Solar Eclipse Talk with Devon Landis

1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,000
Welcome to another edition of
the Urancha Radio Podcast and

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,680
today we're going to talk about
the upcoming solar eclipse.

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,440
And we have joining us a man by
the name of Devin Landis and he

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:13,160
is a Urancha book reader and
he's also part of the

5
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,400
International Fellowship
Committee with the fellowship

6
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:19,720
and present head of Yaya, which
is the youth and young adults

7
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,160
organization that studies and
shares the Urancha book.

8
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:28,120
And he's got some insights about
this upcoming solar eclipse and

9
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,880
its relevance and some great
takeaways.

10
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,640
So joining us this time up is
Devin Landis on the Urantia

11
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:44,880
Radio podcast.
So I've always been curious to

12
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,720
ask people who are more
scientific minded to me, how

13
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:51,440
does the general science of the
Urantia Book hold up in your

14
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:52,880
opinion?
Oh, it's great.

15
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,600
It enfranchises the mind, I
would say, like with the

16
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:04,319
universal mother spirit living
in each creature and then maybe

17
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,800
even paradisical patterns in the
in the plants, in the trees

18
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,440
especially.
I'm always curious as to how

19
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,240
they interpret the Ant your
antubook.

20
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,400
Are they generally pleased with
its like the way that it

21
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,760
describes evolution?
Does it make intellectual sense

22
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,200
what they're saying?
Yeah, I think a good kicker is

23
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:28,520
you could look at chemistry, the
relationship between the

24
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:33,600
periodic elements, and
envisioned that as relationship

25
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:38,400
stories told by the architects
of the Master universe long,

26
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,920
long, long ago.
Somebody sent me a thing at

27
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,480
PowerPoint and it's all it says
is God and it's a PowerPoint and

28
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,600
it shows all these parallel,
like, you know, the intricacies

29
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,880
of the zebra, you know, or how
cells are formed or it's just an

30
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:59,000
amazing thing, even on a
molecular level, why things move

31
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,360
around at all.
I mean, what makes this move

32
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,120
over there and get this, It's
like this unseen forest that

33
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,880
surrounds everybody, you know,
that I there's so much

34
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,480
satisfaction that I get like you
in the Urancho book because of

35
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,640
that very reason.
It really makes you think about

36
00:02:17,640 --> 00:02:21,680
how things are structured.
So the reason I had Devin on the

37
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,520
show, Devin Landis, long time
your anchovy reader, you're are

38
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,000
you in the group that's going to
go to the See the Eclipse coming

39
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,440
up on April 9th?
Yeah, yeah.

40
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,200
Or April 8th, sorry.
And you, you've got some unique

41
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,160
perspective and I don't even
know what it is.

42
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,120
I have my perspective and you
know, for the last seven years

43
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,800
in my head I've been thinking
maybe there's going to be a

44
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,880
rapture or maybe there's going
to be a global disaster or

45
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,280
something is happening right now
on Earth where we're all being

46
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,320
tested.
And I feel like we're in a kind

47
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,440
of a seven-year period of
something.

48
00:02:56,920 --> 00:02:59,920
So let's.
Yeah, so let's, let's go back

49
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:03,800
for people who aren't aware.
But the first eclipse or the

50
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,240
last great eclipse of the United
States was the one in 2017, and

51
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,840
it happened on Jesus's birthday,
according to the Urantia Book on

52
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,840
August 21st.
Some of us, including Halbert

53
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,440
Katson, who's been on this
program a few times, he brought

54
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:22,640
to me that the the next solar
eclipse will happen on Jesus's

55
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:25,040
resurrection day, which is April
8th.

56
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,240
And that the two inter
intersection, the two eclipses

57
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:34,080
intersect at a place called Bald
Knob Cross in in in southern

58
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,600
Illinois.
And there's enough dots there to

59
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,840
kind of make you go away.
What's going on here, You know.

60
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,560
So how did you get involved in
and what's your interest in in

61
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,920
this phenomena?
I'll throw a correction, which I

62
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,800
think is right.
I think Resurrection Day is the

63
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,120
9th right?
And that's correct.

64
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:55,520
I asked Hal and I wasn't sure,
but I came to a conclusion of my

65
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:00,360
own about why the apes, the
mortal, the mortal perspective

66
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,960
naturally craves or rejoices in
the resurrection, because it's a

67
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,760
message for us as to you know
what what we could expect.

68
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,360
And from the cosmic perspective,
from Nebadon's perspective, I

69
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,920
think the day of the tomb, which
is the eclipse day, is probably

70
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,640
the most wonderful.
Because for already eternal

71
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,200
beings they still probably have
a lot of questions as to where

72
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,040
was Michael during that time?
Like did he go to Sonarrington

73
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,400
or I'm not sure which of those
paradise worlds or.

74
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:37,120
So that is why, if you were to
ask me why did the second

75
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,400
eclipse assuming that they were
timed like intelligently by the

76
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,160
by the controllers, why didn't
it occur on resurrection day?

77
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,320
I'll say that I think the day of
the tomb is like maybe the most

78
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,720
mysterious when you look at
Nebadon as a whole.

79
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,520
Yeah, I think you're right.
Because they actually admit in

80
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,360
that paper, which I just
recently read, where they say we

81
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,360
really have no idea what Jesus
did for that 36 hours.

82
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,800
We don't know where it was.
And it is a great mystery.

83
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,720
You know, we can all sort of
come up with our own.

84
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,800
I'm sure you could ask 100
different priests or ministers

85
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,000
and they'd all give you an
answer.

86
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,080
And well, he went to the bosom
of the Father.

87
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,800
He went to the right hand to
gain power of the of the

88
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,160
universe.
So what does that mean he he

89
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,080
got, did he get the embrace?
It does mention, however, and I

90
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,920
was just reading this in paper
129 on the human Jesus.

91
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:34,400
It just it it does say that you
know the life of Jesus as it was

92
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,440
completed had been fully
approved by the Father.

93
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,160
So he was unqualifiably happy
with the results.

94
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,040
So it's possible maybe that's
what happened during that that

95
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,600
period, you know, what do you
think?

96
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,520
So what's the significance to
that?

97
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:50,760
And the eclipse?
Why?

98
00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:53,160
Why is the eclipse?
What do you think it's a sign of

99
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,600
what?
What do you think is, is is

100
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,560
underlying in this are they
sending a message?

101
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,840
What?
I think it's sort of a just a

102
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:06,400
celebratory, Worshipful
situation set up by some power

103
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:11,600
controllers or archangels of
archangels or some beings in

104
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:17,240
Ebedon or just beings in our
solar system that could have the

105
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,000
power to move planets.
Or you know, Jesus said if you

106
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,560
have faith, you can move
mountain.

107
00:06:24,280 --> 00:06:27,920
So I think they've coordinated
it somehow geographic or

108
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:35,440
geometry geographically just for
just as a Worshipful recognition

109
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,600
and the fact is you know the
intersection occurs in the state

110
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,040
that the revelation has been
delivered, so.

111
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,360
I'm hearing things in the
Christian community too.

112
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,680
They're saying it's the Rapture.
You hearing anything?

113
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,920
About that.
Well, my Christian background

114
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:57,440
and then which I, you know, the
UV upgraded me and then I don't

115
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,840
neglect the old.
So I sort of, I sort of looked

116
00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:06,400
at 2030 as maybe a significant
date because it's a 2000 year

117
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:12,480
anniversary at the Christ
resurrection and at that or

118
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,880
yeah, at that time Gabriel and
the angels, they resurrected the

119
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:22,000
the dead and there could be like
a millennial resurrection of you

120
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,640
know, all of so many of our
loved ones who are ostensibly or

121
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:31,360
as far as we know sleeping in
the grave could be upcoming in

122
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,720
just a few short years. 2030 is
the the millennial time.

123
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:41,840
So that's where my most sort of
prophetic attitude looks stored.

124
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:47,160
But I definitely think that
stuff that you mentioned, like

125
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,840
the war in Ukraine, I think
that's one of the trumpets in

126
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,320
the Book of Revelation.
It says where men have tails

127
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,760
like scorpions that emit smoke
and they go around, you know,

128
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,400
assaulting each other.
Not that there haven't been

129
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:07,160
worse in every generation, but I
do believe that we are sort of

130
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:11,600
at the point of the needle or
the point of the wedge in in a

131
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:17,640
time space where that it's going
to turn out good in the end.

132
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:23,400
But it does involve
tribulations, which I think the

133
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,960
Book of Revelation covers pretty
well or in cat it talks about.

134
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,640
I think 911 was a trumpet.
Because you know, when John the

135
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:39,080
Apostle was on Patmos, he got a
revelation from archangels, and

136
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,520
one of them one of the trumpets,
that he wrote down what he saw,

137
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,080
he said a mighty mountain
falling into the sea.

138
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,000
And those buildings were right
on the like right on the water

139
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,640
when you look at the aerial
view, so.

140
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,160
And then it.
Turns 1/3 of the water red.

141
00:08:56,560 --> 00:09:00,320
I remember reading in
Revelations about the the IT

142
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,080
describes people watching this
happening and describes them in

143
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:05,720
their boats and in the harbors
and everything.

144
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,480
And I thought, well, that sounds
like Hudson, you know, or

145
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:09,720
whatever.
The right.

146
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,240
Looking up at the World Trade
Center as they're coming down,

147
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,120
they thought it had occurred to
be.

148
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,280
Yeah.
Well, then then, of course,

149
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,840
there's Apopka, which is the,
which is another interesting

150
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,880
thing.
The, the asteroid that's coming

151
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,000
right toward us.
And it's supposed to hit.

152
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,640
Yeah.
And that'll be on February 13th,

153
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:32,120
which is a Friday, and that's
February 13th, 2029.

154
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,560
Now, they first told us that it
would only come within 20

155
00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:38,720
kilometers or 20,000 kilometers.
Now they're saying that it'll

156
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,520
come close enough to where it'll
actually be at the same distance

157
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,000
of where the satellites are.
So there's all kinds of.

158
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,920
Now, I'm not a physical
scientist, but I know that mass

159
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,160
can is attractive.
And if you got this comment, you

160
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,960
know how much would it have to
deviate?

161
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,640
And it's going to go right over
America, too, right over North

162
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,600
America at like 613 at night
East Coast time.

163
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,440
Isn't that interesting?
And I And then I'm thinking, OK,

164
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,080
well, maybe that's that to me.
I almost feel like, and I don't

165
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,240
mean to say this, but I almost
feel like something will break

166
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,200
and society is going to have to
regroup in a big way.

167
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,840
And unfortunately, I feel that a
lot of people, I mean you think

168
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:22,440
about it for a second, Devin.
You know, there is a point in

169
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,880
human history where there were
only 100 people left of the the

170
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,920
human, the, the fully developed,
you know, human.

171
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,760
There's only 100 of us left.
I mean, there have been multiple

172
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,720
times where our, our societies
have been wiped out.

173
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,240
You know, the great flood, when
the isthmus broke it, whatever

174
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:45,080
that is Gibraltar and the
floodings and then the floodings

175
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,560
during Noah's time with the the
ice and the snow falling and and

176
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:51,920
everything.
So you know, it's not like God's

177
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:56,000
going to step in there and save
us, you know, because that's not

178
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,320
that.
That would be against his rules,

179
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,920
you know, right.
I mean, he would save us from

180
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,400
ourselves, but not save us from
just dying.

181
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:09,240
Does this sound cryptic to you?
I mean, do you think he would

182
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,560
intervene and stick his hand
there and prevent this?

183
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,200
Or would he go, OK, it's 2029,
I'm looking at the way humanity

184
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,880
is going right now and maybe I
don't want to save him.

185
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,320
Sure.
I'm glad you have a good sense

186
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:27,040
of humor because you know, this
is what's going on in my head,

187
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,320
you know?
I was thinking we could just

188
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,320
maybe solicit the Grays to come
and use one of their shunting

189
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,760
mechanisms.
Yeah, that's true.

190
00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:42,000
That's true.
They were delighted in a project

191
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,920
like that.
Yeah.

192
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,560
So being a relatively new, a
quick question, just as one

193
00:11:48,560 --> 00:11:51,880
Erantia book reader to another.
Did you have a lot of problems

194
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,560
growing up Christian?
Was it a big leap for you?

195
00:11:56,560 --> 00:11:59,280
Because I've met a lot of
Christians that read the Erantia

196
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,840
Book and they go, that's not for
me, you know?

197
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,720
Sorry, I'm not, I'm not going
there.

198
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,880
Sure.
I had sort of stepped aside from

199
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:11,600
Christianity because of the
social maybe obligations.

200
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:16,080
And yeah, I was still, I was, I
went to a Christian college and

201
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,680
after two years of that, I felt
I should go to basically the

202
00:12:20,680 --> 00:12:25,160
third world or somewhere outside
of the US So that's where I

203
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,840
found the UB.
I I think I was maybe destined

204
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,360
to, or I was blessed to, I
think.

205
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:37,840
And then I did, you know, make
AI basically returned to God

206
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:43,000
spiritually through prayer and
like even in a given moment that

207
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,600
I can recall when it happened.
And then after that I started

208
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,280
reading the UV.
Yeah.

209
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:53,760
What was the point where it it
kind of got you everybody has a

210
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,080
gotcha moment.
Was there any particular passage

211
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,840
or something going on that that
sort of connected with you, with

212
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,000
your ranch Ibuka?
I know for me it was probably

213
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,800
when I read the first reading of
the life and teachings of Jesus,

214
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:11,040
when he gets to paper 155, I
think, and he's talking about

215
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:16,120
how you know, you can, you know,
not everybody's path the same.

216
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,800
Not everybody is made to serve
as a priest.

217
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,600
If you, if you've got God in
your life, you know, then

218
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,880
everything is sacred.
That kind of, and it was that

219
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,960
sort of approach that really got
me into like, wow, it really

220
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:33,960
touched.
Me, you know, I was, I was

221
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,880
living in a church, in a
apartment above the church, and

222
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:42,280
going to UMass Amherst and
reading the book like, very

223
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,280
diligently to try and get
through it.

224
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:49,240
And so many things were novel.
But I do think I remember, or I

225
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,680
do remember the sort of making a
supreme decision at one point,

226
00:13:54,840 --> 00:14:01,560
just wanting to be a part of the
God's plan on a personal, on a

227
00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:04,520
way that would involve me.
And that was so thrilling.

228
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:09,360
So I think that was my moment.
But what got me to that moment

229
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:14,080
was other people who I saw
reading it and or other people

230
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:15,720
who are already interested in
it.

231
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:20,920
So the community, the community
wins or long?

232
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:30,520
How did they come across to you?
Just like balanced and logical

233
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:36,960
and sort of picking off where I
guess Christianity couldn't or

234
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:41,960
didn't answer some things, but
then being real individuals in

235
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:46,240
the world, so all those things
are appealing characteristics.

236
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,480
Do you have people in your
family who also have been turned

237
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,160
on to the book, or do you have
any friends that you've turned

238
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,120
the book on to and have success
with that?

239
00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:00,280
Sure, yeah, yeah, that's good.
Yeah.

240
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,960
Talking about community and
community, inspiring people.

241
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:10,320
If I could do a plug for a
project I'm working on.

242
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,920
Yeah, it's.
It's like a six year calendar

243
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:19,480
that would start this fall or
autumn reading the book, one

244
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:24,240
section a day and only during
the five work days.

245
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:28,480
And then with two week breaks or
yeah, two week breaks during

246
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,840
Christmas and New Year's for six
years.

247
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,920
And it gets us through the whole
book and making up an image

248
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,840
that's like a calendar that you
could cross off dates.

249
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:44,360
So yeah, that's going to be my
new project.

250
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,760
Well, you might as well tell
everybody how to get a hold of

251
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,720
you so that if you want to maybe
commensurate with others who

252
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,240
would join you on that, you
know.

253
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,720
Sure, yeah.
Might be releasing it like

254
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,280
through ya, ya youth and young
adults.

255
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:05,400
Yeah with the fellowship.
But I also I just got the domain

256
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,600
called You read through the
letter you read and then through

257
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,600
THRU dot com.
So I'm going to post the image

258
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,640
up there and I'll just promote
it at conferences.

259
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,920
The essence would be to have an
actual calendar that you could X

260
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:24,160
off, but I think people might do
like a reading group as well.

261
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:29,400
Daily reading on maybe Facebook?
Or Zoom or something like that.

262
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:30,720
Yeah, maybe.
I don't know.

263
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,400
Right.
Well, there's better ways for

264
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:33,600
people to connect.
Yeah.

265
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,480
Do you go to a number of the
conferences?

266
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,080
And if you do, give me a report,
what, what?

267
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,600
What's got everybody excited
these days?

268
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,080
I haven't been to a U AI1 in a
long time, but going to go to

269
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,800
Baltimore here in just about two
weeks, so that should be great.

270
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,000
Yeah.
I talked to a woman who came

271
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,280
back from the World Religions
Conference and I think a

272
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:03,680
gentleman by the name of Byron
who also went and and the the

273
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,040
report is that the people are
starting to get a little curious

274
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,640
about the Urancha book.
It's only taken them 100 years,

275
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,480
you know, but we're making
progress.

276
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:18,040
Nice.
You know, I'll tell you

277
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,079
something funny.
In the 80s and the 90s, when I

278
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,359
first started reading the book
and coming to grips with the

279
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,200
fact that it was a revelation of
epical proportions.

280
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,160
You know that.
I thought, well, you know,

281
00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:31,080
people aren't really hungry for
it right now.

282
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,000
It doesn't seem like.
And now you flat flash forward

283
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,800
to 2024.
And now I see why the book is

284
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,600
relevant.
I'll just leave it at that.

285
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,240
Yeah, there's there's some
serious, I think, Albert,

286
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,960
there's some serious issues that
we have to address, you know,

287
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:53,240
And we are an emerging, evolving
civilization.

288
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,200
We're a special project for
Michael's home planet.

289
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,200
He has a vested interest in us
and our success.

290
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:03,520
Melchizedek, Adam and Eve
Caligasti would love for us to

291
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:08,400
fail, because if we fail that
means that Michael failed and

292
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,000
and we're seeing this emergence
of real evil in the world right

293
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,920
now.
And I think people are being

294
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,760
forced to make a choice.
Unfortunately, I don't think

295
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,400
they're making the right choice.
In many ways I don't know, but

296
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,600
it is an interesting time.
It's more interesting now than

297
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,480
it was 40 years ago.
And and I think I appreciate now

298
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,280
more than ever what the Urantia
Book's real value is, which is

299
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:35,720
to bring to equilibrium.
I mean, we are operating blind,

300
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,320
you know, every person on this.
Yeah, right.

301
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,760
I just picked up an interesting
crossover.

302
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:48,320
It's this book called The Book
of Thomas that is like a maybe a

303
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:53,920
Gnostic gospel or one that is in
It's not in the Bible and it's

304
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:58,120
only about 20 pages.
I didn't know when I was reading

305
00:18:58,120 --> 00:19:02,840
it whether it was like you be or
Christian.

306
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,840
It was sort of this bridge.
Because I think in the Jesus

307
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:12,000
papers, no kids in the midwers
who I like to call, they're like

308
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:19,160
Alvin and the Chipmunks.
Yeah, they they reference, I

309
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,840
think, this gospel according to
Thomas.

310
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,240
At one point in the book it says
when Thomas, 'cause you know

311
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,880
that Jesus and Thomas, I think
at one point they spend some

312
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,560
time together.
Yeah, And they like come back

313
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,080
and I'm not.
I hope I'm not confusing with

314
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,880
the John Mark story, but like,
Thomas is charged not to say

315
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,200
anything to them.
Yeah, I I I have a recollection

316
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,520
of that myself.
In the in the book of the Gospel

317
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,560
of Thomas that's recorded and he
says to the his fellows, he's

318
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,280
like, if I if I would tell you
what he told me, you guys would

319
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:58,040
stone me.
That's interesting.

320
00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:04,640
Yeah.
Yeah, Well, so.

321
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:06,880
Well, look, So what are you
going to, where are you going to

322
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,200
stay?
You're going to go to this

323
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:09,440
thing?
Are you going to go a couple of

324
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,640
days early?
What's the, what's the general

325
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,280
plan for your Rancho book
readers?

326
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,320
Do you know a lot of people that
are going to?

327
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,600
It's in Alton, right?
Alton, IL.

328
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,240
Like just on the edge of town or
something like that.

329
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,560
I've not seen it, but apparently
it's a beautiful cross.

330
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,480
It's over 1000 feet.
It's got the word peace at the

331
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,280
bottom.
I I actually googled a a few

332
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,720
photos and it's got a beautiful
picture.

333
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,400
I'm not sure if it's pointing.
Well, if it's looking eastward,

334
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,840
then it's looking over the
Shawnee National Forest, which

335
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,480
is a beautiful.
Do I have that right?

336
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,480
Do you know?
I think so, yeah.

337
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,520
Is Carbondale, IL maybe the
biggest town nearby?

338
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,200
Yeah, it is, yeah.
And and it's interesting because

339
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:57,480
Halbert brought up to my
attention that the prophet, one

340
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,520
of the few prophets mentioned by
name of the Urantia book, is

341
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,640
from the Shawnee tribe.
And it was.

342
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,800
And yeah, and he predicted the
downfall of the white man.

343
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:08,040
Really.
Yeah.

344
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,400
No, no, Oh no.
He denounced the vices of the

345
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,400
white of the white man and
predicted an eclipse in the

346
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,160
1800s.
And he was right.

347
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,080
In that, in that exact area,
yeah.

348
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:20,680
Yeah.
Interesting.

349
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,680
Yeah.
Well, any final thoughts you

350
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,120
want to share before we part
ways?

351
00:21:26,120 --> 00:21:27,440
It's been a pleasure meeting
you.

352
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,360
Likewise.
Yeah, sure.

353
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,080
Just I guess.
What do you want to get out of

354
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,440
the?
Do you do you believe perhaps

355
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,640
that that we're joining in this?
You said something earlier that

356
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,480
kind of stuck with me.
In this event, April 8th at the

357
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,200
at the Bald Knob Cross, a lot of
people are going, there's going

358
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,960
to be all kinds of people going,
I'm guessing probably a few

359
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,480
thousand people, but you know,
the media is not covering it, of

360
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,520
course, you know, at all.
Truly.

361
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,080
Right.
They're they're they're covering

362
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,440
the eclipse, but they're not
covering the convergence at Bald

363
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,320
Knob Cross, which is the bigger
story.

364
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,360
But they don't want to get into
that messiness.

365
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,320
You know, they don't like to
get, you know, get too

366
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,800
religious, even though
everybody's hungry as hell for

367
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,880
it.
But do you think that we're

368
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,520
going to be celebrating in
concert with a greater

369
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:22,560
celebration that is going on in
our in our inner system,

370
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,280
government, our spiritual, the
spiritual side?

371
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,760
Do you think there'll be a big
celebration going on that day?

372
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,360
Yeah, that's a pretty fair
assumption, Yeah, that there

373
00:22:31,360 --> 00:22:36,440
would be a lot of visitors and,
yeah, that a lot of heaven

374
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:37,800
would.
Yeah, I would.

375
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,720
Down upon us.
Maybe something miraculous will

376
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,640
happen.
We need a miracle, you know?

377
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,080
It's a bit, yes.
It is a bit of a miracle.

378
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,880
Well, maybe when it's over, you
can come back on and and tell us

379
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,480
your experience, share your
experience.

380
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,240
Would you do that?
Yeah, sure.

381
00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:00,560
Round two and I would say like
to be anywhere in the totality

382
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:05,720
path would be well worth it.
Just just if nothing else, for

383
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:11,320
the supremacy aspect of seeing
that, maybe from the science

384
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,200
supremacy aspect.
It's a it's a it's a beautiful

385
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:18,440
phenomenon And somebody recently
was showing me how like leaves

386
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,920
or like a shadow.
I had never noticed this in

387
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:27,480
2017, but there's like when
there when there's only the

388
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:32,080
corona of the sun visible,
there's cool things that happen

389
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:36,360
with the shadows.
But yes, just on a science

390
00:23:36,360 --> 00:23:41,000
level, in the zone of totality,
when the final ray of the sun is

391
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,800
obscured by the moon, it's
almost like a light switch.

392
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,960
And suddenly the stars are out,
and it's just pretty marvelous.

393
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,560
Have you heard about the comet,
the Devil's Comet?

394
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,000
Going to be to the left of it.
Yeah, you'll be able to see it

395
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,800
during the eclipse they're
saying.

396
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,080
There.
You might be able to see this

397
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,720
comet, and it has a weird
characteristic because of the, I

398
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,640
guess it has volcanoes or
something, right?

399
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:06,920
And.
On the comet?

400
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,560
Yeah, and it only happens, Oh my
goodness.

401
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:14,240
And it only happens once every
77 years where we see it for

402
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:15,760
this one day.
Isn't that amazing?

403
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,160
Yeah.
And it happens in the zone of

404
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,600
totality on the Resurrection
Day.

405
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:21,720
Nice.
I mean the.

406
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,560
Longer that you look at this,
the more interesting it gets.

407
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,040
It's like one of those, Yeah,
it's just an amazing phenomenon.

408
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,920
Well, listen brother, I hope you
come back on and share your

409
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,400
experience with us.
OK, I will.

410
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,400
All right, man.
Blessing to be with you and

411
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:37,560
thank you.
Thank you.

412
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:56,040
Devin Landis joining us here.
I've been out of trouble like a

413
00:24:56,040 --> 00:25:02,760
soldier saying I don't want to
spend my time in heaven looking

414
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:08,640
at the walls of a prison cell.
I don't ever want to play the

415
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:13,440
part of a statistic on a
government charge.

416
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:20,600
Let's not be an invisible song
in the teams of everyone.

417
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:39,840
Let's not be an
the.
