I don't think they were I mean especially with mummification stuff.
4
I don't I think they knew how to like re -inhabit Reincarnate intentionally into another body essentially, you know, so they could continue that.
5
Where did you get this from?
6
What do you mean?
7
Where'd you get this idea from?
8
I mean the mummification idea is as how they passed on knowledge That's that's like Egyptian lore.
9
That's that's their that's how they did it the so So Horus is this is the Sun God on earth, right?
10
He that the the wisdom of Horus gets transmitted to every successive Pharaoh
11
So you would go through the training through the the temple complexes
12
and you go up the Nile
13
and you would learn What you need to learn at each
14
temple each temple has a theme exactly like every single one
15
of them is trying to teach a life lesson philosophical lesson history lesson
16
and so you you would take that initiatic path
17
and then at the end of
18
that path you would be anointed as the sun god on earth right
19
but that was a process
20
that you had to basically tune your your brain receiver to to handle right
21
so it's like I can't go to the gym
22
and immediately hop on and bench 405 right I have to spend years
23
and years training and working up to it but once I hit
24
that four or five I'm crowned the champion if I
25
if that's my you know personal best or
26
if I'm at a competition right they're crowning of the champion
27
would would be downloading the previous memories of the the prior
28
Pharaoh it was a transfer of consciousness essentially I was I
29
was have you seen the show altered carbon on Netflix yes It's like they had the sleeves, the chips.
30
Yeah, I watched the first couple episodes.
31
I think that was a similar process to what they were doing, but they did it without, like, a technological barrier.
32
Okay, so the idea—this is, like, similar to the idea of the Dalai Lama.
33
Like, the Dalai Lama, like, each person is, like, a reincarnated version of the Dalai Lama.
34
They have to go out and find who it is.
35
Yeah.
36
So the idea is that these people didn't live that long.
37
It's not like they lived for tens of thousands of years, but the the essence of who they were was transported into another vehicle another body Yeah,
38
why do you come up with this idea?
39
I because I think it was a developmental process in
40
One I think we would maybe see some evidence of of it
41
And I think that the it's kind of right in front of our face the mummification
42
phenomenon is just weird in general you know it's it's just
43
a an outlier in terms of history of of a process
44
that we don't really understand and I think what
45
that was was a I would I call it a quantum anchor in in my terminology
46
and what I mean by that is like it's a bookmark
47
that can access a certain amount of memory from from another person right
48
so what the Egyptians would do is have you seen a
49
like the full casket of a mummy that's layered there's huge there's like the outer stone layer
50
and there's a wood layer and then they just keep getting like it's like a Russian doll
51
there they're selective with their materials though the
52
so the the selection of materials is in my opinion what they would do to like keep
53
that frequency in that particular mummy.
54
They would hold on to that frequency.
55
And then whenever a new pharaoh would come in, they would basically have a ceremony, probably involve psychedelics of some sort,
56
and download that previous pharaoh's memories and knowledge and wisdom and all that stuff. And
57
so they could continue the reign based off of inherited wisdom instead of me talking to you about the lessons
58
that I learned in my life.
59
You directly experience them through a altered state of consciousness you
60
know about Rupert Sheldrake's theory of morphic resonance love it weird stuff right it
61
and it's also weird that there seems to be some evidence
62
that points to the fact that it exists in nature like
63
if you teach rats how to navigate a maze on the
64
East Coast the rats on the West Coast navigate it quicker
65
yeah like it's measurable yeah like they figure it out quicker yeah
66
and that you could pass this information on to generations like there was
67
that study that that there's a young man who I think it was a lavender smell
68
or something he did well there's one that he did there's one
69
that they did with caterpillars where they figured out
70
that caterpillars can contain memories oh because they they dissolve themselves and yeah the butterfly and And they still remember this stuff.
71
Yeah exactly yeah and so there's some weird stuff with memory
72
and with genetics and that memory is somehow
73
or another like memories of puzzles and different things
74
that they've tried to get people to do and animals to do
75
and also different reactions that they have to stimuli whether it's negative
76
or positive like getting shocked if they smell a certain thing and then future generations avoid that thing.
77
It seems that we don't totally understand what memory is, and we probably have a very crude idea of how to contain it
78
and how long it lasts and what it actually is.
79
It might be information that just exists in some other state that may be a very sophisticated
80
Civilization has figured out how to quantify that and how to capture it
81
and how to transmit it and how to use it Yeah, that's that's basically the idea
82
and I think that's what they're saying directly in the Egyptian text I honestly do believe
83
that because they get hyper detailed on how to navigate this this realm and
84
It seems very similar to like the stuff you see at the DMT research You encounter an entity
85
or you have this shared experience of something that you can't really explain
86
Maybe they were explaining that maybe that's what they're you know They were mapping
87
that like we're kind of mapping it now
88
But they the way they did it was to
89
if you go into the temples they restrict your sensory input
90
That's kind of a put the point of the temple is you start in this big outside courtyard
91
And you narrow into the final then the nows of the temple the main big old box of it
92
and when you get in there the The environment is extremely acoustic They would obviously have, like, incense and stuff going, too.
93
So you have this, like, you have this tuned state that you're in, right?
94
And then the deity itself in each temple in Egypt, Rome, and the Hindu culture,
95
all of their temples were the literal bodies of the deities.
96
It wasn't a – we associate them with churches.
97
And churches are not the same as cathedrals, and cathedrals are not the same as temples.
98
Like these are they're all technically a temple
99
if you want to put them under that umbrella But the function of each one wildly different, right?
100
So the Egyptian version was was to align your consciousness with this sort of Energy frequency and if they're in physics,
101
there's a concept called spontaneous synchronization
102
Where if you have a metronome
103
and it's on a moving base it will sync up with other metronomes on that moving base and And what it is, is frequency in training, pretty much.
104
It's the dominant frequency subtly aligns the other frequencies until they match up.
105
And in my opinion, that's what they were doing with the brain.
106
And they were essentially building that receiver of their brain through this ritual process to receive that deity's consciousness.
107
And that is that that is the temple side of things.
108
That's not what like the Osirian's doing the Osirian is not One of those things.
109
It's it's a very huge large infrastructure project
110
that looks like it was meant to withstand a whole bunch
111
of stuff The temple is is something that's meant it looks
112
more like a programming interface Where you would go in and you would learn this stuff like a like a university, but basically like neo downloading the kung fu, you know?
113
The football season is heating up, and every week feels bigger with DraftKings.
114

127
Nationwide based on sportsbook predictions and free -to -play sports contest availability varies by state.
128
So how long would a civilization have to exist before they figured something like this out?
129
This is where all of everything kind of converges.
130
Because if we have evidence of, I don't want to say it's ancient aliens,
131
but a civilization that appears to be alien to us, like we were just talking about, if you found a vault with all our technology locked into it, you'd be like, what the fuck?
132
If that were the case.
133
Then and and this cataclysm happened, you know, I think that their timeline is correct I think that we should take their timeline seriously the the
134
Sumerian and Egyptian Kings lists I think
135
that they're probably more accurate than we want to give off and there are timelines hundreds of thousands of years
136
Especially the Sumerians.
137
Yeah.
138
Yeah, like some of the rulers.
139
How was the longest ruler?
140
He's like 50 ,000 something like that.
141
Yeah Imagine being around here 50 ,000 years and then you have things like the book of Enoch Yeah, right which which talks about the watchers who come down
142
and mate with the daughters of men and create a Nephilim a race that destroys everything Yeah, which sounds a lot like us but
143
This idea of being visited is ubiquitous like throughout all of these ancient cultures It's they all talk of something
144
and it's generally coming down.
145
Yeah, like coming down from somewhere those from heaven to earth
146
came yeah you know this is this is the common theme
147
that something comes down from the sky i i think too
148
that if they were
149
that capable of of doing this type of transitionary uh you know memory wiping
150
and re -downloading type of a thing we we may not have really even noticed
151
that they were that much different unless they look like the Peruvian mummies
152
or something you know like those things but if they could do
153
that then they probably looked a lot like Egyptians they probably looked a lot like the the people
154
that they were encountering because of this phenomenon of them breeding with the the local populations
155
and then that's where you probably get your explosion of civilizations
156
at this same exact time in history where we get agriculture
157
and all this this rule of law
158
and like how to build these crazy things they all pop up at the same time
159
so those are those are pointing in that direction in my opinion
160
and then once they got a stable civilization to kind of
161
hold on to they could slowly build it back up and
162
and keep this process going but then you have something like that Mesopotamia
163
flood that was intermediate between the Younger Dryas
164
and now where you have these periodic like we almost made it
165
and then the information gets gets thrown back again
166
so it's just been this like cat -and -mouse game of we almost got it
167
and no something happens right
168
so there's probably a period of peace in terms of like natural disasters
169
and cataclysmic wars
170
and whatever it was a period of peace where there was enough time where they could innovate
171
and get to this insane level of sophistication yeah and the evidence
172
that we have is probably these megalithic structures yes and that's
173
that to me is the they knew Where the infrastructure was
174
because even the like like anchor watt has megalithic infrastructure There's there's a bunch of places
175
that you can't really tell it's megalithic
176
because they would build on top of these temples Right
177
and the infrastructure part like like Teotihuacan Chichen Itza those the
178
that stuff is the best example I use because they're also nesting dolls of pyramids, right?
179
So the inner core of the of the the pyramids seems to be that
180
Someone knew where that thing was
181
and they were like look you got to build it like this
182
and get it aligned properly And then it'll work again
183
And then they just kept on doing that
184
and then it just builds up
185
and then by the time you look at like Karnak has megalithic stuff in it It's the biggest temple in Egypt, but around it.
186
It looks there's there's Greco -Roman stuff.
187
There's like a modern repairs It's so hard to tell what is the most ancient stuff, but you get when you encounter it in Egypt you physically feel
188
that it's the ancient stuff there's there's like a there's a vibe to it you can you can see it
189
so well this has been detailed too when people talk about the erosion
190
when they talk about the erosion particularly in Giza
191
and some of these areas there's different levels of erosion
192
and there's some erosion that seems to indicate tens of thousands of years yeah
193
and that's that's what's thrown kind of a monkey wrench in
194
it there's like Petra is a great example of this some
195
of the the stuff in Petra is uh crazy crazy eroded
196
and some of it looks like like pristine perfect you know
197
and and there's they're very Petra's only like 10 % excavated you walk around Petra
198
and you're you're walking on the roof of some building
199
and you can look down in there and it's yeah so
200
that stuff in the right place where where they put these big Like the Treasury and stuff looks fine.
201
It looks it looks like they you know well -preserved
202
But there's this
203
that guy right there the breathtaking natural wonder natural colors to the left Jamie yeah Down down
204
and to the right right yeah that one yeah Yeah, look how heavily eroded that sucker is that's what that lion is too.
205
Yeah, there's like a lion cut into the wall You're talking about
206
But hold on a second stay on that one so that
207
So you feel like this is like quite a bit older the whole the whole site of Petra is a
208
Crazy enigma dude the the engineering that went in there just to make
209
that place livable is Looks super super old
210
and then you walk through you'll see you'll encounter one of these guys
211
And then you'll encounter a perfect one in the Treasury
212
and then you'll encounter one That's just like is a hole in the wall
213
that looks like it was under construction It's just like all of it does not make any sense
214
So all of Petra is essentially carved out of these mountains.
215
Yeah, there's there's a couple Roman There's a Roman temple
216
and an amphitheater at the end of it But the main stuff is yeah, there's the lion.
217
Oh, yeah, that's an old -looking fucking little elephant What is it in the right shape
218
which is why I still look like a mountain lion?
219
Those you know could have lived there.
220
It's got a tail.
221
Okay.
222
That's a different one.
223
Yeah, so the different one or is it different one?
224
Wow Can I bring up a side note?
225
As you're talking, I was thinking of something and looked it up and didn't get taken off my path.
226
Is there a place like the hill described in telepathy tapes and ancient descriptions of anything?
227
You know what I'm talking about, the hill?

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
