Time Text
Hello, my name is Sarah Jane Smith and I'm a quantum healing hypnosis practitioner.
This technique achieves the deepest possible level of hypnosis.
This unique way of hypnosis is a very powerful tool which can help people with mental, emotional and physical trauma.
This therapy is so powerful that all you need is one session.
You can get answers to all of your life questions.
First, we'll get an understanding of what caused the issue so that healing can begin.
Expand your consciousness and remember who you truly are.
Are you ready to unlock the potential of your soul and free your mind?
I'm out.
I'm out.
Now, I'm going to be a bit controversial this week, which is not like me.
Controversial in the area of religion.
And I'm not just talking about the Christian religion.
I'm talking about all of them.
Islam, Hinduism, all these different religions.
And I have noticed that In terms of Christianity, how very much more prevalent in the last year, two years, particularly during the Trump campaign, the Christian religion has become.
It's always been part of right-wing politics, particularly in America, but it's really become so much more center stage.
My own research over the years, the decades, has Has led me to a rather controversial, yes, conclusion.
And that is that religions are worshipping a God that's not the God they think they're worshipping.
What do I mean by that?
Over the years, as I've detailed at length and in detail in the books, I've concluded that this reality is a simulation.
A very advanced version of a virtual reality computer game.
And if you look at how people react when they put a headset on and how their sense of reality is immediately overwhelmed, you see them in these compilations on the internet,
videos where, you know, people put the headset on and suddenly they're screaming and shouting and running and falling off their chair, whatever, because The information that they're being fed, that their brain is being fed, has overridden the reality that they would normally experience and that their brain would normally decode, because that's what it's doing.
It's decoding this simulation, which is a...
A construct of information.
Just like you get Wi-Fi, and you've got all that information, the information from the whole of the internet in the Wi-Fi field, And then you get a computer, and it decodes the information and the Wi-Fi field into a totally different expression, version on the screen.
So when people say, you know, what's the internet?
Oh, it's graphics, and it's moving pictures, and it's words, and it's all that.
Yes, it is, but only on the screen.
Everywhere else, it's a radiation information field and electronic circuits.
So, I go into all this at length in the books, but the point is, as some mainstream scientists have increasingly pointed out, it does look like this is a simulation, and in that case, it's not natural.
Something has created it.
Now, If you talk to the advocates of Christianity, they will say that God, and other religions too, that God created this reality, God created this world.
Well, something did, but was it the God that they think they're worshipping?
If it is, why is it such a shite house for so many people?
Why is there so much suffering, so much deprivation, so much fear, so much war, so much violence?
In short, so much suffering.
And I wonder...
If people think a loving God is described, for instance, in the Old Testament.
I found this article on the internet in a Christian source.
Why does God command so much killing people?
In the Old Testament, does God condone violence?
And it says God's commands to kill others in the Old Testament are amongst the most difficult for people to comprehend.
You're not kidding.
Why would God demand the Israelites to kill entire groups of people?
Why did God at times approve of genocide?
Hmm...
Do you think God still approves of it?
Do you think the approval of it sounds like the loving God That the religions think they're worshipping?
Or does it sound like a psychopathic tyrant which created this simulation as a trap, a perceptual trap for humanity so that it can control us by controlling our perception of reality, making us think we're in a certain world created by a loving God when we're in anything but.
And So the article says, God had promised the Israelites they would be victorious and live in the land of Israel.
To do so included defeating the already violent nations living in that land.
Okay, so there's loving God's cop-out.
He only condones violence because he promised the Israelites that they could go there and live there.
And the only way for that to happen was the Israelites destroyed who lived there already.
Or in reverse in 1948, shall we say.
So these are the cop-outs.
It's like Donald Trump, another god to so many people, who is picking all these people for his government after January.
And his supporters are going, oh, hold on a second, why has he picked them?
They're not in line with what he said he would do.
But then others say, oh yeah, but it's just part of the plan, you know, trust the plan.
So trust the plan.
God doesn't really condone violence, just that his creation is full of it.
And the Old Testament God demands it.
It goes on, in the defeat of an opponent in war during ancient times, the conquering side had to deal with the inevitable issue of the survivors.
It gets better.
Stay with me.
Would they keep surviving soldiers, women and children alive and make them servants or was it better to completely destroy the opposing force?
Well, I mean, God, a loving God, destroy them.
Apparently, due to both the violent nature of the Canaanites and neighboring groups, as well as their worship of other gods, ooh, no, mustn't do that, the Lord declared these enemies were to be completely destroyed.
Oh, so that explains it then.
Oh, yeah.
Don't listen to me.
A loving God created this place.
Proof.
So, here's some biblical quotes from Samuel.
This is what the Lord Almighty says.
I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt.
Now, Attack!
Go, Amalekites, and totally destroy all that belongs to them.
Do not spare them.
Put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.
See, there was even politicians in those days.
And so...
Maybe people who are not completely mesmerized by religion might understand why it's my contention that the religions are worshipping the creator,
quote, God, fake God, false God, That created this simulated perceptual trap and not the loving God that they believed and believe they are.
So what I'm saying is this, very controversial, that...
What is described in the Old Testament as God, I'm concentrating on the Old Testament because it's blatant, but I'm talking about the religious God in general.
The God of the Old Testament and what is called in the Bible Satan are actually the same thing.
They're just different expressions of the same force.
One, you oppose, because that's bad, Satan.
And the other expression of the same force, you worship.
And in praying to this God, and believing in this God, you are making an energetic connection to that God.
To that force.
And there's a great phrase that says, energy flows where attention goes.
And when you focus on something, even if you focus on it because you're being manipulated to do so, you're making an energetic, that focus makes an energetic connection.
And it can basically vampire your energy and certainly control your energy.
Perceptions.
So this Old Testament God apparently is very jealous.
You shall not worship them or serve them, for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and fourth generations of those who hate me.
And...
Deuteronomy.
I'll finish with this one.
For the Lord your God in the midst of you is a jealous God.
Otherwise the anger of the Lord your God will be kindled against you and he will wipe you off the face of the earth.
Nice man.
The idea that's...
A loving God is ludicrous.
But once you fall for the idea that this, what I would say is a perceptual trap, Once you fall for the fact that this is the creation of a loving God, then the contradictions have to start being explained.
The contradiction between the preacher of love and the demander of slaughter.
You've got people like Netanyahu today still quoting the angry, jealous, violent Old Testament God to justify what's happening in Gaza.
And what I'm seeing, interestingly, is...
More and more people in the Christian arena are starting to realize that scientific research is revealing more and more evidence that this reality was not Or did not emerge naturally.
That we didn't start in some primordial soup and then suddenly become ethyl on the checkout and build down the call center.
The evidence is overwhelming that this reality was created.
And you've only got to look at the constant recurring codes in the fabric of the reality that correspond with the codes in a computer program and a Wi-Fi AI program to see that this Is not a natural occurrence.
And there are...
Like I say, scientists now, more and more, who are starting to look at this and say, actually, it does look like it's a simulation.
And once you realize that, so many things that appear to be mysteries suddenly kind of disappear and make sense.
And what the scientists are saying, obviously, is if this is a construct, then...
It's not natural.
Some thing, some intelligence created it.
Now, the question is, what?
And when you look at the state of the world, not just now, but throughout what we call history, then it doesn't appear, shall we say,
making the understatement of eternity, To be the work of a loving God, but the work of a psychopathic tyrant, just like the one described in the Old Testament, funnily enough, and other versions of that God in other...
But what I'm seeing is that more Christian advocates are saying, look, look at all these codes that are being found.
Look at DNA, etc.
And it's proof that our God, the Christian God, created this place.
No, it's not.
It's proof that it was created.
It was not proof of what created it.
And I saw this video on the internet this week by Ken Ham.
He's the CEO and former founder of Answers in Genesis.
And he's talking about, for instance, DNA... And the fact that this is becoming more obvious as an information construct is proof that the Christian God created this reality.
It isn't.
But that's his view.
If you don't believe in God, you're without excuse because it's so obvious there's a God.
God has made it evident to all that He is the Creator.
Where has He made it evident to all?
Well, we can see it's evident to all just in the creation.
You know that if you find an Indian arrowhead in a cave, archaeologists will immediately say, oh, Intelligence has been here.
They carved this Indian arrowhead.
But then you point to DNA, which is the most complex information system, language system in the entire universe that makes up our chromosomes, our genes, all the information that builds a human or a dog or a cat or whatever, and secularists, secular scientists will say, oh, chance, chance, chance.
We all evolved by natural processes.
You know, it doesn't make any sense.
And in fact, DNA was first discovered in 1953 by Watson and Crick, two British scientists who were atheists, who said they wanted to prove to the world there was no God.
And then they discovered the molecule of heredity, DNA, and then they said, see, we can show you there's no God because life is just built on chemistry.
But we found that DNA is not just chemistry.
You know what DNA is?
It's like a complex...
You see, life is built on information.
Do you know how much information there is in living systems on this planet?
It's not billions.
It's not trillions.
It's actually zillions of bits of information.
And you know what?
You've got to have a language to read the information.
Do you know DNA not only has an incredible amount of information in it, But it also has the information to make a language to read the information.
If you're going to read a book and it's in Russian, you need to know the Russian code or language or you can't read it.
Well, DNA has to have a code to read it.
You know what we know from science?
Codes never come from matter by themselves.
Matter can't produce a code.
It's impossible.
In fact, when we...
Are writing programs for computers, you wouldn't want that to be subject to random processes because it won't work.
You have to put all this intelligence into it to make the code work.
And we also know that matter never produces information.
We've never seen matter produce one bit of information, but there's zillions of bits of information in living things.
And so it's very obvious that when you look at DNA, it's shouting out to us, in the beginning, God created.
There's no way DNA could come about by chance, random processes.
So if we look at some of the things that Ken said there, that this reality, DNA, etc., was not created by chance, random processes.
It couldn't be.
No, it couldn't.
But it doesn't mean the Christian God created it.
Maybe the Christian God did create it, it's just that Christians are worshipping a version of God that's not actually the one they're worshipping.
He talks about complex information systems being what this reality is.
Life is about or based on information.
Well, if people look at my books from decades ago, that's exactly what I've said this construct is.
It's an information construct.
It's like a Wi-Fi field of information and through the body, brain, we are decoding it into this reality we think is external to us when it's all going on in here.
And this is the whole foundation of the conspiracy of human control.
It's not just the deep state.
If you stop at the deep state, that's fine.
That's fine for the cult.
Because you've got so far and stopped.
It's the deep state.
So what is the deep state an expression of?
Because that's all it is.
It's an expression of something else.
And that something else is the force that created this fake reality we call the human world.
This virtual reality reality.
And he talks about that matter can't produce a code.
Okay, but humans can produce codes.
That's what you've got all over this computerized system we're living in now.
So you don't need a loving God to create a code.
You just have to know how codes are created.
And talking of the alternative media, or what I say is the hijacked part of the alternative media, you've had Russell Brand convert to Christianity.
And he was baptized in the River Thames.
And he's become kind of an evangelical figure now, promoting Christianity and promoting the worship of the Christian God and Jesus.
And he...
He's making lots of videos about different aspects of Christianity and what have you.
And, you see, this is what happens when you perceive that a loving God has created this reality of pain and suffering...
You have to somehow square that circle.
So what you do is you say, oh, well, all the pain and suffering, that's what God wants, because then we'll get closer to God and we'll learn.
And then you've got the reincarnation version of that in the Eastern religions that say we have to keep coming back into the human world to suffer, to...
To learn lessons to evolve.
It's all different repackaging of the same basic thing.
So here's Russell Brand in one of his videos, thanking God for the pain and suffering.
Happy Thanksgiving, glorious American brothers and sisters.
Thank you, Lord, that we get to live this life one day at a time in your grace and by your grace.
Thank you, Lord, for the limitless cosmos.
Thank you for the phenomena of consciousness that may precede all material reality.
Thank you, God, for the gift of family.
Thank you, God, for the gift of being alone, that we may contemplate and understand the world more deeply and love you more.
Thank you for the material abundance that flows forth from nature, and thank you, Heavenly Father, that sometimes it feels like we have nothing.
Thank you for pain and suffering, Lord, that it brings us closer to you, that we can understand your suffering better.
Thank you for the pain and suffering, Lord.
I don't think thanks are really appropriate, because this is a world of Pain and suffering, because that is what the psychopathic force that created this fake reality wants to impose on humanity for reasons that I explain at length in the books.
And so you have this fundamental schismatic contradiction that Between worshipping a loving God who you say created this reality and the endless shite that people go through in this reality.
And so you are trying to square that circle.
And often if you listen to explanations, they disappear up their own backside trying to make sense of it.
But if you realize that a very negative psychopathic force created this reality, what Christians call Satan,
what Islam calls Shaitan, and others call different names around the world, then what happens here is Starts to make absolute sense.
And if you are looking for explanations for what is actually unexplainable, unless the penny drops, then you start talking about whether there are signs that things are about to get better.
Signs that maybe God is making things better.
And what you're looking at is simply another phase of human control, which is what the Trump-Musk means.
Fairground is all about.
So here's Russell again, asking people if they can see, as would seem that he can, the shoots of things getting better.
Perhaps we will consider ourselves most fortunate to be alive at this time, even though it's been crazy for a while and has felt punitive, punishing, painful, the penitentiary of living here in exile, in the havoc of the material world, leading us always towards individualism.
Breaking down the structures of civilization, the molecules of family, into the singular atom of the individual so that we don't become a church in his name.
That's what it seems like, you know, when the diabolical state replaces the Lord as the center and apex of our lives.
Check this from Peter.
For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God.
Are we being continually called to bring to the forefront of our consciousness, our lives and our practices, the awareness of the spiritual realm so that we don't get deluged, and I use the word deliberately, in that which happens down here.
I'm thinking of the flood and I'm thinking of the floods that we live within and that we live through, even though now There are signs of a new olive branch, of a new peace offering, of real change.
Let me know how you're bearing up under suffering, and let me know if you too see glimmers of hope and positivity emerging in his name.
You see, what you've got is the material Being basically condemned there and the effects of the material.
But at the same time, you're saying the material world was created by this loving God.
Why?
If it creates such havoc for humanity psychologically and, quote, Physically.
He talks about signs of a new olive branch, a new peace offering of real change.
What he's talking about is Donald Trump and Elon Musk, obviously.
But we're going to see after January, as we're seeing now, if you're paying attention, that it's not about real change.
It's not about change at all in terms of Benefit to humans.
It's about just another phase of human control pushing on the AI agenda until human thought and human emotional reaction is dictated by AI through a human AI fusion.
And so it's like you don't look for Ways that the world can be turned into a paradise.
Because it's been created not to be a paradise.
That's the whole point of this reality.
And thus, we can do our best to make things as good and better as we can.
But in the knowledge that the very reason this reality was created was as a trap for human perception and a trap for Well, human control, consciousness control manifesting as a human.
And another thing that has...
I mean, since I was a little kid, I've thought about this.
Why would a loving God create the natural world, quote, when it's a killing field?
It's alright saying, oh, nature's wonderful.
You know, nature's beautiful on that level.
I see that.
Or as beautiful as we can comprehend in this reality.
But the natural world is a killing field.
Everything survives by something else not surviving.
Why would a loving God set it up like that?
Now, I could show you horrific videos of the killing field and why animals are constantly looking for predators in fear of the consequences.
But I won't, because what's the point?
We know.
But here's a video I saw this week of a lion, and the words with the video said this, He has run his race, protected his pride, defended his territory, and passed on his pool of strong genes.
Now it's time for him to surrender his reins for the young to continue his legacy.
Is that what we're here for?
Loving God.
To pass on our genes.
To live a brief period.
And overwhelmingly, in terms of humans and so many animals, suffer the consequences of this reality.
Is that really, loving God, what this is all about?
Why is nature a killing thing?
Now, if you had a force which, as I strongly suggest, feeds off Human low vibrational energy, the energy that's generated by fear,
anxiety, regret, hatred, and all these emotions, then suddenly it all makes sense.
Because when people are suffering, when people are fearful, when animals are suffering, when animals are fearful, They're generating this energy, which is, I point out with enormous evidence in the books, this force feeds off low vibrational human energy.
So when...
The Morpheus character in The Matrix held up a battery and said, The Matrix is a computer-generated dream world designed to turn humans into one of these.
He was speaking a profound truth in an apparently fictional movie.
And, of course, there's something else.
That makes me question all this stuff.
And that is the fact that we are supposed to get on our knees to what we perceive as God.
You know, you've got people in the so-called alternative media who are saying, oh, people must stand up, people must wake up, people must stand up to authority and tyranny.
But at the same time, they say, but you've got to get on your knees to Jesus.
Why?
They quote this biblical claim about bowing to Jesus.
Every knee shall bow to me.
Why?
We are all an expression of infinite awareness, having a brief human experience in this trap.
Believing we are Ethel on the checkout and Bill in the call center and being controlled through our sense of limitation as a result.
And now we've got to get on our knees.
What loving God wants humans or anyone on their knees?
In homage.
The creator of the Matrix, Mike, though.
This is Russell Brand again, on his knees, at a Tucker Carlson event.
I pray in your name that the forthcoming election be an opportunity for unity for America and for Americans, for forgiveness and for grace.
That the dark and demonic forces that appear to operate at the level of the state, the deep state, and the corporate and global world experience your light, Lord, that we are guided, that you guide all of our tongues and all of our words and all of our hearts, that we feel your forgiveness and that we feel your grace.
Thank you, Lord, for the many gifts that you've bestowed upon us.
Thank you for the glory of consciousness itself in which we can experience you and live you.
Thank you for the beauty of nature in which we see your wisdom and your creativity and your infinite glory.
Thank you, Lord, for the many leaders.
And thank you, Lord, that you were born and died, that we may be forgiven and that we may have eternal life, not through merit or anything that we have individually achieved, for surely all of us are fallen, but in your holy name.
We are forgiven by your act of redemption, by your sacrifice.
I wrote a book once called Human Race, Get Off Your Knees.
We have been on our knees throughout known human history.
And the religious gods that different people have Worship.
Demand that we get on our knees to them.
That should be a red flag and bright red flashing lights alone.
This is not a time to get on our knees.
This is a time to get off them.
It was always a time to get off them.
But religion wants us down there.
And our controllers up there.
So, one thing I've never understood is why a man had to die horrifically...
On a cross, according to the biblical story, to have God, loving God, forgive the sins of humanity.
Sorry, I can't get cause and effect there.
And I can't see how a loving God would want to sacrifice his only begotten son...
So that humans could be forgiven of their sins.
To me, it makes no sense.
And Russell there, on his knees on that stage, talks about demonic forces.
Well, how about, Russell, demonic forces are what created this, quote, place.
And that's why it is what it is.
And like I say, I'm not just talking about Christianity.
I'm talking about all of them.
And it's worth pondering on this sobering thought that we're supposed to have 8 billion people on the planet.
I don't know who counts them, but that's what they say.
And It's estimated that 5.4 billion of the 8 billion identify either as Christian, Muslim, or Hindu.
So religion and the focus upon religion is a phenomenal weapon, in my view, Of how vast numbers of people are controlled and are limited.
Because once you accept a religious story, belief system, and it is unquestionable,
this is how it is, You deny yourself vast, vast areas of potential knowledge, awareness, research, investigation, enlightenment.
All those areas that you will not go into...
Because if you do, your religious belief system comes under threat.
So what you do instead is you say if you go into those areas, that's blaspheming.
The idea that we are an expression of infinite awareness is blaspheming.
Because they don't want you going into those areas.
They want you in a belief system corral, which they circle the wagons around and tell you that's all you need to know.
And if you've got questions and they can't be answered without going into these other areas, then it's because God doesn't want you to know the answers.
And now...
We've had a guy this week in the British Parliament who is demanding, in effect, blasphemy laws.
It's a bloke called Tahir Ali, a Labour Party MP in the Starmer government.
And this is what he said in Parliament this week.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
November marks Islamophobia Awareness Month.
Last year, the United Nations Human Rights Council adopted a resolution condemning the desecration of religious texts, including the Quran, despite opposition from the previous government.
Acts of such mindless desecration only serve to fuel division and hatred within our society.
Will the Prime Minister commit to introducing measures to prohibit the desecration of all religious texts and the profits of the Abrahamic religions?
And in his reply, Keir Starmer did not rule out laws relating to blasphemy.
And what is blasphemy in effect?
What is it?
It's a defense mechanism to stop the legitimate questioning of religious belief.
Not to say you can't have that belief, you should not have it.
But to say, if you're going to keep putting out That this is how things are, and this is what people must believe, then it's everyone else's right to give another opinion.
And if you are so convinced that your religious belief is right, you won't mind that at all.
You'll be quite happy to be challenged because you'll have the answers.
Those that don't want to be challenged are those that fear they don't have the answers and that their belief system will not stand up to proper scrutiny.
I have perceptions of reality which evolve because I'm Aware of a very obvious truth that whatever we think we know, there's always more to know.
But I don't care how much I'm challenged.
I don't care how much I'm abused.
I don't care how much I'm ridiculed.
It's of no importance to me.
People must have a right to have the opinion they want.
So why don't I want...
Laws to stop criticism of me, because it's nonsense, and so are blasphemy laws.
And putting it all together kind of brings me to something I wrote in the books a very long time ago, back in the 1990s, that religion is the greatest form of mind control ever invented.
And I say that because once your religious belief solidifies into non-questioning, the rest of the world, with all its potential for knowledge and insight, awareness, discovery, is somewhere you must not go.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how we got here.
So, very controversial start this week.
I'm sure the abuse will ensue, and I don't care.
I have that view, and I have a right to it, as everyone has a right to their view.
So, if you want to see the rest of the Dot Connector this week, then go to iconic.com after 7 o'clock on Friday evening, and I'll be there.
Still waffling on.
