"Don't re-enact Platoon scenes with Charlie Sheen!" hehe Yes, same TV ad....
I have never stated my desire and mission for this newsletter in any systematic fashion; I'd like to do that now. Something happened tonight to re-inforce my passion. Let me explain that, and then get on with my vision.
Since I have a calling to bring Christ into the paranormal, I have to stay current. To that end, I watched GHI (Ghost Hunters International) tonight--I always pray beforehand. Barry Fitzgerald, who normally is fairly level headed, blew it horribly in tonight's show, which was located in Belize..As the current Lead Investigator for GHI, Barry made an unbelievable decision while investigating some ancient Mayan ruins, which dated 1,000 BC. The client, Pedro, wanted them to discover whether the spirits were attached to just the place or were they attaching to him as well. Pedro, who obviously was obsessed with the place, (which was never addressed...not in reveal anyway) told the group that blood rituals had taken place there, and that he had re-enacted these blood rituals using his own blood, in order to draw the spirits out. (anybody feeling a bit uncomfortable yet.....)
"So, Pedro, would you be willing to re-enact this blood ritual for us tonight..." Barry asked the client. "Sure!!", was the ecstatic reply. Barry asked for volunteers, and Susan eagerly agreed. An interesting side-note..Kris expressed, more than once, her concern that it was going too far. THAT, should have knocked some sense into the Irishman, but it didn't. In the "sacred" place, Susan unwittingly let her life-blood be offered up to demons...as it trickled into the basin. "I sacrificed a bit of me to you tonight...and opened myself to you...so, show yourself." she implored during an EVP session. I wept in my spirit, as she opened a door never meant to be touched by human hands, and that she has no clue as to the coming darkness. You don't do that without suffering serious consequences; especially since it involved human blood...hers. Pray for her..
In an attempt to accellerate or optimize conditions for the alleged Mayan spirits to interact with them, a serious line was crossed. They practiced an occultic blood-letting ritual. This darkness was witnessed as entertainment by millions; for an untold number it was the sanctioning of doing whatever needs to be done to maximize "profits". Of course, the GA (Ghost Adventure) crew has crossed this ritualistic line long ago.We have seen that EVP sessions themselves are portal openers; ritualistic occultism is a defiant shaking of the fist at God. With no objective standard as found in the bible, who in the paranormal community is prepared to say enough is enough...
Enough is enough! Let us say it together, "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!" It is this sadly surprising display of lack of discernment by Barry Fitzgerald that I am using as a foil for proclaiming my vision for change in the paranormal community; both in belief and methodology.Martin Luther nailed his 95 thesis on the door of the
church in Wittenburg-it was like a community bulletin board-and that was the catalyst of the great Protestant Reformation. The essence of this movement was a re-discovery of the gospel of justification by faith alone. My vision is for a reformation in the field of demonology and the paranormal/supernatural. The following are my ten thesis; they are the purpose behind these newsletters.
1.That the bible be acknowledged as the primary standard by which we identify the paranormal. (Prov.1:7) Any assumption that diminishes the singular honor and dignity of our Lord Jesus, or detracts in any way from the perfection and finished nature of the atonement, be jettisoned.
2.That the currently unquestioned assumption of ghosts be rejected as repugnant to scripture (Dt.18)
3.That the notion of residual haunts is repugnant to reason and scripture.
4.That there are only two residents of the supernatural realm: good angels and fallen angels (demons).
\\
5.That verbal solicitation of EVP's is manifestly anti-biblical (Dt.18), and opens one to demonic influence.
6.That the primary purpose of an investigation is to determine the presence of the demonic and assist the clients in getting rid of them if present; empower clients.
7.That we raise up an army of trained clergy and lay folks who can work together to help those assaulted by demonic activity.
8.That pastors awaken to the reality of this demonic juggernaut and that they equip their sheep.
9.That the paranormal be called the supernatural realm
10.That in light of the present spiritual warfare, we cry out to God for reformation and revival from the Holy Spirit.
This list is open to future revision.You may not agree with portions of it, but the purpose is to show where the author is coming from. I realize that much of this rests upon the conversion of the majority in the paranormal community. That is why we must be willing to take small victories;.finding common ground, build relationships, and so on to make incremental progress...unless and until the Holy Spirit comes in revival fire. Have mercy on us Lord, and pour out lavishly the Holy Spirit. Soli deo gloria!
Nothing escapes the Eye on the Paranormal ...

The Paranormal Christian - The Psychology Of Atheism And False Religion
By Reverend Mark Hunnemann
My regular job has overshadowed my ministry work this week with the advent of several travel promotions in the works at my company. This of course took away any time that I had to write my blog. However, my co-host on The Paranormal Christian, Reverend Mark Hunnemann, wrote an interesting article that I wanted to share with you and he has given me permission to do so.
Please join us tomorrow, Saturday March 17, at 7 pm EST for our show. Also, we have been invited to move our show from BlogTalkRadio.com to BTVN TV. We will soon announce the official switch over date later, but we believe this move will allow us to expand our reach to help more people.
Pastor Michael Frisbee
Enjoy the following article, written by Reverend Mark Hunnemann.
If Christianity is true, then why are there all these other religions -or atheism- in the world. Why all these different views of who Jesus is? What I want to explore with you is a little different in focus than most of my newsletters; but it will have a bearing on why there is such a widespread misunderstanding of the paranormal realm. Why are there other religions? Are they man's earnest search for God? Is God happy with all these world religions? What we see in scripture may surprise or even shock you. Our main text will be the first chapter of Romans, starting a v. 18.
But God's wrath is being revealed from heaven against all the ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who are suppressing the truth their unrighteousness. They know the truth about God because He has made it obvious to them. For ever since the creation of the world, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see His invisible attributes--His eternal power and divine nature, so they are argumentless. Although they knew God, they refused to worship Him or give thanks. They began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. Hence, their hearts became dark and confused. Claiming to be wise, instead they became fools. Instead of worshipping the true, glorious God, they worshipped idols made to look like man and birds and animals and reptiles. So God abandoned them to do whatever their shameful hearts desired. and did unclean and dishonorable things to each other’s bodies. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie. So they worshipped and served the created things instead of the Creator, who is worthy of eternal praise. Amen!
(Romans 1:18-25, my translation)
We have this notion that folks just innocently come up with new ideas about God or the paranormal, and it’s just part of being human. Even more, religion is viewed as a noble thing where Buddha or Muhammed or (fill in the blank) are seen as creative thinkers who are earnestly seeking God for themselves and their people. Just today on Facebook, Pastor Mike and I were engaged in a conversation with a couple of folks who were arguing that all religions were the same and that the Bible can be interpreted in many ways. The paranormal claim has become an informal religion for millions; or it at least provides a foundation for a view of the after-life.
In v. 18 we see that God is currently (present participle) pouring His wrath out on folks. Why? We see in subsequent verses that there is a sense in which every person knows God or has knowledge of Him; knowledge of his existence, glory and holiness..not just His burning moral purity, but His "Otherness" or "God-ness". (when you add the traits mentioned, it can be summed up in one word "holy") And this knowledge of His existence and character is said to be "obvious". Many people have the fear of the different or unknown; this is infinite differentness. This is NOT saving knowledge of God, it is a creatures knowledge about God. We know He exists, that He is gloriously creative and that He is holy. What do people do with this knowledge? Do they treasure it? Do they turn around and worship this Holy God?
v.18 They suppress (katekownten, to push down--like pushing down a spring and holding it down) this knowledge about God. You are probably familiar with this term (suppress) in regards to psychology. If someone has a traumatic experience as a child, they suppress that memory - they push it down beneath conscious level. Everyone is exposed to this knowledge of a holy God, which is traumatizing to them due to their sinful condition. Folks the world over are traumatized by this universal knowledge and, like a spring, they push it down and keep it down. Are people sent to hell for not accepting a Jesus they never heard of? No, they are hell-bound because all of us have rejected the Father. Those who have heard of Jesus are in double jeopardy.
In Mark 6:45-52 is the famous "ghost text", which was appealed to in the Facebook discussion I mentioned earlier as proof that Jesus believed in ghosts, because He did not rebuke the disciples thinking He was a ghost. Actually, the Holy Spirit's intent of this passage is quite the opposite, as seen in v. 52 - which acts like a self-summarizing observation on all that had proceeded. Everything they said and did was done as an expression of unbelieving and fearful hearts. (phantasm in that context means superstious imagination) It is 3 am, and likely a Satanically caused sudden storm threatens to overwhelm the boat the disciples were in. Jesus comes walking out on the water (which is when they lost their marbles and thought their very much alive Master was a ghost), calms them down, and then when He steps in the boat, the storm immediately ceases and becomes placid. We know that before they had been frightened, but notice their emotional reaction to this extraordinary display of His "Otherness", in vv.51 they were terrified! They experienced what Rudolph Otto referred to as the mysterium tremendum. You would have thought that they would have sighed a big collective sigh of relief. Instead, they were more frightened of Him, and what He had done, than of a violent storm which they thought was going to possibly drown them. In Isaiah 6, the prophet, probably the most righteous man of his day, collapsed as though dead, during his close encounter with the Holy One of Israel. He curses himself - he is severely traumatized by the mysterium tremendm (but we know that God tenderly restores him moments later) Again, during the storm, the disciples we frightened; after Jesus’ miracle which displayed His "Otherness", His deity, they were very frightened. Traumatized...
Freud postulated that the God hypothesis was invented by man in order to soothe our fears in the face of nature which could get violent and frightening. The only problem with this theory is that the biblical God is much more frightening than nature itself! Witness the disciples reaction to Jesus display of His "otherness", witness what Romans 1:18 says happens constantly. It is not psychologically plausible that man would create something so awesome as the God of the Bible in order to deal with a lesser fear of nature. So, mankind is traumatized by this deep awareness of God's holiness. And this knowledge is so apparent, they are left argumentless; they have no acceptable excuse (v 20) Their defense strategy is first to suppress that knowledge of the one, true God.
But the wickedness doesn't end with suppressing of this universal, clear-as-day knowledge of God's righteous character. Before I move on, this is where depth psychology is interesting and enlightening in some ways. Our minds are amazingly deep, or we could call it our heart as well--using biblical categories; the heart often refers to the essence of the person. In v21 we see the next stage, sinful and diabolical darkness and confusion descends upon a mind which is actively suppressing the truth. It is quite frightening to look at the biblical view of an unregenerate man's mind. Because the truth is being forcefully pressed down and resisted, this opens a person to spiritually delusional thinking. Perhaps you have wondered how an intelligent neighbor could believe something so bizarre as Mormonism. The noetic effects of sin (nous..mind) combined with a demonic heyday with your thinking; it can have the effect of leaving a maggot in your mind.
Just as nature abhors a vacuum, so the heart HAS to serve somebody. The spiritual vacuum in the suppressed heart won't stay a vacuum for longer than a nano-second. So, an unholy imagination begins thinking of how to creatively fill that void. We are homo religiosis - incurably religious. Since we are made in God's image we long for spiritual reality. But without the Holy Spirit, we will never, on our own, choose the holy Son of God. As the text says we begin the process of building a god in our own image. And we are expert and prolific idol makers. John Calvin said that humans were "Idol factories." That is precisely the point of this text.
In v 23-25 we are told that the next stage in this descent from the truth, is an exchange; psychologically, mentally, and spiritually...the truth of God is exchanged for a lie. Specifically, the truth (the creator God) is exchanged for the lie (the creation).Paul has just explained the psychological/spiritual process behind the creation of religion. "There are only two religions in the world." the Lord is telling us through Paul. There is the true religion of worshipping the Creator God of the bible, and there is the lie of worshipping the creation. There is no tertium quid or middle ground; you are either one or the other. We all deal with idols; things we put before the Lord and have to continually repent of. But either the basic bent of our hearts is to the Creator or to His creation. This is not an easy message to believe or share with others because it cuts against the relativistic grain of our culture. How do you respond to this? Do you grasp the fact that we are being called to make a choice? To not make a choice is a de facto choice for worshiping the lie. We are either on the Lord's side or we are on Satan's side. So, we can see that Satan is pleased with what the Lord is angry at - the multitudes of religions, because any religion other than biblical Christianity (and I mean BIBLICAL) Christianity, is on Satan's side.
This text refers to birds and reptiles as examples of this truth exchange which results in idolatry. But that is probably not the form that is tempting you. Any part of God's creation which becomes our dominant life value is a lie we are worshipping. Family, children, sports, work, investigating the supernatural, and so on are very good things, BUT if they become our dominant life value, then they have become a truth exchange. A dominant life value is really self-defining. What is the first thing you tend to think about in the morning, during the day, or the last thing you think about a night? What propels you through life? What opens your wallet? What do you talk about the most; thus revealing your heart orientation? Is the paranormal or the study of it your dominant life value? From the large corpus of EVP we now have, does it reveal creatures who are worshipping the Creator or the creation? Have you heard an EVP which states that Jesus is to be forever praised? On a lesser scale, are there any views on the paranormal that you might be suppressing due to traumatic ramifications and exchanging with a lie? "Iron sharpens iron" is the spirit in which that is meant. Now that you know that God is not pleased with religion, are you seeking opportunities to share the gospel?
While this newsletter may not have been a typical paranormal analysis, it does shed light on who God is, and give us some insight in how and why it may be difficult for some people to change their views. Finally, with a God like this, do you really think He would be pleased at being left out of the study and discussion of part of His creation? God hates religion, but He has a heart for the lost. Do we?

Science Is Proving The Supernatural Exists
By Lisa Grace
Back in late nineteen ninety, I read a book called What to Say When You Talk To Your Self by Shad Helmstetter Ph. D. In the book he talks about how the mind has no emotions, and like a computer it can be programmed. By speaking out loud what you expect, you can bring it about. Your mind believes you.
If you have read any of my posts you know I believe in the supernatural from the Biblical/Holy Scriptural point of view. What impressed me about Shad’s take on things is how they parallel some concepts found in the Bible.
Romans 12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will. (NIV)
Proverbs 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so [is] he (KJV)
You are what you think you are. Renewing your thoughts to become a better you is Biblical.
Science has proven thoughts are energy. They can be tracked, mapped, and interpreted. Brain thoughts with properly placed electrodes can manipulate prosthetics.
If God is intelligent energy that can take any form He pleases; and He spoke (which requires thought) the universe into being, we are already getting a glimpse of how this is done.
With the right physical equipment, we can move objects with our thoughts. Wait until we figure out how to Wi Fi our thoughts. It’s coming soon. Then will people think God speaking the universe into being is so impossible after all?
Science is proving the universe started from nothing. Some call it the Big Bang. And others say “God spoke” (Genesis).
Science is proving there are fields or dimensions beyond what we can detect. Quote: The hunt for the Higgs boson is significant because it would show the existence of an invisible field thought to permeate the entire universe. (Some call this God glue.) http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/03/07/us-physics-higgs-idUSTRE8260HL20120307
They’ve all ready recreated these particles in the lab. They know they exist.
Science has discovered how to teleport energy. http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/24759
We know thoughts are energy and we know angels are intelligent beings of light. WE know angels and other supernatural creatures teleport.
Science has proven physical objects can be rendered invisible.
Since Google has become quite useless as a search engine, I couldn’t find the link to a previous article where scientists having been shooting photons (or protons I can’t remember which) through solid physical objects rendering them invisible. They’ve even done it on a hand.
Is it really that much of a stretch that creatures exist made from a form of energy that can seem/be solid, yet not be detected if made of light/energy?
All these different scientific disciplines are coming closer to showing the unseen supernatural world spoken of in the Bible.
Of course, I don’t need science to tell me the supernatural world is real. The science behind the supernatural is for the doubting Thomases. I say doubt away, because the doubters are slowly proving we are right.

It's nice to be back! As many of you know I turned over my spot to Reporter X who lived up to their word to post the most controversial blogs ever done about the lies and issues within the paranormal community. And they did just that -- they exposed that it is now ruled by lies and not the truth. It's run by the para-celebrities who care only about their ego, and it's governed by the law of say and do anything to get on TV or sell that movie deal. But Reporter X also exposed that many who claim to be victims of and those who claim to help those victims--are neither--they are in league with that which they battle against.
I stated when I departed that if I ever came back, it would be to resume my teaching blog and that’s what you'll get here. It won't just be about exposing the fakers, but what they are doing, how their lies work, and who is going to get hurt by them.
As Reporter X reports on the "case that will go unmentioned" they will be back. I'm told I had seen up to part 4. I've heard that Reporter X completed even more which will be posted on their own site. I wish them well. Again, I repeat that I'm not Reporter X. It's odd that those who say I am haven't bothered or are unable to read my past blogs on the matter. If they had, they would have seen that Reporter X's view on the "case that will go unmentioned" isn't the same as mine. Yes, I was interviewed for the reports. And, yes, I did share info with them as with many others who were part of the case. This includes other paranormal teams that had visited the home prior to my visit, some of the ghost hunters that were there on the same weekend I was there, and the client herself. She was interviewed back in December and February via a Facebook IM chat.
The Chip Coffey Truth Project
Spring is the time to smell blooming flowers, and a time of new beginnings. Unfortunately this spring in the paranormal and the publishing world there is different smell – and it's unpleasant. It's not one you really want to encounter. It's the rotten stench that would only draw vultures and other fake para-celebrities. Where is it coming from? It's coming from a forthcoming book by the one and only Chip Coffey, and it's called "Growing Up Psychic." The publication requires us to start a series called The Chip Coffey Truth Project in which we'll take a close look at the claims made in the book. By doing so, we ask if the public being sold a bill of goods? The release date is April 3 but we already have some claims that need to be looked at.
Here is the official description for the book as seen on Amazon:
Internationally recognized psychic and star of A&E’s hit show Psychic Kids: Children of the Paranormal, Chip Coffey shares his personal story of discovering his gift at a young age and offers valuable advice for nurturing and embracing psychic ability.
NO one knows more about psychic kids than Chip Coffey, and no expert on psychic kids is better known throughout the world. These kids are widely misunderstood, misjudged, and misdiagnosed. In Growing Up Psychic, Chip Coffey offers indispensable information for anyone who interacts with these extraordinary youngsters—parents, educators, medical professionals, mental health clinicians, members of the clergy, paranormal investigators—and adults who faced the challenges of growing up psychic.
In Growing Up Psychic, drawing on his firsthand experience and the true stories of kids he has worked with and helped, Chip Coffey shows you how to:
Determine if a child is really psychic—as opposed to simply imaginative or
seeking attention
Identify the different kinds of psychic abilities kids (and adults) might have
Gain control over when and how psychic information is received
Safely connect with others in the psychic community
Deal with skeptics and disbelievers
seeking attention
Identify the different kinds of psychic abilities kids (and adults) might have
Gain control over when and how psychic information is received
Safely connect with others in the psychic community
Deal with skeptics and disbelievers
Each line begs to be exposed for the deceptions buried within their words.
Internationally recognized psychic and star of A&E’s hit show Psychic Kids: Children of the Paranormal
Psychic Kids was never a "hit." It lasted 3 years on cable TV, two on A&E, and one on the Bio channel [which gets very limited distribution on cable systems and is considered the graveyard for A&E programming, and very low budget reality programming]. The show did poorly in the ratings during its last season and was cancelled. Mr. Coffey's role in the program had been greatly reduced in season 3 as he was overshadowed by Chris Fleming who was younger and more in line with the viewing demographics.
Until recently Mr. Coffey could not bring himself to even mention that the show had been cancelled. From a recent blog post, he stated that A&E had not asked for anymore episodes and the future of the show was uncertain, but he had never been told that the show was cancelled. In Chip's grand fashion he takes a swipe at his critics by saying that the bad press did not kill the show. We guess it finally has as a few weeks later he posted there would be no more new episodes of either Psychic Kids or Paranormal State.
From Chip's own website:
Q: When is Psychic Kids returning to TV? Will there be any new episodes?
A : The A&E network has not ordered any new episodes of the show. Therefore, the future of Psychic Kids is uncertain. No one has ever told me that the show has been officially cancelled and it most definitely was NOT cancelled due to "bad press," as some folks on the Internet have wrongly stated.
Even the term "star" has to be questioned as it was an ensemble cast and Mr. Coffey was hired to play the role of the psychic supporting mental health professionals. So how was Chip the star of the show?
Chip Coffey shares his personal story of discovering his gift at a young age and offers valuable advice for nurturing and embracing psychic ability.
Where did Mr. Coffey get training to do be able to offer advice on this matter? How is he considered an expert on the subject of developing his gifts, or anyone's gifts? It seems that Mr. Coffey is only a psychic because he needed a job! Check out this video and keep your ears open when they start talking about why Chip began giving readings.
So is he responding to higher calling and a desire to help people? Nope, he's in need of a paycheck and if playing psychic gets it done, so be it.
Return next week as we continue to expose the truth.
Chip Coffey Fails Again…But He Loves Threatening People!
You don't have to be psychic to know that I'd rather watch an ant eat a bale of hay than listen to Chip Coffey do his song and dance. And just like I did last year when I decided to put Chippy to the test, I did the same thing by posting a few comments here and there about attending his Coffey Talk in L.A. Now old Chippy's spirit guides should have poked him. His third eye should have given him the vision/warned him. His ability to read tea leaves should have saved him…yet again he fails a simple psychic test! He also loves sending me legal threats so I laughed when I found this in my inbox:
Kirby,
Just a word of warning: if, in any manner, you try to attend or disrupt my event in Los Angeles, you will be removed from the premises by my private security, hotel security and, if necessary, by the LAPD.
You are not welcome at my events.
Sincerely,
Chip Coffey
NOTE: The man has anger issues. I wonder should a man with such issues really be working around kids? See how his threat escalates from his private security to hotel security to the LAPD?

The Dalai Lama Talks Tech
Computers are one of life's mysteries and great wealth one of its distractions, he says
The Dalai Lama, master of the mind's inner technology, is confounded by the external technology that drives the planet. He put it like this: ``My computer literacy is zero. It's partly because it wasn't easy to learn, so I just gave up.''
He broke into his booming laugh.
This was Wednesday morning in his Peninsula hotel room, where His Holiness Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, sat for a private interview with the Mercury News about money, technology and an ancient Buddhist prophecy. More about the prophecy later.
Back to computers. The Tibetan government in exile he oversees in Dharamsala, India, is well-wired with e-mail, computers and the Internet. A Bay Area devotee went to India to help put it together several years ago. It's a little surprising that the Dalai Lama, a famous tinkerer who disassembled and rebuilt watches for fun as a boy, hasn't jumped aboard the technological train.
But he cited precedent for his lack of interest: The fifth Dalai Lama, who was named Ngawang Losang Gyatso and lived from 1617 to 1682, once said he didn't "pay much attention to letter-writing skills because he felt he could always find someone to do it for him. Same for computers!''
He's busy enough.
The Dalai Lama, who wakes each day about 4 a.m. to pray, read and do prostrations, is in the midst of a five-day Bay Area visit for teachings, talk and ceremony through Sunday at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View.
He arrived for the interview without fanfare, wearing a pair of worn rubber flip-flops, bowing to his visitor and a photographer and settling into a sofa. He folded his feet beneath him on the cushion, lotus-style. With his closely shaved head, claret robe and spectacles, the Nobel Peace Prize winner, 65, looked to be the ``simple monk'' he calls himself. He zoomed in on questions and was never perfunctory with answers, though he sometimes struggled with his English. Then he turned to his longtime translator, Thubten Jinpa, for clarification.
The very fact of sitting in a Silicon Valley hotel room led to conversation about the vast sums of money generated here in recent years. Wealthy people sometimes are afflicted with a spiritual "restlessness"' because they rely on comforts at the sensorial level: good colors, good smells, good companions, including sex. But still, mentally, they are not necessarily happy. . . . The restlessness and unhappiness that occurs at the level of the mind is something that can only be addressed by a means that is mental. . . .
"Sophisticated machines produce very sophisticated articles,'" he said, "but cannot produce peace of mind. . . . If I go shopping and say, 'Please give me peace of mind. I will give you a million dollars,' I think the shopkeeper will laugh."
Though he is a religious man -- teacher, scholar, monk and, to Tibetans, the incarnation of divine compassion -- the Dalai Lama says he thinks most people do not derive their values directly from religious traditions. Given that reality, he said, a system of ``secular moral ethics'' must be taught to lift the lives and spirits of millions of people. The values he enumerated include nurturing what he calls a "warm heart," and a "sense of caring, a sense of sharing," as well as "self-discipline and contentment."
Oh, the prophecy.
It said that the dharma -- or teachings -- of Buddhism would pass to the land of the "red-faced peoples" 2,500 years after the coming of the historical Buddha, known as Shakyamuni. According to most calculations, those 2,500 years were up in the 1950s when the Dalai Lama fled Tibet. To some of his friends and followers, that means the Dalai Lama -- now an icon in the West -- is the inevitable expression of the prophecy.
Does he believe it?
"No."
He says there is more than one way to interpret the prophecy and to calculate the passage of time since the coming of Lord Buddha. He says the land of the red-faced man might be Tibet. And besides, this is precisely the type of statement the Dalai Lama steps away from. Tibetans call him a living god, but he describes himself as a political and spiritual leader in the real world.
Exiled from Tibet in 1959, the monk travels extensively in Europe and North America. Some might assume his goal is to spread Buddhism, but he said that's not so: "I'm propagating the value of human beings and religious harmony -- not Buddhism."
In fact, he said he sometimes feels "a little hesitant'' teaching about Buddhism in the West because he believes every religious tradition arises from a particular historical and cultural context, and, while people can change faiths, it's not necessarily advisable. A new tradition might not suit the convert and could end up causing "some confusion and some difficulties." That's why it is "better, safer, to keep your own tradition."
He expanded on this Wednesday at the Shoreline, during the first of three days of teachings on the Heart Sutra, a pagelong discourse at the center of Buddhist thought. Before the Dalai Lama were more than 7,000 people, many of them Buddhist students or converts to Buddhism. Some may have been surprised to hear him say there are certain Buddhist notions that Christians shouldn't necessarily probe, as they could undermine their own beliefs in God as creator..
But there are ways that religions and their ``many truths'' can enrich one another. For instance, he mentioned a group of ``Christian brothers,'' friends of his, who ``incorporated into their Christian practice methods for cultivating single-pointedness of mind . . . meditations and visualizations regarding compassionate behavior.''
Then he said Buddhism would benefit by emulating the Christian tradition of community service in education, health and other fields. That Buddhist institutions have often neglected to serve their communities was brought home by a German friend who visited Nepal and returned complaining that "he saw many large monasteries built by lamas. However, there were very few hospitals and schools built by the monasteries."
"There's nothing else the Buddhists can say but, 'He's right,'" the Dalai Lama said.
At the Shoreline, the Dalai Lama was seated, again lotus-style, on a raised platform behind which stretched a massive backdrop depicting the Himalayas and the Potala Palace, the towering centerpiece of the city of Lhasa, Tibet. The Dalai Lama grew up inside the gilded cage of the palace -- and escaped from it 42 years ago, slipping past the Chinese military and crossing the Himalayas to safety in India.
The men and women in the crowd listened raptly to the Dalai Lama's explanations, spoken in Tibetan and translated by Jinpa, who wore a sport coat and slacks amid 200 robed monks filling the stage.
The scene was bursting with typical colors of Tibet: maroon, saffron, blue. The audience, in shorts, T-shirts and sun hats, seemed to have arrived from a different world.
Yet Tom Flynn, director of a Buddhist retreat center in Soquel and a main event organizer, pointed out to the assembly that there was something very right about the day. It was entirely appropriate, he said, for the Dalai Lama to come to Silicon Valley.
After all, it used to be called the Valley of Heart's Delight.

Pyramid Power
By Rev. Dr. Fred Lee
The University of San Diego recently released a statement that says that they have scientifically proven that the proton aspect of the individual atom is 4% smaller today than it was 20 years ago. I think it would be safe to say that this has everything to do with the recent Solar Flare activity. The radiations that are being exhibited by these Solar Flares are indeed the waveform of protons. Another study of interest shows that solar neutrinos are not penetrating the Earth's crust to any great extent only, "0.025%". Obviously, the solar flare activity is our solar systems effort to feed a deficit that is being created by the buildup of various Solar and Cosmic Radiation.
Throughout the ages the atmosphere on planet Earth has undergone many changes. We have remnants of prehistoric animals that were able to grow to unbelievable size. Considering the fact that Japan tried to build a Pyramid 1/10 scale of the Pyramid of Cheops, and were unable to do so, with modern-day knowledge and technology, I think it would be safe to assume that the environment at the time of the building of the Pyramid of Cheops was of a lesser density. I feel that this is confirmed by many different findings, including dinosaurs.
As I have spent many hours and even days into years considering the big questions in life, I have come to the conclusion that the Pyramid of Cheops was developed to relieve this buildup of solar and cosmic energy. When you read about the Pyramid of Cheops, there are many interesting points to be considered.
One point is the fact that the Pyramid is aligned in a very purposeful way. We know that it had a Gold Capstone. Researchers have found that there is a pit at the floor of the Pyramid, that appears to go down toward the center of the earth indefinitely. Remnants of red chalk have been found near the base of the Pyramid. It is said that the bodies of dead animals have been found within the Pyramid in a state of being that shows no decay, even after prolonged periods of time. I read one statement that said that a carton of milk could be left in the Pyramid for a prolonged amount of time without spoiling. This is verifiable proof that the Pyramid, at some point in time interacting with or absorbed some type of unique energy.
If you read the clues, it becomes very clear that when the Pyramid of Cheops was in use, it was utilized to induct, Solar and Cosmic energy, and then direct the energy to relieve the buildup of various energies, "Solar Neutrinos, etc.".
Visualize the Pyramid of Cheops with it's Gold Capstone upon it, and the outer walls of the Pyramid coated with Red Chalk. Red is the lowest frequency in the visible energy frequency band. Now, understand that the Pyramid is being bombarded 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, 365 days a year, by Solar and Cosmic radiation. The Red Chalk would naturally attract and induct like frequency energy. The inducted energy would be refracted inward, "because of the geometric design of the Pyramid" , toward a deficit that would be created by the Gold Capstone. It is this process, that created the pit that has been found, as well as the unique energy findings.
This energy buildup I'm talking about is obviously the cause of the evolution of earthquake activity, and the list goes on.
I know that most people will say, "Nice Theory", and never think of it again. It's too bad, there are answers to all of life's problems. I have developed over 50 videos that target the big questions, and I offer some very comprehensive answers.

GOODBYE Donn Shy
By Reap Paden
When I started getting involved in the paranormal one of the things that struck me first was the bickering that always seemed to be going on between this group and that group.Fights over who had rights to some grainy out of focus picture that only showed a lack of ability to hold still while pushing a button.
It seemed people were constantly bad mouthing others for the sole reason of making themselves look better. NOTE: Whenever you find the best way to make yourself look good is to tear down the honest work of others there is a flaw in your thinking process, have it checked out.
Groups would argue over names, members, 'haunted' locations, drunk/drug using members, type of equipment being used, method, how good they looked on TV, who's story was the most real, who had the coolest t-shirts, who was an 'expert', and who knew the most 'famous' paranormal celebrities, (note: That list does not include chip coffey. He is a list all his own, see "moronic lunatics who use children for their own gain, lie about having super-powers, laugh at the medical conditions of others when they think no one is looking, and clearly have serious mental health issues which need addressing yet lack anyone who cares enough to get them the professional help they need " yes the title is long but the list is short. Chip Coffey's name is on it 3 x).
Between the infighting and drama sometimes it was hard to find much to like about the paranormal community. I can name 3 or maybe 4 people off the top of my head who never contributed to that feeling. Out of all the people I've met, helped, criticized, fought with, befriended, hated, pointed and laughed at, ther are just these few people who truly did stand out above the rest. One of them was Donn Shy. i can't tell you that I was her best friend or that I ever even had the chance to meet her in person. I can't tell you what song she would sing while she got dressed in the morning and I can't tell you who broke her heart the most times. I can't speak to every accomplishment in her life and there are a thousand other things that I will never get a chance to know about her. I can speak to some things I do know.
There have been times when I was not very well liked in the paranormal community, but Donn Shy never jumped on the hater bandwagon. She didn't judge and she didn't talk out of both sides of her mouth. She would talk to me about some new drama going on without ever being negative to either side just accepting people for what they were and there were a few times her demeanor helped me to temper my own anger so that I could see the story a bit more clearly. Donn helped support so many people including myself and her efforts made the paranormal community a more interesting endeavor. She helped make it possible that people got a chance to meet and listen to the personalities they found interesting. She brought people together and the dialog that resulted from her work made the world a more interesting place.
Donn Shy accepted people for what they were, people. I wasn't going to take a much deserved jab at chip coffey in this piece. I at first thought it would cheapen the words. Then I heard Donn Shy's voice "Reap, you troublemaker" followed by her laugh and realized there was no way for me to cheapen her memory she would have accepted anything I had written for exactly what it was, priceless memories of a friend taken too soon expressed in my own way.
The best way to respect someones actions in life is to keep them alive and make sure others have a chance to know a person they will never meet for the wonderful person they were while here with us. Since nothing ever really goes away once it is on the internet I figured I would gather a bunch of those memories from people who knew her well and some who only had a brief interaction and put them in one place to make it easier for people to recognize the type of person we lost when Donn Shy passed away. Thanks to everyone who provided these memories.
When I first started doing The SLAB, Donn was one of our biggest supporters. She used to hang out in the chat room and keep things rolling in there.She used to she was always giving us moral support. Not because we were paying her but because she was a genuinely nice person and loved doing things for others in the paranormal community. We really miss her.
-Randy Ivy
She has stayed with us and "just chilled." She has been with us at many events, and behind the scenes for fun. She has also, supported me from day one. Regardless of my changing, growing, learning and new views on life and the "un" known. She was a one of a kind, and a true kind individual in a world of division. She never "believed" nor was a "debunker." She was always a true Skeptic. Donn Shy was one of the very rare individuals that always promoted, supported and cared for anyone with a point of view that may help to contribute to an actual realization to facts. She was not only a dear friend, but a very open minded skeptic that sought only real answers to the questions that "haunt" us all. Rest In Peace" Donn. If there are answers to the questions that we all seek. You have spent a lifetime searching for them and found them. The rest is up to us to do the same. The one memory that I will always have of you, is the smile, hugs and fun that you always shared with me over the years.
-Ed and Lisa Craft
Donn Shy's passion for the paranormal, and always positive message set her apart from the "norm" of the field. Her kindness, generosity, and genuine qualities set the bar high for those with paranormal pursuits. Her friendship is unparalleled. It was an honor working with her on the show, and she is deeply missed.
-Kathy Barts, Host of ParaChallenged Radio
Donn was the one that brought the STU to live stages everywhere. One thing about her I always remember is Love everyone regardless how they feel about you. Miss her
- Scott Gruenwald
Donn was one of the most compassionate and caring people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. In this "paranormal arena" that all too often sees discord and infighting, I can honestly say I never heard Donn say an unkind word about anyone. Her heart was in the right place always, her laughter was infectious and she would often times sacrifice her own goals for the benefit of others. Now she's crossed to the other side and has all the answers she was seeking as an investigator - and I'm incredibly jealous of her for that!
-Patrick Burns
"Donn Shy was known as the 'Paranormal Publicist'... she worked tirelessly to promote people within the paranormal community she aligned herself with.... never herself. Her radio show, 'The Green Room" was one of my favorite broadcasts. Donn appeared on Encounters with us many times, and I appreciated her enthusiasm and dedication to furthering the cause of the paranormal. She will be missed by many - she never talked in a negative way about anyone... she blessed us all all with dignity and grace"
-Tim Yancey
Without Donn Shy's wonderful smile and light, there is a void in the paranormal community!
-Keith Age
Donn was an angel down on this earth as well as now above. She want a true friend and associate to Spooked Television. We miss her very much but know shes doing PR now for the big boss in heaven above. bless her and her family.
-The Booth Brothers
She was the first person to support you and offer a hand. That's what I remember about her. She was after me to write a book and she would promote it. She was a really great person. I knew she was terminal its just terrible. But, I'll bet she is back and forth to Queen Mary her ghost love.
-Moebanshee
Donn Shy was such a fixture in the paranormal community and if there was an event or a party you could be sure Donn would be there. I know every time I would go to an event I would immediately start looking for Donn’s funny hat that she had become famous for in the crowd. Without fail I would spot her and head over to give her a big hug.
I knew all was right when I saw Donn was on the scene. I will truly miss my little ritual and Sadly, I doubt Donn even knew that I always made sure to find her just to give her a hug and see how she was but it really had become a habit of mine. Things just wont be the same without her around but she left a big impact on the paranormal community while she was here. Her tireless efforts to advance the field will not be forgotten. She truly was loved and appreciated by all who knew her.
-Bob Davis, Planet Paranormal
Donn Shy - is a paranormal investigator and documentarian for The Pasadena Paranormal Research Society.
Donn is also a photographer, videographer, and writer, and is the freelance publicist for Inner Light - Global Communications, working directly with Tim Beckley, Mr. UFO. Donn is also known as The Para-Publicist, with a growing list of clients of her own.
Donn’s fascination with the paranormal started at a very young age. Growing up hearing stories from friends, family, and neighbors about ghosts and hauntings only fueled the desire to learn more. Thus began 35 years of personal study and research.
Feeling the need to collect her own evidence, she began investigating in 2002. Proof was obtained as Donn saw her first shadow person on the USS Hornet in Alameda, California in March 2008, and a week later witnessed an actual ghost in Volcano, California.
Shy has collected quite a number of Class “A” EVPs from various locations such as The Queen Mary in Long Beach, CA., Waverly Hills Sanitorium in Louisville Kentucky, and The Wolfe Manor in Clovis, CA., along with some very interesting video files.
Shy has a few interesting experiences within the paranormal realm that also drives her curiosity.
Donn’s enthusiasm for all things paranormal is a driving force that keeps her fascinated and always looking for more.
Donn Shy is missed much by many........

She brought people together and the dialog that resulted from her work made the world a more interesting place.
Donn Shy accepted people for what they were, people. I wasn't going to take a much deserved jab at chip coffey in this piece. I at first thought it would cheapen the words. Then I heard Donn Shy's voice "Reap, you troublemaker" followed by her laugh and realized there was no way for me to cheapen her memory she would have accepted anything I had written for exactly what it was, priceless memories of a friend taken too soon expressed in my own way.
The best way to respect someones actions in life is to keep them alive and make sure others have a chance to know a person they will never meet for the wonderful person they were while here with us. Since nothing ever really goes away once it is on the internet I figured I would gather a bunch of those memories from people who knew her well and some who only had a brief interaction and put them in one place to make it easier for people to recognize the type of person we lost when Donn Shy passed away. Thanks to everyone who provided these memories.
When I first started doing The SLAB, Donn was one of our biggest supporters. She used to hang out in the chat room and keep things rolling in there.She used to she was always giving us moral support. Not because we were paying her but because she was a genuinely nice person and loved doing things for others in the paranormal community. We really miss her.

She has stayed with us and "just chilled." She has been with us at many events, and behind the scenes for fun. She has also, supported me from day one. Regardless of my changing, growing, learning and new views on life and the "un" known. She was a one of a kind, and a true kind individual in a world of division. She never "believed" nor was a "debunker." She was always a true Skeptic. Donn Shy was one of the very rare individuals that always promoted, supported and cared for anyone with a point of view that may help to contribute to an actual realization to facts. She was not only a dear friend, but a very open minded skeptic that sought only real answers to the questions that "haunt" us all. Rest In Peace" Donn. If there are answers to the questions that we all seek. You have spent a lifetime searching for them and found them. The rest is up to us to do the same. The one memory that I will always have of you, is the smile, hugs and fun that you always shared with me over the years.

Donn Shy's passion for the paranormal, and always positive message set her apart from the "norm" of the field. Her kindness, generosity, and genuine qualities set the bar high for those with paranormal pursuits. Her friendship is unparalleled. It was an honor working with her on the show, and she is deeply missed.

Donn was the one that brought the STU to live stages everywhere. One thing about her I always remember is Love everyone regardless how they feel about you. Miss her

Donn was one of the most compassionate and caring people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. In this "paranormal arena" that all too often sees discord and infighting, I can honestly say I never heard Donn say an unkind word about anyone. Her heart was in the right place always, her laughter was infectious and she would often times sacrifice her own goals for the benefit of others. Now she's crossed to the other side and has all the answers she was seeking as an investigator - and I'm incredibly jealous of her for that!
-Patrick Burns
"Donn Shy was known as the 'Paranormal Publicist'... she worked tirelessly to promote people within the paranormal community she aligned herself with.... never herself. Her radio show, 'The Green Room" was one of my favorite broadcasts. Donn appeared on Encounters with us many times, and I appreciated her enthusiasm and dedication to furthering the cause of the paranormal. She will be missed by many - she never talked in a negative way about anyone... she blessed us all all with dignity and grace"
-Tim Yancey
Without Donn Shy's wonderful smile and light, there is a void in the paranormal community!

She was the first person to support you and offer a hand. That's what I remember about her. She was after me to write a book and she would promote it. She was a really great person. I knew she was terminal its just terrible. But, I'll bet she is back and forth to Queen Mary her ghost love.

Donn Shy was such a fixture in the paranormal community and if there was an event or a party you could be sure Donn would be there. I know every time I would go to an event I would immediately start looking for Donn’s funny hat that she had become famous for in the crowd. Without fail I would spot her and head over to give her a big hug.
I knew all was right when I saw Donn was on the scene. I will truly miss my little ritual and Sadly, I doubt Donn even knew that I always made sure to find her just to give her a hug and see how she was but it really had become a habit of mine. Things just wont be the same without her around but she left a big impact on the paranormal community while she was here. Her tireless efforts to advance the field will not be forgotten. She truly was loved and appreciated by all who knew her.

Donn Shy - is a paranormal investigator and documentarian for The Pasadena Paranormal Research Society.
Donn is also a photographer, videographer, and writer, and is the freelance publicist for Inner Light - Global Communications, working directly with Tim Beckley, Mr. UFO. Donn is also known as The Para-Publicist, with a growing list of clients of her own.
Donn’s fascination with the paranormal started at a very young age. Growing up hearing stories from friends, family, and neighbors about ghosts and hauntings only fueled the desire to learn more. Thus began 35 years of personal study and research.
Feeling the need to collect her own evidence, she began investigating in 2002. Proof was obtained as Donn saw her first shadow person on the USS Hornet in Alameda, California in March 2008, and a week later witnessed an actual ghost in Volcano, California.
Shy has collected quite a number of Class “A” EVPs from various locations such as The Queen Mary in Long Beach, CA., Waverly Hills Sanitorium in Louisville Kentucky, and The Wolfe Manor in Clovis, CA., along with some very interesting video files.
Shy has a few interesting experiences within the paranormal realm that also drives her curiosity.
Donn’s enthusiasm for all things paranormal is a driving force that keeps her fascinated and always looking for more.
Donn Shy is missed much by many........
