I'm trying to bring in guests that are experts in this area that can shed light and knowledge about exactly what we're talking about. And I am so honored to have an amazing guest today. A young man who has written a book that I can only say is gargantuan and monumental, or as author Sol Luckman said, it's mind-blowing. And it truly is.
Talking about Brendan D. Murphy, Brendan, thank goodness for technology, is live in concert in Sydney, Australia right now. Brendan, welcome.
[3:44] The Grand Illusion and Its Writing
Brendan: Thank you. How are you doing? Thanks for having me.
Karl: Well, I got to tell you, man, I spent all of this past winter going through your book, and I have to say we should have a contest to see who can beat up books. Because we both are bending back the pages and everything.
The name of his book is The Grand Illusion, A Synthesis of Science and Spirituality, Book One. And you published this book in 2012, right?
Brendan: Yeah, just days before 2012 became 2013.
Karl: And there's a pending book eventually, right?
Brendan: Yeah, it's mostly written. I just needed probably about three months to finish it off and really polish it up nicely.
Karl: Well, one of the reasons I wanted to have Brendan on is he goes so in-depth with scientific research and fact to prove all things metaphysical. And the title says it all, A Synthesis of Science and Spirituality.
And I read a lot of your stuff and I read Michael Talbot's book that was a big influence on you called The Holographic Universe and talked about synchronicity. I found this in a bookstore about a year before I even ever heard of you or your book, and about a year later I read this book too and it was mind-blowing. And then I pick up your book and I find out it was one of your main influences. Can you tell me what got you at such a young age into this study of metaphysics and all things unseen?
Brendan: Yeah, that book got me started really. My brother introduced me to that book when I was probably about 19. I'd not been out of school long. And he came home and said that a guy at school had come in for a talk and he mentioned this book, and went off on a tangent about it. He found it really interesting and he thought that I should probably look into this.
So I made a mental note of it and I ignored it for a while, but I kept it in the back of my mind and eventually I got around to it. And when I did track the book down, as you were saying, it is mind-blowing and it absolutely blew my mind completely. Changed my outlook on everything. It broke down all the established belief structures that I had at the time, which were not particularly well formed anyway, being 19.
But really, that inspired me to start down the path that I've been on ever since, which has basically just been studying and researching, investigating and trying to understand what's going on and what is real and what is consciousness.
Karl: I have to say, your research is so comprehensive. It must have taken a long, long time to do all that research, with all the scientific papers and experts you quote.
Brendan: Yeah, when I started writing, I didn't have a clear, I was 24 when I started actually putting material together, and I didn't have a clear idea at the time of what kind of a book I wanted to write to start with. I didn't have a clear agenda and it took me actually a few years, I think, before I became clear and got clarity on, okay, so I'm going to write about this subject, and I had to put all the other stuff off to the side. In the process of writing The Grand Illusion, Book One, I actually ended up producing probably six to eight books' worth of material and had to shunt that off to the side and go, okay, I've got to just hone this and polish it down. So I ended up with TGI Book 1 and Book 2 together, which was about a thousand pages, so I had to break that in half.
And so that whole process took me about five years, a good five years, to finally get to the point of, okay, I've got The Grand Illusion Book 1 ready to publish. I've polished it. It's good to go. And, as you can see, there's massive amounts of research in there, about over a thousand references. And, yeah, it's pretty ridiculous.
[7:37] Breaking Through Dogma
Karl: One thing that I do have to say to you, as most of the people in the world are locked into their dogmas of whatever it is, most of the world is closed-minded about anything about this. So I admire your... Perhaps one of the very few people I know is just unafraid, unabashedly able to throw out the words occult and psychical and paranormal and not worry about any backlash. And the way you do it allows it, at least from my perspective when I was reading, allows us to actually open up our minds and say, well, yeah, there is a heck of a lot to this.
Brendan: Yeah, I'm glad that that was how you experienced it. That was the idea. I deliberately took that approach. I set a container for the book for the reader to be able to tackle these subjects without preconceptions, or to at least set aside preconceptions and not filter information through those preconceptions so that it didn't come through distorted and they had a chance to actually see things with fresh eyes.
So that's one of the challenges as well. We have a lot of these competing dogmas and America, for example, is a Christian nation founded on Christian values. Unfortunately, though, there's a lot of fundamentalism, and people in that mindset, that belief structure, think that as soon as you say the word occult, you're dealing with the devil and it's satanic and it's evil and you can't talk about it. You can't have a rational conversation about it. You don't go there.
Being called the custodians of Scientism, and they're at loggerheads with the fundamentalists but they're also at loggerheads with anybody like me who wants to investigate things rationally. So there's a lot of this resistance in place, very well established resistance, and I try to frame the information right from page one in a way that would allow people to set aside all of that stuff and explore, just explore.
[9:45] Science and Spirituality Dovetailing
Karl: Well, I think for somebody like me who's a student of this, and the people listening to World Awakenings, many of them have come here because they're already of that mind. They want some form of enlightenment. What I love about your book is, again, going back to the title, Science and Spirituality, you show that what the spiritual leaders have been saying for millennia now is the same thing that scientists are saying. Even though they may have different lingo, they're saying the same thing, and it's a real validation. Your whole book is a validation that science and spirituality really have come together.
Brendan: Yeah, that was really the point in a lot of ways. Because again, these discussions, especially in the mainstream, frame them in a way that science is in competition with spirituality and never the twain shall meet. And one thing doesn't have anything to do with the other. Spirituality is by definition anti-scientific, unscientific to most people. And even, unfortunately, a lot of scientists who are card-carrying members of the cult of scientism take that attitude.
So what I tried to do was show, well, look, if we can just get our egos out of the equation and look at the facts and what the research actually states, you'll find that there's basically, as you're saying, those two spheres dovetail, the findings of both spheres dovetail, and they're not in competition at all. When you get down to it, like you said, they're saying the same thing. They've reached the same position, basically, through very different avenues.
The mystics and the occultists have done it through an introspective kind of approach, they have an experiential basis for it. So they have unitive experiences, altered states of consciousness that tell them this is the nature of reality, like everything's interconnected. And the scientists and physicists, to me, the physicists have led the way in that direction, they've led the charge to that same point where they're going, well, look, based on what we know, it seems like everything's interconnected. It seems like there are no isolated systems. We've got this same basic essence of the teachings from the scientists who are making the connections and connecting the dots. It's the same sort of thing, basically.
Karl: Well, you may not even realize this, but your book is perhaps at the forefront of exactly what this podcast is. The world is awakening. And writings and research like yours are a key part of the world's population waking up to that. And I really thank you for it.
[12:46] Space-Time and Time-Space
Karl: I do have a number of things I want to talk to, and I know we have limited time. There's a couple things that I sometimes get a little mixed up. You use the term space-time, but you also use the term time-space. What's the difference?
Brendan: So that comes from Dewey Larson. He was a systems theorist and that's his model. So he didn't like the Einsteinian relativistic model of three dimensions of space and one dimension of time. And I think it's a ludicrous idea that there's a dimension of time. Scientists talk about it as if it's a dimension of space, which is nonsense. Time isn't even a thing. It's a concept. It's an invention.
But Larson took the step of saying, well, we've got three dimensions of space. Why not have three dimensions of time, which are a reciprocal reality? It's like the yin-yang of the Taurus. So we have space-time where we exist with physical bodies and physical matter, and time-space is the inversion of that where you actually exist in dimensions of time.
So when you move through time-space, you experience so-called, quote-unquote, time travel. You're moving not through a spatial matrix now. It's a temporal matrix. So you can travel forwards in time, travel backwards in time. You're non-locally connected to everything. This is the realm of spirit and that kind of paranormal. It facilitates that kind of thing. So that's the container. So, yeah, that was his model for dealing with a lot of theoretical stuff that we're interested in.
Karl: Well, I love that explanation. That's excellent. And I love your statement that time is ludicrous. Here I am sitting in Columbus, Ohio, in the United States, and you're in Sydney, Australia, 14 hours apart. But really, they tell us 14 hours apart, but we're both in the now. I really appreciate that.
[14:53] DNA Potentiation and the Regenetics Method
Karl: I did mention before we got on this call that I wanted to talk about something. I don't know how much of this you have in your book, but I saw it in the e-book that I downloaded, and it's called DNA Potentiation. Can you tell us about that? It's really an interesting topic.
Brendan: Yeah, it really is. That's come through Sol Luckman, who is in the US himself. [section omitted]
He spent the next 10 years trying to figure out how to heal himself, how to get well again. He went through all sorts of horrors. He had to sleep 20 hours a day. He had no energy. He became allergic to pretty much everything, even vegetables. He couldn't eat almost anything. The long story short was he couldn't get any help from the medical profession, and even the alternative healing realm was not much use to him. He got limited results there.
In the end, he started playing with sound and he got a download, a spontaneous download of an informational code which was a sequence of vowels. So A-E-I-R-U, the vowels of the alphabet, and the letters were arranged in a certain way which would appear to be random to us looking at it. But what he discovered was that through chanting that vowel sequence, he triggered a healing process, a very profound healing process.
And he got four of those downloads. In the end, he got a system, a full healing system, that came through the collective unconscious, delivered to him in his dreams. One activation, and then five months later you do the second, you give that another four months, you do the third, and then you give it another nine months, you can do the fourth. That was just the way that it came through. That was the timeline. I don't know why, that's just how it happened.
It roughly approximates the period of a human gestational cycle, so nine months in the womb roughly, which is interesting and doesn't seem coincidental at all. It's like it was tuned into the natural rhythms of life. So DNA potentiation in essence is a sound and intention-based healing system which looks like an evolutionary trigger. When people go through this system, they become, quote-unquote, more evolved humans.
Karl: So you're saying that DNA in the human body can be affected and healed by sound.
Brendan: Yeah, exactly, exactly. Because DNA is ultimately, it responds to sound, it responds to intention. There is quite a lot of research around this and how malleable DNA is. There's been a field called epigenetics, which has been in development ever since at least the 1950s, where we've been making this connection between environmental factors, stress, hypnotic suggestion and the resultant changes in our physiology and our DNA.
The healing method is called the Regenetics Method. The Regenetics Method belongs to the next era of healing, which is... Sorry, I'm having a mental blank now. It's the third era of medicine, metagenetics. So we go from epigenetics into metagenetics, and that's basically a system or a paradigm that acknowledges that all of reality is interconnected and essentially distance is a meaningless concept. So this is a healing modality that actually works over infinitely large distances.
Karl: And you've successfully used it on yourself, right? I think I read you've healed your shoulders.
Brendan: Yeah, I had a few interesting things going on physically. I had shoulder issues. I had a knee problem. And I did. I used it on myself. I did the potentiation for myself, and that did trigger a process of healing in the long term. You have to look at it and say, well, I'm definitely not the same person that I was before I started that system. And for the clients that I've had, a lot of them have been radically, radically transformed and really dramatically shifted from where they were.
Karl: Well, if your knee is healed up, I'm going to come and run the Sydney Marathon with you.
Brendan: Yeah, don't run too fast.
Karl: No, you've got to be faster than me.
[20:00] Acceptance and Obscurity of the Method
Karl: Well, how accepted is DNA potentiation in the general world of science?
Brendan: I don't think it even exists in the general world of science. I don't think anyone knows what it is or has heard of it. I mean, it's such a... It's all he knows, right? It's all he knows well. I mean, it's such an obscure thing. I've been doing this for the last, I don't know, five to six years roughly, and even now it's very, very obscure. If you talk about healing, people understand healing, people understand even that sound can be used for healing. But this method is a whole other level of weird and obscure.
So it's been very challenging. It's almost impossible to market it, I find. To try and get it out to people, to raise awareness, is very challenging. I'm not interested in the mainstream and where it's at. It's very hard to penetrate this kind of thing into the mainstream, but it spreads through word of mouth. That's what we'll just keep plugging away at.
[21:10] Solfeggio Tones
Karl: Well, I also read in your e-book that you combine that with sound, the Solfeggio tones, I think at 520 kilohertz or something like that.
Brendan: Yeah, it's interesting that Sol eventually, when I asked him about this, said that he thinks, looking back, that they were probably using their voice at the frequency of 528 hertz, which is what the C note is tuned to in the Solfeggio scale. The Solfeggio is a musical scale, a little bit different to our standard tuning. It's actually slightly higher. C in our standard scale now, sorry, well, if you look at the A note, A is 440 Hz in the standard scale. If you go into the C-Solfeggio stuff, it's 444. So it's very slightly higher. You can just hear the difference auditorily.
Sorry, I've just gone off on a bit of a tangent there. What was the question?
Karl: Well, no, we were talking about the DNA potentiation in combination with the Solfeggio tone. But I can tell you, Brendan, if you go on YouTube and type in 528 kilohertz, you're going to get a thousand videos, which are basically the sound of that, people looking for meditation and peace. So that avenue of that tone is very well known.
[22:37] Booking a Session
Karl: And I will tell our listeners that Brendan is a certified DNA potentiator. That would be the right word. So people can actually contact you and do a session with you.
Brendan: That is true, yeah. You can reach me through my website. It's not hard to track me down. I actually perform those as a registered member of the Universal Life Church. I'm actually a reverend. I'm an ordained minister with the Universal Life Church. And that was coming back to your question about the mainstream and how it's perceived. Interestingly, I perform those in the role of an ordained minister as opposed to anything else. So it's nothing to do with making medical claims or medicine or anything like that.
[23:33] The Matrix and Synchronicity
Karl: Well, I think just simply us talking about this has got to be a huge eye-opener for so many people listening to this. Let's keep rolling here. One other topic, because I'm a student of A Course in Miracles, the modern spiritual guide of non-dualistic oneness. It has nothing to do with religion. It's all true spirituality. To me, I understand this intuitively, and I think many of us do, but there's something called the matrix.
Gregg Braden wrote a book a number of years ago called The Divine Matrix, in which he explores a total and complete interconnectedness of all that is. And I know you talk about this maybe in perhaps different terms. Can you address this, quote, matrix?
Brendan: Yeah, well, I guess it's what the mystics have been talking about for millennia. It's the underlying invisible substrate that is the creative matrix of reality. So it's this timeless, eternal, ineffable field of consciousness. It's very difficult to describe it beyond that because as soon as you try, you're injecting human concepts into it and you start getting more and more distorted.
But the universal matrix from which what we recognise as reality springs forth is this matrix which Braden was talking about, and people have different names for it. David Wilcock called it the source field in the source field investigations. I've just taken to referring to it, or thinking of it, as the reality field because it's the field which is the foundational reality and within which all other realities are birthed.
Karl: But you mentioned things that are, quote, supposedly synchronicity or coincidence that really aren't, and it goes back to the Matrix. You use the instance, and I've read this in many other books about people, as soon as the phone rings, they know who it is.
Brendan: Yeah, and it's funny, there's some really novel research done around this kind of stuff, and when you talk about synchronicity, that's a whole other discussion, really. It really gets quite mind-bendy, but Dean Radin, for example, got into some great research himself where he would get people to look at, and I've documented this pretty thoroughly in the book. So I'll just give the basic skeletal outline.
He had people sitting attached to electrodes on their hands and on their fingers, and he had them sitting facing a screen, and he would flash images on the screen. And basically what he would do was they were taking the heart rate, the pulse rate, and just before an image would flash on the screen, if it was a stressful kind of image, like a traumatic image, something scary, before it appeared, the people would actually have a response. They would have an anticipatory stress response physiologically before the image showed up. And that showed consistently, that was replicable. Those experiments were replicated as well. So we do sense things subconsciously. We already know what's coming before it happens.
[26:55] Jung and Open-Mindedness
Karl: You're quite right. I love this quote that you have on page one of The Grand Illusion, book one. It comes from C.G. Jung, and he says, "I shall not commit the fashionable stupidity of regarding everything I cannot explain as fraud." I love that because if we encounter people who are embedded in their dogma of closed-mindedness, if you can get experts like this saying that, hopefully it would open them up a little bit more.
But one thing that I have said to other people I've talked to on World Awakenings is it's okay if people don't believe what we're doing, what you're writing about, because the student will find his teacher in the right time and the right place and vice versa. So hopefully they'll find your book at the right time at the right place.
[27:58] The Law of Attraction
Karl: Now, the other thing that I would like to discuss, simply because I am a certified law of attraction life coach. Most people in this field call the law of attraction the most powerful law in the universe. And I think it has so much to do with the Matrix, everything's connected. But you use these terms torsional and vibration, and many people in the Law of Attraction world use the vortex, like Abraham Hicks. I don't know if you've read their stuff. What is your opinion about the Law of Attraction?
Brendan: Well, I tend to think that the essence of most of what people say is more or less on the right track. It's just a matter of how we could try to conceptualise what's going on and how it works.
So in the book I was talking about these torsion fields, which I characterise as vortices, vortexes. So again, yeah, it sounds like I'm on a similar track to Abraham Hicks.
And basically, what's happening is we're setting up... If you imagine that we are like fish in an ocean, to a fish the ocean is basically invisible. It's almost like it's not there. So for us, we're in an ocean that is, the ocean represents time-space as opposed to space-time. So it's the creative matrix that creates our reality. We're swimming in that unawares. We can't see it or taste it. We don't know it's there, but it's there.
And the conditions that we set up within ourselves, within our bodies and our fields, our vortexes, our electromagnetic auras, we create a condition there locally within ourselves which is broadcast instantaneously everywhere throughout the entire ocean, throughout the entire field. Whoever else has set up an informational condition that is very similar, it's like an instant sort of magnetic attraction across, it doesn't matter what the distances are, because the field itself is fundamentally non-local. Every piece of information in it is effectively dispersed everywhere. Throughout the universe, so it doesn't matter where you are, you can pick up and download anything from anywhere, it doesn't matter how far.
So we're these individual vortexes and we roam around in this invisible ocean which is broadcasting our signal instantaneously to everyone, and you will attract. It is a case of like attracts like.
Karl: Yes. That is the classic definition, like attracts like, or that which you think and dwell upon will be sent to you. But it's interesting in the way you describe that. It's so true, but it is so far off the world's thought system. I mean, everything is body in here.
When you discuss that to somebody for the first time, and I've used this example before, if I went down to the corner in the street outside of my apartment here and the first ten people who came by, and I would say to them, so tell me what you think or know about the law of attraction, probably nine out of ten of those people would look at me and run the other way like I was a kook. But that doesn't take away from the reality that it does exist. It always has existed. And of course, we went back earlier and we were talking about how science and spiritualists are now saying the same thing, perhaps a little different verbiage, but they are saying the same thing.
So the law of attraction has always existed, but the term wasn't there. Even Napoleon Hill, in his book Think and Grow Rich, the seminal, really, book on law of attraction, he never once used the word law of attraction because that term didn't exist. In his original unabridged version of that book, he used the word vibration many times while his editors edited out the words vibration. So if you ever pick up a copy of that, get the unabridged version. So he was talking about vibration. And that's interesting. I'm glad that you're able to talk about that because it's so important for people to know.
[32:28] Why Awakening Is Happening Now
Karl: But one thing that I like to get into, simply because this podcast is about this. Why do you think the world, the population now, it's generally people within the realm of spirituality and awakening and enlightenment, believe that more and more people are awakening to the truth of our reality. Why do you think it's happening now?
Brendan: Well, I think there's probably a few different things. We've had these massive cycles of time, and this has become quite popular as well. We've got the Mayan calendar and all these cycles of time converging at the same point, and then we've got, we're lining up with the womb, the galactic centre, the galactic womb, and we're moving through this different kind of space, which is affecting us all, energetically affecting the whole planet.
So there's all of that stuff and then you've got, I think that creates an energetic sort of platform for these kinds of changes to start taking place and certain ideas to start emerging and taking hold in the collective consciousness. And then you get the collective consciousness, we've got all these minds starting to take up new ideas, and when that happens, it's sort of like the signal. The signal in the ocean, the field, gets stronger. And then another person takes on the idea and then the signal gets even stronger again. So we're swimming in this ocean of information and certain signals are getting stronger and stronger and gaining momentum. And the more momentum they gain, the more momentum they gain. So it's this exponential kind of curve and we're all influencing each other unconsciously.
And I think now we've got to a point where we've perhaps hit the tipping point and we're going to see really radical shifts and we're going to see the changes that are happening now are going to continue and probably intensify a little bit. And at the same time, the forces of suppression and darkness are doing their darndest to prevent that awakening from happening and keeping us as powerless as possible.
Karl: Isn't that interesting, as one portion of the collective consciousness is awakening? And then the ego rises up and does everything it can to, like you said, the forces of darkness, whatever term you want to use, its viciousness grows stronger because it knows it's not going to exist anymore. And we're certainly, especially in the United States, we're definitely seeing that. But it's not just in the U.S. It's all of, I see Australia has their own issues going on too.
Brendan: Oh yeah, we have a lot of issues over here. [section omitted] It's crazy.
Karl: And of course, every country in the world.
[35:22] Backlash and Speaking Your Truth
Karl: And it is amazing too. I really appreciate that. And there is one other thing I want to talk to you about. And I touched on this earlier, that you're not afraid to use terms like paranormal and occult. How do you get around that fear from, and again, it's millennia of religious dogma and fear and ignorance about this type of thing? When you released your book, did you receive any kind of backlash from people?
Brendan: Look, not a tremendous amount, I have to say. No, and I don't really care. I don't really care what individual people think of it or of me. If you're going to go doing something like that, then you probably already are intelligent enough to understand that there will inevitably be people who are triggered and pissed off by it.
But the point is that if you're awake and conscious, then I think you have a responsibility to stand up and speak your truth and get it out there and just let the chips fall where they may. Every time we do that, we give someone else permission to also do it and stand up and take a stand and speak their truth and make a difference. So I think we kind of have a social kind of responsibility to do these things, even though we know that not everyone's going to like it. And we'll cop some flack along the way, but so be it. It's not a big deal. You've got to, if you're self-aware. If you've had those spiritual experiences and you've done the internal work on yourself to release and let go of those fears and insecurities, then it's not a big deal. You just get on with it.
[37:10] The Truth Social Platform and Facebook
Karl: That's beautiful. God bless you for being able to do that. You keep using the word truth, and I do have to tell our listeners that Brendan and his lady Aimee have created a social platform called Truth, T-R-O-O-T-H. I don't even know if I can compare it to Facebook, the similar postings, but you did that response because didn't you guys get deleted off of Facebook, by Facebook?
Brendan: Yes, we did. We had a page, our website had a fan page on Facebook called Global Freedom Movement and in June there was quite a large purge of alternative pages like ours and quite a number of pages were taken down, deleted without recourse or without a reason.
Karl: I didn't know that.
Brendan: Yeah, so one of our, I think the second last article that we published on our website actually explains what's happened there and the Facebook purge of these alternative pages like ours. And so that's what we do. We already know that Facebook is this huge spying operation. It's a huge data mining operation. We know that it's an organ of the deep state and we shouldn't really be there. We know that it's evil and we're still there kind of using it.
Karl: Oh great, I just put a post up a little while ago.
Brendan: Right. Yeah. So that was our response to having our page removed, to say, well, you know what, screw you guys, we're going to create our own platform and it's going to be for truth seekers, for people who are on that journey of awakening and further awakening, and activists who get it, who get what's going on, so that we can have a sanctuary where it's not controlled, we're not censored, we're not shut down. Quite the opposite. We actually want to support that and develop the community and foster tighter connections and collaboration so that we can really make better use of our time on the net.
And we've cut out a lot of the noise. It is comparable to Facebook in some ways, and it's also different in some ways. We've cut out a lot of the distraction and the noise. It's going to have a lot less trolls.
Karl: No pop-up ads.
Brendan: No pop-up ads, none of that rubbish. So, yeah, in many ways it's a much nicer, more intimate and kind of more calm kind of an experience. It's more soothing compared to Facebook, which is just chaos.
Karl: Well, so if people want to come to your site, it's just simply truth, T-R-O-O-T-H dot com.
Brendan: It's .network.
Karl: .network. Yeah. Okay, excellent. And I do suggest that our listeners go to that because it is really a wonderful site. I think you were definitely, as we threw this term around earlier, mind-blowing.
Brendan: That's it. With a lot of truth.
[40:03] Global Freedom Movement and the Alternative University
Karl: How about the Global Freedom Network?
Brendan: Freedom.
Karl: Can you tell me more about that?
Brendan: Well, GFM is our baby. We created that four and a half years ago. Interestingly, that was created exactly nine months to the day after I received my fourth DNA activation, which we were talking about earlier, and that nine-month cycle that shows up. So exactly nine months after that last activation, we ended up creating Global Freedom Movement, which was a completely spontaneous, synchronistic event that was totally unplanned and unscripted, the result of a series of quite bizarre sort of events. And that's our activist platform. That's our sort of alternative news activism platform.
And we're going to have the third sort of, I guess, third major element of what we're doing is connected to that public website. We're going to also have an alternative university, so an online university. So that's going to be the, I refer to it as the Truthversity. It's for people to learn and get immersed in the information that they should have learned at school but didn't, all of the stuff that the government structures don't want us to know about, we're going to have all of that in there, the spiritual stuff, the political stuff, the stuff that everyone needs to know but isn't getting through the channels that they should be getting it.
[41:28] A Freud Quote from The Grand Illusion
Karl: Wow. Wow. Just phenomenal, phenomenal stuff that you're doing, Brendan and your friend Aimee. Thank you so much for that. Oh my gosh. There's just so much more to talk about here. And like I said, I try to keep this show under an hour here. I do want to throw out just one more of the quotes that you had in The Grand Illusion, book one. It was on page 106. "If I had my life to live over again, I should devote myself to psychical research rather than to psychoanalysis." Freud. I think that's a world right there. Here's a man that at the end of his life decided, well, why didn't I do what Brendan's doing?
Brendan: Yeah, he started out quite, he wasn't very open to the psychical stuff initially, he didn't really want to know about it and in the end he even suggested, there's a quote in there, where he suggests that a partnership between psychologists and occultists could actually be very fruitful.
Karl: Well, and even the preeminent scientists in quantum physics, Bohm and Pribram.
Brendan: Pribram was a psychologist, psychiatrist.
Karl: Yeah, I think he was a, I think, oh man, I should know this, he was a psychiatrist and something else.
Brendan: A physicist, and here's a meeting, and they came to the same conclusions about quantum physics.
Karl: Yeah, well, that was really the basis of Talbot's book, was how Pribram as a neuroscientist had come to the same point that David Bohm as a physicist had reached, and then they had quite a fruitful kind of exchange of ideas and Talbot did a really good job of documenting that.
Brendan: So, Bohm liked the holographic model of reality and Pribram was saying, well, hey, interestingly enough, the brain seems to work holographically as well.
[43:32] Closing Thanks and Where to Find the Book
Karl: Brendan, I just have to say again, it's been a real honor to talk to you. Like I said earlier, I didn't know if I could keep up with you on this stuff because you are just a massive amount of beautiful information, truth and light, and I encourage anybody who is even curious about this to pick up a copy of the book, The Grand Illusion and Synthesis of Science and Spirituality, book one.
Brendan: Book two will be coming out hopefully in the next year or so.
Karl: And this is Brendan D. Murphy. And Brendan, so again, people can pick up your book. They can go to truth.network.
Brendan: That's correct, yep.
Karl: Or Global Freedom Movement.
Brendan: Yeah, globalfreedommovement.org if they want to head over there.
Karl: And then also you have your own website, just BrendanDMurphy.
Brendan: That's .com.
Karl: Yeah, there's one that's .com.
Brendan: Finally.
Karl: Well, thank you so much. It's been an honor to me, and I honor you for what you do. Brendan, I know it means so much to me. It's opened my heart and mine. I'm about 900 years older than you are, and I'm just now, over the last few years, opening up to you, who's discovered this so early in your life. And thank you so much for doing what you do.
Brendan: Thank you. I'm very humbled by that, Karl, and I appreciate what you do as well.
Karl: All right. Thank you, Brendan.
