Israel was Warmer and Wetter in Our Past?

From this interesting article by WorldNetDaily:

"When scientists revealed in 2008 that an analysis of rings on stalagmite from a cave near Jerusalem showed the climate of the region got drier shortly after the Roman dispersion of the Jews in A.D. 70, it was no surprise to Rabbi Menachem Kohen of Brooklyn... "

"Rabbi Kohen wrote that the land suffered an unprecedented, severe and inexplicable (by anything other than supernatural explanations) drought that lasted from the first century until the 20th – a period of 1,800 years" ... "

"Before the Jews entered Canaan, it was described in the Bible as a land flowing with milk and honey. If you read what Israel's climate and natural landscape was like from the time Joshua crossed the Jordan right up until the time of Jesus, it sounds like a heavily forested land. There were amazing crops raised by the people who inhabited the land when the Jews arrived. "

"For 1,800 years, it hardly ever rained in Israel. ..."

This scientific data coincides with the stories that my 2,800 year friend told me: it was much hotter and wetter 2,800 years ago in the Middle East than it is today. For more info on 2,800 years of eyewitness accounts of the weather around the world, espcailly around the Mediterranean Sea, then check out my forth coming book ...

A Pill That Will Help You Live to 100 ?

From a recent article by Donna Bowater in the Daily Express of the UK:

"A pill to help people live to 100 is set to "revolutionize" aging, experts said

The breakthrough has come after scientists identified three “super-genes”. People born with the genes are 20 times more likely to reach a century – and 80 per cent less likely to develop the senility disease Alzheimer’s."

...

"Life expectancy for men in the UK is 77, for women it is 82. At the same time nearly half a million Britons are affected by Alzheimer’s."

...

"Professor Judith Phillips, president of the British Society of Geron­tology, said the discovery would change how people look at growing old."

...

"Dr Barzilai, from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, said: “Because our centenarians have ­longevity genes, they are protected against many effects of the environment."

Obviously scientists are still interested in extending our lives; yet they are refusing to look into the "non-physical" aspects of achieving immortality. Perhaps if they could combine all the known knowledge into achieving immortality into a single "program" instead of a pill ...

Another Secret from an Immortal - The Holy Grail

I had a wonderful interview recently with Michael Vera of the "Late Night at the Midlands" radio show. During the interview I mentioned another secret from the 2,800 year old man whom I made contact with: his eyewitness description of the "Holy Grail". Or to be precise, the chalice used by Jesus Christ during the event now known as the "Last Supper".

What was so incredible about this "immortal secret" was the description that this super centenarian gave me matched exactly the description of this "Holy Grail" chalice I had remote viewed years earlier.

Ironically, I have also seen a picture of this chalice in a magazine describing some of the artifacts which the Vatican is currently storing in their "junk room".

While I am not ready yet to describe this historically famous artifact in detail yet, I can tell you my is none of the chalices shown in the movie "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" matched the description of the real chalice of the Last Supper from my research.

For more information, check out my interview with Michael Vera.

Researchers Link Calorie Intake to Lifespan and Preventing Cancer

University of Alabama researchers "have discovered that restricting consumption of glucose, the most common dietary sugar, can extend the life of healthy human-lung cells and speed the death of precancerous human-lung cells, reducing cancer's spread and growth rate." According to this UAB news release.


"These results further verify the potential health benefits of controlling calorie intake." Trygve Tollefsbol, Ph.D., D.O., said. "Our research indicates that calorie reduction extends the lifespan of healthy human cells and aids the body's natural ability to kill off cancer-forming cells."

The UAB team conducted its tests by growing both healthy human-lung cells and precancerous human-lung cells in laboratory flasks. The flasks were provided either normal levels of glucose or significantly reduced amounts of the sugar compound, and the cells then were allowed to grow for a period of weeks.

"In that time, we were able to track the cells' ability to divide while also monitoring the number of surviving cells. The pattern that was revealed to us showed that restricted glucose levels led the healthy cells to grow longer than is typical and caused the precancerous cells to die off in large numbers," Dr. Tollefsbol said.

In particular, the researchers found that two key genes were affected in the cellular response to decreased glucose consumption. The first gene, telomerase, encodes an important enzyme that allows cells to divide indefinitely. The second gene, p16, encodes a well known anti-cancer protein.

"Opposite effects were found for these genes in healthy cells versus precancerous cells. The healthy cells saw their telomerase rise and p16 decrease, which would explain the boost in healthy cell growth," Tollefsbol said. "The gene reactions flipped in the precancerous cells with telomerase decreasing and the anti-cancer protein p16 increasing, which would explain why these cancer-forming cells died off in large numbers."

The UAB research into the links between calorie intake, aging and the onset of diseases related to aging is thought to be a first of its kind given that it used the unique approach of testing human cells versus laboratory animals.

Sounds like science is catching up to what we are finding out from the Calorie Restricted Dieters (CRDs) and a 2,800 year old man.

Ben Abba to Appear on The X Zone Radio Show at 10PM EST on Thursday, January 7th

I just found out that I will be interviewed by Rob McConnell of The "X" Zone Radio Show Thursday evening / Thursday Evening at 10PM EST.

I have be a fan of the X Zone Radio Show for many years and I know of the variety of topics covered on the show. And I know Rob is a serious interviewer who I am sure will press me hard on the topic of finding a 2,800 year old man and the possibility of physical immortality for the rest of us.

The 'X' Zone Radio Show has been on the broadcast airwaves since 1993 investigating the world of the Paranormal and the science of Parapsychology The 'X' Zone Broadcast Network was formed in December 2009 to meet the growing demands of international broadcasters around the world wanting to being their audiences The 'X' Zone Radio & TV Show, hosted by the shows creator, host and executive producer, Rob McConnell

I am looking forward to invigorating interview.

Happy New Year & Latest on "Secrets of an Immortal - An Eyewitness Account of 2,800 Years of History" book release

We got really close to releasing our eBook version by Christmas. The process is sure taking me and my editors a lot longer I thought it would take. However our goal is to give you all the best product we possibly can give to you; hence the extra effort and time. Right now, my best guess is a few more weeks before we can release the eBook version to you and to our publishers.

As of now, everyone except for the international customers, should have received their copy of "Wake Up Moments of Inspiration" which I co-authored with Dr Wayne Dyer and several other authors. This is my free gift to any of you that have pre-ordered the book for your continued patience. For the international customers, my current plans are to include this free gist when I ship your book order to you.

Once the book is finally on its way to the publishers, I will focus on getting out the rest of the free gifts that I have planned to include with this pre-ordered book for all of you. One of the free gifts that I am planning to send out is a CD of some of the radio interviews and podcasts which I have completed over the past year.

Again, my heart felt thanks for your continued patience of “Secrets of an Immortal – An Eyewitness Account of 2,800 Years of History” book; and for your continued patience in receiving your book order.

And I wish blessings, good health, and abundance to all of you in 2010!

A Rebuttal to Those Against Life Extension, Human Longevity, and Physical Immortality.

I am often attacked by those believe "we" do not have enough resources to support the population that we have, by those who believe we have to "let die" or "kill off" our seniors to make room for our youth, by those who firmly believe in Zero Population Growth (ZPG), and by those who live in denial that a Creator (GOD) exists.

I can offer many rebuttals to all of these. Here is a short list:

1. Our planet is a "big" place, our universe is even bigger. There is an infinite amount of space to live and resources for us to survive, on a planet and in our universe if we are smart enough to find them and smart enough to use them intelligently.

2. In order to create a pyramid, we need a large base. To create an even bigger pyramid requires us to have an even bigger base. What this means is as our population expands, so can our means to develop more complex technology, create new energy sources, make better use of the resources that we have, feed more people with less resources. and reach the stars to find more of whatever we need to survive.

3. We need more senior citizens, centenarians, and super-centenarians to help our civilization stop making the same mistakes our predecessors made which we continue to relive. We need those long memories on how we survived the tough times, how we overcame diversity, those unwritten lessons of life, and those moral mistakes our grandparents tried and failed to do. This appears to be a common message I have received from those "ancients" that I have interviewed.

4. We will need more population for our species to survive. Yes, if a fatal disease or attack decimates our population (which is becoming more likely every day) and the more people we have when the attack occurs, the better the chances some will survive and perpetuate our species.

5. If you have any beliefs of a Creator, then you already know we have infinite abundance available for the asking. If you have a belief in higher lifeforms somewhere in our universe, then there has to be available resources in other parts of our universe which could be bartered for with them. In either case, the belief in limited resources is for those who possess "limited minds".

Remote Viewing & Remote Sending Immortals

I had another excellent interview with Dipali of "Awaken to Your Real Self Radio Show" yesterday. This radio show can be found on the Talk Shoe radio network.

However, this time the topic focused on my experiences learning how to perform "remote viewing" and my experiences with "remote sending" and how I used both techniques to successfully locate and make contact with super-centenarians; including real "immortals" living among us today.

I started the show describing how I discovered remote viewing and then began my training with Major Ed Dames to become a professional remote viewer. I also described with some details, my unusual experiences as I remote viewed various targets that Major Dames subjected me to. And then I described how I was taught by Major Dames, either intentionally or by accident, how
to perform "remote sending" and how incredible of a tool it was in my research.

Both incredible skills can be taught to anyone and I have experienced alot of successes using these tools. Check out Dipali's interview on the Talk Shoe radio network for even more details.

I have another interview scheduled this Saturday, December 5th on the "All We Are" radio show on the Blog Talk Radio network. I will review more secrets from these immortals and remote viewing this Saturday.

More Questions About My Research with a Real Immortal

Answers to questions to received which I would like to share with the rest of you:

How can one live their life to the fullest when they must give up their friends every decade or so to the spectre of death?

However, as this blog points out, a person who has survived almost 2,800 years on this planet, can live his life at its fullest, despite finding new friends and family every century or so. He considers making new relationships after losing old ones vital to his survival.

... Is a naive belief that immortality brings release from earthly fears?

It is not that immortality brings release from earthly fears; it is the release of earthly fears that bring about immortality. Walking barefoot on hot coals is the easiest way to prove this.


What if someone were physically immortal without ever being aware of their immortality mentally until a significant period of time had elapsed?

While I have still not obtained any DNA sample from this gentlemen yet, he has confined in me that none of his offspring ever achieved immorality. So, unless he is a physical abnormality, it is unlikely his immortality is purely caused by having the "right genes" at the right time.

While his story to me was that he was not aware of his immortality right away, he did reveal a few tidbits that suggest he was mentally prepared for immortality at a young age (i.e. avoided attending any funerals).


I would however hypothesize to you that the repetitive grief of losing friends and loved ones over time can be debilitating rather than stimulating to survival. Exposure to grief casts a heavy pallor on one's soul. Repeatedly, it can drag one down into the very depths of hell itself.

I totally agree that the repetitive grief of losing friends and family members takes its toll on all of us. This has been, and will continue to be, an important item of my research with this man.

He appears to treat each loss as someone who has left his life on a long vacation as oppose to losing someone to death. This is a very difficult lesson for me, but I am attempting to apply this in my own life and observer others who have done the same.

So far through my research, it appears to me that physical immortality is achieved through "programming", or more precisely, "reprogramming" rather than a physical gene or a powerful drug or some kind of incantation. I will keep discussing my research further through this blog and other media that I have access to.


Liara Covert sent me a list of questions to answer to get our discussion going. Even though most of the questions truly deserves a lengthy answer, I have attached as a brief of answer as I can give right now.

1) In your research, have you encountered female immortals? (beings in
female bodies).

1 that is near 160 years of age.

If not, have you heard tell of them? Why or why not?

Why only 1 woman so far ... I can only speculate at this time.


2) Do immortals as you know them consciously interconnect amongst
themselves?

Another shocker ... no!


That is, how do they sense one another?

No, they do not.


Telepathy is one skill that human beings are awakening to within on a
wider scale. This is revolutionizing dialogue. Is this something
immortals in your research use widely?

Not sure, I have evidence of some or partial telepathy; but not fully
telepathic.


3) You say your work background is in the financial sector. What sort of
impact does research into longevity and super-centenarians have on your
view of your livelihood and your sense of true self?

A very positive one once I applied my knowledge of "health abundance"


4) Do you sense you (as a "modern" man) have more of an impact on the
immortals you discover or, would you say they have more of an impact on
your conscious awakening?

I have always sensed that they have a greater impact on me and often
worried how could i return the favor, in so way. Now, as I discussed on
today's show, I can see a possible way to have some positive impact on
them as well.


Why?

When the student is ready the teacher will appear; or in our case,
another enlighten being that will solve a problem that needs to be solved.


5) What advice can you offer a person who wants to live forever but does
not wish to trade his soul for immortality?

Start each morning stating firmly, clearly, and from the heart: "I am
an immortal". Reading my blogs & books, listening to my interviews will
help even more.


6) As you sense and accept you live forever, how does this change your
priorities? That is, what lifestyle and belief shifts do you notice
within yourself?

As I stated in interview, my priorities to eat healthier, to reduce the
stress in my life, to choose less stressful work has become a higher
priority for me.


7) How do you see science fiction influences what human beings believe
or disbelieve about lifespans?

In some cases, I believe science fiction has opened the doors and minds
within all of us, to ideas that were "impossible" years ago.


8) More and more people speak of internal energy shifts, and raising
consciousness of abilities they did not consciously know or accept.
Other than evolving views about immortality, what shifts do you sense
within yourself?

More love, less fear, more confidence, less worries, more abundance,
less lack, more energy, less fatigue in my life.


9) How does your research into immortality invite you to face and
overcome different levels of fear and illusion?

Fear of death is a very controlling part of our lives; without that
fear, we feel more free, and act even free-er.


10) What kinds of implications do you sense in society, based on the
information on immortality you are uncovering?

Intense fear of the possibility that immortality is possible has been
quite shocking. The possibility of removing the fear of death is even
more fearful to those who believe death, in particular a shorter lifespan benefits society.

A Gift to be Thankful for - "How to Stay Young"

As my Thanksgiving's gift to all of you, I would like to offer you this gift, or should a say gifts. It is a popular story on how to stay young. First the story, then a little background on the story:

Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we’re kids? If you’re less than 10 years old, you’re so excited about aging that you think in fractions. “How old are you?” … “I’m four and a half!” You’re never thirty-six and a half. You’re four and a half, going on five! That’s the key.

You get into your teens, now they can’t hold you back. You jump to the next number, or even a few ahead: “How old are you?” …”I’m gonna be 16!” You could be 13, but hey, you’re gonna be 16! And then the greatest day of your life . . . you become 21. Even the words sound like a ceremony . . . YOU BECOME 21. YESSSS!!!

But then you turn 30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk! He TURNED; we had to throw him out. There’s no fun now, you’re Just a sour-dumpling. What’s wrong? What’s changed?

You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you’re PUSHING 40. Whoa! Put on the brakes, it’s all slipping away. Before you know it, you REACH 50 and your dreams are gone.

But wait!!! You MAKE it to 60. You didn’t think you would!

So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50 and MAKE it to 60. You’ve built up so much speed that you HIT 70! After that it’s a day-by-day thing; you HIT Wednesday! You get into your 80s and every day is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch; you TURN 4:30; you REACH bedtime. And it doesn’t end there. Into the 90s, you start going backwards; “I Was JUST 92.”

Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again. “I’m 100 and a half!”

May you all make it to a healthy 100 and a half!!

HOW TO STAY YOUNG

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay “them.”

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.

3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. “An idle mind is the devil’s workshop.” And the devil’s name is Alzheimer’s.

4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.

6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround yourself with what you love, whether it’s family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.

8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9. Don’t take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county; to a foreign country but NOT to where the guilt is.

10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

This story has been commonly attributed to the late George Carlin; however others claim that parts of it really came from Larry Miller. Regardless who wrote it, or if it was divinely inspired, these words have the ring of truth. Truth in improving our lives, truth in extending our lives, and the truth in being thankful for what we have and what we can give to others.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
