Neil Slade, a brain researcher and composer, explores Dynamo Jack’s claimed ability to generate electricity via acupuncture near the amygdala, lighting bulbs and igniting objects without physical contact, suggesting universal latent brain powers. Slade aligns this with ancient Taoist teachings and the enteric nervous system’s "second brain," where 100 billion nerve cells may store emotions—contradicting conventional science. Research at Menninger Foundation proved voluntary mind-body control, like altering heart rate or inducing OBEs through prefrontal cortex stimulation, while callers shared anecdotes of energy-based phenomena, including bowel movements triggered by mental focus. Bell urges listeners to investigate Slade’s work and a D.C. press event with Dr. Greer, hinting at revelations that could redefine human consciousness and its hidden capabilities.

From the high desert in the great American Southwest.
I bid you all good evening and or good morning wherever you may be across this great land of ours from Guam out across the Baitline, all the way east to the Caribbean and the U.S. Virgin Islands, where I'm going to go visit one day, south into South America, north all the way to the Pole.
This is Coast of Coast A.M. worldwide, of course, on the internet.
Well, good morning, everybody.
I would like to start tonight by welcoming a brand new affiliate, KXNO, in Des Moines, Iowa.
Some people have been heard to say yes Moines.
That's alright.
You should see what they do in the name of my little town, Brunt.
So in Des Moines, welcome 1460 on the dial.
5,000 big ones.
Great to have Des Moines online.
Good morning in Des Moines.
And it is morning in Des Moines and various forms of the day everywhere else.
Literally now, we reach across everywhere and from darkness to darkness and light to light.
Like the British Empire.
The sun never quite sets on coast to coast A.M. Coast to coast to coast to coast A.M. Well, oh, one more thing.
I want to remind our affiliates and our listeners that we have pre-feeds.
And every single night during the week when program's on, matter of fact, I think we do it on the weekend too.
But every night we prefeed three hours of the previous night show, the sound thinking here that people couldn't stay up that late.
And so, you know, they lost a lot of the previous night show.
And it has been working out really well, ratings-wise, for those stations across the country and elsewhere that have begun the show an hour or two or three early in the evening.
Really, really works out because the shows generally flow into each other, and it just simply makes sense to the audience.
Now, speaking of flow, wasn't last night interesting?
Was it one of the more interesting times you've ever had the opportunity to see what Hollywood does with a story, and then particularly when it is a focus on one person's life, a major motion picture on Patch Adams' life, and then have an opportunity to hear the person for real.
Isn't that interesting?
I mean, you should really ponder on that for a while.
I certainly have.
Absolutely fascinating.
Well, the power is going out, went out again today in California, large parts of California.
And now they're talking about turning off the power to the plants that are the refineries that are turning out whatever it is, the various products that refineries turn out, diesel, number two, gasoline, whatever, all they turn out.
They're talking about turning off the power to these places too.
And I watched some interviews on CNN, some of the operators, and they said maybe two or three days to get back in operation after something like that.
So this is going to become, this is going to start feed on itself as power goes off to refineries.
And they do have a bill they're trying to get through to save the refineries so they don't go off.
But if they do go off, it's going to obviously feed on itself.
Less energy, more demand equals more blackouts.
Obviously, right?
So what's going on in California will go on again.
They say tomorrow it's very, very serious.
And we are in the middle of the first just little heat wave of the coming summer.
It's going to get a lot worse.
And as they click on the air conditioners, as predicted in California, I told you that would happen, the blackouts would begin to get very serious, and they are.
And if they start shutting, I thought, boy, turning off refineries.
Maybe not a good idea.
What do you think?
All right, now, at the beginning of this hour, I want you to listen to me very carefully.
We're going to have Neil Slade on next hour, and we're going to be talking about the human brain.
Now, listen to me very carefully, because you're not probably going to get to see this in the second hour.
Well, I don't know.
Maybe you will.
Boy, do we have some servers, I'll tell you.
That's it, Art.
Brag on them and watch them go down.
Neil has brought with him a video the likes of which you probably have never seen before.
Or maybe some lucky few of you have seen something like this.
It's a news crew covering a man who's got a connection to his part of their brain that Neil frequently talks about.
Amygdala.
There it is.
Thank you.
Amygdala.
I can never been able to get my mind, haha, Neil, around that word, amygdala.
Anyway, he's got a wire hooked up.
And it shows what the news crew that's going through this goes through themselves, the fellow on camera and then the sound man, as they're filming this incredible event.
And the sound guy and the guy in the story are getting shocks from touching this man.
And you need to go to it early before Neil Slade gets here.
The real blowaway comes toward the end.
Toward the end, this man explains about the energy being created, how powerful it is, and also how dangerous it is.
It could be obviously very dangerous.
If you can heal with it, you can kill with it.
And he takes a newspaper out onto the sidewalk, and without at the end, he crumples it up, without at the end touching it with his hands at all, you'll see the newspaper begin to smoke and burst into flames.
This man holds his hand, what would you say, eight or ten inches above the newspaper, open hands, and the newspaper turns brown, begins smoking, and bursts into flames.
And all of this was covered by a camera crew.
And it's very clear.
Now, you're going to have to be the judge of what you're seeing yourself, but this is one mother of an amazing video.
And of course, it relates exactly to what Neil Slade is going to be talking about next hour.
Oh my, it's absolutely amazing.
So next hour, Neil will be along to talk about actually all kinds of things.
We've got quite a few things on our list.
For example, Neil is now saying that he believes we have a second brain.
A second brain.
Yes, one here in the old noggin.
But we have another brain somewhere else in our body.
No jokes here, please.
Where do you think the other brain is?
Oh, you know, I just realized what foolish answers I'm going to get from a lot of you.
So leave them out.
I can hear the jokes.
In fact, I've already made up three as I've been sitting here thinking about it.
I wonder if I'll be able to resist.
We better ask the question fast when we get Neil on, huh?
Set everything else at rest.
And then a third very popular category Neil's been into lately, I hear.
Brain love chemicals.
And the ever-popular one, one-hour brain orgasm.
He calls it a brain gasm.
All gasms are in the brain, right?
Anyway, we'll talk about all of that.
And of course, the now infamous, famous or infamous, depending on how you look at it, experiments that we did using mass numbers of brains in the audience.
But again, you have never in your life seen anything like this that we've got on the website tonight.
It's the amygdala, that's where the point where the wire is connected to the man's head.
And then the rest of it, ha, it's beyond all reason.
And unless you conclude it's some kind of magician's trick, and I don't think it is, then you must join me and so many others in the audience in beginning to understand that we are so very much more than we appear to be, a pile of chemicals worth X number of dollars with inflation.
I don't know what the human body is worth these days.
But we're more than that.
We're a lot more than that.
That's what this video shows.
And it's nice to have this level of proof.
And of course, there will inevitably be people around who will say it's some kind of magician's trick.
It's got to be.
And that's what the human mind tends to do.
It tends to relegate to magic anything that it doesn't fully understand.
If it's too amazing to be true, then it's magic for some people.
Other people understand this is real and can be done.
Either way, it will stun you, and my guess is you will want your friends to see it too.
It's that profound.
So again, just go to my website, artbell.com, go to program, and tonight's guest info, and then the name Neil Slade, and then just down below, first item, real video, firebrain-man, high speed, low speed.
You take your choice, and I guarantee it will be the most amazing thing that you saw today, anywhere.
Stephen Greer, Dr. Stephen Greer at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., is going to have a press conference.
It's going to blow the socks off any reporter with the cohonies to go over there and check it out.
He's going to have people at very high levels, fourth highest in the FAA.
I mean, you think about this, fourth highest in the FAA at the time.
He's going to have pilots and military personnel who are going to come forward and are going to give incontrovertible evidence, witness testimony of alien presence.
It will be interesting, won't it, to see what kind of press shows up.
This is a very serious presentation.
Now, I don't see how the press could...
You never know what they might do to it.
There's usually ridicule that goes along with it, but I would think if I were CNN, I'd have my butt over there big time.
I mean, we're talking about ratings here.
See, I'm appealing to their commercial side.
That's the way to get them there.
Appeal to their commercial side.
There's no question about the fact that those networks and television stations and C-spans and whoever all shows up or doesn't show up, whoever does show up, is going to have one hell of a story and their news network is going to get the ratings.
When you have people of this magnitude showing up to say what they're going to say, there's Major, justifiably covered news at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. 9 o'clock, Wednesday morning the 9th.
so will it not be interesting to see who shows and who doesn't i think uh...
I think there will be some press there.
And I think the reason is because, hopefully, because they're listening to me and they know those who dispatch people, reporters, for these reasons, they know that it's worth a lot of ratings.
It's worth one hell of a story.
It's a visual story that you can go and get.
People of great stature standing up to say amazing things, incredible things, things that will make a hell of a story.
Now maybe I'm talking directly to the assignment editors, I suppose.
Now we'll see what happens.
I have a letter here from Margaret down in the Antarctic.
Margaret is in the Antarctic, and she's really angry with us for the speculation that's been on the program about the Antarctic.
And she really gives us the biz.
And I will indeed read Margaret's letter here on the air.
So it's coming up, Margaret.
Get your recorder ready.
I'm going to read your letter on the air.
And you may well be right.
The trouble is, you see, we don't know.
unidentified
The trip back in time continues with Art Bell hosting Coast to Coast AM.
More somewhere in time coming up.
I look around me and I see it isn't so.
Some people wanna fill the world to city love songs.
And what's wrong with that?
I'd like to know.
Cause here I go.
Again.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
Why?
Why does he soar?
Take his face.
All this trip.
Just go on.
me I take a big ride Take a place of my sea It's my fear I'm scared for years But for hard just to wet my fears I'm to wet my life But I know,
I know I've been somewhere in time with Art Bell continues courtesy of Premier Networks.
We received the following scathing message from Margaret down, she says, in Antarctica.
And it does indeed come from McMurdo.gov.
So I think it's authentic.
And it says, I've never heard such outrageous bull as I heard on your show about Antarctica.
I'm down at McMurdo and happen to know all 11 people who left on the medevac.
The reason that their medical conditions were not publicized is that their privacy is being protected.
It's none of your damn business what their physical problems may be.
They left for a variety of reasons, some medical, some personal.
For you and your cohorts to take bits of information and construct paranoid conspiracy fallacies, then broadcast them to the public is worse than irresponsible.
It's unethical.
And it's unduly worrying those of our family and friends who are naive and trusting enough to believe you.
Did it ever occur to you that the email comment made by the New South Pole doc, stuffing her pockets with salt was a joke?
Yes.
They're low on salt at the pole, because the people who do the ordering for down here are less than perfect.
Here at McMurdo, they forgot to order chicken, popcorn, and flour tortillas.
What kind of conspiracy theory are you going to make out of that?
Flour, I'd say.
Flour?
They really forgot to order flour?
now see they forgot to order salt and flour now those uh...
are pretty Don't you feel the tiniest bit absurd?
We certainly think you are.
Your broadcasts are passed around as a joke down here.
And this isn't by management or Euraytheon blacks ops folks.
We're just average people making a living in an unusual place.
You will say whatever you want with no consequences for all the lies you tell.
That is an unfortunate result of the free speech that we hold dear in our country.
Just know there are many of us out here who know the truth.
Signed, Meg Davis.
P.S. I doubt very much if you have the nerve to read this in its entirety on your program.
So you lost on that one, anyway.
And as for the rest of it, Meg, the world has an interest in what happens down there.
And the rest of the world, and I too, find it more than a little unusual that the two doctors who came out under emergency conditions were taken out with, indeed, the symptoms of the illness requiring an unusual evacuation at a very dangerous time of the year.
You know, we were told all about it.
And lots of information flowed from McMurdo about what was wrong.
So then, how are these other 11 people different?
Well, you say it's none of our damn business.
Maybe true.
But I don't buy into that.
I think, actually, we do have a right to be concerned about it.
I think it's unusual enough, and the numbers are large enough.
And then there's those two that were in critical condition, Meg, and we still don't know what happened to them.
So I wrote Meg back, and I told her that if she would like to tell us the truth, then maybe there wouldn't be so many rumors flying around about what people imagine, because when they don't know what's going on, they imagine things.
And the South Pole is a very unusual place with very unusual things going on, magnetic anomalies in the ice.
And then I was thinking about flour.
Now, what would be if you were ordering food and things that would keep you alive and you knew that you were going to get nothing all the winter long, all winter long, you'd be really, really careful about what you ordered, right?
And the staples, the basic stuff like flour and salt that you've got to have to live, those would be staples that you wouldn't make that kind of mistake on.
I think.
Salt, you've got to have salt.
You have to have salt.
And flour is such a basic that I find it a little more than passing strange that you would forget that.
So what I would suggest, Meg, is that you write us back an email, since I've read yours now, and tell us what really went on down there.
And we can accept the truth.
If it was a fight, if it wasn't just a matter of personal preferences, people hop in a plane, there were two separate things, rescues going on here, right?
So I could buy into the possibility of a fight, but Meg, I must tell you otherwise, there will be lots of imagining that's going on about what's going down on down in the Antarctic because that's people's nature.
When they don't know the truth, then they begin imagining all sorts of things.
And can you blame them?
So the best way to clear it up would be to tell us what happened.
I mean, it's fine.
You can tell us it's none of our damn business, and I guess it can end there and people just keep wondering, or you can tell us what happened.
That's up to you all down there.
But if you were on our side of the whole story, I think that you would be also wondering very, very hard about what's going on down there.
There are a lot of strange circumstances converging all at once.
Simple as that.
All right, open lines directly ahead.
Actually, there's so much more.
So much about Mr. Tito.
We're trying to get an interview with Mr. Tito, who just got back.
And I've got articles on Mr. Tito and articles on Golden and his attitude about it all.
And this has just been the most amazing, amazing thing.
Golden made some comments about the filmmaker, James Cameron, that were considerably more friendly than toward Mr. Tito.
And so you have to wonder what's going on there.
It's kind of like Cameron seems as though he'll be all right to NASA because he's willing to wait until the time is right for NASA to say, okay, come on up.
So we'll have to watch what happens there.
It's a really interesting story.
Gasoline prices going up exponentially.
The $3 guess in Chicago is going to turn out, I'm afraid, to be a pretty good one.
And probably $3 elsewhere.
Can you imagine that for a gallon of gasoline?
What do you think that will do to our economy?
If it actually went up to $3 a gallon, then you're talking about an impact on an economy.
Very serious impact indeed.
All right, a break and then open lines.
Stay right there.
unidentified
Stay right there.
You're listening to Art Bell Somewhere in Time.

Or the fungus survived and thrives in warm salt water, relatively warm to where it's been, surviving.
It survived in space, right?
So now that it's got a little gravity and it's got some nutrients to feed on in the ocean, it's going to get real big and come ashore and it's going to have big teeth.
The whole thing involving the 11 was really pretty mysterious, frankly.
The dock, that was covered extensively by the news, almost at times exclusively by the news, while the 11 flew way under the radar and still really, even though Meg laid it on it, she said it's none of your damn business.
So, you know, something happened.
unidentified
Well, that was never in the news story.
They kept putting a little bit more in every day after they started off with the one doctor.
Well, I don't know why it didn't get the attention that it did, considering that there's no flights into the Antarctic for like, what, six, seven months a year?
Now, maybe we're not entitled to the whole story, as she said.
But it seems to me that we should have some understanding of what went on, and that if we did, it would prevent the kind of speculation that's going on that disturbs her so.
And I think it's natural that because it's an entire continent peopled by so few that there's a natural worldwide curiosity about it.
Now, maybe she's right, and it's none of our damn business.
But they certainly made it our business to know about the doctor and every little bit of everything that was wrong with him medically and why the heroics to go down there and all the rest of that.
So then to me, it seems, yes, unusual that we would be told to go stick our heads in the sand when we want to know about the others.
So many.
Of course, we're curious.

Tonight featuring Coast to Coast AM from May 8th, 2001.
There is the most amazing video that you've ever seen in your whole life on my website right now.
And we have it up there because I fear that Niels would not handle the traffic.
In fact, I know so.
We also have his website up there, and there's all kinds of interactive discussion areas and all kinds of things.
If you'll go to my website right now, the one you want to see, just go to artbell.com.
Go to program.
Go to tonight's guest info.
There you will see the name Neil Slade.
Scroll down.
First thing you'll see will be real video, Fire Brain Man, high speed and low speed versions.
I recommend the high speed if you can do it.
It'll blow your mind.
This guy, it shows a guy with an electrode hooked up to his eggmygdala.
You see, I'm never going to be able to say that word unless I see it.
If I see it, and it's somewhere here in the paperwork, I can pronounce it.
Amygdala.
Amygdala.
Why am I blocking that word?
Amygdala.
He's got a wire hooked up, and then you'll see the doctor actually shock the cameraman.
There's video and sound here.
I mean, you can see the whole thing.
He'll shock the cameraman, then the sound man, actually give him a shock, and then toward the end, the most amazing thing you've ever seen of all, a man will set a newspaper on fire with his hands.
He's not even touching the paper when it occurs.
It is absolutely amazing.
That's on the website right now, and it should be a precursor, or should certainly, if you have a computer, to go with listening to what you're about to hear tonight.
Because it's amazing.
Nothing short of amazing.
It is there right now.
We'll be right back.

Thank you.
You're listening to Art Bell somewhere in time.
Tonight featuring Coast to Coast AM from May 8, 2001.
Coast to Coast AM I should tell you a little bit about Neil Slade, shouldn't I, now that we have him here?
Neil Slade is a teacher, musical composer, concert performer, author, and for 11 years was primary assistant to brain and behavior researcher TDA Lingo at the Dormant Brain Research and Development Laboratory situated high in the Colorado Rocky Wilderness.
He's been heard on radio stations around the world explaining to Londoners and Russians alike how ordinary citizens can turn on fantastic, unprecedented levels of new intelligence, creativity, and pleasure, as well as obviously paranormal abilities such as telepathy,
precognition, clairvoyance, claroaudience, whatever that is, and telekinesis, as easily as clicking on a light switch.
Slade has even been employed by the Denver Public Schools to teach an entire elementary school student body and the teachers how to circuit past reptile brain attack behaviors and in fun cooperative trust intelligence by merely learning a few brain basics.
His five books on brain self-control are all recommended by the prestigious Menza International Journal.
That's not bad, huh?
As well as the respected Bloomberry Review, National Book Review Magazine, and the National Alternative Press.
He maintains a very extensive worldwide website, The Amazing Brain Music Adventure, at www.neilslade.com.
We've got a link up to that right now on the website.
But you must see this video.
And by now, I trust that many of you have, so that when we do get the call part of this show, call in part of this show, you will have seen it and you'll be able to comment.
You've either got to believe the man is doing it as you see it done on video here, or it's some kind of magic trick.
Or as I said earlier, magic may apply simply to those things that our brain can't comprehend as possible.
It's magic.
Here is Neil Slade.
And now, Neil, you were telling me something about your dog did this, right?
You've got to tell people, if they don't have a home computer, get to your public library and either go to your site or my site and look at this video.
For the sightless or those who really don't have a computer, the whole group that's not going to be able to see this, let us describe what's in this video and what's happening.
This is a video produced by Lawrence and Lauren Blair.
It's not a video, it's actually from a film documentary of their travels through Indonesia.
And they spent 10 years back in the 80s sailing on boats from island to island, and they went to all the Indonesian islands and discovered all kinds of interesting ways that people lived.
They went into the deep woods of rainforests of Borneo where white man had never been before.
They went to Java.
They went to Bali, all the little islands.
Their film is about their travels, this particular film.
Well, you know, I just spoke with Lawrence Blair on the phone a couple hours ago.
I called him in Bali.
And he lives actually about 30 miles from me here up in Boulder, Colorado.
And I talked with his producer, and I called Lawrence, and I wanted to get some more details that I didn't yet have on this doctor.
And he's now, he recently, he's working on a new book and a movie about this particular individual who is absolutely remarkable.
He recently had scientists, we're talking about hard-nosed scientists from the European community come and check the guy out and make sure there were no tricks and that this was not sleight of hand.
And he told me about some of the things that Dynamo Jack was doing in the presence of the scientists.
But I mean, even with somebody who really knows what they're doing, without the aid, for example, of uh-oh, I don't know, some sort of visual aid that would allow the person to look at your brain while they're doing this so they know where they're going, wouldn't there be some small You must have thought about all this before you did it, right?
Well, you know, if we're looking at the video, this needle is placed in an area that is adjacent to the amygdala and probably, you know, into the rear of the eyeball as well.
So this was an eye ailment that he was treated for.
The trip back in time continues with Art Bell hosting Coast to Coast AM.
More Somewhere in Time coming up.
Love will be strong, we gotta get right past where we started wrong.
Do you remember that?
The day in Scotland, when you first came my way, I said, No one could take your place.
Get hurt.
Get hurt.
Where are those happy days?
They seem so hard to find.
I tried to reach for you, but you have lost too much.
Whatever happened to my love.
I wish I understood It used to be so nice, it used to be so good So when you're near me darling, can't you hear me?
S.O.S.
The love you gave me nothing less than save me S.O.S.
When you're gone, how can I even try to go on?
When you're gone, go outside, how can I carry on?
You seemed so far away that you were standing near You made me feel alive, but something died I'd fear I really tried to make it up I wish I understood What happened to you?
You're listening to Art Bell somewhere in time, tonight featuring Coast to Coast AM from May 8th, 2001.
Good morning, the brain guy is here, Neil Swade, and I distracted him a little bit and stopped him from giving a sort of a vocal rendering of the visual rendition you can get on my website of this absolutely astounding piece of video.
There's sound and video.
Go see it.
Trust me on this.
Your friends are going to want to see it.
You'll complain if you don't see it.
So just take the time and trouble and go to your computer and go to arpel.com and see it.
You know, I distracted him because to me, there's always been something particularly horrible about the specter of taking a needle and screwing it into somebody's brain.
I mean, that's about, to me, that's as bad as it gets.
And I can tell you something, I'd have a lot of, I'd one awful eye infection before I'd ever let anybody screw anything in my brain.
For an eye infection, I wouldn't do it.
Give me penicillin.
But, no, there's so much more to this story that I didn't mean to distract him.
unidentified
we'll get back to that story in a moment for those who cannot see Now, we take you back to the past on Art Bell Somewhere in Time.
In this particular case, I don't know the exact current.
And as a general rule, I couldn't tell you how much voltage it is.
I haven't had the electric acupuncture done, but I have been told it just feels like a warmth where heat, you feel it as heat being applied to where that is.
And the doctors who use that have a big machine that sits on a tabletop, and you plug it into 120 volts, and then through the transformer, it sends the safe amount of current through the acupuncture jump cables, which are clipped onto the acupuncture needle.
And so I'll find that out for you, and I'll let you know how much voltage.
You know, it's a variable amount of voltage, and I believe that depends on the acupuncture needle site and the ailment as well.
But in this particular video, electric acupuncture is used.
However, there's no machine plugged in.
What's happening is this Taoist physician is producing the electric current like a human electric eel in his own body.
And then by putting his hands, and he's focusing the electric current to flow into his arms and then into his fingertips, he twists the needles or touches the needles with his hands.
And this transfers the electric current into the needles.
Now, Lauren talks about on the video, and you can see the involuntary motion that his arms and his hands are going through.
And Lawrence says, he says, well, is there any way you can generate the electricity other than through your hands?
He says, no, generally it's through my hands.
And he says, here, hold out your hand and I'll show you.
This might burn a little.
It's nothing, he says.
And then he holds out his hand and, you know, like that picture on the Sistine Chapel where the two hands meet, he gives Lawrence such a shock that he jumps back.
And I believe you actually hear the microphone pop.
And I edited this tape so you don't see her doing this.
But she starts tapping on the microphone to show that it picked up the sound of this electrical pop from her.
So that's the basic demonstration.
And then they ask him how, you know, his background, and he explains that he's done it by using the power of his mind, brain through the meditation, that he can focus it.
And that really this is a latent power.
He says what he can do is nothing special, that everybody can do this if they would only learn to focus their mind.
Okay?
And he then does the final demonstration, and he takes an ordinary newspaper and holds it up to the camera, tears a big sheet, and then crumples it very, very loosely and sets it down on the ground in front of everyone.
The only time I've ever seen a newspaper burst into flame so quickly and burn up so quickly is when I put a newspaper into a frighteningly hot fireplace and had been burning logs for hours.
I put it right on the table in front of me right now, and I'm going to be working on causing this to burst into flames between now and the end of the show.
Okay.
I don't think it's going to happen.
Obviously, it takes a great deal of some kind of training to get to this point.
I mean, you don't just jump into that kind of talent.
I believe many years ago I first saw this clip on PBS.
And now in the preparation for the upcoming book and movie that Lawrence is doing on this fellow now, he got the scientists to come to Bali and did the research.
But Dynamo Jack is not the first one to undergo really rigorous scientific investigation.
Swami Rama was a Himalayan Yoga Master, grew up in the Himalayan mountains of India, and in the 60s came to the United States and began traveling in the western countries to teach meditation and yoga.
In the spring and autumn of 1970, he conducted at the request of the Meninger Foundation.
This is a research establishment in Topeka, Kansas, with a long, respected history.
And they were running a voluntary controls research program.
And among the people that they invited to investigate was Swami Rama, there's another fellow, Jack Schwartz, who also demonstrated extraordinary voluntary controls of the mind and body and demonstrated telekinesis and so on.
Under very stringent laboratory conditions, despite what the amazing Randy might claim as scientists having the wool pulled over their eyes.
You know, you mentioned to Lawrence, and I get this via the producer, that he was starting to have bad dreams about all the publicity.
And he really has no desire for fame or fortune.
His ability is a purely frontal lobes, cooperative, compassionate service.
And this ties very much in with what Patch Adams was talking about last night.
The true healer does not have the thoughts of riches or fame or material desires.
And I would, in my opinion, one of the reasons that this particular doctor is able to draw upon these powers is because they are very much integrated with the whole system of compassionate cooperative behaviors.
Obviously, though he didn't exactly say it, the power that he has could be used to heal or it could also be used if you wanted it to, at his level, to kill.
I tried, for 20 minutes, I tried to set Neil's bio on fire.
I hovered my hand very close to the paper times, actually touching it, hoping for something, and there was nothing.
So I decided, well, I'm going to have some fun then.
And so I took Neil's bio and I turned my webcam on and I lit it with my Bic.
And I thought, this will make a cool webcam picture.
So I got back here and I was waiting for it to snap.
You know, it snaps every two minutes.
And so when I thought it was getting close, I lit it.
And I was sitting here waiting for it to snap.
And the fire was getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
I was waiting for it to snap.
And then it started burning my hand.
And finally it snapped.
And it was so underwhelming because when you go to look at the picture on my webcam right now, you're going to really, it's hard to discern between the paper and the fire and the fact that it's scorching my hand.
Then, after it snapped the picture, I had a real hard time getting it out.
And it smelled terrible, and it burned my hand.
So that wasn't even worth it at all.
So if you go now to my webcam, you will see me holding this paper, which is actually on fire, but you can barely tell that.
You can hardly tell that.
It wasn't even worth it.
And now I don't have his bio anymore anyway.
Anyway, Neil Slay.
See, the video on my website is nothing like this.
This guy did it for real.
It is awesome to see.
We're going to continue talking with Neil about our brains in a moment.
Stay right.
Boy, this does hurt.

Stay right there.
You're listening to Art Bell somewhere in time.
Tonight featuring Coast to Coast AM from May 8, 2001.
By the way, for those of you who have written me, some of you hear what's going on during the network breaks, and because of the after strike, the after-strike, they're not playing the usual public service announcements during the break that they used to play because Of actors' fees or whatever in the hell the big struggle is going on right now.
So they have sent us this strange music that we are supposed to play during the breaks.
It's not my choice of music.
This is generic music.
And it's pretty awful.
But we're playing that during the breaks until the resolution of whatever in the hell is going on is resolved.
Just thought you might want to know, I get a lot of emails on that.
Some of you don't ever hear it.
Others who hear the breaks do hear it.
And it's not our fault.
We have nothing to do with that.
When the stupid thing is over, we'll get back to normal.
And we don't know when that'll be.
All right, back now to Neil Slade.
Well, now your bio's toast, and so is part of my palm.
I'm relaying to you and your audience the newest scientific findings on our nervous system.
And interestingly enough, it really ties in with Dynamo Jack.
Because Dynamo Jack, when he explains where he's generating the electricity from that he then guides and controls with his big brain, he points to the area where the scientists are saying our second brain is.
There's a nervous system in the belly, and we're talking about in the intestines called the enteric nervous system.
And it's been kind of, you know, we knew about this, but it's been kind of ignored.
But doctors are now understanding how it is so similar to our big brain in our head, and that it's just not an extension of the nervous system.
Now, what it is, it's a network of nerves that surrounds the let me let me state it this way.
Scientists who study the network surrounding the esophagus, stomach, and intestines compare the better known brain in the head to a mainframe computer, for example.
Because the biological belly brain is a relic of the distant past, at a time when the most important thing in life was eating as opposed to thinking.
Now, millions of years before the dinosaurs, thinking about tomorrow was distinctly less important than finding the good grub for today, for example.
These primitive animals had another concern, and the main concern was keeping their belly full.
Now, when animals evolved into doing something more than eating, then they evolved the better-known brain in the skull.
Now, they know by studying growing fetuses in the womb that both brains actually originate from a structure called the neural crest.
And it appears and divides during fetal development, and then it forms these both separate thinking parts of the brain.
They know that the centeric brain, which they've begun studying, and the expert in this field is a fellow by the name of Michael Gershon, who has actually written a book called The Second Brain.
The difference between this bundle of nerves and the rest of the nerves, such as the nerves that we have that control motor movement, that go through our arms and legs, is that this bundle of nerves in our belly is independent.
It is capable of independent actions.
Now, for example, if we were to cut a connection from the base of our brain, we would no longer be able to move the tips of our fingers.
We would lose that motor and we'd lose the sensory information.
Additionally, there is the very famous story of the lady who received the transplant from the 18-year-old boy, middle-aged lady, a heart and lungs she got.
Yes.
And as you know, she woke up with the wants of an 18-year-old boy and actually ended up dreaming the donor's name, which was a secret.
And this came right after she received the heart and lungs of this 18-year-old.
Yes, then she actually dreamed his name, which is impossible.
So anyway, that would seem to suggest that there is some sort of cellular memory in our body parts, and particularly those, you know, our heart, our lungs, which are in the center of our body here.
And this is what Dr. Prince is saying, that these gut reactions that we have, in other words, feelings towards, you know, like you're suggesting foods that we eat, but he's suggesting that other types of behaviors that we may exhibit and process.
It may be that the power, this meaning of the yin and yang that our dynamo Jack is drawing upon is more than just his own personal power, but perhaps the collective conscious memory connection that's coming, that's emanating from his belly.
And what's also very interesting is many psychoactive medicines that are designed to affect the psychology and the mood altering of patients,
those same drugs, almost without exception, have an effect on the activity in the stomach and in the digestive tract and in this area of the brain.
And the reason being is that, unlike the other nerves in the system, this enteric brain in our belly has the same neurotransmitters as the big brain in our head.
So what we're finding is all, what the scientists are finding is all these similarities between this independently operating brain in the belly and the brain in the head.
Now, what clicked when I discovered this was a couple of pieces of information concerning these higher states of consciousness derived from meditation and the similarity in technique,
not of technique, but the way in which this belly area of the body is used by people who practice yogic healing and meditation.
To me, it's to imagine, first of all, the kind of voltages that you're talking about that we can see applied in this video or would be required to set the paper on fire or apparently do what was seemingly done to those people in the video.
Those voltages just I don't see how they could be physically marshaled by the body ever.
I mean, we have nothing like that.
The voltages that are measured generally in our body, in our brains, or any part of our body, are little, tiny, barely measurable.
Now, if you take a wire and you wrap it around and around and around, you can step up the voltage from a very low amount of voltage to a very high amount of voltage.
In other words, if the discipline involved by this man is to have the brain arrange these nerve cells so that they're conducting in a manner that would be similar to a transformer, that's very interesting.
And one of the things that Don Juan would have Carlos do is practice projecting the will from the belly, like tentacles, like octopus tentacles, and focus on moving the will from the belly.
So again, here's reference to this other nerve brain center in the body.
And then we see Dynamo Jack, he's pointing to his belly, saying, this is where the yin and the yang come together.
Now, yes, I know what a transformer does and how it does it.
And so, yes, if one could direct one's nerve endings to act in effect as a transformer would, and I can imagine that could be done with your brain, then you could take it around and around and around and around and produce a tremendous amount of voltage from that infinitesimal amount of voltage.
Definitely could be done if you could do it.
Pretty good analogy, actually.
This is Coast to Coast AM.

what do you think that our other brain thinks about Hmm.
Does it think stuff like, oh no, not popcorn again?
Or does it have higher thoughts like, I guess it does have higher thoughts, doesn't it?
In other words, it contemplates almost subconsciously that something is either a good idea or a bad idea, kid of my stomach, gut feeling, all those expressions relate to an intuitive nature of some sort, right?
It may very well tie in with the telepathic, paranormal, non-verbal sense that we get about things.
is perfectly described by the word gut feeling.
And I think what the teachers such as Don Juan and Mantok Chia are pointing to is learning how to integrate these nonverbal gut feelings into our whole being so that we function as a whole rather than being compartmentalized.
You know, into verbal information or logical information or that kind of thing.
When we think of the belly, we tend to think of a big unit.
We think it's the center of our whole body, as it were.
I guess now an orgasm, where does a person have their orgasm?
Do they have it?
You know, that's an orgasm, actually, all kidding aside, which is almost impossible when you get on the subject, but all kidding aside for a second, you don't, do we really know when you have an orgasm where it comes from?
And there's a couple of neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, that play a very important part in that part of the brain.
It's not what I think, this has actually been proven by scans of the brain, by researchers who have applied chemicals and have applied electrical currents to this part of the brain.
And so they know where it's happening.
And a fellow by the name of Alan Brower at Stanford University around 1980 published a book called ESO, and where he documents how he has taught laboratory subjects how to deliberately and consciously control the amount of peak sexual experience so
that it lasts not for that 30 seconds, but that it goes on for a minute.
I know this sounds crazy to a lot of people, but I had a physician on the show, I don't know, a couple months ago, I guess now, and doing legitimate research into spinal cord injury.
This doctor, in trying to alleviate pain, people with horrible, unrelenting, terrible back pain, was doing experimentation with applying voltages To the spinal area.
And he discovered that one certain area of the spine, it was all accidental.
He discovered that if you apply the voltage, put the wires in there, and apply the voltage, it produced in his female patients instant orgasm at the push of a button.
I'm not kidding you.
This is very, very serious university-level research.
And in fact, he was so amazed by it.
He was a gynecologist.
And he was so amazed by it that, no, he wasn't a gynecologist.
I'm sorry.
He was a surgeon of some sort, and he consulted with gynecologists about this.
And they got to talking about it.
And it's something that had never been approached before.
He was so intrigued by the idea that he has patented the process and frankly says he expects to make money on it.
But he applies voltage in just the right place to the spine.
An orgasm is produced every time you press the button.
straight up to the break straight up to the brain straight up to the break what was on You know, there have been many people who have begun to start writing books on this subject of how you increase the pleasure responses in the brain.
Now, my angle has been that the observations that were made at the brain lab that I took part in found that this type of response was more a byproduct of clearing out malfunctions in the brain,
that one didn't necessarily have to deliberately go after this type of experience.
Dr. Brower taught his subjects a series of exercises they could do to accomplish this, and you'd have to practice this for a certain amount of time over a period of weeks and months, and you would get more and more, you know, increased pleasurable response to this.
But people such as T.D. Lingo, when he started working with his subjects at the brain lab, found that when they began to discharge repressed trauma memories that they had been carrying around since childhood, one of the functions, apparently, of the orgasmic response was a cleansing out of the brain.
As if the waste products from release trauma memories were cleansed out by this orgasmic process.
And that ties in with what Wilhelm Reich stated many, many years ago about the function of the orgasm.
So what has been shown by the Stanford research has been something that was discovered long ago at the brain lab as just being a byproduct of a healthy brain.
As Nobel laureate Sir John Eccles said, the potential of the brain is infinite.
And if one were to say, well, we're using 5% or 10% of our brain, it's too generous an estimate.
Because any percentage of infinity is an infinitely small percentage.
We were talking a little bit before about, well, how do we get such a big charge out of what normally seems to be an insignificant charge in people?
One analogy that I like to draw is the way that the mind and brain is used.
Let's say we have this current in our brain, and the current is capable of doing work for us, whether it be intellectual work or whether it be physical work.
And you might envision a sprinkler head that you water your lawn with.
And you kind of make it loose, and it covers a very wide area.
Now, most of the time, most of us, this is how we're using our mind-brain energy.
We have one little sprinkler head hole and it's going over here, and that's the brain energy that we use to wash our car.
And then we've got another little hole that's pointing over here to Monday Night Football.
And then we've got another little hole that's pointed over to doing our video computer game.
And so our brain force, mind, energy, is scattered in a hundred, a thousand different directions all at once.
And we flip from activity to activity.
And what we get is we get sort of a gentle force that's accomplishing all the things that we accomplish in our life.
But let's say we were to slowly eliminate those holes one by one or tape up or plug up the holes.
What happens to that gentle force?
It's kind of like when you turn the nozzle on that hose, you know, turn the end of the nose thing and you bring the spray, the gentle spray, so it's focusing on a more narrow and narrow and narrower beam.
And suddenly what was a gentle spray that was covering the whole lawn has now become a very powerful single beam of water energy that will reach across the street or that we can wash the windows 30 feet away from or we can move rocks out of the garden with this very powerful force.
What we've done is we've taken all these multitude of forces and we've narrowed it down to a single beam in the same way that a transformer steps up a current by eliminating the scatter and focusing on one thing.
We get a much more powerful force.
And this is what the process of focusing the mind, either through a meditation or an abstract imagery exercise, does.
You remove all of these scattered thoughts and you bring it to one thought.
And this is a focus.
And by focusing, you get power.
Okay?
Now, if you watch the video, I believe Dynamo Jack says, 18 years of meditation, focusing the mind.
And if you focus, that's where the power comes from.
You know, feng shui as it applies, for example, to a building.
My wife has told me that the area between our house and our garage that we built, which is a large hole, we have built large holes between buildings, and she says, good feng shui.
Feng shui is a, for those who are not familiar with it, it's an ancient art which deals with the placement of physical objects in the home and in the environment so that they help bring better life force energy into your environment.
Do you ever walk into your house when things were just thrown all over the place?
And things were scattered, and you didn't know where anything was, and you have got clothes that are thrown on the floor.
like when you come back from a trip yeah chaos or you open up your refrigerator and there's just there's stuff that's been growing and it's ready to move inside your Is that what your fridge looks like?
And what is undeniable is that when you walk into a place that is clear and organized, it affects not only your mental state of being, but your physical state of being as well.
with a tear in every room all I want's to love you promise beneath the haloed moon but you think I should be happy with your money and your name and hide myself in sorrow while you play your cheating game
silver threads and golden needles can I pin this heart of mine and I dare not drown my sorrow in the warm water wise but you think I should be happy with your money and your name and hide myself in sorrow while
you play your cheating game silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine if
I dare not drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your wine Now, we take it back to the past.
Well, there's four known ways that historically people have been able to do this.
One is the near-death experience, which is one good way to experience this cosmic connection or the cosmic memory or the, what do they call it, the Koshic records, to view them.
The drawback being that it may not be healthy for you.
You may or may not come back from the near-death experience.
The second way to achieve this cosmic consciousness is you can take a psychedelic drug.
For example, you could take 500 milligrams of LSD or mushrooms.
The drawback of this being is you could get arrested or you might have a bummer trip.
You might see God, but you also might see Satan with this particular method.
The third method is the traditional classical meditation and fasting method.
And this seems to work for people.
But again, even as Dynamo Jack attested, he had done it for 18 years.
People sometimes meditate for 20 years before they have one of these cosmic consciousness experiences.
Well, most of the people like Dynamo Jack and the people, the new agey people that you talk to, when you talk about these powers and these abilities, they say, The greater cosmos will only allow these things to be used for good.
you can't use these things for evil well you know that's a bunch of Oh, absolutely.
I think the tendency is for people who do have these kind of powers, though, is to use them for good.
I think they recognize the law of karma and that kind of thing.
So I think the greatest tendency is that way.
But anyway, back to this all-knowing information bank that's beyond the self.
The fourth way is to focus on your frontal lobes and click the amygdala.
And at the brain lab, people would report, and we'd talk about them having this peak experience from two weeks to three years once they start doing the amygdala clicking and other brain exercises.
And the reason I thought of that was because I'd gotten an email from a 16-year-old and back to memory.
And he wrote to me and he said, Hi, Neil, I'm 16, one of your younger brain explorers, I guess.
Anyway, on Wednesday, I had an interesting experience with the amygdala clicking.
It was first period, and I had a Spanish test I had failed to practice for.
The teacher gave us 20 minutes to study for it.
I decided to take a chance.
So for the full 20 minutes, I did the amygdala clicking exercise off and on until the teacher said, clear everything from your desk.
As soon as I started taking the test, I suddenly remembered everything and my mind was completely clear and I aced the test.
Thought I'd share my experience with you.
And then he has a Spanish sentence here that I can't understand because I don't understand Spanish.
So here was an instance of a kid who clicked into the bigger universal cosmic memory by clicking the amygdala forward and connecting directly to that big source of information in the sky.
And he aced his test.
So that's another way.
It's a quicky way.
You know, you can meditate for 20 years or maybe get a little boost by clicking forward.
Why don't we perform an exorcism on the whole world and cast Satan back into heaven where he came from and let him and God battle it out their disagreement without humans being caught in the middle and at risk of losing their soul every day?
So it might be possible for great experiment number nine or ten or whatever to get millions of people to inject, I wonder if you've ever thought of this, inject a new concept or idea into the greater consciousness.
I've noticed that with millions of minds working, you can achieve big things.
I think we proved that with the experiments I did run.
But I've been considering ever Since then, what other things you might try, and one of them might be to inject a whole new idea or concept into the group consciousness, sort of just slam it in there with millions of people thinking about the same thing at the same time and change the course of humanity.
I mean, suppose, for example, just as an example, that we were to have millions of people concentrating on modifying the environment in some significant, very important way for humanity.
Well, let's say that you're, let's, just for grins, say that you're trying to cause a realization among all peoples that the environment is in trouble and that people have to take individual and collective Action and get off their butts and do something about the environmental difficulties we have.
I'm just, this is all pure conjecture.
And it's something I've been thinking about as a possible experiment.
If you have a fairly, if it's a previous experiments we have done where the results were immediately obvious, bringing rain where there was none, that sort of thing.
Immediately obvious.
But something I thought a little trickier, a little perhaps more useful down the line for all of us.
I don't know if that kind of thing could be done, but if it could, millions of minds might be able to do it.
Just a thought.
All right.
Wildcard line, you're on the air with Neil Slade.
Hello.
unidentified
Well, good morning.
Neil, you were mentioning the solar plexus in the last hour.
I just caught the end of it there.
I was wondering, every once in a while, actually quite frequently, it just started maybe a year and a half ago, I get this pressure right exactly in the solar plex region.
It feels almost exactly like someone is just taking their finger and pushing it back.
And I don't think it's indigestion, and I have no idea.
I'm not familiar with these subjects.
Does that mean anything?
You were saying something about it connects, or the energy levels or something connects there.
I can't say that anyone's asked me about that specific thing before.
And just tonight we started tossing around this idea of this enteric brain and the second brain.
So it would be hard for me to make a sort of personal diagnosis and any kind of general statement.
unidentified
Okay, and on the clicking the amygdala, I guess is how you say.
You were with Ian and you did the same, you explained it the same way to him, but I think at the end of it, are you supposed to push the energy out forward through your forehead?
I have a diagram in the frontal lobe supercharge book as well.
What you want to do is project the energy that's moving into the frontal lobes out, back out to universe, completing the circuit.
If you don't complete the circuit, you sort of become like a plugged up toilet, as it were.
And all life energy is, you know, when the environment is healthy, you have a circulation of energy.
And when the amygdala is clicked backwards, you're thinking me, me, me.
You're thinking ego.
You're thinking, what's good for me?
What's going to help me?
Okay?
What's going to make me feel good?
Well, you have to grow beyond that.
You're just an infant if you're just sucking in energy.
The mature frontal lobes adults projects energy.
I like to think of the human system like a tube, for example.
Energy comes in the tube and then it leaves the tube.
And the circulation is what makes the human energy system vibrant because it's moving.
If you plug up one end of the tube and the energy doesn't leave the tube, it becomes stagnant.
And it becomes a non-moving thing.
And the circulation ends and that's the end of it.
So you've got to project the energy out of the system.
So circulation goes in a circular pattern.
It goes from universe into you and then back out to universe again.
And it's very easily to visualize this as a beam of light leaving the frontal lobes or any kind of projection that is going from you back out to universe.
However, it's not that wild because if you can really generate the kinds of voltages and current that set that newspaper in that video on the website on fire, then I don't know, that's not so wild, in my opinion.
But who am I?
And you've got to see that video, and I want to say that one more time for those who have joined the program late.
If you want to see something that I guess you've either got to believe that everything we're talking about tonight is real after you see the video, or you've got to believe it's some kind of hoax or magic, or it's one of the two.
Either everything is real or it's a trick.
Some kind of horrible trick.
And it's been investigated and it doesn't seem to be a trick.
So that leads you back to the former.
Easter the Rockies, you're on the air with Neil Slade.
Ever since I have been, I don't have any help for the lady who was asking about the wicking, but I do have a question.
Ever since I was a child, I've had an ability to, I can't fully explain what I'm doing, and I'm not sure what I'm doing, but I've had this ability to, and I still have it, to turn on and off some sort of energy is all I can describe it as.
Like at any point in time, like right now or when I'm talking or when I'm walking, I can do this and I just turn it on and basically it feels sort of like there's an energy flowing all through my body is the best way I can describe it.
And I'm wondering where does this lead to eventually?
I'm not sure if this is relevant to tonight's discussion or what steps can I take next to further this.
Well, it sounds like you're feeling some life force energy moving through the body.
The next step is what do you do with it?
And again, this goes back to the couple callers ago who asked about projecting the energy.
And so it sounds to me as though you want to direct, focus this energy that you're feeling to accomplish those things that you want to accomplish, whether it be contributing to society or helping other people or whatever it is.
If you don't direct the energy and get it flowing out of you, again, it's just like it's putting a stopper on the bottle.
Ever since I was young, seven, eight in grade school, I've got a pressure point in my forehead that I can lean up against a pencil or something, and it makes that area tingle, and I feel like I see myself outside of my body flying like a bird.
You know, maybe you've got an extra suture there or something, but it sounds like you're responding to, you know, to physical pressure and causing this frontal lobes reaction by actually physically manipulating that part of the brain.
Most of us have to do the inside out.
unidentified
Okay.
Throughout the years, I've been able to touch that same spot and get the same reaction.
Yeah, well, you know, researcher T.D. Lingo maintained for years that the paranormal experiences, including this out-of-body thing, were occurring in the frontal lobes portion of the brain, specific to that area.
And it sounds like you're giving some pretty good supportive evidence that physical stimulation of that area is producing exactly those results.
You're an experienced Amydala clicker, it sounds like.
unidentified
Yes, I was pretty dedicated there for, I'm sure, well, a couple years now, I guess.
At any rate, I was trucking, and after a long evening of trucking, I had parked at my last stop and had bent over to pick up something that had fallen out of my driving bag.
And I was kind of rummaging around down there, and when I leaned up, I felt really lightheaded, like you'd stood up too fast.
And, gosh, I got this just intense amygdala click, and something pushed me back into the truck seat.
I kind of sat there at attention, and I was seeing this image.
And it opened up and was filled with some really intense lights.
And I looked around and tried to gather information about what I was seeing.
And after a while, I came back through a barrier of sound and was just sitting in the truck again.
What is common is that this type of peak experience, and it was a pleasurable, intense, sounds like, you know, just very unusual transcendence type of experience for you.
Is that correct?
unidentified
Yes, yes, much so.
And I would say the idea of being kind of held there and something wanting me to look at this, that I kind of, you know, I always wondered what those little girls in Fatima, Portugal were experiencing and that there was some other force that was working on them.
So yeah, I think it had a real spiritual content for me also.
Well, the commonality is this, and I mentioned this earlier in the program, that the effects are cumulative and they happen after you've been doing it.
You sort of like build up an energy reserve and at a certain point you have this, you burst through.
We call this the frontal lobes transcendence or big bang or pre-popper experience.
What's common is it's a cumulative, it happens after you practice the clicking for a long time, but also that it happens when you least expect it.
It's not something that you plan.
In a way, it happens when you're not planning it.
And you never know when it's going to happen.
And when I tell people, they can expect something like this between two weeks and three years of doing the clicking exercise.
And it's a life-changing experience.
One analogy I say is that it's like going, you feel like the energy of a diesel train is moving through your brain and body at 100 miles an hour, but pleasurably so.
Or it's like when Christopher Columbus or Magellan or someone, they're on the ocean for what seems like an eternity and they're waiting to fall off the ocean any minute.
And all of a sudden, somebody yells, Land ho!
It's that kind of experience.
And it's what happens when you practice brain self-control.
And it's more predictable than 20 years of meditation.
And it's more of a direct route to this cosmic experience that I was referring to earlier.
And you're one guy who is showing that I'm not full of baloney.

Well, great.
Thank you so much for your sharing.
I appreciate it.
And Art, thank you for keeping the open flow of information coming to the folks.
In my younger days, I was pretty rebellious, and I noticed that I had a knack of, as you guys would say, I guess, thinking out of my stomach.
And my first experience was with my teacher, and as a result, the principal also, but I got so mad at them for what they were doing that I, and I'm not an angry person, I'm not violent.
What I did was I was like, oh, gosh, I wish there was something I could do, and I made myself upset in my stomach.
And I noticed that he had a bowel movement in his pants.
Of course, then the principal started getting onto me.
I thought I was saved.
And when I got into the principal's office explaining my situation, he didn't side with me.
And I made this happen to him.
And of course, later on, it didn't happen three or four years down the line.
I got caught with narcotics in court.
And I have a public defender and their side lawyer.
And I told them the day before that if they didn't go my way, that I was going to make them spew in their pants.
And I did.
It's all documented now.
And I've noticed that I have this knack of doing that.
I just want to let this go.
I make myself stick, and I actually do it to myself, too.
That's the thing.
I can only mind control myself and make the effect transfer.
I know a gentleman like that, and I met him at the bookstore, and he is a scientist, in fact, and he has friends who are electrical engineers, and one of his friends absolutely forbids him to walk into his laboratory workplace, because when he does, all the equipment starts going haywire.
And this is a scientist who has this problem.
So I've heard of this before.
unidentified
Yep.
So have I. Have you heard of the song Cloudbusting by Kate Bush?
I wonder if people who we call natural psychics or natural experiencers of the paranormal, and I've known quite a few of them through the years doing this program, believe me, some of them, Neil, don't like what happens to them.
They don't like being part of the paranormal, having these kinds of experiences or knowing things they really shouldn't know otherwise.
They don't like it.
And I wonder if, for these people, learning your technique in reverse would help them stop what they don't want.
And I had that exact question from a woman, and she had four different cancers over a period of four years, and she healed herself of all of those.
But one of the problems was when she got sick, she started having these telepathy and the paranormal things, and it was happening all the time.
And she asked, how can I turn those off?
And I haven't come up with an answer for her yet.
I would suspect, however, that if there is an answer, it is in the brain.
And there's probably some kind of meditation that she could do or focusing on which part of her brain is producing these unpleasant side effects of this.
And probably some good meditation would give her or another person like this an answer to that.
Just focusing on where this information is coming.
And I really believe you can control the internal dialogue and processes of the brain consciously.
So if there is just as though one can turn off the anxiety and the negative emotions, it would seem logical to me that one could also control the advanced annoying powers of the brain as well.
You know, it's funny that you just talked about that because I was going to ask about how to kind of stop, you know, if you don't want it, it's, or you never even tried to have this stuff, you know, with your brain and everything.
It comes as a surprise and it's something you're not used to.
Okay, so I was wondering too if, Neal, if that clicking and turning it off, if that would help with any abilities a person has that have to do with the brain.
There's a part of the brain called the thalamus, and it's like a valve in the brain.
Now, normally, your senses are bringing in all kinds of information, all kinds of sensory information into your brain.
And you have to filter out a certain amount of that, or you're so distracted you can't get anything done.
One of the chemicals that helps to filter out this vast amount of information is serotonin, which is one of the neurotransmitters.
If you don't have enough serotonin or dopamine is another one, in your brain, it's kind of like taking, again, a psychedelic drug and you're overwhelmed with sensory information and it becomes unpleasant.
It's like getting, the colors are too bright and you're hearing voices and this is a problem that schizophrenics have.
They're hearing voices and they're unable to focus and accomplish what they want to do.
So probably one might be able to focus on changing the release of those neurotransmitters in the brain so that you're able to filter out the information as it would normally be filtered out.
You know, we know from the voluntary control studies at Menninger that one can actually affect the autonomic nervous system.
You can consciously change blood flow.
You can consciously change body temperature, heart rate.
And it would follow that you could probably change chemical makeup in the brain to a certain extent as well.
This is why people take drugs like Prozac, because they're trying to change the amount of chemical flow within the brain.
And it would seem as though you could consciously, with practice, alter that chemistry, neurochemistry makeup in the brain as well, and then quiet things down so you're not getting sensory information overload.
And now you know more about you than you did before if you were listening.
Listen, for the press in Washington, D.C., remember, tomorrow morning, Dr. Stephen Greer.
National Press Club, 9 o'clock in the morning.
That's this morning, actually, at 9 o'clock.
Dr. Stephen Greer, with some pretty impressive people.
Worth highest person at one point in the FAA?
Pilots?
Scientists?
All saying some pretty incredible things.
And what I would say to news editors across the country, but particularly in Washington, D.C. is, you've got one televised story waiting for you at the press club?
