Art opens the show with a warm greeting to his listeners, mentioning the vast reach of the broadcast from the Hawaiian Islands to the Caribbean and the US Virgin Islands, and worldwide on the internet. He welcomes new stations in Lubbock, Texas, Jackson, Mississippi, and Newport, North Carolina. Art introduces the evening’s topic, Bible codes, with guest Stan Tenen, director of research for the Meru Foundation. Stan, who holds a BS in physics, began his research after noticing patterns in the Hebrew text of Genesis in 1968, leading to 30 years of study. Art contrasts Stan’s findings with those of Michael Dresden, noting that Dresden’s work relies on statistical methods and computers, while Stan’s approach is different and independent. Stan explains that the patterns in the Bible are repeatable and found throughout the five books of Moses, challenging academic views on the composition of these texts. He introduces his unique explanation, which bridges religious and academic perspectives. Art and Stan discuss the skepticism some people have about hidden meanings in the Bible, emphasizing the need for scientific repeatability and clarity in understanding these codes.
Art and Stan continue their discussion, focusing on the nuances of the Hebrew Bible’s text. Stan explains that the original Hebrew text was a continuous sequence of letters without word breaks or vowels, making it challenging to read without prior knowledge. He highlights that translations, like the King James Version, while well-intentioned, inevitably lose some of the original patterns and meanings embedded in the Hebrew letters. Stan mentions that the translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek, known as the Septuagint, was considered a great tragedy by rabbis because it stripped the text of these embedded patterns. These patterns, Stan argues, were crucial and are lost in translation.
Stan then delves into the statistical methods used to uncover these patterns, describing how computers search for equal interval letter skip patterns that spell out words. He notes that some patterns, like the word “tova” appearing at regular intervals, are statistically robust and unlikely to be accidental. These patterns are “woven” into the text, a term Stan emphasizes. However, he cautions that not all discovered patterns are significant, as some lack the statistical reliability and context necessary to determine their importance.
Art and Stan explore the differing conclusions drawn from Bible codes. Stan suggests that the Torah is not a literal prophecy but a tool that, when studied deeply, can elevate one’s consciousness to a prophetic state. This contrasts with the view that Bible codes predict specific future events. Stan describes the Torah as a “fishing pole of prophecy” rather than a collection of explicit prophecies. He shares the story of Rabbi Akiba, who, through deep meditation on the Torah, achieved profound spiritual insights. Rabbi Akiba’s experience, known as the “paradise meditation,” was so intense that it had varying effects on his companions: one died, another became mentally unstable, and the third lost his faith but retained his rational mind. Only Rabbi Akiba emerged whole, illustrating the depth and potential impact of these meditative practices.
Stan further explains that the Hebrew text contains geometric patterns that can induce altered states of consciousness, allowing individuals to experience creation or other profound events described in Genesis. This concept received significant interest from listeners, leading to many inquiries. Art questions the overwhelming nature of such experiences, likening them to a bad acid trip, where the intensity could be emotionally and spiritually destabilizing. Stan agrees, suggesting that such profound insights can be both confirming and unsettling, potentially shaking one’s faith.
Art and Stan discuss the potential impact of experiencing profound spiritual insights, noting that while it might reinforce faith for some, it could also be overwhelming and destabilizing for others. During a break, Art reflects on past interviews with prophets like Gordon Michael Scallion, who described seeing geometric patterns before acquiring prophetic abilities. This resonates with Stan’s description of geometric patterns leading to altered states of consciousness.
Returning to the conversation, Stan acknowledges the significance of geometric patterns in spiritual experiences. He cites examples from mathematical research where contemplating geometric forms led to unusual experiences, emphasizing that these insights can be profound. However, he distinguishes between individual talent and a tradition that can be safely passed down through generations, such as the meditative practices in Judaism that aim for consistent and safe outcomes.
Stan explains that the purpose of recording spiritual practices, like the creation of alphabets, is to pass on these experiences explicitly. This contrasts with personal, non-repeatable experiences, which might be profound but lack a structured method for replication. He stresses that while spiritual experiences are often ineffable, creating a kind of notation, akin to dance footprints, can guide others toward similar experiences.
Art and Stan continue their discussion, delving deeper into the experiences and methods that can lead to profound spiritual insights. Stan shares a personal experience where, after spending 16 hours drawing Hebrew letters, he felt as if he were in a tunnel made of flame and Hebrew letters. This experience, although terrifying, motivated him to continue exploring these patterns. He acknowledges that such experiences are difficult to describe and not something he regularly pursues through meditation.
Stan describes his scientific approach to these spiritual experiences, creating a graph paper to help draw Hebrew letters, which led him to a series of circles. Meditating on these circles elicited similar feelings to his previous experience. Art introduces the idea of spinning geometric patterns, drawing a parallel to Doug Ruby’s work on deciphering crop circles. Stan agrees that spinning patterns can reveal deeper insights and mentions his work with spinning geometric forms, which can pull patterns from flat surfaces into three dimensions. He suggests that more complex spins can bring forms into higher dimensions, indicating a more formal process for understanding these patterns.
Remaining chunks: 20
Art and Stan discuss the nature of perception and how it affects our understanding of patterns. Stan emphasizes that how we look at something influences what we see, illustrating this with the example of pi, which can be viewed as random or exact depending on our knowledge of it. He asserts that this interaction is part of the science of consciousness. Stan recounts his own profound experience while studying Hebrew letters, which led him to take Judaism more seriously to better understand and prepare for such experiences.
Stan continues the story of Rabbi Akiva, who, despite facing a tragic and painful death at the hands of the Romans, appointed a Jewish general named Ben Kosiba as Bar Kokhba, a term meaning “son of the star.” Stan suggests this may refer to the same prophetic star significant in Christianity. Bar Kokhba, however, was not the Messiah, and his death ended the story.
Stan recounts a disputation involving Rabbi Nachman of Breslov during the Inquisition, where Jews had to prove that Jesus was not the Messiah or face severe consequences. Rabbi Nachman, questioned about the Talmud’s teachings on the Messiah’s birth coinciding with the temple’s destruction, explained that the Messiah’s actions might not be immediate. This interaction highlights the complex and often dangerous dialogues between Jewish and Christian scholars during that time.
Art and Stan discuss the idea that the Messiah might be waiting in a higher state of consciousness, not necessarily tied to a single individual like the founder of Christianity. Stan elaborates on his experiences with geometric patterns leading to meditative states, which can provide profound insights or experiences related to creation.
Listeners and Art express fascination with Stan’s theories, discussing the implications of his findings on Bible codes and consciousness. One listener, Tim from Minnesota, questions how the Bible codes could remain intact given the revisions and omissions in the Bible over the centuries. Stan clarifies that while he isn’t an expert on the Christian Bible, the Torah has remained relatively unchanged in the Hebrew tradition, with the oldest copies dating back about a thousand years.
Stan highlights the challenges of translation, explaining that the original Hebrew and Aramaic texts contain patterns and codes that are lost when translated into other languages. He mentions that the Jewish tradition includes the “Oral Torah,” which preserves additional teachings not accepted by Christians and Muslims. This difference underscores the distinct approaches to scripture and interpretation among these faiths.
Stan concludes by explaining that the Pardes meditation story is part of the Oral Torah, emphasizing that the deepest levels of understanding, encoded in the sequence of Hebrew letters, are lost in translation. This foundational level is what Bible code researchers are exploring through statistical methods, looking beyond the surface narrative of the text.
Art and Stan delve into the differing interpretations of Bible codes. Stan clarifies that Michael Drosnin’s work, which involved making specific predictions from the codes, differs fundamentally from his own approach. Drosnin’s work is based on high-probability statistical findings, like the word “Torah” or the name of God, which are widely accepted as non-accidental. However, Drosnin’s predictions, correlating names and events, lack the same scientific rigor, as they require knowledge of events beforehand and aren’t predictive in a scientific sense.
Stan recounts his own journey, starting as a physicist and medical equipment designer, using sophisticated methods to find patterns in the Hebrew text. After years of failure, he realized he needed a simpler, more ancient approach. By arranging Hebrew letters on a bead chain and curling it up, he discovered that the letters naturally formed recognizable geometric patterns. These patterns were elegant and unfolded in a logical sequence, aligning with sacred geometry and the Platonic solids.
Stan describes this discovery as a humbling experience, leading him to appreciate the simplicity and universality of these patterns. He mentions efforts to create a video using computer graphics to demonstrate how these patterns blossom and unfold, making the complex concept more accessible.
Art and Stan discuss the potential dangers of using computer graphics to demonstrate the geometric patterns in the Hebrew text, considering if such visuals might inadvertently induce a meditative state like the Pardes meditation. Stan reassures that while there is some risk, the complexity and depth of understanding required to fully appreciate these patterns serve as a natural safeguard. He emphasizes that a humble and gentle approach is essential for safely exploring these spiritual concepts.
Stan shares his caution in grounding his work in Judaism to avoid arrogance and potential harm. He notes that many so-called spiritual gurus offer only superficial understandings, lacking the depth and safety of time-tested traditions. Stan mentions the challenges he faced, including plagiarism, which affected funding for his animations.
The conversation shifts to the concept of lucid dreaming, which is considered close to prophecy in Jewish tradition. Lucid dreaming involves becoming aware within a dream and exerting some control over it. Stan highlights that this practice, mentioned both in ancient Talmudic tradition and modern works by authors like Carlos Castaneda, involves focusing on one’s hands in the dream to achieve lucidity. This connection to letters and hands ties back to the geometric patterns discussed earlier.
Stan speculates that the Pardes meditation might represent a messianic experience, suggesting that emulating the founders of faiths like Moses, Jesus, or Muhammad could lead to similar spiritual insights. He mentions teachings that predict a modern age of mystical revelations, hinting at a broader spiritual awakening in contemporary times.
Art and Stan explore the parallels between near-death experiences (NDEs), soul travel, and the Pardes meditation. Stan explains that while his understanding is still developing, there are significant connections between these experiences. He emphasizes the importance of safety and grounding in tradition when exploring these profound spiritual states.
Stan recounts the Jewish tradition of reading the Bible annually and references the story of the Levites offering “strange fire,” which illustrates the dangers of ungrounded spiritual practices. He stresses that experiences must be approached with humility and integrity, noting that those who seek power or control tend to struggle more with these experiences. A humble, honest approach is key to safely navigating these spiritual states.
Stan elaborates on the coded patterns in the Hebrew Bible, starting with the first letter, “B,” which symbolizes the distinction between inside and outside. He links this to the concept of ego death, where the boundaries between self and soul dissolve. This experience is universal in death and can occur during life through trauma, surgery, or ritual practices. He mentions various cultural rituals, such as peyote in Amerindian cultures and soma in Greek traditions, that have historically facilitated such experiences.
Art and Stan discuss the nature of spiritual experiences and the potential risks involved. Stan emphasizes that profound experiences can be triggered by accidents, trauma, or other shocks, but a safe and reliable tradition must be established to guide people toward these experiences. He compares this guidance to dance steps, where each step leads the mind to a particular state safely.
Stan notes that while many people might be capable of achieving higher spiritual states, it’s not about formal education or background. Instead, it requires humility, integrity, and a gentle approach. He believes that people from various traditions, such as high-practicing Buddhists, Native Americans with their sweat lodge rituals, and others with strong spiritual practices, may achieve these states. However, Art expresses concern that many people might not be ready for such experiences and could be overwhelmed or harmed by them.
Stan acknowledges the risks but points out that profound insights can also come from observing nature, like watching a flower unfurl or gazing at the stars. He stresses the importance of using these spiritual teachings with respect and humility, avoiding exploitation or power trips. The goal should be to become better, more loving individuals, whether following the teachings of Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, or other spiritual leaders.
Art and Stan discuss the potential misuse of powerful spiritual teachings, comparing them to technology like guns or nuclear energy, which can be used for good or ill depending on the user. Stan emphasizes that true religion and spiritual practice are about connection, memory, and integrating one’s personality rather than merely following rules. He stresses that becoming a more honest person is a lifelong journey and that the depth of one’s spiritual experiences is directly related to one’s integrity and intention.
Stan explains that while arrogant and egotistical individuals might struggle with these experiences, approaching them with respect and humility allows for safe and gradual access. He compares this to learning to drive a race car—jumping in without proper training leads to disaster, while careful, step-by-step learning leads to mastery. Stan suggests that most people, if they approach these teachings sincerely and study under wise guidance, can experience profound spiritual growth safely.
Art expresses concern about his own ambitious and revengeful nature, questioning whether he could safely undergo such spiritual experiences. Stan reassures him that awareness of one’s flaws is a step toward growth and that the intention to move in the right direction is what matters. No one is perfect, and the journey is about striving for improvement rather than achieving sainthood.
Art and Stan discuss the nature of profound spiritual experiences and how some people might stumble into them, like near-death experiences or soul travel. Stan emphasizes that he has discovered a method, woven into the Bible, that allows for deliberate entry into these states through the codes. He compares this path to those taken by great sages, suggesting it’s a tried and tested method rather than an unpredictable one.
Art mentions his interest in the Great Pyramid and its connection to these spiritual teachings. He shares his upcoming trip to the Giza area with his fans, signaling a deeper exploration of these ideas.
Stan acknowledges that not everyone will immediately understand or appreciate these concepts, and some might even find them boring. He explains that understanding might require time and repeated exposure. He emphasizes that Hebrew, Greek, and Arabic are sacred languages based on hand gestures, which connect conscious life with the physical world. This idea, while shocking to some, is a result of years of scholarship and personal study.
Art expresses his deep fascination with the pyramids, sharing his plans to visit Egypt and explore these ancient structures. Stan begins to delve into the connections between the pyramids and biblical teachings. He explains that Moses and Pharaoh had access to the same knowledge and technology, but their characters differed fundamentally. Moses, described as the humblest of men, represents humility, while Pharaoh epitomizes pride. This distinction is crucial in understanding how they used their knowledge.
Stan elaborates on how the spiritual meanings and technological achievements of the pyramids and the Bible are interconnected. He discusses how the structure and geometry of the Great Pyramid align with the teachings in the Bible. For instance, when he laid out the letters from the beginning of Genesis in a spiral form, they matched the geometric properties of the pyramid. Specifically, the arrangement of the letters mirrored the angles and symmetries found in the pyramid’s design.
Art and Stan delve deeper into the mysteries of the pyramids and their potential connections to biblical teachings. Stan recounts how the geometric patterns he discovered in the Hebrew text of Genesis align with the physical structure of the Great Pyramid, specifically its spiral pattern. This unexpected correlation suggests a deeper connection between the Bible and the pyramid, though Stan remains cautious about drawing definitive conclusions.
Stan touches on speculative theories about the pyramid’s construction, including the use of levitation, which mainstream science dismisses, and the idea that the pyramid served as a chamber of initiation. He mentions historical references to the outer skin of the pyramid having a spiral pattern with seven bands, which matches the spiral pattern he found in Genesis. Stan posits that understanding the similarities between Egyptian and Israelite traditions might provide valuable insights lost over time.
Art shares a personal story about a stone from the Great Pyramid that seems to emit a glow when placed next to a watch, suggesting some form of residual energy or radiation. Stan acknowledges the possibility, noting that limestone can contain minor amounts of radioactivity, but he remains cautious and open to further investigation.
They explore the idea that the pyramid and biblical texts might preserve ancient knowledge and spiritual technology, which could be reintegrated to enhance contemporary understanding. Stan emphasizes the importance of approaching these mysteries with respect and humility to uncover their true significance.
Art and Stan continue their conversation, delving into the mysterious properties of the stone from the Great Pyramid that Art received. Art shares how placing the stone next to a watch that had been in the dark caused the watch to glow more brightly, suggesting some form of radioactivity or energy emanating from the stone. Stan speculates that mild radioactivity in limestone could explain this phenomenon, but emphasizes the need for further investigation.
Art plans to explain how a gas laser works in the next segment, hinting at a potential analogy for understanding the stone’s properties. He recounts receiving mixed reactions from his audience about Stan’s discussion on Bible codes and geometric patterns. Some listeners find the concepts fascinating and profound, while others are skeptical or dismissive. Stan acknowledges these differing responses, understanding that his ideas can be far-fetched for those unfamiliar with the subject.
Stan reiterates that the patterns he discovered in the Hebrew Bible are woven into the text and that his findings are based on scientific examination. He encourages listeners to explore these concepts for themselves rather than accepting them at face value. Stan highlights the importance of personal investigation and the potential insights that can be gained from understanding the relationships between Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
Stan explains the “car passing trick,” which illustrates the interplay between the three Western religious covenants—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. He emphasizes that each covenant represents different aspects of human experience: intellectual clarity and study (Judaism), passion and compassion (Christianity), and submission and letting go (Islam). These principles can be applied in various life situations to achieve desired outcomes by first understanding what you want, working towards it, and then letting go to allow things to happen naturally.
Art humorously interjects with his fantasy of using a mounted machine gun to deal with slow drivers, which Stan uses to highlight that the spiritual teachings he discusses are about finding constructive and peaceful solutions rather than resorting to violence. He emphasizes that the test of these spiritual teachings is whether they work in practical life.
Stan continues with the car passing example, explaining that you should first form a clear intention to pass the slow driver, then put in the necessary effort to follow them safely while maintaining this intention. Finally, you should let go of the desire, allowing yourself to be distracted and release your attachment to the outcome.
Stan continues explaining the “car passing trick” by emphasizing the importance of letting go of the desire to pass the slow driver. He suggests treating the situation as a controlled folly, where you commit to following the car indefinitely while mentally letting go of the need to pass. This approach, he argues, often results in the obstacle disappearing when you genuinely release your attachment to the outcome.
Art humorously admits his tendency towards a more aggressive approach, like fantasizing about using mounted machine guns or breaking a problematic computer beyond recognition. Stan acknowledges that this technique might not apply to every situation but maintains that many people unconsciously use similar methods in their daily lives.
The conversation shifts back to the potentially radioactive stone from the Great Pyramid. Stan speculates that the stone might emit low-level radiation, enough to cause a watch to glow brightly, though not necessarily dangerous. He advises using a Geiger counter to check the stone for radioactivity.
Stan proposes that the choice of materials and location for the pyramid, such as the warm climate of Cairo, might have been deliberate if the pyramid functioned as a device. He explains that just as specific materials are chosen for their properties in constructing useful devices, the pyramid’s design and materials might serve a specific purpose. He emphasizes the importance of precision and conditions in determining the functionality of such structures.
Stan explains the importance of understanding the material composition and the size of the Great Pyramid. He highlights that most of the pyramid is made of limestone, a material that results from the crystallization of vertebrate skeletons, effectively making it the “ash of life.” This limestone forms a porous eggshell-like layer around the planet, with the pyramid sitting on an outcropping of this limestone, symbolically creating a “Gaya egg.”
He notes that calcium carbonate, the main component of limestone, has various forms, including mother-of-pearl and calcite (Iceland spar), which exhibit unique properties like birefringence. When calcite is cleaved, it breaks into specific angles that match the pyramid’s structure, suggesting a deeper significance in the choice of materials and design.
Art announces the opening of the phone lines for listener questions. The first caller, from Washington, asks about the relationship between the pyramids and the Sphinx, and their alignment with astronomical features and biblical contexts. The caller is curious about recent discoveries related to the Sphinx and the potential connections between these ancient structures.
Stan begins to address these inquiries, indicating the potential for deeper connections and insights from studying the materials, placements, and purposes of these ancient monuments, while also considering their alignment with astronomical and biblical references.
A caller from Cleveland, Washington, who has visited the pyramids and the Sphinx, asks Stan about the latest discoveries related to these ancient structures and their connections to biblical and astronomical contexts. Stan agrees that there are significant connections and similarities across Islamic, Christian, and Jewish beliefs, and he acknowledges the work of researchers like Graham Hancock, who suggests that the Sphinx and pyramids are much older than traditionally believed.
Art brings up Mars, discussing the recent discovery that Mars might have experienced a great flood billions of years ago. He mentions that Mars’ current dry, dusty state contrasts sharply with its past, which might have included significant water and possibly life. Art also notes the geometric shapes on Mars, particularly in the Cydonia region, and asks Stan about potential connections to Earth.
Stan points out that the geometry around the face on Mars corresponds to the geometry of a modeled human hand, as specified in the Bible. He finds the fractal imagery analysis of the face on Mars and other objects in the area to be particularly intriguing and supportive of the idea that intelligent life may have existed on Mars.
The discussion turns to the broader possibility of life in the universe, with Stan highlighting recent discoveries of life in extreme conditions on Earth, such as deep-sea environments, suggesting that life could exist in unexpected places. Art speculates that if intelligent life existed on Mars, the geometric patterns observed there might have been created by Martian equivalents to Earth’s pharaohs. Stan agrees, noting the universality of certain geometric patterns and the likelihood that intelligent beings would construct significant structures.
Stan elaborates on the universal patterns that permeate the universe, comparing them to the constant value of pi. He emphasizes that these patterns, like pi, are not tied to any specific culture or belief system but are intrinsic to the structure of reality. He addresses a question about whether the Bible’s encoded messages were intentionally written by its authors or were an unconscious process.
Stan explains that, in his view, the experience of Moses was one of great humility, where his ego dropped out, allowing him to unify the conscious and physical worlds. This unification manifested in the sequence of Hebrew letters in the Bible, which he believes represent the path of feelings and experiences Moses received. He likens this to the mathematical discovery of pi—something intrinsic to the world rather than a human invention.
He suggests that the Bible’s text, especially in Hebrew, could be seen as a series of woven patterns that reflect natural structures. The Jewish tradition teaching that the Torah is the template of creation might be confirmed if we can see these patterns reflected in the world. Stan draws parallels to ancient navigational maps used by Polynesians and Micronesians, which are woven patterns representing tides and celestial observations. He believes similar patterns are woven into the Torah text, representing both the heavens and the human mind.
Stan argues that this is not mysticism but a physiological reality that can be tested. The woven patterns in the Torah might be analogous to the episodic patterns of celestial bodies, providing a bridge between the internal experiences of meditation or prophecy and the external structure of the universe.
Stan elaborates on the idea of comparing patterns in the Torah text with patterns in the heavens, suggesting that this comparison could reveal how the ancients viewed the world and recorded it in what we now call the Bible. Art then poses a question about the nature of a potential debate between Stan and Michael Drosnin, who authored “The Bible Code.”
Stan clarifies that any debate would center around the validity of statistical interpretations. He explains that while the numerical results from statistical analyses of the Bible codes might be correct, their meaning is undecidable without a working hypothesis or model. He emphasizes that a model is essential to differentiate between real, meaningful results and those that occur by accident.
Stan uses a quote from a scholarly publication, “Reasoning about Luck,” to support his argument. He asserts that the lack of a working hypothesis is why interpretations like “Hitler” and “Yeshua” found in Bible codes are not valid. He points out that these shorter codes fail the basic principle of probability theory, which requires a model to determine the significance of the results.
A caller from Fort Myers, Florida, mentions another book on Bible codes, “The Signature of God,” and asks about prophetic intervals. Stan reiterates that while the statistical detection of codes is valid, interpretations involving names and events are not because they lack a sound working hypothesis.
Another caller from Victoria, BC, discusses the symbolic importance of hands in religious contexts and suggests that the pyramids might have been created by God and later adopted by Egyptians. The caller hints at a potential connection between Moses, the Pharaohs, and the golden calf, possibly hidden within the pyramids.
Stan responds to a caller by emphasizing the importance of examining beliefs and teachings through an analytical and scientific lens, rather than accepting them at face value. He stresses that understanding the physics behind these concepts provides a more spiritually sound explanation than attributing them to miracles.
Another caller, Rebecca from San Diego, expresses her admiration for Stan’s work and asks about obtaining a pure translation of the Bible. She has concerns about the accuracy of existing translations, noting that certain phrases might have been altered. Stan explains that his work involves assigning rational meanings to each Hebrew letter, which aligns with traditional interpretations but also allows for a more precise understanding of the text. For instance, he explains that the Hebrew letters for “Sabbath” mean “to sit within yourself,” suggesting a meditative practice.
Stan advises Rebecca to consult multiple translations of the Bible, comparing different versions to gain a deeper understanding. He encourages independent study and critical thinking rather than relying solely on experts or religious authorities.
A subsequent caller, Jeff from Gulfport, Mississippi, shares his experience experimenting with Hebrew letters and sequences. He describes uncovering a sentence using a specific numerical base and expresses interest in exploring this further. Stan acknowledges Jeff’s approach, reinforcing the idea that personal investigation and experimentation can lead to significant insights.
Stan acknowledges the caller’s experience with progressive bases for analyzing Hebrew text but clarifies that his own work focuses on traditional methods and technologies available several thousand years ago. He emphasizes using familiar tools and techniques like weaving, farming, and household skills to ensure his methods align with what ancient people might have used.
Another caller, John from Columbus, Ohio, asks if Stan’s research connects with the Kabbalah. Stan confirms that although he initially had no interest in the Kabbalah, his models make sense of Kabbalistic texts, providing clarity on passages that are often considered mythical or poetic. He explains that the experience at Mount Sinai, where people reportedly heard images and saw sounds, indicates a state of synesthesia common in deep meditation.
Stan provides contact information for those interested in learning more about his work. He directs listeners to the Meru Foundation website (www.meru.org) and provides their mailing address and phone number for further inquiries. He mentions the positive response from the previous show and encourages donations to support their nonprofit efforts.
Art Bell thanks Stan for his contributions and expresses his intention to have Stan back on the show for further discussions, given the strong audience interest.
