00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.580
Have you ever heard of that phrase, follow your dreams, and then you have that dream of, I don't know, riding a unicorn made out of marshmallows and you're riding off into the sunset.

00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:12.900
And then you wake up and think, what the heck was that?

00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:23.789
Now we've had episodes in the past where we talk about dreams, but today our special guest has been analyzing and taking notes of his dreams for over 35 years.

00:00:24.179 --> 00:00:24.760
Yes.

00:00:25.129 --> 00:00:27.969
And we're going to unpack his journey of exploration.

00:00:28.269 --> 00:00:29.109
And why would you?

00:00:29.625 --> 00:00:33.424
Stick with writing down your dreams and what has that done for you?

00:00:33.825 --> 00:00:35.225
Now, who's our guest?

So today we're going to be, yes, talking about his take on dreams, but more importantly, we're going to talk about, how his journey started, where he had a dream about a phone number, woke up, called that phone number, and then some wild stuff happened and we're going to unpack that.

00:01:03.781 --> 00:01:04.572

Now, with that said, let's get to the show.

00:01:41.472 --> 00:01:44.832
All right, Stephen A.

00:01:44.873 --> 00:01:46.552
Ross, welcome to the show.

00:01:46.552 --> 00:01:47.352
I'm excited.

00:01:47.382 --> 00:01:48.793
How are you, my friend?

00:01:49.362 --> 00:01:50.893
Thank you very much, John.

00:01:50.933 --> 00:01:55.722
It's a sunny, beautiful day here in Sedona, Arizona, so I'm doing well.

00:01:56.046 --> 00:01:57.115
I know you're doing good.

00:01:57.436 --> 00:01:58.365
and I'm happy for you.

00:01:58.365 --> 00:02:01.126
I love, uh, I want to go back and visit Sedona.

00:02:01.186 --> 00:02:03.695
I like the, uh, the vibe over there.

00:02:03.995 --> 00:02:09.026
And even though it's a, it's hot, it's a dry heat, so I, I think I can handle it.

00:02:10.760 --> 00:02:15.350
Well, you have to write, you have to write do for it, so it's perfect.

00:02:15.881 --> 00:02:16.270
Right?

00:02:17.371 --> 00:02:19.751
We're brothers with, uh, with the shiny bald heads.

00:02:20.131 --> 00:02:20.640
There you go.

00:02:21.491 --> 00:03:06.705
Um, for anybody that's not watching, Stephen has a huge Library behind him with a lot of really cool books and we're going to get into that and today's episode We're diving into dreams because we got some really interesting origin stories navigation stories to dive into And steven has a really Really cool story on how he got into dreams and and Steven if you don't mind I want to ask you that first question because when we did like the whole prequel thing You you mentioned this one story and I'm like wait what and so I've been dying to ask you this question because I want to unpack what is going on.

00:03:06.925 --> 00:03:08.925
And so let's do it.

00:03:08.936 --> 00:03:11.445
So, um, where did it all begin?

00:03:11.445 --> 00:03:16.786
Because you said you were 24 years old when your journey started with dreams and analysis.

00:03:17.526 --> 00:03:18.996
Yes, that that's correct.

00:03:19.006 --> 00:03:59.640
And, uh, I have a math science background, uh, a very extensive athletic background and dreams for the meaning of dreams actually had no meaning to me because Either I didn't remember they were silly, but when I was 24, I met a Native American, uh, Indian, who gave me a reading, as he said, and at the end of the reading, he said, all my future guidance would come in my dreams, and I thought, Wow, that's, that's exciting, but the type of personality I was, I went one week without sleeping, John, because every night I was going, I'm going to go to sleep.

00:03:59.871 --> 00:04:00.941
I'm going to have a dream.

00:04:01.070 --> 00:04:02.950
It's going to be impactful.

00:04:02.980 --> 00:04:07.855
But after one week, I was so tired, I didn't sleep.

00:04:08.126 --> 00:04:10.475
recalled the dream and it went like this.

00:04:11.066 --> 00:04:14.026
A book opened up in my dream.

00:04:14.295 --> 00:04:21.346
It was a picture book of animals and I heard a voice say, what kind of animal is Steve?

00:04:21.565 --> 00:04:24.826
And a finger points to a particular animal.

00:04:24.946 --> 00:04:33.406
Now, before I tell you what that picture was, I recognize the voice as an extremely good friend of mine.

00:04:33.761 --> 00:04:44.420
We played on a six man volleyball team, and as far as I knew, even though we hadn't seen each other for two years, everything was great, nothing was ever said.

00:04:44.810 --> 00:04:47.331
But something possessed me.

00:04:47.805 --> 00:04:53.485
To call him up and again, I just I never saw his face.

00:04:53.526 --> 00:04:55.896
I thought it was him So I said hi Bob.

00:04:56.336 --> 00:04:58.415
Is there anything bothering you about me?

00:04:58.446 --> 00:05:02.545
And he goes no I asked a second time.

00:05:02.675 --> 00:05:10.915
Is there anything that you're upset or you don't he goes no John I asked a third time.

00:05:11.005 --> 00:05:12.935
He goes what's your problem?

00:05:13.136 --> 00:05:14.065
Are you sick?

00:05:15.115 --> 00:05:23.975
I asked a fourth time I said I want to be a better person And he says to me, well, there is something that's been bothering me.

00:05:24.485 --> 00:05:28.136
I thought my stomach, I mean, I go, what?

00:05:28.146 --> 00:05:32.115
He goes, do you remember when we played six man indoor volleyball?

00:05:32.625 --> 00:05:33.586
I said, yes.

00:05:34.466 --> 00:05:36.266
He said, you are all American.

00:05:36.605 --> 00:05:37.915
Everybody looked up to you.

00:05:37.915 --> 00:05:40.716
Do you remember what you did to Harold, one of our teammates?

00:05:41.336 --> 00:05:43.906
And I go, no, I don't.

00:05:44.656 --> 00:05:46.755
Harold was the seventh player.

00:05:46.755 --> 00:05:48.005
You only have six.

00:05:48.016 --> 00:05:49.406
He was not the best.

00:05:49.771 --> 00:05:52.021
And now this is Bob sharing with me.

00:05:52.761 --> 00:06:01.610
Every time Harold came into the game, and he may have made a mistake, You didn't say anything, but you just glared at him.

00:06:02.401 --> 00:06:04.201
And now Bob's continuing.

00:06:04.471 --> 00:06:14.430
Harold and I would go out for pizza after, and he would throw up because he couldn't win your approval, and I thought you were a real hog.

00:06:15.221 --> 00:06:17.360
Now, you know what the picture was in the book?

00:06:17.500 --> 00:06:18.600
It was a hog.

00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:26.540
I sat there, I thanked him, and, yes, I really teared up after, and I was going, Wait a minute.

00:06:27.225 --> 00:06:47.165
This is my bedroom, this is my dream, how, how did I pick up something that was not obvious and then after that, I had anywhere from four to six dreams every night for the next three months on my personality,

00:06:47.675 --> 00:06:49.346
likes and dislikes.

00:06:49.815 --> 00:06:50.435
Real quick.

00:06:51.396 --> 00:07:04.805
Um, so you had the dream and it was Bob's voice pointing to a hog, but did that conversation with Bob happen in the dream or did it happen after the dream?

00:07:04.886 --> 00:07:06.656
No, I physically called him.

00:07:06.656 --> 00:07:08.365
After the dream?

00:07:08.745 --> 00:07:09.646
After the dream.

00:07:09.646 --> 00:07:14.855
I woke up and I was going, wow, just call, no.

00:07:14.995 --> 00:07:19.440
That whole last part was after I awoke.

00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:25.071
And it was extremely hard since he was a P.

00:07:25.071 --> 00:07:25.261
E.

00:07:25.261 --> 00:07:40.365
teacher, not that that's wrong, but he was a jock, jock, he wouldn't know anything about the dreams or spirituality, uh, and I just took that chance, but for me to ask four times, Including one of the guys going, what's your problem?

00:07:40.365 --> 00:07:41.266
Are you sick?

00:07:41.446 --> 00:07:43.295
What are you asking me that for?

00:07:43.625 --> 00:07:44.935
And then persisted.

00:07:45.196 --> 00:07:52.406
But I really believe that it was my persistence that made a difference on many fronts.

00:07:52.615 --> 00:08:08.425
And especially later, um, having dreams about, again, every face of my personality, likes and dislikes, I would, in dreams, get commentaries on different subjects and, and people.

00:08:09.055 --> 00:08:14.326
And then, of course, I started getting just a telephone number.

00:08:15.185 --> 00:08:19.115
So I don't want to get us way out there, but let's just plant the seed.

00:08:20.055 --> 00:08:22.836
I, in my dreams, would be given a number.

00:08:23.266 --> 00:08:35.426
I always kept a yellow legal pad next to me, so I would write my dream down, never open my eyes, turn the page, and do that anywhere from four to six times a night.

00:08:35.625 --> 00:08:37.985
But then, just a telephone number.

00:08:38.255 --> 00:08:39.716
And then I would sit and look.

00:08:40.311 --> 00:08:42.431
What am I going to do with this?

00:08:45.081 --> 00:08:45.821
So you call it.

00:08:46.990 --> 00:08:48.860
And I did.

00:08:49.841 --> 00:09:00.870
And for those, well, for your people who can see, there are more than 15, 000 volumes in here dating to 1492.

00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:06.341
And when I called that number, somebody would say, we're waiting for you.

00:09:06.451 --> 00:09:08.561
We have some materials for you to care.

00:09:08.561 --> 00:09:09.946
Now.

00:09:10.485 --> 00:09:51.461
Let's say you and our audience were just sitting around at a party and I told the story they'd go wow Maybe we like him because his head is bald, but that is kind of a bizarre story It's not when somebody comes in here or sees what you're seeing because in here are lost and forgotten healing devices rare materials Notes and logs from scientists from the past Which, when I would go to these places, they wanted me to be a steward and caretaker, and, and that's what's here totally through, through the dreams guidance.

00:09:52.931 --> 00:10:03.201
So, I have to ask, when you called that number, and they said, we've been waiting for you, can you share, like, like, what happened after that?

00:10:03.211 --> 00:10:03.551
Like,

00:10:04.321 --> 00:10:22.941
Well, they would want me to go to specific locations, where they were at, Other times they would say we would like you to gather everything you can on a particular philosopher or person from the past which I never heard of.

00:10:23.331 --> 00:10:27.191
In fact, I had two types of, of dreams.

00:10:27.311 --> 00:10:31.240
And again, none of this was in my family background.

00:10:31.471 --> 00:10:33.811
I was math, science, and sports.

00:10:33.860 --> 00:10:35.630
I, I didn't have any of this.

00:10:36.155 --> 00:10:47.796
Another reoccurring dream, strangely enough, was me in a library, and there was a line of people, and at the head of the line was this man looking down from a podium.

00:10:48.576 --> 00:10:59.676
And I would get there, and he would go, We now want you to study Pythagoras, or Paracelsus, or Marsilio Ficino, which I never heard.

00:11:00.076 --> 00:11:37.301
And then I would go out, and on the telephone calls, the people would say, Uh, we want you to come, and I would go from Los Angeles to a place in Florida and get information on, uh, a philosopher named Parkhurst Phineas Quimby, which I never heard about, and I was given all of his unpublished writings, so it's a multitude of experiences, um, but the guidance for me is And a lot of other people through history came from the dreams.

00:11:37.841 --> 00:11:39.360
So, okay.

00:11:39.541 --> 00:11:40.000
I know.

00:11:40.331 --> 00:11:40.591
I know.

00:11:40.591 --> 00:11:45.280
Maybe the people in your audience are either pulling out their hair or going, come on.

00:11:45.691 --> 00:11:46.660
How's that possible?

00:11:46.660 --> 00:11:46.860
Well,

00:11:47.410 --> 00:11:52.201
so I, my, my mind, I'm, I'm trying to, I'm very visual in my mind, right?

00:11:52.230 --> 00:11:52.581
Yes.

00:11:52.581 --> 00:11:57.870
So I see you calling a number and then like someone in.

00:11:58.686 --> 00:12:31.711
Like a dark room picking up a phone in like some hotel and and and saying we've been waiting for you And then like giving you instructions And then from what my experience from what you just said It sounds like and correct me because I want to get to the bottom of this If you don't mind, did you just like show up to a A place and there were just like books there or there are actual people waiting for you and then you got to meet them and, and, and they've been like, were you able to meet the person on the other line?

00:12:32.091 --> 00:12:33.311
Yes, of course.

00:12:33.390 --> 00:12:39.831
No, it was, it's very hard if it's not in somebody's frame of reference.

00:12:39.831 --> 00:12:42.860
It certainly wasn't originally in my frame of reference.

00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:51.260
But going to locations, physical, real people who we could only classified.

00:12:51.600 --> 00:13:04.400
It's highly intuitive, um, always very loving, but there's a difference between the people who write books and claim to be able to do certain things.

00:13:05.051 --> 00:13:16.730
And then there's the people who don't write the books, who do really amazing things as far as our minds are conceiving, but it's just natural for them.

00:13:17.341 --> 00:13:20.850
Communication over distance, that's nothing.

00:13:21.510 --> 00:13:54.311
So a dream, a dream is a communication portal, and I don't think people truly appreciate the, the, um, the breath and the power and I'm going to use the word power that's involved with our dreams because it allows us to reach not only different states of consciousness within our own selves, but it allows us to reach venues and dimensions that we're not even aware of.

00:13:54.311 --> 00:14:04.130
Whether somebody wants to say their higher self, angels, God, I'll leave that up to who's ever listening.

00:14:04.451 --> 00:14:13.581
But it is a direct line and therefore I don't believe that we need gurus or we need special people.

00:14:13.711 --> 00:14:20.841
We have the telephone to every dimension right here.

00:14:21.331 --> 00:14:22.681
Right in our dreams.

00:14:23.051 --> 00:14:27.130
And as we go and say, okay, well you had all this experience.

00:14:27.380 --> 00:14:28.951
Where has it led you?

00:14:29.110 --> 00:14:30.801
How have you changed your life?

00:14:31.061 --> 00:14:39.801
It opened up a realm and a reality far beyond my schooling and even my early experience.

00:14:39.831 --> 00:14:44.740
Because John, I'm sitting there going, How does this happen?

00:14:45.145 --> 00:14:50.485
That this fellow, I don't, I don't think Bob was sitting there at night going, I'm mad at Ste.

00:14:50.755 --> 00:14:51.625
He's a hog.

00:14:51.865 --> 00:14:52.436
It's terrible.

00:14:53.605 --> 00:14:58.135
So this is a movie that, so for the last, that was at 24.

00:14:58.456 --> 00:15:07.926
So for the last 50 years, basically 51 years, um, I have gone all over the world through Dreams.

00:15:08.255 --> 00:15:10.145
I have written a book on dreams.

00:15:10.525 --> 00:15:18.975
Um, we'll go into these type of things, but I've been guided all over the world to get to places.

00:15:19.466 --> 00:15:36.166
And again, the proof is in the pudding, and for those who don't see, I'm pointing to the materials that are in here, including devices that people on the internet have heard about, but they don't know where, where they are.

00:15:36.196 --> 00:15:38.676
Well, A lot of them are here.

00:15:40.125 --> 00:15:40.836
That's awesome.

00:15:41.615 --> 00:15:43.206
Mm, mm, mm.

00:15:43.355 --> 00:15:44.306
And, okay.

00:15:44.306 --> 00:15:49.375
I feel like I'm in the candy shop of questions.

00:15:49.816 --> 00:15:50.225
Semi

00:15:50.265 --> 00:15:51.686
twilight zone also.

00:15:53.316 --> 00:16:26.586
Um, I, part of me, so okay, I have to address something because I know that Um, some, some of us in the audience are thinking, Hmm, so you mean to tell me that he got a phone number, Called it, met up with somebody that communicated with Steven Using, uh, an extra sensory skill with using your mind, And, and deliberately, deliberately had a plan to connect with you through your dreams?

00:16:27.046 --> 00:16:54.250
So that you call them, meet up with them, they give you directions, you understand the situation, you accept it because of how crazy it happened, like a movie, like Why Me type of situation, like that's how each fantastic movie starts, where, you know, you have a doctorate in finance, and you, you're like, I'm going to follow this dream.

00:16:54.380 --> 00:16:59.841
Bug Bob, Bob thinks you're crazy.

00:17:00.250 --> 00:17:00.760
Yes.

00:17:01.041 --> 00:17:03.821
You think probably at that point, you're a little crazy.

00:17:03.821 --> 00:17:08.030
Like that reminds me of every movie, like everybody thinks they're crazy.

00:17:08.621 --> 00:17:24.550
And then, um, uh, I, I do have to, I, I want to get into everything, but I do want to address your thoughts on the idea and the understanding that there's also technology out there called, um, I think the voice of God, where.

00:17:24.976 --> 00:17:35.296
Synthetically, humans have been able to implant Um, thoughts in your waking life sounds in your mind, in your waking life.

00:17:35.326 --> 00:17:43.006
And we're also starting to have the capacity to do that in more of a mass scale or less of a black ops scale, right?

00:17:43.006 --> 00:17:48.226
You know, like, um, with AI, but from what I understand, we've had this technology for a while.

00:17:48.226 --> 00:17:55.965
So how do you know, I mean, the outcome is fantastic regardless, but how do you know they're not using technology to do this?

00:17:55.996 --> 00:17:57.566
And are you aware of that technology?

00:17:57.865 --> 00:18:07.266
Well, you've got to remember now, I'll be 76 in January, so this was happening in the 1970s.

00:18:07.346 --> 00:18:10.786
So, they did not have that technology back then.

00:18:11.516 --> 00:18:27.885
And, um, if you look at the list of people throughout history, the finishing of the periodic table was accomplished because the developer had a dream.

00:18:28.346 --> 00:18:41.486
Some of the greatest writers in the history of literature and the world, politicians, generals, um, the, these are all known facts.

00:18:42.865 --> 00:18:47.526
We'll say it was because of what they got through their dreams.

00:18:47.766 --> 00:18:49.796
Now I wrote a little essay called.

00:18:50.611 --> 00:18:54.000
Are they geniuses or just good listeners?

00:18:54.300 --> 00:19:02.451
Because what if these famous writers did not complete their magnum opus great thing?

00:19:03.161 --> 00:19:19.270
What if the scientists, including the singer's sewing machine, was developed because in a dream he saw riders with spears next to them on their horse.

00:19:19.300 --> 00:19:23.671
Now, if they had not listened, you wouldn't even know about them.

00:19:23.840 --> 00:19:25.510
So, I'm going to say it again.

00:19:25.810 --> 00:19:29.611
Were they geniuses or just good listeners?

00:19:29.861 --> 00:19:48.296
And so, this idea that things, including boxers who dreamed that their opponent was going to be killed in the ring, The night before, if I'd actually called, now it's sports, and the other side didn't believe him, it happened.

00:19:48.685 --> 00:19:51.976
And whether it's George Washington, or Ulysses S.

00:19:51.976 --> 00:19:58.395
Grant, or, again, very, very famous people, it's not unusual.

00:19:58.465 --> 00:20:00.905
So, here's what I will put back to you.

00:20:01.096 --> 00:20:02.336
Where did that come from?

00:20:03.685 --> 00:20:07.006
Who, was it just another part of them?

00:20:07.365 --> 00:20:14.036
Was it, Somebody on the other side who said here, we're going to help you see the periodic table.

00:20:14.465 --> 00:20:17.296
Now, people can have their own opinions.

00:20:17.296 --> 00:20:20.576
Well, maybe it was a greater part of them.

00:20:20.786 --> 00:20:45.435
But these people who I've spoken about will say, sometimes the dictation came from another voice or little pixies, they would say, that were speaking so quickly that the writers, and again, we can go through a list, they're the most famous poets in the history of the world.

00:20:45.546 --> 00:20:50.395
And they claimed, didn't come from me, it was from some other source.

00:20:50.726 --> 00:20:58.346
So I may be out there for some of your friends who don't know me, that I'm a joking light hearted guy.

00:20:59.800 --> 00:21:04.161
Or there really is something out there that we all possess.

00:21:06.020 --> 00:21:08.510
And that is, why was I different?

00:21:08.671 --> 00:21:10.671
Because I did what Nike says.

00:21:10.810 --> 00:21:12.111
I just did it.

00:21:12.471 --> 00:21:15.881
I just called and fought through.

00:21:15.980 --> 00:21:17.161
Are you nuts?

00:21:17.750 --> 00:21:19.070
Why are you asking me?

00:21:19.570 --> 00:21:21.800
And it opened the door.

00:21:21.990 --> 00:21:29.590
And the more you work with your dreams, and by that I mean, you're open the more that happens.

00:21:30.316 --> 00:21:31.385
In my opinion,

00:21:32.705 --> 00:21:34.076
I agree.

00:21:34.986 --> 00:21:37.445
Um, I'm like, wow.

00:21:39.096 --> 00:21:39.385
All right.

00:21:39.385 --> 00:21:56.901
So the native American experience, you got these books, you've been traveling, you have a library, um, and we, and it's, I'm a believer because I honestly have had my share of dreams of, and we've, uh, I've done a couple episodes around dreams of my experiences.

00:21:56.931 --> 00:22:07.500
And it's absolutely true for, for me when it comes to getting an idea of what's going on, on a deeper level for yourself.

00:22:07.780 --> 00:22:11.570
If you're stuck and you're trying to figure things out, your dreams will tell you.

00:22:11.941 --> 00:22:21.280
And it's like, I also feel like your dreams will tell you something that is the most important thing to know right now.

00:22:22.040 --> 00:22:59.516
And, and when you say you wake up and you write down things with your eyes closed, I Write it in my phone and uh, maybe I should write it down with my hand But I feel like I'm just gonna go like weird, but when I do write it down with my phone Uh, I got one eye open and it's sideways and it's just it's a mess but I get it in there and I know what you're talking about where uh, For me, it's as I write it down I remember about like the dream before that and so I have to like Create a space and then start writing that and then that gives me more information about the dream before that and then

00:22:59.556 --> 00:23:00.056
yes

00:23:00.115 --> 00:23:05.155
Before you know it you have five different dreams and it's like what is going on.

00:23:05.185 --> 00:23:16.865
I've had a dream about waking up In the dream and then I wake up again and now I have to like really question stuff now because am I, am I going to have a whole day and then wake up again?

00:23:18.645 --> 00:23:19.875
Is this inception?

00:23:20.135 --> 00:23:22.236
It's, it's very, it's very, very true.

00:23:22.236 --> 00:23:27.326
And, um, now I have kept dream journals for 50 years.

00:23:27.635 --> 00:23:30.615
I have, I've kept a record for 50 years.

00:23:30.615 --> 00:23:31.306
So I know.

00:23:31.776 --> 00:23:51.246
Uh, the different type of dreams, but sometimes, oh, many years ago I got tired and I go, you know, I'm just going to speak it into a, a, a, a tape recorder because we didn't have cell phones back then, but I discovered that once I tried to talk it in, I lost everything.

00:23:51.346 --> 00:23:59.296
It's coming from a different sensory, Um, area and I quickly learned, no, that's not going to work.

00:23:59.615 --> 00:24:09.175
But my dreams have gone as far as not only getting a dream because yes, I've had the same kind of dreams as other people.

00:24:09.435 --> 00:24:12.836
You're, you're riding in a car, then it becomes a bicycle.

00:24:12.836 --> 00:24:15.855
Then you're riding on a horse or then you're on a scooter.

00:24:16.036 --> 00:24:21.516
So I don't want somebody to think, Oh yeah, the guy just has prognosticating and dreams.

00:24:21.776 --> 00:24:22.306
But.

00:24:23.145 --> 00:24:28.425
I have also been given the interpretation right after, which you're not going to read in very many books.

00:24:28.435 --> 00:24:35.316
In other words, while I was still there, I was like, okay, I'm thinking in my mind, what does this mean?

00:24:35.476 --> 00:24:43.576
And then I've been given an interpretation sometimes, which explains the symbology of what it meant.

00:24:43.756 --> 00:24:52.221
So I'm here to say, and I so much appreciate John, You giving me an opportunity to share this.

00:24:52.740 --> 00:25:01.820
People need to stretch the boundaries and limits of what is possible, not only with the dreams, but everything in life.

00:25:02.421 --> 00:25:03.911
Make no boundaries.

00:25:04.111 --> 00:25:13.381
And so I will wake up, eyes closed, write the dream, and then I hear a voice give me an interpretation.

00:25:13.691 --> 00:25:16.451
It's, everything is possible.

00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:17.851
Yeah.

00:25:18.151 --> 00:25:36.355
And, I think I know what you're talking about because I'll wake up and I'm going to try the writing part because I do on the phone and I want to see what if I get more with my eyes, my eyes closed, but I think I know what you're talking about with the interpretation where for me, I start typing it in.

00:25:37.340 --> 00:25:40.560
And part of me is like, this is just wild.

00:25:40.601 --> 00:25:45.441
I'm just going to write, like, I just like, right before we started recording, I'll give you an example of how wild it can get.

00:25:46.221 --> 00:25:48.310
You asked me, Oh, so did you have any dreams lately?

00:25:48.310 --> 00:25:50.260
And I said, yes, I have.

00:25:51.010 --> 00:25:51.671
I had.

00:25:54.131 --> 00:25:55.250
Vampire babies.

00:25:56.280 --> 00:25:59.351
And I felt bad because they were babies, right?

00:25:59.421 --> 00:26:12.240
And if we, if you've watched a movie on vampires, especially the movie Interview with a Vampire, um, where if whatever age you turn into a vampire, you're stuck.

00:26:12.240 --> 00:26:14.701
So I felt bad because I'm like, they're going to be babies forever.

00:26:14.760 --> 00:26:16.080
They're going to be lost, confused.

00:26:16.361 --> 00:26:28.070
Are they going to, you know, I have the mind of an adult, and then I just felt bad, and then I was conflicted because, should the, should I be worried?

00:26:28.121 --> 00:26:31.385
I mean, They can only crawl so fast, right?

00:26:32.605 --> 00:26:43.455
Um, so it was just weird and then um, yeah, they were pale and you know, they They had blood on their mouth, even though it doesn't look like they bit anything It was just like, you know, it just my mind created it.

00:26:43.675 --> 00:27:00.391
But when you write it down i'm going back to you know, um Talking about what you were talking about, um, when I was typing away, I, I do remember, uh, just putting it down, trying to remember, and then getting an idea of what it could mean afterwards.

00:27:00.921 --> 00:27:01.381
Right.

00:27:01.530 --> 00:27:14.661
And like the repetition stuff of, uh, for me, a lot of dreams have been cars and sometimes I'll have like this nice Ferrari and like, yes, I got my Ferrari.

00:27:15.290 --> 00:27:21.915
And then, um, I'll crash the Ferrari and then now I have to pick up my car, which is not a Ferrari.

00:27:22.425 --> 00:27:30.486
Or maybe it's a car that's worse than what I have and it's got like no doors and you know, me trying to understand what's going on.

00:27:30.486 --> 00:27:37.375
I I've heard that your car can symbolize your life path or your career, right?

00:27:37.385 --> 00:27:46.935
And maybe you got an opportunity to have something great happen and you turned it down and now you have to deal with your, um, doorless.

00:27:47.820 --> 00:27:48.161
Right?

00:27:48.161 --> 00:27:57.401
So, uh, and, and it's, it's one of those things where I hate to tell someone that that's what it means for you.

00:27:57.721 --> 00:28:06.240
But it, I also feel like as you write your dreams, you learn the patterns of your own language to yourself.

00:28:06.250 --> 00:28:07.381
Correct me if I'm wrong.

00:28:07.411 --> 00:28:14.471
So it's one of those, like you can give someone a suggestion and if they adopt that suggestion, then that will just be how their dreams.

00:28:14.961 --> 00:28:16.840
I feel like your dreams is just going to figure out.

00:28:17.300 --> 00:28:35.371
Whatever way they can, it can, you can, whatever, whoever is on the other side of the phone, so to speak, that virtual zoom dream call, um, they're like, okay, if they think it's a car and it's a career, then like, then we'll continue with that, like, whatever they can, whatever patterns they can recognize, you know?

00:28:36.451 --> 00:28:46.111
And, and, uh, again, I didn't do this show to hawk anything, but, but you really led me in to something valuable.

00:28:46.361 --> 00:28:47.300
And that is.

00:28:49.046 --> 00:29:09.726
This is the book that I wrote, A Grand Design, and it's because after you look at 50 years of dreams, I noticed there was a design to what the, the basic idea of what the dream was about.

00:29:10.006 --> 00:29:19.526
Some was prognostication, some was about health, some was about philosophy, some was about Uh, seeing what was going to happen in the future.

00:29:19.806 --> 00:29:23.715
I noticed there was a grand design.

00:29:23.715 --> 00:29:29.346
Now, if somebody has one or two dreams, they'll go, Well, I had a dream about this, and you interpret.

00:29:29.846 --> 00:29:33.026
But when you look over, 50 years.

00:29:33.286 --> 00:29:35.346
It's like, wow, wait a minute.

00:29:36.086 --> 00:29:40.066
I could pigeonhole these dreams into seven different categories.

00:29:41.026 --> 00:29:50.976
Now, it allows me to share a story with you because, again, everything is about perspective.

00:29:51.355 --> 00:30:02.715
Aristotle was walking along the Mediterranean, and in the distance he spied a figure, a man holding a bucket, putting it in the Mediterranean.

00:30:02.800 --> 00:30:08.530
And as he got close, he realized it was the village madman.

00:30:09.181 --> 00:30:12.401
And Aristotle says to him, What are you doing?

00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:19.891
And the man says, I am going to empty all of this water so I can see the beautiful blue green bottom.

00:30:20.230 --> 00:30:28.121
So Aristotle says to him, How are you going to get all of that water into this little hole of yours?

00:30:28.861 --> 00:30:34.820
And the man scratched his head and stood up and said, Great philosopher, what are you doing?

00:30:35.205 --> 00:30:40.435
And Aristotle says, I am contemplating the universe.

00:30:40.645 --> 00:30:44.536
And the man says, how are you going to get all that in that little head of yours?

00:30:46.135 --> 00:30:47.605
Everything is perspective.

00:30:47.945 --> 00:30:57.615
And I shared this so your audience would know, I am sharing my experiences and my perspective.

00:30:59.195 --> 00:31:00.816
Perhaps I'm the philosopher.

00:31:01.560 --> 00:31:07.090
Perhaps I'm the village madman, but it has been my experience.

00:31:07.530 --> 00:31:09.861
It has been my life.

00:31:10.371 --> 00:31:14.461
And the best I can do is at least share.

00:31:14.871 --> 00:31:17.441
Now, I didn't join any groups.

00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:21.101
Somebody just said, Hey, pay attention to your dreams.

00:31:21.911 --> 00:31:47.625
And so that is what I am doing with your audience is just saying, What if there is this incredible ability to contact Anywhere you want and anything that that you desire that you can plug in because I've had more than 50 years experience with this, and I am no different than anybody else.

00:31:47.625 --> 00:31:54.316
Although you and I have special because we're, you know, we have a do like this, but that wasn't necessary.

00:31:55.320 --> 00:32:03.611
To get to dreams and the more somebody pays attention i'm gonna call your dreamer the more information you're gonna get

00:32:05.810 --> 00:32:29.211
That's a lot of phone calls um Okay, so I want to ask you about a specific dream that I I wanted to make sure I had time to ask you it And before I forget The most I remember asking what's the most fascinating dream you've ever had and you went straight to The barber scene.

00:32:30.520 --> 00:32:32.490
So can you share what the barber scene is?

00:32:32.800 --> 00:33:06.750
Yeah, the barber scene was There was one night The most dreams i've ever had in one night woke up and recorded by the way It was never tired was seven dreams that night But the first the very first dream was You I was sitting in like a barber's chair, slightly reclined, and I heard voices behind me saying, Oh, what dream sequence should we, and dream should we give Steve tonight?

00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:09.131
It was like, what?

00:33:09.381 --> 00:33:14.691
And then I heard, and then I had those dreams that night.

00:33:15.300 --> 00:33:30.740
It was so, it, it, it really, see a lot of times for me, even though I have all this literature, And I'm gonna show some show and tell books, you know, these books from the 1400s on dreams and 1500s.

00:33:30.740 --> 00:33:37.211
I, I, I am still amazed at what comes through and, and what happens.

00:33:37.211 --> 00:33:41.770
And they mention subjects, and those were the dreams I had that day.

00:33:44.036 --> 00:34:15.936
So, that was the most bizarre, um, experience, but in regards to dreams, I've had dreams that foretold two days, a week in advance, a year, five years, uh, I have a non profit World Research Foundation, we're going to receive a donation of X amount of dollars, in three months, uh, where that was not something that I would consciously know.

00:34:16.275 --> 00:34:19.306
In other words, it wasn't like, oh, we're going to donate to you.

00:34:20.146 --> 00:34:27.896
So there have been a variety of topics and subjects.

00:34:28.255 --> 00:34:44.365
And again, I have 50 years of recording these, um, and knowing what What what it is it is an incredible vehicle that I would love people Again in their 20s and 30s.

00:34:44.425 --> 00:34:47.275
I'm not sure Of of the age of your audience.

00:34:47.275 --> 00:34:51.135
I'm sure it's a wide why not pursue something?

00:34:52.195 --> 00:35:10.416
that broadens your Receptivity your your learning and this goes back now I'm, just going by what i'm told You Intuitively, you mentioned that as you're writing down, you're going back.

00:35:10.445 --> 00:35:22.856
Now, Pythagoras, one of the greatest philosophers of all time, the right triangle, the harmony of the spheres, completing the octave, what he did with his students was the following.

00:35:23.786 --> 00:35:34.585
At night before bed, he would have them review in reverse order everything that's taken place from when they're ready to go to sleep.

00:35:35.295 --> 00:35:36.445
Throughout the day.

00:35:37.326 --> 00:35:41.485
Including if they could remember the dreams during the night.

00:35:42.865 --> 00:35:43.545
Interesting.

00:35:43.706 --> 00:35:48.056
We're talking 550 BC.

00:35:50.516 --> 00:36:17.351
So speaking of 550 BC, um, I want to say one thing and then I want to get into those books because, um, it, it does sound like you've read Those books and you're, and you're pulling, am I correct in saying that, um, you've pulled some of the, uh, knowledge from those books that are like from the BC area and used that in your book?

00:36:19.471 --> 00:36:25.710
My particular book, um, has been, it's not a book on dream interpretation.

00:36:26.481 --> 00:36:28.311
This is the first book.

00:36:28.931 --> 00:36:32.501
Ever printed interpreting dreams.

00:36:32.541 --> 00:36:48.880
This book that I have in my hand is from 1539 and it is talking about one of the greatest dream interpreters and there has been somebody who translated the book I just showed you.

00:36:49.221 --> 00:36:54.791
It is a book by Artemidorus and I have the English translation here.

00:36:55.501 --> 00:36:59.291
Artemidorus was about 100 A.

00:36:59.291 --> 00:36:59.811
D.

00:37:00.190 --> 00:37:12.550
And this book, Interpretation, is so funny because it says, If you had a dream that you were flying on Pegasus to have a dinner with Zeus, this is what, this is what the dream means.

00:37:12.690 --> 00:37:33.295
Or, you and Diana, the great huntress, were out on a date, and so, Dream Interpretation, It goes back, there's biblical references of individuals in the Bible who had dreams and it changed the course of the world and their religion.

00:37:34.356 --> 00:37:36.186
It is as old as time.

00:37:36.525 --> 00:37:51.936
My book is not going to be another book on dream interpretation because literally, and we have them here, there are hundreds of books that say a car means this, a house means this, the first level, the kitchen.

00:37:53.431 --> 00:38:02.820
I am showing that there is a design to the dreams, that if you look carefully, they are in different topics.

00:38:03.141 --> 00:38:22.030
And my whole last book is my discoveries and where I was guided all over the world through the dreams that I mentioned to receive information, uh, who it is, what it is, actual physical people.

00:38:22.405 --> 00:38:24.206
Lost healing devices.

00:38:24.356 --> 00:38:26.266
I'm going to throw a little tune in here.

00:38:26.356 --> 00:38:32.545
The Reif microscope, the most powerful microscope that ever existed that has been lost.

00:38:33.655 --> 00:38:37.735
I was guided by dreams to, to go there.

00:38:37.905 --> 00:38:50.275
So my book is not simply, okay, if you have a horse, it means this, and a dog means that, but I believe it does have a value in broadening somebody's perspective.

00:38:50.996 --> 00:38:56.771
Emerson said, When I find narrow viewpoints, I find narrow reading.

00:38:57.251 --> 00:39:06.320
So let's just say, let's extrapolate that and say, if my experiences are limited, that's all I know.

00:39:07.081 --> 00:39:29.490
But if I have experiences that make me go, Oh, wow, this is possible, Rather than pooh pooh this, let's go back to the analogy of Plato's cave, and, and the people in the cave thinking the whole reality was what they saw against the wall.

00:39:30.161 --> 00:39:35.550
And when they turn around, it's a whole, it's a whole different existence.

00:39:35.831 --> 00:39:40.721
So, that is why I, I'm doing what I'm doing.

00:39:41.780 --> 00:39:44.490
People are never going to have my exact experience.

00:39:45.045 --> 00:39:54.795
But I'm trying to share with people, and thankfully, because of you, that, hey, anything is possible with, with these dreams.

00:39:55.146 --> 00:40:02.126
And when I interact with people, they go, Steve, my dreams are always silly, I don't remember them.

00:40:02.166 --> 00:40:02.476
Okay.

00:40:03.195 --> 00:40:21.476
So are mine, but if you honestly go out and, and, and say, I would like guidance, whether you're talking to yourself or you think you're talking or talking with angels or God, just try it, just see what comes through.

00:40:22.070 --> 00:40:42.291
Perhaps, I'm sitting here with two pages of the greatest names in the history of the world in everything I told you, literature, politics, religion, sports, Jack Nicklaus going, Gee, in my dream I received the perfect way of changing my putting stands.

00:40:42.541 --> 00:41:00.246
Whatever, your life will become, um, brighter, more beautiful, and when you're intent, is for the highest and best, which, which I hope will end our segment with, my, my philosophy of life.

00:41:00.545 --> 00:41:02.646
You are going to get good things.

00:41:03.536 --> 00:41:20.925
But if somebody's negative and, and on, on the downside, you know, the National Enquirer, I don't know if it still exists, but it was big during my life, said, if you want to have dreams about skiing, read book, read, read, read, just everything but skiing.

00:41:21.635 --> 00:41:32.416
Uh, uh, everything about skiing and your dreams are going to be, and that's true, but that's like using a DVR and programming it instead of a telephone.

00:41:33.175 --> 00:41:33.726
Hmm.

00:41:34.275 --> 00:41:37.056
I, you hit on something and I want to elaborate on that.

00:41:37.516 --> 00:41:44.445
I can see someone saying, well, If you have prophetic dreams Why don't you dream about the lottery?

00:41:45.476 --> 00:41:54.175
And I I have a story and I want to know what your thoughts are on that because you mentioned something of Your highest good and I think this aligns with that.

00:41:54.365 --> 00:42:15.190
I was talking to somebody this was years ago and they said that their brother had a dream of the lottery numbers and they were so excited they um They played the numbers, and um, I don't play the lottery like that, so I don't know how it works.

00:42:15.231 --> 00:42:21.481
There's different ways, and I don't know what it was like back then, but all I know is that they had all the right numbers.

00:42:21.931 --> 00:42:26.510
But it was an exact reverse, so they didn't win the jackpot.

00:42:27.740 --> 00:42:33.021
And I'm like, what a freaking tease and why?

00:42:35.460 --> 00:42:37.490
And it reminds me of your highest goods.

00:42:37.490 --> 00:42:38.690
So what are your thoughts on that?

00:42:40.291 --> 00:42:56.920
Uh, I have several, first of all, I've never even gone there because that has never been my goal in life, uh, to win money or to change the beautiful things that have happened throughout.

00:42:56.920 --> 00:42:59.081
So I've, I have been.

00:42:59.601 --> 00:43:02.021
interested more in this vein.

00:43:02.561 --> 00:43:04.320
How can I be a better person?

00:43:04.610 --> 00:43:13.641
How can I be more helpful to people in the world and then wait for input versus saying, give me this.

00:43:14.351 --> 00:43:26.516
I want that because, uh, that just hasn't been in my parlance or, or thought of manipulating or forcing anything.

00:43:26.846 --> 00:43:36.036
Uh, although it was my sports background of really working and working and working out and pushing, I was a sprinter.

00:43:36.306 --> 00:43:43.346
But in this esoteric, metaphysical, spiritual realm you get more by relaxing.

00:43:43.695 --> 00:43:48.585
By just saying, okay, what do you have for me?

00:43:48.596 --> 00:43:52.246
So that has been my approach rather.

00:43:52.565 --> 00:44:08.246
Now the other thing is, I said I have several things to Virtually everybody who's won that lottery, you can read how they went bankrupt and their life changed dramatically, sometimes within a year, sometimes longer.

00:44:08.565 --> 00:44:13.806
It changes your whole projectory of what happens in your life.

00:44:14.175 --> 00:44:38.940
And if it is true that we have guidance, which I personally believe we have extreme guidance, everybody has their own guide mechanisms, which are Whatever you, energy patterns, spirits that are around supporting, helping there, they know what is the best for your guidance.

00:44:39.550 --> 00:44:41.650
Now, if so, I, I'll say this.

00:44:41.650 --> 00:44:51.260
If I had a dream that said, go, go to the top of my balcony here and jump off to prove you can levitate, well, I'm not listening like that.

00:44:51.380 --> 00:44:57.431
I'm not involved with that because seriously for me, that does not fit into.

00:44:57.786 --> 00:45:00.416
Beauty, love, truth.

00:45:01.016 --> 00:45:08.135
That is looking to, um, uh, be, be famous or be a show off or, or prove.

00:45:08.335 --> 00:45:09.835
I, I just don't come from that.

00:45:09.925 --> 00:45:12.206
Now, can someone get lottery numbers?

00:45:12.335 --> 00:45:13.005
I'm sure.

00:45:13.021 --> 00:45:16.331
I, I, I could never speak for somebody else.

00:45:16.550 --> 00:45:18.280
Maybe it's their life path.

00:45:18.960 --> 00:45:21.871
They went a lot of money and they're going to help a lot of people.

00:45:22.081 --> 00:45:24.291
So I'm not saying it's impossible.

00:45:24.570 --> 00:45:29.311
But for me personally, and what you said with, you used a great word.

00:45:29.460 --> 00:45:30.831
What a frigging tease.

00:45:31.061 --> 00:45:43.650
Can you imagine kind of having it, but you don't have it well, maybe it was a good lesson for that person that chasing after that sort of thing.

00:45:44.996 --> 00:45:47.126
Is not really their highest and best.

00:45:47.295 --> 00:45:50.275
So I don't know if I've answered it directly.

00:45:50.275 --> 00:45:51.076
Is it possible?

00:45:51.076 --> 00:45:51.505
Yes.

00:45:51.525 --> 00:45:52.545
What do I think about it?

00:45:52.576 --> 00:45:53.666
I just don't go there.

00:45:53.876 --> 00:46:08.971
My life is so rich with just listening, just listening to what's coming through has led me to investigate things all over this planet that came through the dreams.

00:46:08.971 --> 00:46:12.143
Can you imagine like my dream with the library?

00:46:12.143 --> 00:46:15.315
We would now like you to study Marsilio Ficino.

00:46:16.335 --> 00:46:18.246
Or Paracelsus.

00:46:18.646 --> 00:46:20.746
I didn't know of these people before.

00:46:21.085 --> 00:46:24.635
It wasn't programmed in my mind from school.

00:46:25.686 --> 00:46:25.925
Yeah.

00:46:25.936 --> 00:46:44.666
And I started investigating and what starts is one shelf in a bookcase of these books ends up to be 15, 000 books and 30, 000 PDFs going back because that's this library.

00:46:45.675 --> 00:46:55.190
30, 000 PDFs dating to 1501 And 15, 000 books dating to 1492.

00:46:55.831 --> 00:46:57.811
That is a lot of books.

00:46:58.101 --> 00:46:59.201
It's a lot of books.

00:46:59.210 --> 00:47:02.990
And that's why I, I don't know about you, but that's why I don't have hair anymore.

00:47:03.260 --> 00:47:04.880
For that off reading.

00:47:04.940 --> 00:47:08.010
And yeah, the hair follicles just blew out of my head.

00:47:09.851 --> 00:47:10.791
Oh my God.

00:47:10.891 --> 00:47:15.561
And you make me want to learn about, uh, how to speed read just to get through.

00:47:15.990 --> 00:47:16.521
Right.

00:47:16.820 --> 00:47:17.141
Yeah,

00:47:17.490 --> 00:47:18.371
absolutely.

00:47:18.371 --> 00:47:18.391
Absolutely.

00:47:18.990 --> 00:47:20.610
So, what are your thoughts?

00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:23.201
So, well, first, thanks for answering the question.

00:47:23.260 --> 00:47:25.170
Um, I agree with you on that.

00:47:25.181 --> 00:47:26.911
Your highest good, chase after it.

00:47:26.951 --> 00:47:28.760
Um, it's in alignment.

00:47:28.800 --> 00:47:35.030
If it's not in alignment with your highest good, it probably won't be in alignment of any type of guidance.

00:47:35.581 --> 00:47:36.481
Um, but

00:47:36.800 --> 00:47:38.420
That's very well said.

00:47:39.320 --> 00:47:39.717
Thank you, sir.

00:47:39.717 --> 00:47:41.481
What you just said is very well said.

00:47:42.670 --> 00:47:55.621
What are your thoughts on Dreams and meditating, um, can it work with like, what are your, what are your thoughts about dreams?

00:47:55.641 --> 00:48:00.811
And what are your thoughts on meditating and how they can collide to possibly work with each other?

00:48:01.460 --> 00:48:10.951
Well, I, of course, meditation, uh, I believe if we just look at it in its most simplest aspect, it is sitting quietly.

00:48:11.221 --> 00:48:16.061
Now, a lot of people in the Western world try to force meditation.

00:48:16.465 --> 00:48:29.115
The eastern techniques which you and I are not trained about in the east Uh, maybe it's a little different now But they're not sitting there in sports day and night and running and doing there.

00:48:29.126 --> 00:48:37.755
It's It's something that is part of their philosophy their environment their culture Is to meditate for us.

00:48:37.815 --> 00:48:39.516
We're always freaking active.

00:48:39.606 --> 00:48:53.315
We're always on the move and so if we think of meditation more of Slowing down, quieting down, but not having to put yourself in pretzel figures, you know?

00:48:53.876 --> 00:49:13.766
It reminds me, when I got, I'm sorry I'm digressing slightly, but I remember Uh, when I got into this field and I'm looking at this culture and Eastern philosophy, I worked for three years to get into a lotus position, just from muscles and running track to where I could do it.

00:49:13.766 --> 00:49:17.235
And I remember doing it to one of my buddies who didn't know anything about this.

00:49:17.235 --> 00:49:18.766
He goes, Wow.

00:49:19.016 --> 00:49:23.815
And in one nanosecond, he just went into a perfect lotus position after not ever doing it.

00:49:24.485 --> 00:49:29.815
But I had carried my thing of sports of being good.

00:49:30.405 --> 00:49:31.846
into that eastern way.

00:49:31.916 --> 00:49:35.826
I'm gonna get into that lotus position even if it kills me.

00:49:36.356 --> 00:49:37.596
We don't need that.

00:49:38.476 --> 00:49:44.896
Meditation should be just sitting in a chair, um, just being quiet.

00:49:45.085 --> 00:49:52.496
There's something called a walking meditation in the east which is great where you breathe, you take steps.

00:49:52.606 --> 00:49:54.585
So what do I think about meditation?

00:49:55.675 --> 00:50:00.565
I think slowing down, getting in quietude.

00:50:01.945 --> 00:50:03.126
is incredible.

00:50:03.215 --> 00:50:04.536
Would it help in your dreams?

00:50:04.786 --> 00:50:05.675
Absolutely.

00:50:06.085 --> 00:50:09.856
Because you'll find you're able to go to sleep easier.

00:50:10.085 --> 00:50:16.795
You're not sitting there carrying all the vibrations of the day, um, and, and working through that.

00:50:16.806 --> 00:50:28.405
So yes, it is something that, uh, I think the two resonate together, uh, but you don't need one necessarily for the, for the other.

00:50:28.726 --> 00:50:37.940
But, Let's face it, relaxing, um, what, what it will do for your physical body, uh, your, your mental space.

00:50:38.251 --> 00:51:17.865
And it isn't unusual that some of these great thinkers and, and scientists, and I, I'm trying to remember if you said your audiences, um, electronic guys, engineers, they would be shocked to know some of the people in their field that took a one or two hour break during the day Which they may call it a power Something or other they end up doing their best work Because they've learned to still their mind and just listen and I guarantee you They weren't looking for the lotto numbers.

00:51:18.755 --> 00:51:28.255
They were looking for an answer to a complex Now if somebody wants to say well it came from another part of their mind.

00:51:28.346 --> 00:51:40.610
I don't have a problem with that either You It doesn't matter where it comes from, what matters is how it, how it affects your life and what it does for you.

00:51:40.840 --> 00:51:58.221
So whether I call it my over self or over soul or, or angels or spirits or God, to get in arguments with people about where it's coming from, I think the proof is better in the pudding.

00:51:58.610 --> 00:52:00.581
How has it made you a better person?

00:52:01.820 --> 00:52:04.851
And if it's made you a better person, to me it's a positive.

00:52:05.610 --> 00:52:15.090
If somebody takes these things and is Jack the Ripper and going out and manipulating people, that's not a very good positive aspect.

00:52:15.990 --> 00:52:17.990
Again, my opinion.

00:52:18.920 --> 00:52:27.610
I was gonna say, uh, I think in the Bible there's a part where Jesus says you can tell, um, The quality of it.

00:52:27.701 --> 00:52:31.621
I'm probably butchering it, but you can tell the quality of a tree by the fruits.

00:52:31.621 --> 00:52:32.360
It bears

00:52:32.581 --> 00:52:33.221
Yes,

00:52:33.891 --> 00:52:52.121
so basically what you're saying is yeah pay attention to the fruits of your experiences whether it's meditation or dreams And if it's a rotten experience pay attention and There could be a maleficent source going on there

00:52:52.791 --> 00:53:04.635
Absolutely for sure and and it's gonna come we're gonna be fed There's an old saying, behest you angels, and angels you get, and behest you devils, and that's what you draw to yourself.

00:53:04.795 --> 00:53:27.416
We are going to draw the vibrations that resonate with us, and this is why in my experience, and people, Oh, this area, it's, it's horrible, and the vibrations are bad, and there's evil forces there, and I'll accompany these people, and none of that's there, and they'll turn around and go, Steve was there.

00:53:27.516 --> 00:53:30.266
I said, look, I just brought light into this place.

00:53:30.525 --> 00:53:35.126
You're looking at creepy things which are part of your imagination.

00:53:35.346 --> 00:53:36.485
Do they exist?

00:53:37.025 --> 00:53:37.876
Yes.

00:53:38.326 --> 00:53:45.615
How can we say that things in our imagination don't really exist when we're recognizing them?

00:53:46.085 --> 00:53:51.266
So it's the old thing that's the butterfly dreaming it's a human or it's a human dreaming it's a butterfly.

00:53:52.940 --> 00:53:56.610
Everything has a reality in our reality.

00:53:56.931 --> 00:54:03.621
And that's why if somebody says they see something, I may not see it, but they see it.

00:54:04.101 --> 00:54:07.670
So can you, can one say it doesn't exist?

00:54:08.070 --> 00:54:12.121
I mean, we're being esoteric here, but it has an existence.

00:54:12.880 --> 00:54:19.081
Because they, they see it or imagine it in our physical reality here.

00:54:19.201 --> 00:54:25.920
But now we're getting deeper into esoteric concepts, but that's what I believe.

00:54:26.530 --> 00:54:30.920
No, I like that, and I appreciate you took it there, um, because I know someone's thinking about that.

00:54:31.561 --> 00:54:35.291
And, um, There's something that I wanted to mention.

00:54:35.300 --> 00:54:37.851
Uh, I guess we'll, I'll circle around to it.

00:54:37.851 --> 00:54:49.380
I guess the one thing I wanted to mention is, um, as I help people with getting connect closer to their inner voice of knowing and understanding and calming them down.

00:54:49.811 --> 00:55:08.251
Um, as I, as I am certified in immersive meditation and guided meditation, I see a lot of what I understand, In dreams being incorporated in my conversations, and I I do see the crossover and I appreciate you elaborating on that as well.

00:55:08.581 --> 00:55:14.101
And I see it as, um, I actually have a telecommunications background.

00:55:14.101 --> 00:55:18.391
So I'm thinking about cell phones and, you know, Oh, you need to get the next phone.

00:55:18.400 --> 00:55:23.041
It's the, you know, It's, we're going from 3G to 4G, and now 4G to 5G, right?

00:55:23.360 --> 00:55:38.650
And outside of the whole EMF stuff, um, just thinking about the pureness of how that works, the higher the frequency, right, the, the faster it is, and, uh, the more information you have access to, and that you can process.

00:55:39.360 --> 00:55:46.481
And when you fill yourself with garbage, low level, disharmonic frequencies, thought forms, right?

00:55:46.900 --> 00:55:52.891
You're going to pull your capacity to process life, yourself, as a person, down.

00:55:53.271 --> 00:56:01.300
And doing things like meditation will, you know, Speed up and, you know, the analogy would be take you to 6G.

00:56:01.331 --> 00:56:02.670
Some people are at 7G.

00:56:02.710 --> 00:56:04.510
Those people we don't see as often.

00:56:04.521 --> 00:56:06.971
They're in the mountains somewhere, so they don't want to deal with you.

00:56:07.891 --> 00:56:15.400
Um, and then I feel like dreams is kind of like shutting down anything below 7G.

00:56:15.451 --> 00:56:23.170
But because it's not functional for you in your waking life, it's like getting you access to 5G and up.

00:56:23.860 --> 00:56:32.981
While you're sleeping because you're not processing anything, but then for you to understand it when you wake up, it's got to make sense somehow, right?

00:56:32.990 --> 00:56:42.501
It's, it's, it's, it's using, you know, 3, 4, 5, whatever you use during the day to grasp the information that you're accessing.

00:56:42.541 --> 00:56:49.311
And then when we wake up, and if you're journaling like you and I, you've done it for a lot more years than me.

00:56:49.701 --> 00:56:58.195
Uh, You, you try to write down Whatever makes sense, right and let's go with that Yes, am I like good with that analogy?

00:56:58.545 --> 00:57:05.646
Yes, and and people have to realize because one thing we haven't addressed is people say what about what about nightmares?

00:57:05.885 --> 00:57:11.751
and spooky things and You've got to realize that, again, it's very, very symbolic.

00:57:11.751 --> 00:57:15.331
And if you die in a dream, it's not that you're going to die.

00:57:15.521 --> 00:57:18.900
It means you're dying into a higher consciousness.

00:57:19.130 --> 00:57:24.911
Now, I'm going to share some things, but it's, with dream interpretation, but that's not in my book.

00:57:24.981 --> 00:57:35.215
But one of the greatest books, I believe, on Good Simplistic Dream Interpretation is Dreams, Your Magic Mirror by L.

00:57:35.215 --> 00:57:35.465
C.

00:57:35.496 --> 00:57:35.806
C.

00:57:35.806 --> 00:57:42.576
Christ, where she took, uh, symbology out of the Edgar Cayce, uh, readings.

00:57:42.726 --> 00:57:53.286
Edgar Cayce was an incredible, uh, mystic and one of the most documented, um, mystics of all time with his accuracy.

00:57:53.655 --> 00:58:13.101
Uh, that book, Dreams, Your Magic Mirror, is interesting because it says if you have a dream of a German shepherd, let's say, it will have one meaning, but if you are a policeman who works, I, I don't know what to call it, with the, with the police dogs, It's going to mean something slightly different.

00:58:13.101 --> 00:58:19.391
So I like that book because it's not just saying this is what it is all the time.

00:58:19.420 --> 00:58:27.791
However, throughout history and all of the world, a house generally is meant states of consciousness.

00:58:28.666 --> 00:58:35.436
And cars, for some, mean the physical body, the vehicle that's driving.

00:58:35.655 --> 00:58:46.416
So if things are falling apart on your car, a wise person will say, Jeez, maybe I better take a look at what I'm doing, what I'm eating, how my body is going.

00:58:46.806 --> 00:58:50.065
And of course, the greatest reoccurring dream of all time.

00:58:50.365 --> 00:58:51.945
We're in school again.

00:58:52.440 --> 00:58:54.460
And we're not prepared for the subject.

00:58:55.101 --> 00:59:00.541
And you see the clock almost to the hour, and you look down at your paper, and you have nothing.

00:59:00.541 --> 00:59:02.045
It's like I've had that.

00:59:02.045 --> 00:59:03.175
I'm screwed.

00:59:03.436 --> 00:59:14.266
I am, it just, it's referring to the preparation in our life and it may be referring to some, something in our field that we haven't quite addressed.

00:59:14.266 --> 00:59:25.585
So there are universal dreams, but I'm talking even beyond those basic symbolic dreams that we have.

00:59:26.076 --> 00:59:34.286
A telephone to all dimensions, all levels.

00:59:36.405 --> 00:59:37.456
I like that analogy.

00:59:37.576 --> 00:59:42.755
It's a telephone to connect you, but it's more than just your phone.

00:59:42.755 --> 00:59:44.356
It's like you, right?

00:59:44.356 --> 00:59:46.525
Teleportation, virtual, and all that.

00:59:46.726 --> 00:59:47.746
That's true.

00:59:48.275 --> 00:59:51.681
Trying to figure out and fit the universe in your mind.

00:59:52.061 --> 00:59:56.740
Back to that analogy, I, that's one thing I wanted to elaborate on.

00:59:56.851 --> 01:00:09.971
I like that story of the madman trying to put the ocean in a hole so he could see the bottom versus trying to fit the universe in your mind.

01:00:09.981 --> 01:00:23.516
And my, what I saw that As immediately was, um, you have extremes in society right now where you have somebody that just wants to, um, live a good, let's say, live a good life.

01:00:23.536 --> 01:00:30.806
You have somebody that wants to, like, you have the seeker, right, that wants to know and get to the bottom of everything.

01:00:31.255 --> 01:00:42.626
And then you have the person that, um, I guess the madman would be to, I think, I guess the opposite of that, which would be, you don't care, maybe you're just chasing after the superficial stuff.

01:00:42.626 --> 01:00:42.695
I don't know.

01:00:42.885 --> 01:00:43.295
Right?

01:00:43.775 --> 01:00:55.465
And everybody is on the extreme, on the opposite ends, and the people that are happier, usually right in the middle, like they're just flowing with it, they're accepting it as it goes.

01:00:55.505 --> 01:00:56.746
They're living in the moment.

01:00:57.146 --> 01:00:57.686
Right, exactly.

01:00:57.686 --> 01:00:58.235
They're living in the

01:00:58.235 --> 01:01:22.936
moment, where the person is getting all the water out of the Mediterranean, That's going to be a lot of work, and you can say down the line, he's going to see his hole's not big enough, so then he's got to put in a deeper hole, and one thing and another, never realizing, geez, the water is there, and the blue green is not the bottom, it's the reflection of the light with, with the water molecules.

01:01:23.255 --> 01:01:29.876
Um, but my basic philosophy, and the philosophy of the ancients, is the earth is a schoolroom.

01:01:30.581 --> 01:01:33.710
And you have various states of awareness.

01:01:33.871 --> 01:01:39.231
I don't want to use the word levels, but for people, you've got grade 1 through 6.

01:01:39.360 --> 01:01:46.411
Well, a 6th grader could look at a 1st or 2nd grader and go, What, what is this person doing?

01:01:46.411 --> 01:01:48.831
He's got, doing this, it's stupid.

01:01:48.840 --> 01:01:52.360
He's pulling the pigtails of the girl in front of him.

01:01:52.740 --> 01:01:55.621
Um, you have such a variety.

01:01:56.090 --> 01:01:58.561
of states of awareness on this earth plane.

01:01:58.971 --> 01:02:22.240
And in my parlance, when somebody learns the dynamics of what you're here to learn on the earth, you graduate, but you have so many gradations of awareness on this planet that there's people, they don't care, they'll kill other humans, they'll kill animals, and then you got people, oh my gosh, there's an ant.

01:02:22.431 --> 01:02:26.440
I'm not gonna take that life away from this ant or this spider.

01:02:27.306 --> 01:02:35.056
We're all in this reality at the same time, and that's why I don't believe it's a one shot deal.

01:02:35.246 --> 01:02:35.896
I'm sorry.

01:02:35.896 --> 01:02:37.985
It's not one and done here.

01:02:38.275 --> 01:02:46.445
It is a schoolroom where you learn lessons through challenges and opportunities that come into your sphere.

01:02:46.826 --> 01:03:22.385
This is how we grow, but how a first or second or third grader is going to face a challenge versus, and it used to be one through six, I don't know what the school's like, but for me it was one through six, and then seven through nine, and ten through twelve, but the point is, you have different states of awareness in the same sphere And people are never, I'm sorry, going to be thinking exactly the same when certain things take experience and just maturity.

01:03:22.826 --> 01:03:33.666
I'm not saying someone can't become instantly mature, but you're not going to have the whole culture, the whole planet, instantly, magically become college students.

01:03:34.005 --> 01:03:40.376
Um, which is why I don't ascribe to the belief that something magically is going to happen on Earth.

01:03:40.951 --> 01:03:43.570
We're all going to have incredible awareness.

01:03:44.800 --> 01:03:54.181
I think it's a beautiful thought, but that would be the equivalent of somebody coming to an elementary or junior high and going, You are now all college students.

01:03:54.481 --> 01:03:54.740
Right.

01:03:56.090 --> 01:03:59.860
It just, in the reality of the, uh, curriculums was easier for you to pass.

01:04:00.331 --> 01:04:00.831
In my opinion.

01:04:00.831 --> 01:04:01.360
That's a whole

01:04:01.360 --> 01:04:16.710
other, uh, Um, now let's say if anybody's still listening, we're an hour in, if anybody's still listening, it means that they're like more, more, more, more, more.

01:04:17.021 --> 01:04:29.510
So, um, I want to, uh, offer you, you mentioned a couple of things, uh, any, any tips from your perspective on anybody listening right now that's really curious about their dreams.

01:04:29.510 --> 01:04:37.121
Maybe they started a little bit of, uh, uh, journaling or maybe they're like, I don't, I don't really dream at all.

01:04:37.411 --> 01:04:40.860
And I have a hard time remembering them.

01:04:40.900 --> 01:04:44.460
Any, maybe any, a couple of tips for anybody that's sticking around right now?

01:04:44.481 --> 01:04:45.050
Well, science has

01:04:45.050 --> 01:04:51.061
proven everybody dreams an average of six dreams a night, whether you remember it or you don't.

01:04:51.561 --> 01:04:59.601
And if their sleep is interrupted, uh, they will have eight or nine to make up for the ones that they did not have.

01:04:59.971 --> 01:05:03.070
Uh, I have a very simple philosophy of life.

01:05:03.351 --> 01:05:07.490
And it came to me in a dream, so this would be a good way for us to sign off.

01:05:07.931 --> 01:05:13.260
It was right before a lecture that I was going to be giving in Sedona, and I had the following dream.

01:05:13.681 --> 01:05:18.240
I was walking along with all the truth seekers of the world.

01:05:18.626 --> 01:05:20.835
They weren't following me, we were walking together.

01:05:21.135 --> 01:05:27.146
And in the distance I saw a woman dressed in blue holding a microphone.

01:05:28.085 --> 01:05:32.376
And there was a fog or smoke that was kind of covering her.

01:05:32.735 --> 01:05:38.646
And as I got close with everybody, it was the goddess Sophia, the goddess of wisdom.

01:05:39.275 --> 01:05:47.806
And to my right or her left were horseshoe stands with people who've written books, and seminars, and multi level courses.

01:05:48.320 --> 01:05:56.061
Smoke was coming and fog out of their mouths, covering absolute truth.

01:05:56.090 --> 01:05:59.331
Now I'm not saying they were wrong, I'm just saying they were covering.

01:06:00.170 --> 01:06:06.391
And I thought, what are us people supposed to do if they are partially covering?

01:06:06.661 --> 01:06:10.641
And a big wind blew off the ocean, and this is a true dream.

01:06:10.851 --> 01:06:21.146
And I heard the following, All that one needs To reach greater enlightenment is a beautiful heart, an open mind, and a humble spirit.

01:06:22.485 --> 01:06:24.045
You don't need the courses.

01:06:24.326 --> 01:06:25.175
You don't need them.

01:06:25.485 --> 01:06:30.615
A beautiful heart, an open mind, and a humble spirit.

01:06:31.735 --> 01:06:33.936
And it's done with love, with compassion.

01:06:34.510 --> 01:06:36.451
in love and through love.

01:06:36.701 --> 01:06:50.561
And so I created this little coin just as a reminder of that, which I have a little necklace and I hand them out to, uh, to people who I feel exemplify that.

01:06:51.141 --> 01:06:53.210
We do not need the gurus.

01:06:53.231 --> 01:06:59.876
We do not need anything, but to be coming from the highest place You just said it.

01:06:59.976 --> 01:07:06.106
You're going to vibrate and draw to you beauty and love and truth.

01:07:06.766 --> 01:07:10.755
And if we're looking to manipulate or control, guess what?

01:07:11.416 --> 01:07:13.876
You're going to draw all of those vibrations.

01:07:14.226 --> 01:07:15.246
It was Manly P.

01:07:15.255 --> 01:07:21.650
Hall, a great philosopher, who said, Whatever you resonate to, you're going to attract.

01:07:21.900 --> 01:07:39.300
So if you are a negative, down person, you will draw all of that negativity from your local area, city, state, country, world, universe.

01:07:39.971 --> 01:07:45.740
All the negativity will vibrate like a tuning fork, and that's what you will draw.

01:07:45.960 --> 01:07:56.916
So, a beautiful heart, an open mind, and a humble spirit, and Or as Paracelsus in the 1500s said, You want to learn about any herb or plant?

01:07:57.226 --> 01:08:11.755
Sit quietly, humbly in front, and just ask, Can you share with me the attributes that will be the most helpful for me or other people?

01:08:12.016 --> 01:08:13.266
And they will be.

01:08:13.686 --> 01:08:15.306
Speak to you.

01:08:21.895 --> 01:08:22.345
Wow.

01:08:22.676 --> 01:08:24.595
And yes, and cool.

01:08:24.685 --> 01:08:25.386
And wow.

01:08:26.926 --> 01:08:27.445
No, I like it.

01:08:29.376 --> 01:08:30.076
Cool.

01:08:31.036 --> 01:08:35.685
I'm like, right after this call, I'm going to go outside and talk to my dying plants.

01:08:35.735 --> 01:08:36.416
There you go.

01:08:36.426 --> 01:08:37.015
Sorry.

01:08:37.176 --> 01:08:38.115
How can I help you?

01:08:39.445 --> 01:08:40.466
And it will work.

01:08:40.626 --> 01:08:46.636
But again, that guy was from the 1500s and Pythagoras was 500 BC.

01:08:46.845 --> 01:08:51.355
So I am not sharing anything that Steven Ross other than.

01:08:51.600 --> 01:08:55.060
Maybe somebody else had that dream, but that dream.

01:08:55.320 --> 01:08:59.530
Everything else I've shared is the wisdom teachings of all time.

01:09:00.291 --> 01:09:00.680
Wow.

01:09:01.100 --> 01:09:02.860
Wow, thank you for coming on.

01:09:02.900 --> 01:09:18.190
I mean, I appreciate you going and following with me in these rabbit holes and um questioning and discovering um So I I said it a couple of times like one thing here two things here.

01:09:18.211 --> 01:09:21.100
No Um, so as we close, I love that story.

01:09:21.100 --> 01:09:48.115

His universal microscope and why he died in the 70s and virtually every one of these machines that have built Should not be using the name reif because he did not build them And they are not following his original frequencies And we will share because I not only Have had his original universal reif microscope But as you know We currently have his Laboratory logbook of frequencies, and when you and I do this next time, it's going to be all, all original material from the 1920s and 1930s without the advertising hype and the misstatements that a lot of people have made calling themselves Rife frequency devices or other names, but
