Hi Deferred and the great Americans of what's happening or good evening, good morning, good afternoon, whatever you may be in the world's time zones, each and every one of them covered like a blanket by this program, Ghost Coast AM.
I'm Heartbell.
It's my honor and privilege to be escorting you through what's gonna be a great weekend, I guarantee.
Well, I guess that depends on your point of view, but some of the news that I've got coming directly up for you with Whitley Streeper is incredibly disturbing.
Just really disturbing.
So.
But on the other hand, that's what this program does.
We disturb people all the time.
So that's coming right up.
A couple of items to get out of the way.
There's a picture on my webcam.
Arts webcam.
You can go to postcodem.com, it's upper left-hand corner arts webcam, of the desert.
We have had an incredible, just an incredible bloom this year in the desert because of all the water that we've been receiving, very unusual weather patterns this whole winter.
And we've had a lot of water.
And what you see is the result sent by a listener whose name I didn't grab.
Thank you very much.
It is a picture, though, of the high desert in bloom.
And I'm sure you've heard about it.
People take treks to Death Valley to see this kind of thing.
It's like an artist just took all his paints and threw it on a few mountains.
And there you go.
That's the result.
So that's on the webcam.
Now, last night on the Jay Leno show, somebody I know very well, Chip Margelli of Yesu, who makes, well, they make all kinds of radio products, you know, marine, amateur, all kinds of radio services, police, you know, that kind of thing.
He is a longtime ham radio operator, and Jay Leno had Chip and a partner, and then two young college kids on, and it was a contest to see who could send a sentence faster.
New technology, brand new, text messaging, the love child of everybody below about 30 years of age, or the 100-plus-year-old continuous wave, CW.
And I must say, Chip Margelli and his partner cleaned the clocks of the text messengers.
As a matter of fact, if you happen to see it, the guys who were sending the text messaging kind of had a blank, what just happened to us, kind of expression on their faces.
It was awesome.
So congratulations, Chip Marjelli.
This is going to be a weekend of breaking news in more ways than one.
And I've received a video tonight that, and I got it, as usual, this kind of thing usually comes in two or three hours before showtime.
And tonight is no exception.
tomorrow night I'm going to have a young fellow on who has captured unambiguously a new set of Phoenix lights.
As dramatic as...
He has not sent it, according to his email, to anybody else but myself.
And tomorrow night we're going to...
It's pretty good, as it is right now, they might cut it down, but it's about an 8-meg file of what this young man caught on video.
Tomorrow night, we'll have him on the air as well as his video, assuming all works out well and they managed to get it up on the website.
All right, in a moment, I'm going to read you a story, which in this case comes from the Sunday Times, Britain, but I could just as easily be reading it from Whitley Streeber's Unknown Country, where I found it first, or the Sunday Times of Ireland, or all kinds of European newspapers about something that's going on in the world right now that will affect every single one of us and soon.
So stand by for that.
Coming right up.
As you know, Whitley Strieber and myself are authors of The Coming Global Superstorm, which became the movie the day after tomorrow.
And when you write a book like that, that's part science and part fiction, that severely impacts the world, the last thing that you want to see happen is for it to come true.
Let me read you now from the Sunday Times in Britain, May 8th, 2005.
Headline, Britain faces big chill as ocean current slows.
Climate change researchers have detected the first signs of a slowdown in the Gulf Stream, the mighty ocean current that keeps Britain and Europe from freezing.
They found that one of the engines driving the Gulf Stream, that would be the sinking of supercooled water in the Greenland Sea, has weakened to less than a quarter of its former strength.
Now let me read that paragraph again.
It's so damn important.
They found that one of the engines driving the Gulf Stream, the sinking of supercooled water in the Greenland Sea, has weakened to less than a quarter of its former strength.
The weakening, apparently caused by global warming, could herald big changes in the current over the next few years or even decades.
Paradoxically, it could lead to Britain and Northwestern And Europe undergoing a sharp drop in temperatures.
Such a change has long been predicted by scientists, but the new research is among the first to show experimental evidence of the phenomenon.
Peter Wethams, professor of ocean physics at Cambridge University, hitched rides under the Arctic ice cap in Royal Navy submarines, and he used ships to take measurements across the Greenland Sea.
Until recently, he said we'd find giant chimneys in the sea where columns of cold, dense water were sinking from the surface to the seabed 3,000 meters below.
But now they have almost disappeared.
As the water sank, it was replaced by warm water flowing in from the south, which kept the circulation going.
If that mechanism is slowing, it would mean less heat reaching Europe.
Such a change could have a severe impact on Britain, which lies on the same latitude as Siberia and ought to be much colder.
The Gulf Stream transports 27,000 times more heat to Britain shores than all the nations' power supplies could ever provide, warming Britain by 5 to 8 degrees centigrade.
Wittems and his colleagues believe, however, that such changes could be well underway.
They predict that the slowing of the Gulf Stream is likely to be accompanied by other effects such as the complete summer melting of the Arctic ice cap as early as 2020 and almost certainly by 2080.
This would spell disaster for Arctic wildlife like the polar bear, which could face virtual extinction.
Wenham's submarine journeys took him under the North Pole ice cap using sonar to survey the ice from underneath.
He has measured how the ice has become 46% thinner over the last 20 years.
The results from these surveys prompted him to focus on a feature called the Aden Ice Shelf, which should grow out into the Greenland Sea every winter and recede in summer.
The growth of this shelf should trigger the annual formation of the sinking water columns.
As seawater freezes to form the shelf, the ice crystals expel their salt into the surrounding water, making it heavier than the water below.
It appeared in full in 1997.
In the past, we could see nine to twelve giant columns forming under the shelf each and every year.
In our latest cruise, we found only two, and they were so weak that the sinking water could not reach the seabed, said Weddams, who disclosed the findings at a meeting of the European Geosciences Union in Vienna.
The exact effects of such changes is hard to predict because currents and weather systems take years to respond, and because there are two other areas around the North Atlantic where water sinks, helping to maintain circulation, less is known about how climate change is affecting those.
However, Wedhams suggests the effect could be quite dramatic.
Quote, one of the frightening things in the film, The Day After Tomorrow, showed how the circulation in the Atlantic Ocean is upset because the sinking of cold water in the North Atlantic suddenly stops, said he.
The sinking is stopping.
Debate much slower than in the film.
Over years rather than days, should it continue, though, the effect will be to cool the climate of northern Europe.
One possibility is that Europe will freeze.
Another is that the slowing of the Gulf Stream may keep Europe cool as global warming heats the rest of the world, but with more extremes of weather.
And here is my co-author, Whitley Strieber.
Whitley, welcome to the program.
whitley strieber
Well, thank you, Art.
unidentified
And I almost don't know where to begin.
whitley strieber
There's an interview with him on this week's Dreamland, this scientist, Lynn Walton Howe's report this week, and there's a brief special at the five minutes at the beginning of the show.
And to listen to that, you go to unknowncountry.com and click on the word Dreamland on the right side of the masthead.
That said, I will go on from our story.
However, there is ample evidence that sudden and extreme changes have taken place worldwide in the past.
Unknown country reported on this phenomenon in December of 2004 and earlier in November of 2003.
There is a mechanism that changes a process of climate change that seems to be unfolding over a period of years into a violent event that just takes hours or days to develop.
It happened 5,200 years ago, as is amply revealed in the fossil record since we wrote our book.
Professor Lonnie Thompson of the, I believe it's called the Byrd Arctic Institute, determined that glaciers in Peru had at their bases plants that had been frozen as quickly as we freeze vegetables to make them into frozen food.
And they had stayed like that for 5,200 years.
Let's see the ice man who was found with such a dramatic find in the Alps a few years ago, was going through an alpine meadow at the same time that this was happening in Peru.
And he was overcome by an ice storm, and he was not released from that ice for 5,200 years.
art bell
So that means that whatever this is, contrary to popular belief, may come on just like that.
I mean, fast enough to freeze meat and keep it fresh and then keep it that way for 5,200 years.
whitley strieber
Back when the New York Times was still reporting this, they don't report this much anymore.
art bell
That's the other aspect of this.
I mean, here I've got it from the Sunday Times in Britain.
I've got it from your website, by the way, first.
Congratulations.
And then the Sunday Times, Ireland, all of them mentioning the movie the day after tomorrow.
We don't need the plugs anymore, folks.
The movie and the book, they're already, you know, they've happened.
They're happening now on pay TV, I think.
Anyway, the bottom line is: you don't expect when you write something like this for it to be coming true in the next few years after you write it.
How are you diagnosing?
I mean, this must have hit you like a brick.
I know it did me.
whitley strieber
It hit me between the eyes, Archer.
Between the eyes.
Because when we wrote this book, you know, we were thinking about 25 years in the future.
art bell
Right.
whitley strieber
It's six years later.
art bell
Yeah, six years.
And here it is.
whitley strieber
This thing that's happening there, frankly, the things they aren't saying about it, they aren't saying that three years ago it was working fine.
Three years ago.
Now it's practically gone.
art bell
Now, here's something maybe you'd care to try and comment on.
But, you know, Europe freezing is horrible enough, but that's there, and this is here.
We do have European listeners.
Sorry.
But the question, Whitley, is, should the full force of this manifest itself, what about here?
What about us?
What about the U.S.?
What might we expect?
whitley strieber
Well, the disruptions that will occur here is what actually physically happens in the ocean is as the Gulf Stream gets weaker, it gets, in effect, shorter.
It begins to go farther, not to go as far north as it did, and it goes out to sea.
The critical thing is, as it goes out to sea and moves away from the land, we have things such as a bizarre phenomenon that happened a couple of summers ago along the whole northeast.
We may have even talked about it on the air, where people were going swimming and finding the water was terribly cold, like 47, very cold.
art bell
Listen, I glommed onto that very quickly.
We had a lot about that on the air.
I mean, people who were used to surfing and swimming every day would go down to the ocean and they'd go, holy smokes or something.
And when they put their foot in the water, the water was just freezing, and nobody could understand why.
whitley strieber
But I knew why.
And now it's confirmed that this weakening was already taking place.
Now, when that cold water comes down the eastern Atlantic, especially if it comes down in the summer, it results in very violent weather.
But more than that, it causes a reactive effect.
And I really must tell you, there's no way to tell, no way to know exactly what it does to the United States.
We know it makes the eastern United States and Canada, eastern Canada, much colder, just like Europe.
art bell
Well, if Europe would freeze, Whitley, that would be such a dramatic shift in what's going on globally that I don't see how it could not affect the rest of the world one way or the other.
whitley strieber
Well, I'll tell you how it affects.
The first way it affects the rest of the world is this.
Europe is a net food exporter.
That little corner of the world is one of the most, I think is, in fact, the most efficient food producing area on the planet.
And despite its dense population, and you go into Europe and you think you're just going from city to city, the truth of the matter is those little farms you see as you go down the road or ride the train are the most productive farms in the world.
That will change.
Europe will become a net food importer.
So ironically, the first people to suffer from Europe getting colder are going to be like the North Africans and the Africans, who benefit now greatly from European food exports, and that won't be there anymore.
art bell
I would think that the growing areas would quickly move south, wouldn't they?
whitley strieber
No, they won't, because of the fact that accompanying this in the hotter areas of regions is going to be a drying effect.
So Europe is going to be wet and cold, but by the time you get down to South Central Africa, it's going to be the sub-Saharan desert, the Sahel, is going to be almost heading toward the equator.
art bell
So there's no wonderful new growing areas.
No.
whitley strieber
Absolute fiction.
What you will have is more deserts.
In this country, the Midwest, stands a really excellent chance of ending up a Dust Bowl, an absolute Dustball, which is I was, as long ago as I wrote Nature's End, I can't even think, I mean, like 1986, that was obvious that that would happen.
And it is still, it's just closer now.
But, you know, before we go on, this is such dark news.
art bell
It is dark news, Whitley.
whitley strieber
There is a little good news out there on this front, too.
art bell
Let's hear it.
whitley strieber
Okay, probably the best piece of news out there right now is a discovery about ethanol.
We reported this on unknown country just about a week ago, I think.
And it was that a scientist has discovered that ethanol, which is expensive now, can actually be made.
He's discovered a process that will be able to make large amounts of ethanol from basically any kind of scrap vegetation that we happen to have.
And this is a huge breakthrough because they're going to be able to reduce the amount of oil that we use in the United States and at the same time make our existing infrastructure of cars and trucks much cleaner burning because they're going to be able to use this.
And this will come on stream over the next five years, big time.
art bell
It and many other advances like it need to and quickly because we're going to face very soon now a period of time where all the cheap oil, the easy-to-get oil, has Already been obtained, refined, and used.
whitley strieber
And there are people who keep saying out there, oh, well, actually, oil is produced in another way, and it's actually a renewable resource.
art bell
But it is not like that.
I think my guest last week, who wrote for Rolling Stone, said these people believe the earth has a creamy nugget center, which simply keeps squirting oil up into the used fields.
whitley strieber
They do believe that, yeah.
art bell
Well, there are still people who also believe the earth is flat.
whitley strieber
Right, exactly.
The sad truth is that that just isn't the case.
It does not work like that.
art bell
Right.
So we're going to need this and a lot more.
And even if we do get it, there's going to be a period of time, which this author calls the long emergency, in which we're going to have hard times.
I mean, we really do depend on oil, of course, for everything we do.
And if the weather's going to get cold and nasty, we're going to need even more fuel, right?
whitley strieber
Well, that's the thing.
The other aspect of this that is troubling, really troubling, is the possibility that if this difference, differential between a cold north and a very hot rest of the planet, presumably also a cold south and a hot center, continues, we're going to see hurricanes.
We could see like a continuous daisy chain of hurricanes in the summer within a few years.
art bell
Last year actually wasn't so hot.
Hold on.
We're here at the bottom of the hour from the high desert in the middle of the night.
I'm Art Bell.

Well, it certainly does sound like horses of some number thundering, doesn't it?
Whitless Striever is my guest, co-author of The Coming Global Superstorm.
By the way, he's got a new book out.
We'll tell you about that in a moment.
However, the premise of that book appears to be coming true before our eyes.
That is, if you have your eyes on nearly any British publication or European publication.
unidentified
That is, if you have any questions, please.
art bell
Now, maybe I'm wrong here, but I don't think so.
We report on fingers that get found in Chile and the mischief makers behind all that.
We report on so many things, but good God, you get a story like this.
And just so that you understand the significance of it, let me read this one paragraph again from the Sunday Times in Britain, quite prestigious.
Cambridge researchers have found that one of the engines driving the Gulf Stream, the sinking of super-cooled water in the Greenland Sea, has weakened now, right now already, to less than one quarter of its former strength.
Now, I just got a fast blast from Anthony who says, isn't it sad that it is nowhere on CNN's website?
What a commentary on our newsroom's priorities.
Whitley, as I mentioned, you know, we get fingers and chili stories and stuff like that, but here you've got something as good.
In fact, the weather of the whole world could freeze all of Europe and narrow a mention.
Hello?
What's up here?
whitley strieber
It's terrifying.
No Fox News, no CNN, the Washington Post, the Washington Times.
art bell
How can this be?
whitley strieber
No one.
No New York Times.
And just a few years ago, the New York Times led the world in reporting these environmental stories.
Now, it just has abandoned the whole area.
Is it sort of self-censorship because they think that the administration doesn't want to hear those stories?
Or is it that they think the public doesn't want to hear them?
That the public's not interested?
listen, and look at the stats on my website.
I think the public's real interested.
art bell
Really?
This is not science fiction.
This is not somebody's imagination.
This is real reporting, and it's now, and it's not.
I don't know how.
I mean, people, I guess, are getting so cynical.
They hear so many things, but this is so, so serious.
And narrow a word in our own press.
It's just impossible.
whitley strieber
It's hard to believe.
But, you know, it is probably the biggest environmental story in history.
It's, the problem is that this thing is like a, it has, it's, In other words, it's not something that is going to start up again tomorrow.
It's going to go through its whole cycle of slowing and stopping.
And then eventually, what will happen is the cold in the north will cause the water to start falling again, and it'll start, restart, under some conditions.
But really, that's an unknown because we are heating the planet up faster than it has been heated up for 65 million years.
When the dinosaurs were dying out, the Earth's atmosphere was heating up as fast as it is now.
It was getting rather filling with carbon dioxide as fast as it is now, with the difference that in those days, there was such a cloud cover because of the comet that had hit the planet that it was actually cooling down, even though it was filling with carbon dioxide and methane.
It was such a mess then that we know when we are looking at fossils of plants from the end of that era because the leaves are scarred by sulfuric acid from acid rain.
Now, that was bad.
This is not so good either, but it has been worse on this planet, and life has persisted.
The dinosaurs didn't make it, but other creatures did.
Usually, it's the little creatures that make it, the little things that are running around now that we don't even think twice about.
art bell
Yes, but that wouldn't include us.
whitley strieber
That would not include us.
No, we would go the way of the big animals.
We're too big and we're too exposed.
There was even a scientist who calculated the likelihood of extinction based on the amount of skin exposed to the atmosphere on the part of a given animal and proved that the larger the animal, the more vulnerable it was to changes.
And we are no exception to that, to climate changes.
art bell
We are no exception to that.
You're a researcher into all this sort of thing.
And so a few hours before airtime tonight, I got an email from a gentleman in Phoenix who shall remain unnamed until tomorrow night because I don't want the world to descend on him until we have a chance to break the story.
But he has sent me video footage, new video footage, of lights that have appeared above Phoenix just a few nights ago.
This was done on May 12th of 2005.
So it's fresh, brand new.
And I took the trouble to send Whitley the video that I'm going to show you all tomorrow night earlier this evening.
Whitley, what do you think?
whitley strieber
Well, it's really remarkably clear video.
art bell
Yes, yes.
whitley strieber
Points out that he's already talked to.
He's a researcher.
In other words, he does a lot of this.
He pointed out that he has already talked to Luke Air Force Base.
The lights are over the mountains west of Phoenix again, and they are telling him that there was no activity at that time at all.
And the way these lights move is unusual.
But, you know, it's actually not too surprising to me because it's part of a very large phenomenon that's going on right now that is another thing that the press has dropped.
If this was 1975, the world would know about the amazing UFO wave that is taking place right now.
But it's not.
It's 2005, and that is kind of officially non-news anymore.
But in fact, the truth is that we're getting more reports specifically of triangular UFOs.
art bell
That's right.
whitley strieber
Even one credible report that came in saying that the observer had seen writing in English on the bottom of the craft showing an emergency exit sign, suggesting that at least some of them probably are, as Colm Kelleher of the National Institute of Discovery Sciences maintained for years, secret aircraft.
art bell
They may well be.
whitley strieber
But they're all over the place.
But things like you saw are being just seen in droves right now.
art bell
Yes, I saw one of the very early ones, to be sure.
But since then, there's just been nothing but a wave of all of that triangular stuff.
In the meantime, these lights, what you're going to see tomorrow night, folks, I mean, Whitley, it is good, clear, unambiguous video.
And it's shot at some high bit rate or something or another.
whitley strieber
I don't know what the deal is.
He's used a very, very good video camera.
So you'd be able to tell a lot about these lights.
And they don't drop away like flares at all.
Oh, no.
And they move very quickly.
I was trying to think, probably be able to, you can't calculate the speed of them, unfortunately, because there's no way to tell how far they are from the camera.
But it's an excellent, it's as good a piece of video.
And thank goodness, people, video cameras are finally getting to the point where there is some UFO video coming out that's really clear.
art bell
Yes, and he claims that he sent this to me exclusively.
Nobody else has it yet.
So tomorrow night, you all are going to get it.
And I just wanted you to sort of back it up, Whitley, the fact that you've seen it, and it really is something.
It's quick, but it's really something.
whitley strieber
It is something.
It's a fine piece of video.
Very fine piece of video.
art bell
All right, listen, you've got a new book or a book you just completed, right?
whitley strieber
Just completed.
Now, folks, it is not out yet because there's a lag Time in publishing, but I will be publishing pieces of it in the subscriber section of my website over the next year, and it'll build a website for it.
It's called The Grays, and it is basically everything I think might be true about that phenomenon and the way it may or may not impact us.
Written like I wrote Majestic in the form of fiction, which is, I think, fact-related.
But I can't prove it and I can't document it.
And there's also another thing.
There's a lot of kind of intuitive stuff that I've got in me from all the years of kind of being out on this particular edge that I can't put down in a book of fact.
And I'm not apologizing for my book anyway, in any way.
But suffice to say, this is my statement about the Grays.
art bell
Whitley, what are the Grays?
What is your best guess?
What are we dealing with when we talk about the Greys?
What are they?
whitley strieber
Well, I can't answer that question except by describing various things that I have observed and that I know that they do.
The reason I can't will become obvious to a reader of the book.
The grays, for example, they move and make sounds and do things with machine-like precision.
But I have never in my life heard anything as rich emotionally as the voice of one of these greys that cried out three times across my woods early one morning in February of 1988.
unidentified
The greys come in groups of three.
whitley strieber
And they do very, very unpleasant things to us.
That's also part of it.
art bell
But so sort of one part machine, but then one part emotion, which doesn't seem to job.
No.
whitley strieber
It doesn't seem like if they were machine-like, they would have such rich emotions.
And the bottom line is this.
There's something missing with the Grays.
Something missing.
And that's essentially what the book is about.
It's about what's missing and their attempts to reclaim or to gain what they do not have.
art bell
What have you discerned about their motives, if anything?
I mean, from the actions that they take, can any conclusions be made about their motives?
whitley strieber
Well, first, there are not many of them here.
That is very, very clear.
If you study this and experience it long enough, you find you come to the conclusion that there couldn't be all that many of them around.
They're not teeming millions by any means.
It's a tiny number.
And there's even a sort of personality with different groups of them.
You can almost tell after a while, if you work on this long enough, who's doing what, because there's a certain signature.
They do things slightly differently.
I think there's a possibility that a whole lot more grays are on their way here.
It's very possible.
Where they're coming from, out of another dimension or across space, I don't know.
My guess is it would be across space and that it does not, that this business of wormholes and stuff is all fiction, that it takes a lot of time for them to come here, and that they've sent scouts out, perhaps, which moved at a very rapid rate of speed and maybe were kind of reconstituted here when they arrive,
which is why they have a combination of sort of a rich emotional affect and a machine-like quality, because they are on the shadow line between machine and biological creature.
art bell
Well, when I talk to scientists who have interviewed abductees and others who have had interaction with them yourself, an awful lot of what we might imagine their motives to be appears to be aimed toward our reproductive capabilities.
whitley strieber
Absolutely.
I think genes are a huge issue.
I suspect that this is a very old species.
I think it's a presexual species.
I think it comes from before there were species with two sexes, that it works differently.
And maybe it's a billion years old, Arn, maybe older.
And I think something has played out.
I think basically species can die of old age.
And what they're after is our youth.
art bell
That's extremely interesting.
A species can die of old age.
Absolutely.
In other words, the genetic code itself sort of ages.
whitley strieber
It plays out.
art bell
Wow.
whitley strieber
And look at what we're doing now genetically, the little bit that we've begun to do.
If we were a billion years old and you looked at the human genome, what you would see would be a mass of artificial genes, of real genes.
You would find the genetic signatures for various organ groups and organs playing out and being replaced by artificial material.
We would be a very peculiar combination of artificial life, of biological life, and of mechanism by then.
And maybe in that process, we would have lost something essential about being human.
And I have a feeling that that's what they have lost, and that's what they want from us.

Todd, it's already beginning for us, Woodley.
I've talked to scientists who have begun to connect computers to their nervous systems.
I've talked to people who are doing implants, and the plans for that sort of thing are really frightening in a way.
And so we're already moving towards sort of a, I don't know, adjoining with the mechanism.
whitley strieber
Well, there's chimras, for example.
There's a herd of sheep out in Oregon, I believe, who have got human cells in their bodies, like human brain cells in their brains.
art bell
I've heard about it.
whitley strieber
Of course.
And the truth of the matter is that anything is possible to do.
And over time, if you're not really careful about the ethics of it, and maybe they weren't, gradually you end up maybe lost in a way that we can hardly conceive of.
art bell
Well, it does not seem as though the regulatory agencies, whoever might regulate what these scientists are doing, are moving along at anywhere near the same speed the scientific advances are.
whitley strieber
Not anywhere near.
And in certain places, like China, there are no such the what regulatory work is done is all done in the direction of doing more of this.
Because they would love to, you know, we react in horror when we think of growing human bodies without heads so that the cloning human beings cloning themselves with bodies that don't develop heads so that they won't be fully human.
And then they can harvest the organs.
But Chinese are working on that in overdrive.
art bell
Yes, they have no restrictions if they need a human volunteer.
They simply volunteer somebody or plenty of somebody.
So they just plow ahead with this research.
I wonder if we're keeping up.
I fear not.
whitley strieber
Maybe if we could only take a closer look at the Grays, that would be a warning about the future.
art bell
I wonder.
You really think that the Grays might be, as you mentioned, very old and have already been through all this and made the mistakes?
whitley strieber
And made the mistakes.
I think so.
And you know, that gets me, by the way, to the remember that Roswell video that was so sensational a few years ago with those strange six-fingered-handed creatures with oddly faces that looked like they were in some sort of genetic trouble?
art bell
Of course.
whitley strieber
And everyone, after a while, it was all debunked and said it was all nonsense.
It wasn't nonsense.
The reason it wasn't nonsense, I can tell you very simply, is I had one of the best anatomists in this country examine that footage for me.
And those are real skeletons.
There's real skeletons inside those bodies.
When they move the legs around, there's no question about it.
They're not moving like something that was made.
Those are real corpses.
who knows whether they put that put artificial hands on them the hands with six fingers Well, Wedley, I've always said if the real thing came along and it hit us right in the nose, we wouldn't know it because there's such a plethora of stuff out there.
art bell
Much of it.
whitley strieber
These people in this video are in terrible genetic trouble.
They've got a genetic disease big time, but it is not one that we have identified among human beings.
And I'm sorry, people who said, oh, no, it's this disease or it's that disease.
It's not true.
It is a unique genetic disease that those creatures have as far as we're concerned.
Could they be human beings from the distant future?
Or could they be human-like creatures from another world here trying to find some kind of help for themselves genetically because they've gone some distance down the same road that the Greys are at the end of?
art bell
Listen, my friend, we've got to go.
What an hour.
I really appreciate all the breaking news sharing it with you and you sharing it with everybody, Whitley.
Thank you, my friend.
whitley strieber
For sure.
art bell
The Greys.
That's his next book.
Good night, Whitley.
whitley strieber
Good night.
art bell
All right, there you have it, folks.
Whitley Streeber.
I'm Mark Bell.
From the high desert in the middle of the night, there is an hour worth listening to a couple of times.
Because what we wrote about, what we imagined, is happening.

There is no doubt about it.
One of the coolest, way coolest new shows on television is a show called Medium, which is on NBC.
It's the story of a woman whose name is Allison Dubois.
Allison Dubois is an average housewife and not such an average woman in most every other way.
She's a real psychic, the real McCoy, and the way they tell her story on television is astoundingly good and refreshing.
And Ramona just bought me her book, The Real Story of Allison Dubois.
She's in Phoenix and helps out various police agencies, FBI, that kind of thing.
And Allison, I really would like to interview you.
So would somebody please tell Allison Dubois that it's worth staying up late?
She's a real McCoy and she needs to get on coast.
So word out, Art would like to interview Allison.
Coming up now, this is just as good a segue as one could possibly hope for from where Whitley was going in the last hour.
Dr. Bruce Lipton.
He received his Ph.D. at the University of Virginia back in 1971, served as associate professor at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine, where his research on cloned human stem cells provided a radical new understanding of the mechanisms controlling our life.
Bruce resigned his tenured position, now that's not something you do lightly, to pursue independent research integrating quantum physics with cell biology.
He returned to academia as a research scientist at Stanford University School of Medicine to test his hypothesis.
From 87 to 92, Bruce's revolutionary studies on the mechanisms of mind-body interactions unify the practices of conventional medicine, complementary medicine, and spiritual healing.
His insights have made him an internationally sought-after lecturer, and his informative, very informative new book, The Biology of Belief, Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter, and Miracles is now available in a moment in person, as I would like to have Allison Dubois comes Dr. Bruce Lipton.
it's going to be quite a night stay right there.

*Bad music*
art bell
Here from, well, actually, I don't know where he's from, is Dr. Bruce Lipton.
Doctor, where are you?
bruce lipton
California and happy.
art bell
Ah, well, welcome to the program.
Good to have you.
bruce lipton
I'm glad to be here.
We have some exciting things to talk about.
art bell
This whole area is incredibly exciting.
I don't know if you follow the program at all, but we've done some things with consciousness that, well, hey, they scared me.
I've been doing this kind of thing for years.
In your book, The Biology of Belief, Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter and Miracles, you write about how some sort of scientific epiphany precipitated instantaneous personal transformation in your life.
That must have been some very special moment.
I know that people, for example, don't just resign tenured positions at big universities unless something really radical happens.
bruce lipton
Well, I'll tell you, it was the biggest shock of my life because I was a conventional professor teaching the kind of things medical students get about how biochemistry and genes control life and teaching the concept essentially the human body is like a machine and that medicine is involved with changing the parts and making it run right and all that.
So it doesn't leave any room for spirituality and all those other kind of things which were never actually part of my life.
And I was working on the stem cells and while people think about stem cells, that's that recent thing that's just been happening.
It's like I actually started working on stem cells, cloning stem cells back in 1967.
So it's almost 40 years ago, in fact.
And the biggest surprise of my life were the lessons that those cells showed me.
And on that particular night was the understanding of actually how cells were controlled.
And what was unique about it is this was about 15 years of research that took me away from genes, the belief that genes control life, which everyone else was on that path.
And I started recognizing that genes indeed were not controlling life.
And when I found out what controlled life, I was shocked into another understanding, another reality.
And interesting, I mean, although I got the consciousness that hit me right there at that moment, it still took me a bit of time to realize that we are programmed.
And even though I was consciously aware of this new understanding that we are spiritual entities, that we're not even in the body, and this was through a molecular understanding of how the cell worked, it just floored me because I needed to learn how to put that into my life, not just the awareness of it.
So there was a little bit of a lag period.
And I think this is important because there's a tendency to think that if we just know something, then that's going to change our lives.
And this gets into the issue of the consciousness and the programming of patterns and behavior, which came out of this work.
art bell
Okay, well, it may have been an epiphany for you, but I'm still not sure that I get it.
bruce lipton
Okay, well, let me tell you how it works.
It was this concept that genes control life.
This is what's being taught in schools right now, and it's in every textbook everywhere about the concept, something referred to as genetic determinacy, which means that the genes that you get at conception are essentially blueprints for the rest of your life, and then you live your life through this.
And what the issue was when I started working on these stem cells, one of the big things that I found out right away is that the character or behavior or traits of the cells change when I put it in one culture environment or change the environment and put them in another environment.
They change their behavior, they change their expression, that they were healthy or sick, or they change into different kinds of cells.
art bell
Are you suggesting it's adaptation?
bruce lipton
Well, it's basically it is a dynamic process where life is continuously reading the environment and adjusting the biology to conform to the perception of that environment.
So it's not your genes are not your fixed fate.
Genes are potentials.
What you do with those potentials are based on how you see the environment.
And this was the big thing.
I mean, after all these years of thinking you want to change your life, well, you're going to change your genes.
And now all of a sudden it says, you want to change your life, you have to understand how you, if you just change your perception of the environment, your whole life can change.
So you can talk about, for example, a person who has terminal cancer, and they have bought into the story that this is the end and their life is waning right now.
And all of a sudden they just get this belief change.
It says, no, I'm not going to buy that.
I'm not buying that.
And they get up and they get out and they exhibit what's called a spontaneous remission.
It's like, what happened in this case is they changed something about their perception.
Belief changed.
You can see it in another case, multiple personalities.
Multiple personalities in one personality can have blue eyes and then switch to the other personality and have gray eyes in Russian.
art bell
Yes, that's documented.
bruce lipton
Yes, and what also is documented is this, is that they can have allergies in one personality and less than a minute later change personalities and those things that would have caused a severe allergic reaction just a minute before.
art bell
Okay, slow up.
I really need to understand that this is true.
You're saying that a person with multiple personalities, one of them can have blue eyes, but when they switch personalities, actually it's documented the eyes change color right there in front of your face.
bruce lipton
And now this is hard kind of stuff to believe, right?
art bell
It is, yes.
bruce lipton
And yet it's exciting because it's a pathology in the sense that they're not in control of it, but it represents an ability that we have the power of changing our expression when we change our perception of life.
art bell
Doctor, where can a person do some reading, Bruce?
Where can a person do some reading to verify that, for example?
bruce lipton
Okay, there's an organization of dissociation.
It was a dissociation.
I'll get it and then we can post it on the line.
Okay, there's an organization for dissociation studies, dissociation being people separating from their personality and acquiring other personalities.
There's a big organization that studies this, and there's data to all this effect.
Even, you know, the story, The Three Faces of Eve, I think that movie that came out?
Do you remember something like that?
art bell
Oh, yes.
bruce lipton
Well, I met that woman, and she's actually one of the first ones.
She had a severe allergy to strawberries.
It caused her to get hives in one of her personalities.
And when she changed personality, that allergy didn't affect her.
art bell
That I believe.
Let's go back for a second to spontaneous remissions.
Now, I know that's true.
That happens.
I don't know how frequently.
I think it's fairly rare.
bruce lipton
But it happens to which people express it.
This is important.
What is uniform about those that express it?
art bell
What is?
I assume that you looked at studies of spontaneous remissions.
How many have there been?
bruce lipton
Oh, the numbers in thousands, but in the sense that the problem is that when you try to document it, then there's a take back where they say, well, the original diagnosis wasn't necessarily correct all of a sudden.
And this is the issue because it doesn't conform to an understanding that medicine likes to play with, except they're very aware of it.
It's called the placebo effect.
And what it really represents is, what is the placebo effect?
It's an ability to heal yourself based on the belief that whatever you're doing at that moment is something that will effectively heal you.
art bell
Yes, as long as you believe it will work.
bruce lipton
Yes, and people should know this as well.
There's an equal and opposite effect called the nocebo effect.
And that's the one that says if you are told that you can't do something about it or that it's too late.
art bell
I'm sorry, son, you have a brain tumor.
You have six months.
It's irreversible.
At that point, it's inoperable.
bruce lipton
That belief system itself will promote that situation.
And it's a very important understanding because it says, look, placebo, nocebo, it's the same concept.
It's basically, it says what you believe and your perceptions will change the biology that you're expressing.
And this is actually a new understanding.
It's not that new.
In fact, science has actually been publishing information about how this mechanism occurs since 1990.
And it's a new understanding in a sense that it's not in the textbook.
It's been in the leading edge research for at least the last 15 years.
And it's a concept called epigenetic control.
And what does that mean?
Well, genetic control is what we were talking about before.
Genes control life.
art bell
But doesn't this leave a doctor who buys into what you're saying right now in a terrible position?
Because if he tells a patient he's got an inoperable fatal tumor, then he has just dispensed the piece of information that's going to kill that person.
bruce lipton
At exactly the same time.
It's not a helpful situation.
And it's been an issue because when you talk to doctors, their programming is not to give false hope.
And so the significance about this is it's an important program because if you don't give false hope, meaning it's hope that you don't have anything you can, you know, there's no evidence for.
So I'm going to tell you, something could happen here, but I don't have any evidence.
They call that false hope.
So the significance is you take away from their arsenal of healing abilities, you take away the ability of suggestion that they could influence a person because the idea was they don't want to be held liable for anything.
And as a result, it's like, okay, this is what you have.
And it's an unfortunate issue of legal issues and medical issues intermixing right there.
It's very difficult because a doctor is really obliged not to offer something that he can't scientifically attest to.
art bell
But if, in fact, the human mind is capable of reversing the otherwise scientifically thought to be irreversible, then there's an obligation on the part of the healer who's taken an oath to do the very best he can to include this.
This is going to be very hard, though, to get into traditional scientific literature.
It's just and medical literature.
bruce lipton
It's actually, they're trying to wean it out of the literature right now.
The drug companies are trying to remove studies of placebos.
And the reason is because it contaminates their studies.
Many of their drugs are no better than placebos.
Prozac is scientifically not really of any value above a sugar pill.
And that is a scientific fact that the federal government, actually this psychologist, Erwin Kirsch at the University of Connecticut, he had to actually sue the government's Freedom of Information Act to get the test results on these drugs.
And it found out that he's reporting a number of papers on it, that the fact is that Prozac and Zolof, those kind of drugs, are no better than a placebo.
And it's very hard because you can get those people who take this drug that will swear on their lives that this is what did it.
art bell
Oh, yes.
bruce lipton
And yet, of course, and it's like, oh, well, I'm happy that that happened.
There are a lot of people that could have sworn before that leotryl cured their cancer.
And it did, but it wasn't really true of the leotryl.
It was that they took it with the belief that this was the most fantastic cancer cure ever.
And they started to do this.
So the issue is, I mean, how can you do this?
And what we're talking about seems like magic.
It's like, if I change my belief or perception of what I see, I change my biology.
And the answer is through the new understanding called epigenetic control.
And the word epi is key here because that prefix epi means above.
So the word, and this is a new area of study.
art bell
Above genetic control.
bruce lipton
That's exactly what it says.
And what it represents is this.
We used to think that genes were these autonomous units.
You walk down the street and all of a sudden a gene will say, well, it's time for cancer or something.
A gene gave you cancer and we gave all this credit and power to genes.
And here's a simple truth.
A gene is a blueprint.
It is exactly that.
What it means is this.
The body is made out of proteins.
These are very complex molecules.
That the complexity needs a blueprint to make them.
The gene is a linear string, which is a blueprint, to make these proteins.
And why that's important is this.
Go to an architect's office, and he's working on a blueprint on his desk.
Stand behind him and ask him, is that blueprint on or off?
And he'll look at you.
What do you mean it's on or off?
Well, you talk about a gene being on or off.
And the reality is, boy, have we made a big mistake.
The fact is, as the contractor would tell you, the blueprint's not on or off.
It's whether I read the blueprint or I don't read the blueprint that makes all the difference.
And that's what medicine is now beginning to realize, is that the genes don't turn on and off.
It's whether the cell reads the genes or the cell doesn't read the gene.
And all of a sudden, then you have to back up and say, yeah, but then who's in charge of what the cell reads?
unidentified
Right.
art bell
And the answer to that?
bruce lipton
The skin or membrane of the cell, which is in a sense, in human embryology, our brain and our nervous system is derived from the skin as well.
And the skin, you say, well, the skin is the brain.
And the answer is, of course, if you think about it, it's the interface between the organism and the environment.
So one side of the skin is reading the outside world, the other side of the skin is reading the inside world.
And by processing that information, the skin can adjust the biology to meet the needs of the environment.
art bell
I thought the skin, for example, was simply providing a signal to the brain, kind of like an input of information.
bruce lipton
Yeah, in embryology, those that have out there may have heard the words.
In embryology, you start with a single egg, you fertilize it, it forms a ball of cells, and the next stage is called a gastrulation, which is a funny word, but it really means that the embryo, the cells, have stratified into three layers, an outer layer, a middle layer, and an inner layer.
These layers are called, you know, right in sequence, the outer layer ectoderm, the middle layer mesoderm, and the inner layer endoderm.
Derm means a germ layer.
So ecto means outer.
So the outer layer of the embryo, there's three layers.
The outer layer is called ectoderm.
Each one of these germ layers is responsible for providing very specific organs or tissues of the body.
The ectoderm only provides for two things, the skin and the central nervous system.
The central nervous system is formed from the back of the embryo.
The skin of the back turns in and forms what is called a neural tube, and that becomes the spinal cord and the brain.
And so what was the point is, well, the cell's skin is the brain.
The human skin, the derivative of the skin from the back, actually becomes the brain itself.
And it says the same thing.
And this is a very important point, is that when I tell students this when I was teaching in medical school, they see themselves, or we each see ourselves, we look in the mirror as this singular entity, a single person.
I look in the mirror, I see Bruce right there, and I say, well, that's one thing.
And the reality is that is a misinterpretation for this reason.
If I would shrink you down to the size of a cell, you would see that you are actually made out of living units.
unidentified
The living things that make you are the cells.
bruce lipton
You are a community of cells.
In fact, maybe up to 50 trillion cells in that community.
What's the point?
It's like, well, you look at yourself as a singular thing, but in truth, you're a harmonious when you're healthy community of 50 trillion cells interacting together with a, just like a metropolis.
I mean, they exchange food and money and energy.
art bell
So we're sort of a totality of brain.
Okay, all right.
Dr. Bruce Lipton is my guest from the high deserts.
In the middle of The night.
Lots to be learned this night about consciousness and the nature of what we really are.
We tend to think of ourselves in such a separate way: our skin, all the rest of us, and our brain, that's all separate.
Right.
unidentified
Wrong.

art bell
My guest is Dr. Bruce Lipton, who essentially walked away from a tenured career at a major university.
You just don't do that.
After having an epiphany about the nature of us, he had been doing cloning on human cells.
Oh, we need to ask about that as well, which we will in a moment.
My wife during the break said, well, then, if we really are all of that, when we get a really terrible sunburn, haven't we just, well, haven't we damaged our brain?
unidentified
The End
art bell
Since Dr. Lipton was involved actually in cloning human stem cells, it's an irresistible question to take you back to that research, doctor, and ask you about the, I don't know, the advisability of the race we have going on right now with cloning and eventually, I suppose, with genetic tampering and changing.
And, oh, we seem on the precipice of this incredible revolution.
Do you think that we're wholly on a wise course here?
bruce lipton
Absolutely not.
And in fact, it's real interesting in this regard because all of us have stem cells in us right now.
And there's an interesting, like, you know, philosophical point, if you think about it, is that if we all have stem cells, then why is it that the pharmaceutical industry, for example, has to identify how to make those stem cells work?
Almost like a joke, like God gave us stem cells but didn't give us a way to use them.
The fact is we have stem cells, and they are quite usable in our system.
And yet, it's based on perception of the system, what those stem cells, what's going to become of them.
It's just like I said, I start with stem cells, I put them in this environment, they form this, I put them in another environment, they form something completely different.
And then you start to realize it's the environment that was controlling the development of those stem cells.
And in our world, in our belief system, there's this tendency to believe that we are not like a renewing kind of organism, that we can't repair and replace ourselves.
That's a belief.
And yet, unfortunately, that perception gets in the way of the operation of the stem cells and prevents us from healing ourselves because we have a tendency to believe that we can heal ourselves.
art bell
But we can.
bruce lipton
Yes, we can, and amazing things happen.
And then we call them miracles.
And people try, again, there's always, these are exceptions to the rule.
And sort of like, look, Roger Bannister was the first guy to run the four-minute mile.
He was the exception to the rule.
But once he did it, other people saw that they could be the exceptions to the rule and changed.
And many, many people were able to run a four-minute mile after he did it once.
And we're a similar kind of thing here.
We have to recognize that we have abilities that have been essentially programmed out of us regarding our own ability to heal ourselves.
I mean, there were essentially, look, there were a million years of humans before they were doctors, and they manage themselves very well.
And the fact is we have bought into a perception that we are frail, that we live in a world and everything is out there to get us.
art bell
Well, are you suggesting the science of stem cell research, eventually replacement, I guess, is a sort of a fraud?
In other words, it's not the active ingredient in the cure?
bruce lipton
No, it's not so much a fraud, it's a misdirection because it's our belief system that has propagated us to think that these are just mechanical devices and you throw in the right chemical and this mechanical device is going to do a miracle for you.
When in Reality, if they come up with a chemical that controls those stem cells, guess what?
It must match a chemical we already have in our body because if God gave us the stem cells, it wasn't without the key to use them.
And so, the fact is, we actually have to recognize that it is within ourselves this ability to heal ourselves.
And it's been something that we've been programmed out of.
And, you know, I mean, it's based on perception.
Just think about it, that an infant is born with a doctor that goes to the doctor for checkups on its health all the time.
During its young period, anytime it gets sick, the information is, well, if you're sick, I have to take you to the doctor.
And if we get around to understanding this new understanding of epigenetics, how our perceptions control our biology, and you start to see a program that a child receives when it's young that says, when it's sick, it's not up to itself to heal itself.
Then you have to take it to some specialist to heal it.
And the reality is then that becomes a perception, and then that is then what controls the healing.
And in fact, it's interesting how many people have that perception.
And actually, when they get sick, on the way to the doctor, they already start to get better because once you engage the steps that you've put in the way of healing, then the healing process can begin again.
art bell
Boy, are you right about that?
Boy, are you ever right about that?
You know, what you just said, I had a pretty bad flu not too long ago, and it just went, you know, the temperature went on and on and on and on.
And after so many days of having a very high temperature, I said to my wife, okay, that's it.
We're going to the hospital.
So we get in the car, and we've got about an hour drive from here in Front, Nevada, to Las Vegas, to the hospital where I went.
And I'm telling you right now, doctor, by the time I got there, my temperature had fallen.
I was feeling better for the first time in days and days and days.
And this is all in the one, you know, from that moment, that instant of decision to go ahead and go to the doctor to the hour drive to get in there, it was almost like, why was I there?
bruce lipton
Absolutely.
And we have these powers, and it's funny because we live in a world where we've been taught that these powers don't exist.
And since the biology, which that epiphany really led me to, is the nature that every cell is, and technically every cell is a programmable chip, and that the human body is an integration of 50 trillion chips, and that the programmer is not inside the cell.
And this is the part that blew me away because I realized our identity isn't in the cell.
It plays to the cell.
And this became part of the epiphany of how that membrane works.
And that was this NITER transformation where I realized, oh my God, all those years I was teaching these students about genetic control, and they're still getting the same message.
And it is now, well, it's been 20 or more years since I caught onto it.
But conventional science in the last 10 years has fully recognized this.
And yet, it's not coming out to the mainstream very quickly because an interesting loophole is that when people know this, then they're in power of their own health.
And there's a lot of interest that are not interested in seeing that happen.
art bell
And I'm sure the drug companies are not all that interested in seeing that.
bruce lipton
They make money on selling pills.
If you could heal yourself with energy and you can't sell the energy, then they're not interested in promoting that.
And it's an important understanding because I have to really stand here and say, look, medicine is getting a bad rap because it's not living up to whatever it's been promising.
And there's a fact that it irritates me so much because this fact is so important and not revealed.
And that is that the leading cause of death in the United States today is the medical profession.
And it's not, and it's a fact by numbers.
I mean, I could give you Gary Null's website.
He has an article, Death by Medicine, with all the statistics.
And the fact is the AMA said they were third in the leading cause of death themselves.
So the medical profession admitted to being third leading cause of death.
And they did it with estimates.
And then what Gary Null did, he said, rather than the estimates, let me just get the real numbers and let me know what the numbers say.
And the numbers were staggering.
780,000 people die from medical intervention, not because of the sickness they came with, but because of the consequence of the intervention.
And then all of a sudden it's like, and now this is my point, if there's a soapbox, please, it's not the medical doctor's fault.
It's not their fault at all because it's the academic fault and it's the pharmaceutical industry's fault.
art bell
Nor, by the way, is it necessarily saying that physicians are unneeded.
People still fall down, break bones.
bruce lipton
Oh, absolutely.
unidentified
I mean, listen, physicians do this.
bruce lipton
There's nobody better in the entire world than if you have trauma, the medical profession is the place to go.
You want to fix something, cut it out, replace it, you know, tie it up.
These guys do miracles, okay?
But when you want to get down to the mechanisms of why something happened, why do we have a cancer?
What causes Alzheimer's?
How come diabetes is this big issue?
Well, these aren't trauma.
These are other things.
And here's the problem.
Medicine knows the body as a physical device, a mechanical device, and can treat it like a repair person says, oh, you know, I've got to take out the exhaust pipe, put a new pipe in.
You know, I have to put a new bypass around this carburetor and right here, like this.
That's easy to do.
But when it comes to understanding the mechanics of how it works, they don't really have an understanding because they're still being taught the concept that genes control life.
And let's straighten this out for the audience right now, a simple point.
If genes control life, which is the belief, and the genes are in the nucleus of a cell, which is this large organelle inside a cell, and genes control life, then there's a simple fact.
If you take the genes out and throw them away, there's no control left, and life should stop.
And this process is called enucleation, and I actually did this with my clone cells, is I destroy the DNA.
It's not working at all.
It's done.
And what happens is the cells still go on and live and still make all the responses that they would.
art bell
Oh, no, that's fascinating.
You destroyed the DNA in cells.
bruce lipton
Yes.
art bell
Just to see what would happen.
And you're suggesting nothing happened.
bruce lipton
Well, it didn't change their behavior.
I can tell you exactly what happened at some point.
And it's a funny thing about it because we've been up to now saying that the genes control the cell as if the genes are the brain of the cell.
In fact, many textbooks actually say that.
And the fact is, if you take the brain out of an organism and throw it away by definition, that organism is going to die.
And we buy that.
But it turns out the genes and the nucleus is not the brain.
It's the gonad of the cell.
It's reproduction.
It doesn't have an idea in the world what needs to be turned on and off.
The genes are not intelligent, and we've given them this intelligence.
So basically, it says, well, what happens when you take the genes out and throw it away?
And the answer is, at some point, the cell will die because it was using those genes, those blueprints, to replace the building blocks of the machinery of the cell.
If I throw away the genes, there's a point where all of a sudden I'll need a protein to do a function, and I won't have the blueprint available.
And then at some point, that's when the cell will stop.
art bell
All right, this is going to seem a little off track, or maybe it's not.
There was this crazy story that I read a few years ago.
I've got it in front of me right now called Mike the Headless Chicken.
bruce lipton
Yes.
art bell
Now, this chicken had its head cut off.
Only trouble, I mean, this is pretty horrible stuff.
It didn't die.
And the owner kept feeding it by pouring stuff down its headless neck.
I swear to God, this is cut.
By pouring food down its headless neck.
And in every other way, this chicken went on to lead a normal, as much as you can without a head.
Normal life, it's not possible, only it actually happens.
bruce lipton
Here's the truth about yourself.
I'll tell you what.
We could take your digestive tract, I cut it from your mouth out all the way down, the stomach, the guts, all the way down to the rectum.
I take it out of you, put it on a table, stick a piece of food in one end, and it will digest the food and eliminate the waste at the other end.
The controls are built into its own self so that the process of putting food in will engage all the next steps.
And that we now know that things like walking and standing, a lot of that has to do with actual spinal cord information.
art bell
Inherently so, which goes back to your the brain is sort of everywhere contentious.
bruce lipton
Every cell has a brain.
That's the important thing.
And that in your community of cells, there's a distribution of the workload.
I mean, that's what the nature of a community is, to share awareness.
That's why the first three billion years of life on this planet, there was three billion years of living things.
You know what?
They were all single cells.
They were like yeast and bacteria and amoebas and some paramecia and algae.
art bell
So then, Doctor, in this headless chicken.
Yes.
The spinal cord left intact, and the rest of the chicken was enough for this chicken to function normally as a chicken without a head.
bruce lipton
As long as he put the food in there and the chicken didn't have to do any consideration about what it had to do, you know, the rest of it is a mechanical device.
It's sort of like people that get put on life support systems.
Their brain's not working.
As long as you feed it, the body will continue to run.
There's an intelligence throughout the entire body.
Every cell is intelligent.
That was the nature of the stem cell research.
It's interesting.
I would take stem cells from muscular dystrophy patients, put them into tissue culture, and you know what?
They grew better in the tissue culture than they did in the patient.
And the reason was they necessarily weren't having the problem.
It was the environment inside the patient that was toxic.
So it's a whole new understanding, and it's very, very important because it says, look, we are not victims of genes.
We can rewrite which genes that we use on a day-by-day, minute-by-minute basis.
It's a way of staying alive in a dynamic world is the ability to change which genes are being read at any time in order so your biology will meet the demands of that world.
art bell
So if you were diagnosed with, I don't know, Alzheimer's, for example, how would you proceed with the understanding that you have and a diagnosis in your hand?
How would you proceed?
bruce lipton
The first thing I would try to find out is where's the cause of the problem?
The Alzheimer's, let's say, is actually the symptom of the problem.
That's the consequence of something going wrong.
Not it itself is the problem.
It is the consequence.
Now the issue is where do things go wrong?
Well, you could have something physical go wrong, like trauma could cause a problem.
You know, blunt force trauma is certainly going to interfere with the nervous system and stuff like that.
art bell
Yes, but that kind of thing aside.
bruce lipton
Yeah, the main thing that we now know is the concept called auto-suggestion.
It's also psychoneuroimmunology is another example of that.
Meaning at some point we used to ascribe all the control to something within the cell, the genes, and now the control is being sent up the line up to the interpretation of the nervous system.
And so the genes are more or less obedient to the central nervous system, which makes sense for this reason.
Every cell is intelligent.
Every cell, I could take it out of your body, put them in a tissue culture dish, they'll grow, they'll be happy, they'll multiply and all this kind of stuff.
And every cell is independently looking at the world and responding to whatever it has to do to adjust its biology to stay alive.
art bell
All right, but once again, here you are with Alzheimer's.
I'm asking how you personally would proceed.
bruce lipton
Okay, and the thing is I'd have to go back and find out what kind of belief system would I be involved with that would support this process.
And I'll give you a couple examples because even knowing people that personally were very dear to me that ended up with this, and I could see right away one of the big issues, there are two main issues.
One is that when people get cut off and their lives are sort of like they're getting older, they lose social contacts.
It has been demonstrated that this loss of social contact is one of the primary causes of senile dementia, including Alzheimer's.
Basically, it says the brain is like any other tissue organ system in the body.
The more you use it, the more it develops, the less you use it, it will automatically dismantle itself because the biology is efficient.
It just says, if you use it, then I'm going to keep it here.
And if you're not going to use it, then we're taking it apart because we're not maintaining it for a trophy, the body, that is.
So the body will adjust to its use.
And they now find, as I said, and these are references that can be off my website that people can get off the website about this, is that it now recognizes that the vast majority of senile dementia is due to lack of use of the brain.
That's one thing, right?
art bell
Atrophy, right?
bruce lipton
Atrophy of the brain, because you lose your contacts, you lose your community of people, and then you start to go internally more at that point, and then your skills start to dismantle themselves.
That's one thing.
And then there's a pathological thing that could also cause, and that is people who are being leaned on by so many other people.
Like, you know, they're in demand to keep the show running, let's say.
And the pressure is, like, so much that the only way out is to disconnect.
And so that there would be a, how can a thought cause that?
And the answer is, let me alone.
And this is really important because the thoughts that we have in our head are actually directives that are being sent to the cells.
So you might sit there at the stoplight and hear these thoughts running in your head like it's entertaining your head.
Well, in one sense, they may be.
In the other sense, you have to recognize this.
All those thoughts are being broadcast to 50 trillion cells.
And these cells are who you are.
This is the collective community.
Their collective consciousness is our consciousness and the reality.
So we're living in this community and our central voice, meaning our central nervous system, is sort of like the government talking to the cells.
And psychologists tell us 70% or more of those thoughts in your head while you're at that light are negative and redundant.
art bell
All right.
Doctor, hold it right there.
So what I'm interested in is, if you had such a diagnosis, what precise, real steps would you begin to take to reverse it?
Or would it begin to reverse the moment you decided you were going to reverse it?
Fascinating stuff from the high desert.
I'm Art Bell, and this is Coast to Coast AM.
unidentified
Coast to Coast AM Coast to Coast AM You got me living on me for the night.
You bought the phone, all the story told.
You take me down, you take myself.
Another life, another thing.
I never saw myself do one love while I had to forget to play my role You take yourself, you take myself and grow.
I, I live among the creatures of the night.
I haven't got the will to try and fight against the moon tomorrow.
So I guess I'll just believe it, but tomorrow never comes.
I said, night, I'm living in the farthest of the dreams.
I know the night is not as it would seem.
I must believe in something, so I'll make myself believe it.
This night will never go.
Oh, oh, oh.

That would be me, all right, a creature of the night, no doubt about it.
My guest is Dr. Bruce Lipton.
And we're talking about consciousness and our brains and what our brains really are, what our cells really are.
And I guess if you'd buy into it, you could probably cure just about anything.
It's that honest to God buying into it that's going to be tough.
unidentified
It's that honest to God.
art bell
Well, all right.
Tomorrow night, in the first hour, I've got breaking news for you.
Tomorrow night, you don't want to miss this.
I'm going to get it up on the web by hook or crook.
It's a pretty big file, but there's a gentleman in Phoenix who has taped very clear footage of the new Phoenix lights.
And these lights apparently have been seen quite frequently recently, but man, he nailed them in a good, clear video.
And we're going to get that up for you tomorrow night as well as have him on the air in the first hour to talk about it.
And then Nick Cook and the hunt for zero point.
I'm sure you recall Nick Cook right now, of course, Bruce Lipton and Dr. Bruce Lipton, I should say.
And we're talking about, in a way, consciousness, The cellular consciousness, if you will.
And I want to head off in a direction for a second, Doctor.
There are some.
Let me first ask you: how do you define, or would you attempt to define consciousness?
What is consciousness?
bruce lipton
Well, it's an emergent property in the sense that every cell is sentient.
It's very much observing its world.
But when you put the 50 trillion together, there's an energy of an awareness among all 50 trillion cells.
They're all like listening to the same station.
And as a result, this energy of awareness is circulating through the system.
There's more to it as well, though, because there's an identity factor that comes in that distinguishes each human from being a separate entity.
And I mean that in the sense that if I try to take my cells and put it into UART, your immune system is going to say these aren't mine.
And the question is, well, whose are who, and how do you know whose whose is?
And the answer is, is that on the surface of the cell, this membrane we talked about, there are a set of antennas.
And these are receptors, and in fact, a community of them are called self-receptors, receivers of self.
And the significance about that is that each of us's unique identity is distinguished by these protein antennas.
If I take my antennas off my cell, my cells are generic.
And I can implant them into any human, they won't be rejected.
If I take my antennas off and put yours on my cell, I would reject that cell if it was put back in my own body.
You would accept that cell as yours.
And so the point is, you can transfer the ownership by attaching your personal set of antennas on them.
Well, the interesting part about that is that the signal isn't from the antennas.
The antennas are downloading a signal.
And so this is the thing that freaked me out because I didn't believe in spirituality until I realized that my identity is an environmental signal that comes through these antennas.
If the antennas are on my cell, then the cell will respond to me.
If I take the antennas off, then the cell is generic.
It will not have that same response.
I put yours on, they respond to your signal.
And when I realized it, it's sort of like a PIN code to get into the operation of the cell, that this is an outside identity.
And when I realized that, I mean, the first moment was, oh my gosh, my identity is playing through this cell.
And what really hit me at the first moment of this instant of this epiphany was, yeah, but if the cell dies, did the identity die in the broadcast, so to speak?
art bell
It's out there in the field.
bruce lipton
But this is where it plays in for people out there that will catch it, is that we now recognize that when people start to receive big graphs of organs and tissues from other people, like heart and lungs, they also begin to acquire the character of those people.
That's quite true.
And people say, well, it's cellular memory, but I'll tell you, after working with cells for the last 40 years, the cells don't have that kind of memory processing where they can tell chicken McNuggets and beer from anything else.
The reality is that the people who donated the organ, their identity is still playing through it.
art bell
Apparently.
bruce lipton
Yes, and so in a sense, I mean, Pearsall's book on Change of Heart was interesting because he talked about a whole number of these, even to the extent that a young girl or woman, I can't forgot what age it was, received a heart from a younger girl that got shot, killed.
And when she acquired this, she was later able to lead the police to the murderer.
art bell
Yes.
bruce lipton
And all of a sudden you have to say, where's this information coming from?
art bell
Yes.
bruce lipton
And this is what just shocked me because I realized it's a broadcast.
We're made in the image of the field in a biblical sense.
We're made in the image of this broadcast.
And if I take your set of receptors and put it on a completely different, like an embryo just coming into the world, you'd be playing back again.
art bell
All right, Doctor, has there ever been any measurement?
I'm trying to think of how to ask you this, indicating that there is something emanating from us that can be measured, or is it occurring in a way that it's going to ultimately not be measurable until we have some sort of quantum receiver or something?
What I'm getting at, I guess, here, let me lay it out for you.
Have you been following the studies at Princeton?
bruce lipton
About the field effect?
art bell
About the Human Consciousness Project, it's called.
bruce lipton
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
art bell
Are you good you have been following that?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
All right.
Well, they have these graphs, and they're watching these eggs all over the world, geographically spread out, eggs meaning computers, spitting out random numbers.
Suddenly, they get non-random, and some giant event happens.
I mean, 30 minutes before the twin towers are hit, kaboom, it goes, four hours, in fact, goes off the charts.
And it's happened with all these events.
It's as though there's some sort of mass consciousness broadcast going on.
And they found, albeit perhaps at this stage a rather crude way, but a way to detect this.
bruce lipton
And this is an important part of our evolution that we haven't caught on to is because we keep looking at ourselves as these independent units.
art bell
Yes.
bruce lipton
And we actually ourselves in a larger organism called humanity.
We are individual collective units in that organism.
And our lesson, of course, is that we think that there are nations that separate one person from another person.
The reality is the lessons, when we get them, recognize there is one living thing on this planet called humanity.
And that is the equivalent of that central voice that I was talking about.
When cells come together in a community, they're controlled by this central voice.
And the cells of humans on the community of humanity have the same thing.
One of the interesting ones that I really like the most is a year after 911, exactly one year later, the anniversary, New York City, it's 2002 on September 11th.
And of course, everyone is thinking.
I mean, it's like one year, of course, everything was playing over this whole thing, this 911.
That's right.
And the lottery that night in New York was, the winner was 911.
art bell
That's a fact.
bruce lipton
That is a fact.
And it's interesting because this isn't really a lot of coincidence.
There's a part where we are involved with creating mass events through what we perceive.
art bell
So this sets up so many things to think about.
So if somebody laid out some sort of event.
Let me suggest one, just pluck one from my current thought process.
that, for example, an ocean current was beginning to slow, and if not, even stop, and then cause a freezing of Europe and all kinds of terrible things to occur.
If this became generally accepted knowledge that this was happening, could it become, in that same way, a self-fulfilling prophecy, and that consciousness could have this...
I actually got the audience to participate in the millions in trying to create some weather changes, Dr. Lipton.
And by God, we did it.
In areas where there wasn't supposed to be rain, none in the forecast, terrible drought, we made rain.
And we did this one way or another about 10 or 11 times.
And I finally got down to number 11.
I said, you know, that's it.
I don't know what I'm doing with this.
It scares me a little.
It's real.
There's no doubt about it.
But I've got to stop here because I don't know what I'm doing.
bruce lipton
Well, this is the biggest issue about that truth that you really came across and are influencing our world.
And the problem that we have is because we find ourselves as being powerless as individuals and not responsible even, and then starting to have these thoughts.
And we can be manipulated to like a war.
And the fact is, I mean, here's an example, is that a soccer game.
Now, people don't generally go there because of the fight, okay?
And yet the reality is when these things break out, people who are pacifists in the middle of these things will get caught up.
art bell
And join in.
bruce lipton
And join in.
And that is because we are in the field, and we respond to the field as the cells in your body are in your own field, and your thought patterns are changing their behavior and their responses at the moment you have them.
And people are in the same parallel relationship in this larger thing called humanity.
art bell
We have never really quite understood mob psychology, but there is a mob psychology.
As you just pointed out, you get, whether you like it or not, no matter how level-headed you think you might be, if you're in the middle of it, you're going to get caught more than likely caught up in it.
bruce lipton
Well, and we know that, you see, every brain is a tuning fork, and it's broadcasting magnetic fields like crazy.
And these are read with a device called M-E-G, not EEG.
A magnetoencephalograph, excuse me, magnetoencephalograph.
And the significance about that is that as you are processing information in your head, you're actually broadcasting magnetic fields that are altered to your thinking processes.
And that these are being broadcast all the time.
But then here's what science recently did.
They were saying, look, we're measuring these magnetic fields coming out.
What if we put magnetic fields back in?
And as soon as they did that, people started to get hallucinations and senses.
I mean, it just was like it so profoundly changed their perception of reality.
art bell
I think that actually, isn't that the process that produced what's known as a near-death experience?
bruce lipton
Well, this has been part of it, again, and part of it says that in some way you can let go of the control that you actually are playing through these antennas and that you can pull out of it.
You can be out of your body and your intention be in the field or you can be in your body and you can be in either one.
So there's in or out of body, and yet when you're in your body, there are a whole bunch of other parameters and things that you can experience that you cannot experience when you're out of body.
So it becomes an interesting point.
If we live both in and out, what are we doing in the body that's unique?
And the answer is, well, if I just said you were just a spiritual entity alone, which we are, and I said, if you were just a spirit and you didn't have the body, what does chocolate taste like?
Or what does a sunset look like?
Or what does love feel like?
And you wouldn't really be able to have an answer because all those are sensations that are derived from our physical bodies that translate the environment and convert it into electromagnetic frequencies that our brain is reading.
So that light comes in the eye, but electric vibrations come out of the optic nerve.
Sound comes in the ear.
Electric vibrations come out of the oral nerve.
And any nerve that's sending information from the outside will convert whatever the information is on the outside to an electromagnetic vibration.
So in a real sense, we're sort of like Earthlanders.
We get the chance to get into this body and sense a reality using ourselves as mechanical transducers to convert the world into things that we perceive now.
art bell
All right, then.
Let me ask you, give you a scenario and ask you if this would work.
All right?
Let's say that I became aware that I, through MRI or something, that I had some sort of tumor.
unidentified
Yes.
art bell
Could I, over a period of time, go into a meditative state and virtually will that tumor to shrink and eventually disappear all together?
Could I be successful?
I mean, is that the practical application of what everything we're talking about right now.
bruce lipton
Yes, this is, and people do this on a daily basis.
And it's very important because we are told to don't look at that.
That's not real.
Okay?
And we keep getting shunted away from people who do these things because it's not in the interest to broadcast this kind of information.
I said, the placebo effect is a fundamental reality of how you can heal yourself, and yet we don't ever try to leverage it.
We don't even try to study it.
art bell
Well, have you gotten down to specifics?
I mean, could you actually give somebody instruction on how they should proceed if they wanted to follow this regimen of treatment and try and actually just simply cure themselves?
bruce lipton
There's a nice pathway to go on this, and it has to deal with the fact that we have two minds, the conscious mind and the subconscious mind, and we have to recognize the difference between the two and recognize that the subconscious mind is essentially the entire brain.
The conscious mind is coming really from the forebrain region, a smaller portion of it.
That the subconscious mind is a million times more powerful in processing information than is the conscious mind.
That the subconscious mind is a complete stimulus-response mechanism.
It is a tape player.
There's nobody in there.
It is programmed, and especially the first six years of our lives, our brain activity is designed that we actually don't express alpha activity, which is consciousness, until about six years of age.
That the first six years, our brain is predominantly in delta and theta, which is called a hypnogic state.
And it is during those first six years that we learn all the rules of fitting into human society.
And in addition, during that hypnogic state, we also identify characters about ourselves that we are told by the outside people, like our parents.
And we then record that in the subconscious mind.
And here's the problem with the subconscious mind.
There's nobody in there.
It's a push-button response as people say, oh my God, that guy pushed my buttons.
art bell
Bruce, is this why, for example, I can have a really intractable, I work a lot with electronics, you know, an intractable problem.
I just can't figure it out.
I can work day and night and day and night to the point where I'm just ready to collapse in sleep and so angry that I can't figure it out.
And so I go to sleep thinking about the problem.
And so many times, doctor, I wake up the next morning and within an, sometimes within 10 minutes of waking up, if not right away, I somehow have figured out during the night, during my sleep, what was wrong, and I go in and kaboom, I fix what I couldn't fix otherwise in two days of conscious effort.
bruce lipton
Like you, all the other, these very brilliant people in this world, from Newton to Einstein down, have all said the same kind of thing is that they let go of the thing and they go out and frequently it's hand out of body issue and at night of course this is an opportune time for doing that that the information is out in the field and that we can download it but the conscious mind can interfere with that and this is the interesting part it's sort of like the harder you try to do something what
You have to stop for a second and say, I'm making an effort, I'm working hard to get this done.
art bell
That's right.
bruce lipton
The question is, why are you working hard?
Give me the premise.
And the premise is there somewhere.
It's because the answer is not going to come easy, so I'm going to work hard.
And guess what?
Now it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Your belief underlying it is, if it was going to come easy, you wouldn't have been working hard in the first place.
So your belief is, it's not going to come easy.
art bell
That's right.
bruce lipton
And then you work harder, and the harder you work is, the less likely it's going to come, until you realize, until you give up.
And the moment you give up, then the information is available to come in.
But when you are working hard at something, it's a reason for it.
There's an underlying belief that says it's not going to come easy.
And so therefore, you perpetuate this by aggressively trying to get it to make the world work the way you want.
And it's like, no, you're pushing it farther away.
And when you let go, and especially when you can be out of body, you have all this information available to you.
It's bringing it back in.
That's the hard part.
art bell
Well, I certainly have experienced that.
And I would imagine many, many, many, many people in this audience have also experienced that.
I mean, it's just an absolute truth.
But the trouble is, we've never known why it's true.
All right, hold on.
We're at the bottom of the hour.
Dr. Bruce Lipton is my guest.
And he left a tenured position at a big university because he realized something all of a sudden about the very nature of ourselves.
Who we are, what we are, what drives us.
Not necessarily that curly little genetic thing.
unidentified
It's 2 a.m.
And the fear is gone.
It's 2 a.m.
It's 2 a.m.
Because I'm still warm.
In the next time to take a chance.
Yeah, there's a storm on the loose.
Sirens in my head.
There's a sign of small circuits today.
Can't I be cold?
My whole life spins into a fantasy.
Oh, my whole life spins into a fantasy.

art bell
Indeed so.
And, you know, once again, I would like to thank all of you who have made possible the astounding ratings that we've received.
Ratings are in from the, you know, the major cities, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and they're astronomical.
They really are astronomical.
And that indicates that in a world of, I don't know, politically infested talk radio, there's a hunger for information that goes beyond the usual.
That's what we dispense here.
And I think the fact that the ratings are so through the roof indicates that there is a great hunger out there for this kind of information.
So thank you very much.
Glad to be dispensing of it with it.
Hope it helps.
And, you know, this is exactly centered around what I think people want to hear that they're not hearing anywhere else in the media.
And again, it accounts for the interest.
So there's a lot of interest in this.
With reference to the subject we're talking about right now, it's going to be dependent on people just absolutely buying this as kind of an article of faith because that's what drives the engine that makes it work.
And that's going to be a kind of a difficult job because there's so much out there in the regular medical community fighting against it so hard.
unidentified
Hmm.
art bell
It may be that the instinctual knowledge that people have, that some of the kind of information you're hearing this morning is genuine and real, a sort of an instinctual knowledge, even though it seems far out and, you know, kind of off into the touchy-feely category, right?
But people have this instinctual understanding that what they're hearing is the real McCoy.
And I think that accounts for all the interest in it, Doctor?
bruce lipton
Well, I just want to give an opportunity to tell the audience that my website, BruceLipton.com, has freely downloadable articles and references on everything we're talking about.
Because I didn't come into this because I was a wishful thinker and looking for spirituality.
I had actually no handle on that at all and wasn't even looking for it.
It was the cells that revealed it.
And so what we're talking about is a scientific understanding that we're evolving.
And this is why, for example, as you said, your program is starting to pick up.
Things are going to start picking up because we are indeed on a course of an evolutionary jump, which, interestingly enough, may even be actually by the time the Mayan calendar day 2012 arises, might actually manifest itself by then.
So that there's a real change going on, and the world looks really freaky and scary, a lot of it.
And it's interesting because it's sort of like a transformational time for human civilization.
We're leaving behind the victimhood, and that we are evolving another level of consciousness as a community, not as an individual, but our community will start to become more self-conscious, more mammalian in its character, while the current kind of civilization is more of a reptilian civilization.
It's conscious, but not self-conscious.
And that's what's happening.
We've been conscious of what we're doing, but not self-conscious, meaning, and that's the character of mammals, is that what you do today, when you're self-conscious, you actually plan what you do today based on what influence it has tomorrow.
art bell
Doctor, is there any way for you to impart an understanding?
I understand that, for example, two cells separated by it doesn't matter how far, one in Moscow and one in the U.S., two cells that have been together are shown to have this react together in some way that would imply a communication at a level that we don't begin to understand.
That goes through time and space and everything else and instantly.
bruce lipton
And they're entangled, and they're also tuned into the same broadcast.
And that's what happens.
That's like Cleve Baxter's work, really phenomenal stuff in that regard.
art bell
That's right.
bruce lipton
And basically, it says why the cells and the individual at distances respond to each other because both the cell and that individual are using the same coded antennas, receiving essentially the same broadcast.
And the broadcast is not localized.
It's throughout the globe so that wherever the cells are, they're going to instantaneously download what the other cells are experiencing in their environment no matter how.
art bell
Throughout the globe and maybe well beyond, maybe anywhere.
Maybe time and space is simply not a barrier to this communication, but it's so far beyond my understanding.
bruce lipton
It's interesting because there's a great analogy that to try to understand the relationship of a human on this planet and that energy that comes into it, the analogy is the Mariner.
The Mariner, we send that to Mars because we can't go to Mars, and we want to know what the experience of Mars would be.
So we send up a device, and it doesn't even look like a human, but the reality is it is completely set up with all kinds of human detection systems: cameras to see what's going on, temperature receptors to read the temperature, taste receptors to read the composition of what's going on.
All these things are ways like a human would experience, and that information is gathered by the mariner and sent back by an antenna to the guy at NASA.
Now, the guy at NASA is driving the vehicle, so he sends information to that vehicle via the antenna, and the information is downloaded, and then the experience of driving, the guy at NASA catches on how to drive by actually driving the vehicle and getting the feedback coming back from the system when he does certain maneuvers.
art bell
Okay, but I understand at what level and how that communication occurs, or at least the electromagnetic portion of it.
I understand the physics of how that works.
We don't begin to understand the physics of how the kind of cellular communication we were just talking about occurs.
We don't even begin to understand.
bruce lipton
And we're beginning to do that now because we're beginning to realize the conventional medicine has been looking at molecules in a Newtonian fashion, like they're lock and key, like two chemicals held together, like puzzle pieces.
unidentified
Yes.
bruce lipton
And new physics is looking at the same molecules, the proteins that make up the body, and have recently, in the last few years, have totally been blown away by what they recognize is that the proteins respond to quantum mechanical fields, and that they're responding not to Newtonian fields at all.
And why is this relevant?
Because all of a sudden the interest about vibrations, harmonic resonance, constructive, destructive interference in the field is what's controlling the biology and not that direct chemistry of a drug and a chemical interaction, for example.
And it's hard because conventional biology does not, the people that are in that field, I was in that field, okay?
And I could tell you, if I went around to ask physics questions to my colleagues in cell biology, I would get answers that were so weird because basically biologists, including myself when we did our stuff, never trained in physics.
That would be the, you know, you wouldn't jeopardize your grade point average to take a physics course to go to graduate school in biology.
And this is part of my wake-up call when I started to realize how this mechanism of the cell membrane worked.
It's actually an organic computer chip, and that the keyboard are these antennas, and the antennas resonate like tuning forks to the environmental signals.
So as a cell is in the field, there's all these tuning forks on the cell that are picking up complementary signals and converting those into biological information and then operating the cell.
So all of a sudden, those things that become quantum mechanical weird become biological weird and action at a distance and all these other kinds of things like that.
art bell
Yeah, so to put all this into practical application, Doctor, I just, I mean, people instinctively, I think, understand there's really something here.
But you're fighting a well-established medical and scientific community that's going to say what you're talking about is just hogwash.
And for what you're suggesting to work, people must believe it's true.
Therefore, it must be proven conclusively, scientifically, and you've got some big barriers to overcome.
bruce lipton
Well, yeah, but we also are beginning to actually, those barriers are falling, and that's why the references on the website are very helpful.
These are current things that are just, that are completely changing our established view.
We've been sort of like horses with blinders on being led down a path of genetic control when it turns out that the reality is very clear now that that whole thing was false.
It didn't work that way.
The Human Genome Project was a failure, a failure in what regard.
It goes this way, is that we believe genes control life.
To have that belief be real, we needed an excess of 140,000 genes to make a human being.
And that was the minimum number.
And it turns out the Human Genome Project reports that we only have 25,000 genes.
We have the same number of genes as some of the most primitive organisms on this planet.
And all of a sudden, that emphasis has said, your answers are going to be in the genes.
And it turns out they're not there.
And that's why this is an exciting time, because letting go of the genes is the opportunity and step to say, if it's not the genes, then what is it?
And that's when we get into it's the way a cell perceives the environment and responds to the signals.
And once you start to do that, you say, well, you're made out of cells.
And the answer is, yep.
All of them are perceiving the environment.
And the images that our brain sends to regard to those perceptions are then what control the cell.
So that, in fact, for example, we find out that 95% of cancer does not have a hereditary linkage.
Meaning it's not genetic running in families.
95% of cancer are people who get cancer by their response to the environment.
And recently, even the American Cancer Study, finally, the Cancer Society just came out like 10 days ago or something.
They finally came out with a statement.
It's an underestimate, I presume, we'll say right now, but they came out with a whopping 60-some percent of cancer is totally avoidable by changing lifestyle and diet.
And why is this important?
Because we have been continuously groomed on the belief that we are victims of these genes.
And then that's a belief.
And then we expect things to happen.
And when we start to expect things to happen, we don't realize that an expectation is a command from the central voice organizing the cells to select a program to meet the expectation.
art bell
Self-fulfilling prophecy.
bruce lipton
It's exactly what it is.
And I wasn't a religious person.
And you go back to all the great prophets that came throughout time, and almost every one of them to a teeth said, it's how you believe your life is.
That's what it's all about.
art bell
Well, there is value in that.
But I mean, you don't have to be of a specific religious.
bruce lipton
No, it has nothing to do with religion.
It has to do with belief.
art bell
Yes, yes, yes.
bruce lipton
And it's a belief about whether you think you are a victim, whether you think you have any power.
And it becomes important because then all of a sudden, because people will then say this way, well, listen, Bruce, I listen to what you said.
And I have these positive thoughts, and I keep having these positive thoughts.
These are my beliefs.
And guess what?
My life didn't change.
And I'm going to say, yeah, I can understand why.
Because your positive thoughts come from your conscious mind, which processes presumably something on the order of 40 bits of data per second.
And that's your conscious mind.
And the subconscious mind, in the same time, is processing about 40 million bits of data.
And the subconscious mind has all the programs in it.
And here's the point.
We didn't put most of those programs in without.
I mean, we didn't have consciousness.
Most of the programs were established before we were six years of age.
We were in that mindset where the subconscious mind was downloading all the rules and requirements to fit into society so that a child doesn't have to be coached by his parents, just has to observe how its parents behave.
It is a download.
And it becomes that way.
Well, here's the problem.
Now you're older.
And your conscious mind says, you know, I really deserve to be healthy and I deserve to be prosperous.
And how come I'm working so hard and it's not happening?
And then there's a tendency to say, the world's not giving it to me.
And the reality is when we find out, mostly our subconscious has been programmed with limiting beliefs.
And they say, well, what kind of limiting beliefs?
I say, well, go to a supermarket near rush hour.
Watch the parents of a child who's acting up because the child wants something at that store.
Let's say the kid's less than six.
And he's going through a tantrum because, I want this.
And the parents are yelling at him, you don't deserve that.
What people haven't recognized is that child's less than six, that's a straight download into the subconscious.
And that is a program.
If it's repeated, the child will get the belief it doesn't deserve something.
Not in its conscious mind, in the subconscious mind.
So here's the issue.
Now the person's operating down the street, and they're operating at a 40 bits per second with positive thoughts that I deserve to be successful.
And then 40 million bits of data down below in the subconscious are saying the program says I don't deserve things.
And guess what?
While you're not seeing it, you will sabotage yourself because the body and the brain have to be coherent.
If the brain says you don't deserve something and you get something, that will cause conflict in the entire system.
And the brain, well therefore the subconscious will sabotage you.
And then the issue is, well, you know, I didn't see that.
And if I give this one point, maybe it'll make things clear.
When you first got your driver's permit and you got in that car, you were driving with the conscious mind.
Do you know how hard it was if you think back of trying to keep everything in your mind at the same time, the gauges, the pedals, the mirrors, looking out the window?
It was staggering.
Once you learn how to drive, it's now in the subconscious mind, the program.
You don't have to think about it.
So today you get in the car, you put the key in, and you're at the store.
You haven't thought about one detail about exactly how to drive the car.
It's automatic now.
Okay, now here's the catch.
And if you get this one, then it makes all the sense in the world what happened.
It goes like this.
Now that we know how to drive this well, we can get so involved with a discussion with somebody in the car that all of a sudden, if you're driving the car, you look out the window and you realize you actually haven't paid attention to the road for the last 10 minutes.
That's right.
And now here's a point.
The conscious mind was engaged in the discussion.
Who was driving the car?
The subconscious mind.
Now here's the catch.
If you can get it, this is the whole catch.
And I say, okay, your conscious mind's a discussion.
The subconscious mind's driving the car.
I ask you, did you observe how you drove the car during that 10 minutes?
And the answer is, no, you didn't.
Your mind was engaged in the discussion.
art bell
That's right.
bruce lipton
And here's the point.
Then you had no idea the actual way you drove the car because when your conscious mind is busy, the subconscious mind, by its definition, is running the show.
But your conscious mind was busy, so it didn't see.
And here's the point.
Then all the programs that are in our subconscious mind is now demonstrated as a clear point.
95% of our daily activity comes from this unconscious mind.
Meaning 95% of your life is playing from this part of the mind that you don't observe when it's doing it.
And most importantly, the fundamental programs that you're operating from were actually programmed into your awareness before you were even conscious.
And so all you have to do is recognize, were you one of those kids that was like in that store?
And you heard from your parents, you're just an average kid.
You don't deserve things.
You're stupid.
You're not smart.
You can't play music.
You're not good at art.
Why?
If these were in the program, then the subconscious mind with a million times more power is going to play that program even if the conscious mind is saying, I can do it.
unidentified
I can do it.
bruce lipton
Well, it's like shouting into the hurricane.
It's like, no, the wind's blowing the other way here because the subconscious mind is so much more powerful.
That's why you talk about, well, well, then you have to use willpower.
And the answer is, yeah, you're fighting yourself.
And the issues are, and you brought it up earlier, can you do something about it?
And the answer is at some point, yes.
If you identify the programs that are limiting you in this subconscious mind, you can rewrite them.
But here's the failure.
And this is, people have got to hear, the failure is this.
There's nobody in the subconscious mind.
Trying to talk to yourself and say, oh, I don't like that behavior, and I don't want to do that again.
Well, that's nice, but there wasn't anybody there.
The subconscious mind's a tape player.
So I might as well give you a cassette tape, and then you put it in your player, and you push play, and then you realize you don't like that tape, and then so what do you do?
You yell at the tape.
Come on, play something different.
I'm tired of this.
Play something different.
The point is this.
How much yelling at the cassette tape is going to cause the program to change?
And the answer is, you can yell till you're blue in the face.
The idea is why?
There's nobody there.
You have to go through a process.
And there are processes that you can now get into these subconscious behaviors that we can't see, that operate most of the time and control our lives.
And that's why our consciousness is looking out the other side thinking, why is life so hard?
As if the universe doesn't want to give you something, and we don't realize that we were sabotaging it on our own because we don't see that tape when it plays.
I mean, all you have to do is talk to some people that you know that you can see that they're just like their parents, and you say, You know, you're just like your mom.
And when you say that to some woman, she will probably just shrink and go, What?
Are you kidding me?
And the reality is why they cannot see the mother's program, which they got in the first six years.
When it's playing, they can't see it.
art bell
No, of course not.
They're the frog in the slowly heating water is what they are.
bruce lipton
And so that's why you say, so what's our issues with our lives?
And most of the issues with our lives are the fact that that very sensitive period, which actually starts about midway through pregnancy and through the first six years of our lives, we are acquiring programs of how to deal with life that are from other people and not from our own consciousness.
art bell
All right.
Hold it right there, Doctor.
We're at the top of the hour.
We're going to go to the phones with Dr. Lipton when we get back from the high desert.
Perhaps all of it, every bit of it, is in the air tonight and every night.
unidentified

It is.
Welcome to the University of the Knowledge of Night.
Or would that be Knowledge in the Night?
Dr. Bruce Lipton, this hour is my guest.
And in a moment, we'll move over to you.
In other words, we'll take calls.
Stay right there.
The Good Doctor's book is The Biology of Belief, Unleashing the Power of Consciousness.
And I suppose in that book you describe exactly how to unleash that power.
Is that correct?
bruce lipton
Well, we describe how it works and how you can get to it.
And it's a book, it's a science book written for the lay audience.
And if they go to the website, there's a place on there that they can get information on the book.
They can actually read a chapter because its design was to take that leading-edge science and make it everyday kind of knowledge.
art bell
I think that's very wise.
A lot of authors are deciding to put their first chapters up on the web, and it's a very effective strategy.
bruce lipton
Well, it gives them a chance to see what they're getting into.
I mean, I bought Stephen Hawking's Beyond Time and got about halfway through it and started realizing I'm reading the same chapter over and over and over again, and then put it on the shelf, only to find that almost everybody else that I know who got the book ended up doing the same thing.
And that is, if you make the science that complex, it lost the value.
So you can write it, and this is what the opportunity is to see, that you can write about science and make it readable.
art bell
All right.
Your work would suggest neo-Darwinian theory does not fully reflect how life arose on the planet.
Does this new biology support evolution or creationism in a way, or what?
bruce lipton
It does both of them at exactly the same time.
It says that there was a field, and the field is what gives shape to the matter as much as a magnetic field gives shape to iron philings.
You can sprinkle the iron philings throughout the field.
They just form random things.
But when you put a field, like a magnet, in some place around it, and you sprinkle the philings, they conform to the field.
So the field was here, and yet the cells, you couldn't take 50 cells and make a human.
You actually had to bootstrap it.
You started building something smaller.
And then ultimately, organism appeared after organism as a hierarchy.
So there was an energetic form, in a sense, there before, and then there was a process of evolution to reach that form in the end.
And it's a wonderful solution because it says both are right.
And that's really the way we have to go into the future is to sort of mend these such disparate views that we have about the world because they all have to make sense.
And that's why it's interesting, as the book describes, if you understand these mechanisms, allopathic medicine and the way we follow that, and complementary medicine with its emphasis on the energy systems of the body and spiritual healing on the energy systems of the field all make sense on this common biology.
So I think we're really coming to a grand evolutionary jump, which is imminent and necessary.
art bell
All right.
I want to bring some listeners online.
Let them ask questions.
How would that be?
bruce lipton
I'm ready.
art bell
All right.
Let's see how they digested it.
West to the Rockies.
You're on the air with Dr. Lipton.
unidentified
Hello, Dr. Lipton.
This is an honor to be able to speak with you, and I need to ask you this question.
I am calling from Oregon, and my first seven years of childhood I have no memory of.
And I'm back at the place of my birth now, and I am finding something very strange.
First of all, I've been trying to find an explanation for this for years.
I thought God was being kind to me because it was a very abusive, extremely bad childhood.
My mother tried to poison me.
I was placed in a foster home and such.
And I know the power of the mind.
In fact, I'm almost 50 and people marvel because I have no wrinkles.
And I reject, I figure I was robbed because I didn't have that childhood.
So I reject my biological age, and I believe that's why I look so young.
bruce lipton
And I agree with you, too.
unidentified
And I know that, you know, the scripture says, as a man thinketh, so he is.
But this is my problem.
I have only been here for four years.
I'm almost 50.
And I go places.
I'll tell you what happened one day.
And this is what's made me almost fearful to go out of my house.
And I really want to deal with this or move.
Something has to give.
A friend asked me to take him to a house on Main Street here.
I took him to the house, and I was sitting there in the vehicle waiting for him.
And I looked over to my left, excuse me, to my right, and I noticed that the house next to me was the same backyard that as a child I used to go steal food from because we were abandoned and left and we were starving.
And I was trying to feed my siblings and myself.
It was a bright, beautiful, sunny day.
I jumped out of my vehicle and I thought, oh, I want to check this out.
And I get out and I go to the fence and I tell you, it was like a big, huge, black, horrible cloud came at me and I literally ran to my vehicle and started crying.
And I don't know how to deal with this.
art bell
All right.
Something, in other words, she blocked out seven years, doctor, of an extremely bad experience, it sounds like.
bruce lipton
And a lot of it wasn't even, she wasn't even conscious through most of it anyway.
So a lot of the programs got in there even without any consciousness.
And so it may seem like a blackout and it wasn't even there in the first place.
art bell
It's as though something pierced through and suddenly reminded her of something.
bruce lipton
Stimulus response is the push button.
It's the same kind of thing that some people out there in the audience will know they get a certain smell.
And all of a sudden that smell takes them right back to something early in their life.
That's right.
And the fact is this, is that our experiences are like snapshots, but not just with eyes, but all the senses make a recording at that moment.
The more intense the experience, the more intense even the smell, the sound, the other things that were not the main thing.
But why is that important?
Because it's sort of the body immediately says anything that is threatening of life.
It will learn that and every detail that happened at the same moment becomes part of that image.
So if any other time you come back and find those stimuli come back in the field, it will immediately replay that tape again.
And so that apparently this, whatever was horrible, that was so horrible that when these stimuli came into your field, immediately you had to shut it down because you did this when you were a child as well.
And it was really important in that these are playback programs.
These are the ones that, you know, when people say somebody pushed my buttons, in this case, some place pushed your buttons.
art bell
That's right.
bruce lipton
And immediately played that.
And you've got to get back to that.
And this is the critical point, as I said, that our general belief is like cognitive therapy.
So you go all these years, you hear all the abusive events, replay them all over again every time you hear them.
And now you become consciously aware.
And the issue is, did you change anything in the original subconscious program?
And the answer is no.
And that is why it's not very successful until you go back in and change the program.
A variety of ways to do that.
Energy psychology is the new field of changing it because you're really changing your memories.
And the memories are not in the system.
The memories are in the field, so to speak.
And so that energy psychology rewrites the field.
art bell
Okay, here's one for you.
Doctor, here's one for you.
I lived for 10 years on the island of Okinawa in the Far East, now Japan.
And I remember the instant that I got off the airplane, touched ground at Kadena Air Base on Okinawa, I walked out of the plane, and suddenly, of course, here I am on another continent halfway around the world, or an island in this case.
And I walked off the airplane, and a certain smell hit me.
Not a negative smell, as people might be chuckling or something, but like a whole different world smell.
And I can still recall that, just like yesterday.
And when I recall that smell, I recall the years, the very pleasurable years I loved my time in the Japanese culture.
And that smell is the key for me.
bruce lipton
And these are because, as I said, every memory is really like a holographic snapshot that all your senses are recorded at that moment.
Not just the visual ones, every other one as well.
art bell
Exactly.
All right.
International Line, you're on the air with Dr. Bruce Lipton.
Good morning.
unidentified
Good morning.
Dr. Lipton, I am so glad that you're on the air tonight.
I wanted to talk about I had, or I've worked through it now, but I had dissociative disorder, multiple personalities because I was abused all of my childhood, horrible, horrific abuse.
And I have been diagnosed with lupus In my early 20s, and as I started working through my memories and all, about five years in, when I would go to the doctor, they would say, You don't have that anymore.
And you don't get cured from lupus.
You have a certain antibody that's measured in the blood, and it was always there, and then it wasn't there anymore.
And that's when I had learned that when I was, you know, maybe more one personality, it was there.
And then as I started to integrate.
art bell
Oh, that's incredible.
unidentified
Yeah, as I started to integrate my personalities, it was gone.
art bell
In another personality, it was gone.
Wow.
unidentified
It was gone.
And I don't have it anymore because now I'm more, I'm well.
My personalities are integrated.
I've worked through.
I've gone back and been in therapy and talked about the abuse, brought it all to the front of my mind in my now conscious mind, which was, it's an extremely, extremely difficult thing to do.
And so, but my thing now is what you're talking about, I know in my conscious mind that I am a worthwhile person, that I can function in society,
I can do this, but then I will go, it must be my subconscious mind, and I will go and sabotage myself because for all those years, my parents were telling me, you know, you need to be punished for this.
You need to, you know, you were bad.
You need to, you know, and a lot of it had to do with money in the house.
art bell
All right, well, obviously, doctor, the audience, including this young lady, certainly has been listening intensely to what you've been saying.
She had lupus in one personality.
That changed, and it was no longer there.
How common is this?
Because it certainly centrally supports everything you've been saying.
bruce lipton
It's so common it's hard to explain because it's connected to psychoneuroimmunology.
Immunology is the mechanism from which the lupus is derived.
And in fact, by definition, it's called an autoimmune disease, which means, by definition, self-destructive.
And so that whatever personality you were in, at that personality, that was the one that whatever you were programmed with at that point took away value from your life so that you take away yourself.
And in that process, you're devaluing, like if you heard you weren't worth anything, okay?
If this was the kind of talk that was in the program, then that is the subconscious program.
95% of your daily events come from this program.
Got it.
And that will repeatedly cause you to try to devalue yourself.
And that's where essentially autoimmune diseases come from.
art bell
All right, let's talk about AIDS for a moment.
How would this relate to those afflicted with AIDS?
bruce lipton
And it becomes very important about your belief system about this in regard to if you buy into the guilt trip and you were programmed with the guilt trip, then you find yourself being self-destructive because you see that your character style of life is in complete competition with all the programming that you get, that this is so out of being normal.
Then you have, obviously, now you have this internal conflict where your subconscious mind is observing and saying, my God, this isn't normal.
This isn't even worth being here at some level.
Now, why is this different?
Because other people can get the AIDS virus and make the antibodies and never express the AIDS.
art bell
That's true.
bruce lipton
And they have a whole different mentality about who they are and how they fit.
AIDS is the big one.
I'll give you a simpler one because it's more common to people, and that's like fever blisters.
Fever blisters are due to a herpes virus.
It's a lifelong thing.
You got it.
It's there your whole life.
And interestingly enough, sometimes a person gets it and had it so once.
And then sometimes people get it, and then every month or two it comes back out again.
They got the same virus.
What was causing it to come out?
And the answer is stress.
The herpes virus will not express itself when you're not under stress.
When you're under stress, then the virus will manifest itself.
It's very similar, the same thing with AIDS.
If you're not under that stress, you can have this virus, and it's not going to really destroy you.
But if you are living under the stress, then this conforms to what's called opportunistic organisms.
Every one of us is infected right now.
You can take a blood sample from everybody, and everyone's going to have bacteria and viruses in their own blood, and they're going to say, but Bruce, I don't feel sick, and there's nothing wrong with me, and yet I'm infected.
And the answer is, all of us are infected, but when we're in a state of good mental health, the immune system is encouraged to work.
When we're in stress, the stress hormones shut off the immune system.
And it's not to sabotage you, but usually the stress is not from within, it's from without.
And so the body, to conserve energy to deal with the stress from an outside threat, will shut off things in the body to conserve that energy to mobilize it for the threat.
Well, the immune system is an internal system.
So if you find stress in the world outside, the adrenal hormones, which are the marker of that stress, as they elevate, actually shut off the immune system.
Medical doctors for years used that when patients received a foreign graft or organ and they didn't want the individual to reject the graft, they gave them stress hormones.
And the reason is it reduced the function of that immune system.
So all of us are infected.
When we're in a good state of mind, we're healthy, and you get stressed, as soon as you get stressed and you start to remove the coverage of the immune system, these opportunistic organisms will start to take over, such as the herpes virus.
When you're in a good place, no fever blister.
The moment you get stressed, fever blisters.
art bell
I can hear a lot of people going, yep, that's right.
All right, West of the Rockies, you're on the air with Dr. Lipton.
Hello.
unidentified
Hello.
Glad to speak with you.
bruce lipton
I'm glad to hear you.
unidentified
Yeah, Art, I have a question for you.
With all the mind consciousness experiments in which I participated in, if the doctor had his choice to do an experiment with all of his expertise, what would he choose to do an experiment in using your program touching tens of millions of people to maybe get a verification?
art bell
All right, just as a mental exercise, we can do that, sure.
All right, doctor.
We have, or seemingly have concluded that the power of many minds is indeed a greater power.
I don't know whether you agree with that or not, but the concentration of millions of minds on some manifestation is greater than that of a single mind with respect to world events or the environment or however you would apply it.
And the question was, if you could have your choice to have millions of minds attempt to do something, what would you try?
bruce lipton
Well, my attempt, of course, is to really see that we're going someplace.
As a civilization, we're in a very important state of flux right now.
And we could get there easier, except that there's a lot of resistance from the people in the establishment because it really means an undoing of the power structure and a redistribution of the power back to the individuals, us, in this process.
And that we're going to go through this evolution.
Do we need to struggle and fight?
And the answer is no.
Can we become more conscious?
And that's really what the destination is all about.
whitley strieber
So your wish for the concentration of millions of minds would be to open up consciousness so that people will realize that they are creating their world.
bruce lipton
And as a result, there's a responsibility to make that creation in such a way as to provide for the survival of the planet and ourselves.
So it's like owning responsibility because we are that powerful, as you've demonstrated by collecting that power.
art bell
So you simply want it understood.
Your wish would be for it to be understood universally.
bruce lipton
Absolutely, because the evolution is just an evolution of awareness.
And that's basically what it is.
When we stop long enough one day to recognize, I am not a victim.
I am powerful.
I just have to stop buying the victim mentality and separate myself from the images.
I mean, for example, one of the important ways that I find of surviving and doing very well on this planet is not to participate in everybody else's view of the horror that it is.
It's not horrible.
Except that if you get enough people to believe it is, then that manifestation is real.
I'm looking for this evolution.
It's going to happen.
It could happen easier, but I have a feeling we're going to have to hurt a little bit in the process of learning it.
art bell
I think you're right.
All right.
Hold on, Doctor.
Dr. Bruce Lipton is my guest as we cruise through the night, hopefully with some new understanding this morning.
I can feel that a lot of this hit you right between the eyes this morning.
Didn't it?
I'm Art Bell.

art bell
Aside from just loving ABBA, there's never going to be another ABBA in the world.
I play this every now and then just to validate Phil Henry's parodies of me.
Here's a good one from Dino in Leewood, Kansas, who says, Does the doctor think, because we're so conditioned to think we're going to die at a certain age, that we believe we're going to die at a certain age, that it causes it to happen?
Doctor.
bruce lipton
This is very, very much right on exactly what it's all about.
And even our own collective belief that we live to be 90 as a ripe age is actually turning out to be a great misunderstanding that we probably could live to be easily 140 years or more with our understanding of the new biology, which is important because it said that actually one of the things that's causing us to age the most is our food.
That we're eating ourselves to death.
They found that all long-lived organisms that appeared to be mutants, they wanted to find out what genes were controlling their, what gave them long life.
And it turned out every long-lived organism actually was a defective mutant.
It interfered with their digestion.
And they thought, well, what if you just reduce the food?
And then all of a sudden they found that they started to put these lab animals on absolute minimum starvation diet level.
art bell
Yes.
bruce lipton
Doubled their lifespan.
Because the byproducts of the food, apparently, especially the free radicals, are very destructive of the nervous system.
And that is one of the primary reasons why we go that way.
And then, of course, the secondary reason is when you expect to go.
Because it's a conditioned belief that becomes, remember, we're all these tuning forks.
That you're talking about how does that thought manifest itself when a large number of people get together is because if you get all the tuning forks to be coherent and start playing the same beat in a sense, the number of people that get involved actually cause things to become materialized.
art bell
Doctor, wasn't it the Native Americans who had a and I think there's some Eskimos as well who had a custom that basically when they were going to die, they either went off into the wood as a Native American and just sat for a few hours and then died or launched themselves on an iceberg out into the middle of nowhere and promptly died.
In other words, they had some sort of ritual information.
They knew they were going to die and sure enough.
bruce lipton
Yeah, and it was easy for them as well because they never had a doubt that there was this other side of this life, this transitional phase.
They never had any doubt about the reality of their continued existence in this environmental field.
And of course, when we have doubt about that, then the last thing you really want to do is die because then you'd think, well, that's the end.
And these people, they had no fear of that, and their lives were completely different in that regard.
And look, people who lose loved ones die almost like that themselves.
Many people that lose a loved one will die within a very short time because nothing was wrong with them.
It was just that they just felt that the continuation of life at that point wasn't worth it.
art bell
And so their brain promptly cooperated.
bruce lipton
Yes.
art bell
And yeah, I get it.
bruce lipton
And the cells were obedient.
art bell
Right.
I've got it.
First time caller line, you're on the air with Dr. Lipton.
Good morning.
Hello?
Yes, hello.
unidentified
Yeah, hi.
How are you today?
art bell
Just fine, sir.
unidentified
Hey, thanks very much.
I appreciate the conversation.
There's so much that can be talked about in this fascinating field.
So thank you, Dr. Lipton, for being on the air.
bruce lipton
Well, thanks for listening.
That's even better.
unidentified
Right on.
So I've been sitting here thinking what to ask.
And I kind of am curious about how our behavior is affected by electromagnetic fields right around the body.
In reading and listening to people who talk about chakras that have a tangible effect either within a Newtonian plane or some quantum plane.
So I'm curious, the concept of a spiraling energy, let's say a spiraling energy out of the top of the head, from your framework, how does that affect our behaviors or our beliefs?
And then how would, you know, is it plausible then if we can change with our intent or say passing our hand through the top of our head to change that empty field dynamic and consequently affect our beliefs or behaviors?
bruce lipton
Yeah, this has been a historic perspective that people have always known about their ability to control their behaviors with their beliefs that it was an energy field.
That is also known that from a scientific level, that we also know that external energy fields do influence biology.
art bell
That's where I wanted to go with this.
bruce lipton
There's research for 100 years about electromagnetic fields and pulsing fields, turning cells on and off, their DNA synthesis, RNA, protein synthesis, their differentiation, their cell divisions, their behaviors, neural growth, on and on and on.
Again, a lot of these references are all on my website.
And why is it relevant is because all of these are published in mainstream scientific journals about energy fields influencing the fate of cells.
art bell
All right, doctor, then what about the effect of brutish electromagnetic fields, you know, broadcasting, cellular towers, high-frequency radio, that sort of thing?
What about brutish fields like that?
How do they affect us?
bruce lipton
Well, they found this, is that people are affected by fields based on the amount of stress they're experiencing in their life.
Meaning that as you get more stressed, your own protective field starts to weaken and outside influences are greater so that two people could be in the same field, one of them being affected by the field and the other one completely blocked by it.
And it's the same thing as walking across coals.
It's exactly the same thing, the hot coals.
And that is, if you keep your beliefs strong, you surround yourself with this field that will prevent the heat from burning you.
But if you start walking across and then, you know, a moment, question that belief, the moment you question it, the feel's gone.
art bell
Ouch.
bruce lipton
And then the other thing about people in general health, yes, you know, there are people who say, oh, my God, a cold's coming around.
You know, I could get this cold because now they're open to that belief.
And yet, equally, there are a number of people who see the flu's coming around and say, I will not get this.
I don't have time for this, and I'm not going to get it.
And guess what?
They don't get it.
They don't.
And the same thing applies to doctors.
The fact is, how many doctors come down with the things that their patients have?
The answer is very, very few.
And then you say, well, I've always wondered about that.
Are they different?
Are they biologically different?
The answer is no.
There's a mindset that says, I'm the doctor.
I can't have a sign of my door closed on account of illness.
I mean, it doesn't make sense.
And so their own belief system puts this field up.
And what's this field?
Well, it's an energy field.
And it's like a membrane itself.
It lets things in that you need in and blocks the things that would be detrimental to you.
But when you get stressed, and this is where the science, where the experiments revealed, that, yeah, those fields are out there and they're harmful to some, but not so harmful to others.
And the difference was it wasn't the field then.
It was more or less the status of the individual at that point because then their receptivity of the field.
So it becomes important.
And also, another thing about power, the higher the power, there's always this tendency, well, if a little power doesn't change the cells, what if you cranked up the power and so you could see how fields affect cells?
And it's interesting, it's inverse.
The higher the power in the field, the less the cells pay attention to it.
It's out of their physiological range.
They look at that signal and say, this is not even relevant to biology.
Gotcha.
And so they don't pay attention to it.
It's the subtle ones because they're in the range of that communication level.
So then you start talking about cell phones and that subtle power that's coming in, not the big high-tension Lines over your head.
art bell
I'm so glad to hear that.
bruce lipton
Yeah.
art bell
For a number of reasons.
Wildcard line, you're on the air with Dr. Bruce Lipton.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hi, Dr. Lipton.
Art, hi.
Hi.
Hi.
I was abused emotionally and sexually as a child, and up until now, it's my birthday.
I'm 24.
I've dealt with a whole slew of things, self-mutilation, drug abuse, suicide attempts.
And now I have fibromyalgia and something called vulvidinia, which is basically pain in the vulvular area.
And my question is, how do I deprogram my subconsciousness to stop beating myself up just constantly or stop hating myself?
art bell
Yeah, she's right on the money.
bruce lipton
Okay, and this is exactly the issues that we were talking about.
These beliefs are in your subconscious, and everything you talked about was a response to a threat on your life as well as a devaluation you felt for your own life.
So every one of those, the manifestation, which says the original program that you got during this abuse is running on your own.
art bell
Yeah, that's clear, Doctor.
How does she stop it?
bruce lipton
Well, there's a way of doing it.
It's through energy psychology.
There's a link on my website to a process called Psych K. That's one of the number of them.
So basically, what it is, is a process where you identify the belief.
You don't have to go back and experience it.
You just have to say, what is keeping me from going forward?
And then you check your system to see, does it offer you a belief that you can get out of this or not?
I mean, you have to find what's your belief.
We already know where yours is in this point.
It's still at this other level, this destructive belief.
So then, in the energy psychology process, like part of the psyche is you get into a brain balanced state, which is a physical posture.
It's part of brain gym MLP stuff.
When you get into that, you get a balance of your right and left hemispheres.
And because on our day-to-day lives, we're either in our right or our left.
It sort of goes back and forth during the day.
art bell
I'm not clear on this, how this is achieved.
Is it a process of No, no, this can occur in about a five-minute process.
It's a five-minute process.
bruce lipton
Yes, you identify the belief you want to change.
You get into the whole brain position, which encourages both hemispheres to be synchronized.
That opens up what is called an opportunity like super learning.
That is what the characteristic of superlearning.
You get both hemispheres operating at the same time, and then you put in a positive statement while you're in the super learning state.
And you can actually hear noise in your head because your entire experiential database is like conflicting, saying this statement you're making doesn't conform to what we say.
And at some point, within a few minutes of repeating this statement while in a whole brain posture super learning state, you actually rewrite these files and they're eliminated because there's a point where you can actually feel the statement you're putting in has zero resistance.
It's a physiological feeling.
You can feel it.
And at that moment, what you've done in a super learning state is take thousands of files of experience and rewrite the perception.
art bell
And so you've rewritten your own program.
bruce lipton
You've rewritten your program, and it's not doing it through talking to the subconscious.
It has nothing to do with that.
And in a sense, you first have to get into the brain-balanced state.
That's like pushing a record button.
Because when we learn our experiences, those early ones, especially, we are in a brain-balanced state.
So every experience has both like a logical component and an emotional component.
If you then get older, and after you get out of that childhood age, you don't really stay in a brain-balanced state.
You're either in the emotional side or the logic side.
Well, here's the point.
Try to adjust, you know, if you're in the logic side of your brain and you're trying to change a program, you haven't dealt with the emotional side of it because that's not operating now.
And vice versa.
If you're in the emotional side, then the logical things, what happened, don't make sense.
And the issue is brain balance opens up a window which leads to a status that's similar to super learning.
And you actually can download a belief that will rewrite a database.
And it usually takes about five minutes for each particular belief statement that you need to correct about the value of your life and who you really are, the divinity within you, which has been beaten out of you in that sense.
art bell
That's amazing.
All right.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with Dr. Lipton.
unidentified
Hi.
Good morning, guys.
I want to wish you both health and happiness.
art bell
Thank you.
bruce lipton
Appreciate it.
unidentified
Thanks.
Dr. Bruce, you mentioned three words earlier, quantum mechanical fields.
bruce lipton
Yes.
unidentified
And it's funny because that introduces a trinity into science that, you know, quantum physics is the physical, mechanical, technological, and fields is basically the variable.
bruce lipton
Yes.
unidentified
Now, science is starting to be seen as the new basic religion, which is a trinity unto itself, being biological, chemistry, and philosophy.
But it does break down into two things, being biological versus technological, the same way that the ultimate holy trilogy comes down to Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, blah, blah, blah.
But it comes down to right and wrong.
Okay, I didn't mean to go there.
But as far as nanotechnology goes, it's kind of a catch-22, isn't it?
Who do you see winning out?
Because you need nanotechnology to go ahead and get in there and influence cells, yet at the same time, can the cells overcome any nanotechnology that might be tapped into or hacked into?
bruce lipton
Well, what's the nanotechnology part that you're referring to that's required?
unidentified
As far as diseases, as far as what has been propagated on this show even, especially through George's show for nanotechnology, from what they can do for diseases or the cells themselves, does consciousness win out or does technology win out?
bruce lipton
The significance of the way I would look at it is that consciousness does because the genetic system is highly adaptive and it also does improvisation.
In other words, the genetic system isn't controlling us, but the organism is adjusting its genes to conform and survive in its environment.
So You can start by giving bacteria penicillin, and you kill most of them.
Guess what?
Some of them in there start to read that penicillin, change their genetic structure, and as a result, create a protein that is displayed on the surface of the cell, like an antibody that blocks the penicillin.
And then the intelligence goes one step further, and it says after it can block this penicillin, it can grab it and block it, it learns how to take the same molecule and break the penicillin.
So after a short time, those bacteria that are first resistant then learn to eat it.
And all this says, what?
It's like, well, the technology, you could put something in the field, but guess what?
Over a period of time, the intelligence of the system can control its environment and change its genetics to create what it needs to adapt and survive in an environment.
And that's essentially how we got here.
And the belief that it was Darwinian, that this was accident, in recent science, which is the stuff described in the book.
The recent science says, no, there are actual mechanisms that cells have to generate variation in their genes when they find stress, because the only way out is to change the system.
art bell
Well, that's really rushing the process of evolution right along, isn't it?
bruce lipton
And that's why there have been mass extinctions, and in the briefest of time in regard to evolution, all new species came out.
It's like, and where'd they come from?
If it didn't come from Darwinian theory, it would have taken extra millions of years for them to show up.
They show up in hundreds of thousands of years, not millions of years.
It said, no, organisms are these devices, they're cells, that they are adaptable.
They get into an environment.
They read that environment.
They adjust their biology to manifest a complement to that environment.
And then, of course, it's the part where they read the environment when you translate that to humans.
So do we read the environment, but then we also get teachers.
And so that we buy these interpretations of the environment that we never even experienced.
And we buy them from others, and then they become real as if we created them ourselves.
art bell
All right.
Your book, The Biology of Belief, when is everybody going to be able to get it?
bruce lipton
It's available all the time.
It's on Amazon.
art bell
All right.
What about this first chapter?
When are you going to put that up?
bruce lipton
That's on the website right now.
art bell
Oh, you've already got it there.
bruce lipton
You can go on the website.
There's the belief book.
It says book site information.
Click on that, and you'll get all the details of the book.
And for those on this show that buy the book, actually, when they click on the website, BruceLipton.com, there's also a free gift.
If you buy a book from this show, you'll get a chapter from a wonderful book called Healing Yourself, Healing the Planet, an important insight into the fact that we are indeed on an evolutionary track right now that is going to cause something to happen in the next few years.
And those people that are aware with consciousness are going to be able to get through this.
And those people that are not acting with consciousness, they're going to be lost.
And it's just going to be like a very strange world coming up.
It's kind of strange every day now, actually.
art bell
Boy, you're not kidding.
bruce lipton
Yeah, and we are on a destination.
We are, in fact, leaving behind a reptilian society and acquiring a mammalian society.
And that is the difference is a reptilian society is run by dinosaurs, big corporations, with little awareness, and they think with a reptilian consciousness.
So like Ike's reptilian people, they're there, not in reptile form.
They're there in consciousness, meaning that they're doing things today without ever thinking about what this means to our planet tomorrow.
art bell
All right, and on that note, we've got to go.
We're out of time.
bruce lipton
Oh, I'm so sorry.
art bell
It's been an absolute pleasure.
What a classic show you've done.
Doctor, thank you.
bruce lipton
Thank you so much, Ark.
art bell
Good night, my friend.
All right, there he is.
Dr. Bruce Lipton, that was quite a program, perhaps a classic.
That's it for tonight.
We'll see you tomorrow night as, believe me, a classic weekend continues.
I'm Mark Bell.
Good night.

Good night in the desert, shooting stars across the sky.
It's magical day.
The desert's on our eyes.
Filled with belonging, searching for the truth.
But we make it to tomorrow for the sun to shine on you.
