The NDE Hustle
The Night of … 1622
In 1982 I was in the US Military. I was out in the field, under a lot of pressure, which I had heretofore managed professionally. Or so I thought. I felt this sensation come over me. The body started shivering. Not cold shivering. I didn’t feel cold. Not afraid shivering. I’d trained for this. The catch all description is “weird.” I fought it off. I beat it! But not for the reasons one might think. The command was out to get me and I wasn’t going to give them the satisfaction of going down in the field, especially without a physical wound.
Death came for me that day, but I wasn’t ready to go. This was my “Near Death Experience!”
This is a true story. What’s been added, is the element of that feeling being “death.” I didn’t feel like I was going to die. Not at that moment. But it’s a good story in this era of Near Death Experiences for Fun & Profit & Propaganda.
NDE’s these days are like alien abduction stories. Everybody’s got one of them, and they have a podcast and they have a book. Some people have had books out before the NDE craze emerged, so they have to frame these ghost stories, as dis-covered memories, or some things they haven’t talked about before, when what these tales really are [through the filter of our cynicism] is relevance-signaling.
Some of the same scalawags that emerged to tout the now discredited “New Age” and later the Ancient Alien craze are now “warning” against Transhumanism, and they are using NDE’s to “legitimize,” their information – as if they have this connection to the other world because they almost died.
This one guy – I can confidently state that he’s fulla shyt, (IMHO). Not because his information is incorrect; there’s stuff on that metaphysical level that’s absolutely true and works for the individual, but is complete malarkey to others, so that aspect of his rap is up to the discernment of the individual. This particular speaker is on a level of BS because for the past twenty years, (yes I’ve been casually monitoring him for that long) he’s been behind the trend on the topics he’s been speaking about. Today he’s got to hustle guest spots on little known podcasts to talk about topics that “more credible” citizen journalists, and “truther” podcasters have been discussing and presenting for the entirety of this young adult century.
This is one of the few acts that gets under the skin of your normally very chill scribe. As demonstrated in the opening recollection, most of us can come up with a near death story.
We have this concept, once again lifted from the Matrix, of “The Splinter in the Mind.” We identify the splinter as an idea, or some conceptual injection that we’ve been programmed with our whole lives that we cannot extract. The idea of aging and “natural causes” is such a splinter. We are actively working to reprogram the simulation.
The reason We brought this up is because of our position in the chronology of our current existence. We’ve been recalling episodes and adventures when we could have died, but didn’t. When you really delve deep into “near misses” and encounters that for some reason of the other favored us with survival, you can make up a whole lot of stories. Add some embellishment, and some familiar anecdotes, such as meeting an ancestor on the astral plane, talking to the bug in hyperspace, walking into the light, or meeting an ascended master, and you can talk about a popular fringe subject with little more than reading the blogs of those who’ve been monitoring it all of their lives. In a way it’s a confidence game. But even con artists have to make a living. And to do so they must adapt to the times. So what if the books they wrote thirty years ago with predictions what would happen twenty years in the future, [which is now ten years ago – follow?] – never came true, never came close to coming true, and have been so thoroughly debunked that those predictions have become jokes? [Y2K bug, 2012 Transit of Venus, Mayan calendar ending, End of the World, return of Planet Nibiru.] They just grab on to the next vine and start swinging.
This ilk, a lot of whom were snatched up by Gaia TV, are about as reliable and honest as CNN. (We don’t call out folks in our essays, but if you send a message I’ll share a list of some of these jokers.)
Post die-off eras are very popular for increased interest in the afterlife. The fascination never really vanishes, but it subsides now and then, until there’s another war, usually. The Covid op was like a war. It had the restrictions, the quasi-rationing and the body count. Right on time here come the Near Death Experiencers/Influencers with their books & podcasts about their experiences, lessons learned and warnings for the “people of Earth.” By the way, these are the same warnings that were issued by wise aliens in Space Invasion sci-fi flicks from the 1950s.
“Get your shyt together humans, or you’ll be exterminated.”
Which incidentally, probably started in Before-Christ times with the story of Atlantis, Sodom and Gomorrah, and who knows how many more such stories that didn’t survive the “Flood of Noah.”
These tactics vex Us, but also fascinate Us. We know humans are gullible, violent, and not very smart. But there’s a spectrum. On the low vibration end of the spectrum are those humans that can be controlled by low frequencies like hate & fear, guilt and the emotions that dark psychologists use to sell books and get laid.
Then there are those who vibrate slightly higher. These types are split into sub-groups. There are the manipulators themselves. Then, there are those who attempt to warn and educate the herd about mental manipulation, how it works and is used against them and that manipulators exist. And then there are those who don’t really give a “feark” and watch the show. They [We] will occasionally write an article or record a video, which will be thoroughly ignored, or get Us labeled as “haters” by BOTH SIDES!
It’s better, in America, not to be smart, (aware, awake, hip, etc.). And if you can’t help gathering and retaining, analyzing and discerning information, don’t let anybody know. Keep it to yourself. If you know a flood is coming, build your ark. If you believe some shyt is about to go down, do everything you can imagine to survive that shyt. Just don’t tell. Because one way or the other the crowd will bring you down.
You’ll get a knock on your door. It’s nondescript men in black.
“We hear you’re building on your property. We’ve had some concerns from your neighbors. Complaints about power tools. Can we come in and talk to you?”
Hell nawww!
Do you remember the Chris Rock piece about slaves having to pretend they were “dumb” or be killed? That’s what we’re talking about. Keep your “intel” close to the vest. Slow burn & under cover. And if you never need to use it, so much the better.
That’s it for today folks. Thanks. Enjoy your vacations.
