The Apocalypse Is Coming!

(upbeat music)

Welcome to Synchronicity. That was a nice way of saying, welcome to Synchronicity. I should do it like that. Welcome to Synchronicity, solo cast. I don't know when I'm releasing this, but I know I'm doing it, so I'm recording it today. I now use Twitter as a way to hash out future podcast topics, 'cause that was, what I had been doing is I was like, all right, I had an idea, let me go write it down, but sometimes I can't go write it down. But what is Twitter, if not writing down internal thoughts? So I was like, oh, okay, I got it. So today we're gonna be talking about the apocalypse. Oh, shit.

What the fuck is going on? Are we all doomed? Are the rich Illuminati, right? Are they building their bunkers in New Zealand to get out of dodge when the shit hits the fan, when the water wars start, when everything goes to fucking horrible shit. Oh my God, all the planets, dead, disease, runs rampant. Is this the apocalypse? Is this what everyone has been referring to? No, that's wrong. Has nothing to do with physical death. Yes, people are dying all the time. Death is an eternal moment every second of every day. Something is dying, thousands and millions and trillions of sentient beings are dying.

Are you gonna get caught up in that? Are you gonna worry about that and freak out that there's some looming imminent disaster on the horizon and obsess and freak out about it? Well, if you do, that's true. That's the movie you're watching and that's your reality. But that's not what the apocalypse is. Guys, come on, you know that. What is the apocalypse, really? What is it? Okay, today, I'm gonna tell you what my personal belief regarding the apocalypse is throughout all biblical scripture, just any idea played out in our media in the tropes and the movies and myths that are embedded with this idea of destruction and apocalyptic happenings.

What's going on here? Like for real, like what, why? So here it is, okay. A lot of people are fascinated with the idea of the apocalypse or this world splitting off from other worlds and the chosen one or the people who are awake or enlightened moving into a reality that's different than the other ones. And this may very well happen. Remember, you're the creator and sustainer of your entire world. So if that's what you believe, guess what you experience. Right? Oh, yeah. Okay, we're still together here. So, but you're making the misapprehension that there's gonna be a physical apocalypse and that everyone is gonna be forever changed because of that big thing that's happening out there.

Some people think it's alien. Some people think it's natural disaster. Some people think it's energetics, whatever it is. Some people even think that the apocalypse is their own physical death, right? That it's actually the end of, that's the apocalypse. That's this existential dread that's at the root of everything. It's like, oh my gosh, I'm gonna die. That's the apocalypse. No, all of those, wrong. It's not what the apocalypse is, guys, trust me. The real apocalypse, what happens is it takes place inside of your own head for real. It does. And if you've experienced this, you may have taken psychedelics.

The conception of who you are. Some people refer to this as the ego. I do not view it as the ego. But when it really happens, you get obliterated. Your whole conception of yourself is just gone. And this actually can happen countless number of times. It's happened to me and had happened to me countless number of times until you actually stabilize the apocalyptic situation, right? You go through the apocalypse, you're in the nuclear wasteland of what is left of your former personality and who you were, but what is delivered amongst that? The savior, oh, yeah. The savior, and who's the savior? It's you.

You saved yourself because I and I, you know what I'm saying? You get it yet? Wait, well you will. It'll make sense, but here's the thing. It's easier to believe that you're not the savior, that you're not in charge of this show because the ramifications of it being a physical or external event, that's just easier to deal with, right? That's so we can understand a meteor hitting the planet easier than we can to accept that you are God or you are everything and everything is you projected out. Logically, it makes no sense. Analytically, it makes no sense. It may not even feel right. It may rub you the wrong way of being like, no is a fucking asshole.

Why is he saying this shit? We're a fucking crazy guy. But it's true. And when you end up and go through your own apocalypse and stabilize it, you'll see that you have all of the responsibility for everything within your field of vision and what you imagine and what you think, along with that responsibility comes the power. So a lot of people know the Spider-Man phrase with great responsibility comes great power, but people know that with great power comes great responsibility. Wait, I said it wrong. I fucking ruined my own thing. Fuck, I'm gonna leave it. I'm gonna let my error hang. What I'm saying is with great power, that's the that's the thing.

Great power comes great responsibility. The reverse is true. I just gave it away. With great responsibility comes great power. So most people are unprepared to deal with this truth that, oh my gosh, you're the creator and sustainer of your entire existence. Holy shit. But prepare yourself. The apocalypse is coming. It's imminent. You will experience this at some point while you are alive, right? And we're gonna get into death right after this 'cause there may be questions 'cause that's a nice thing that people use to put up in their face to understand what's going on here. But recognize once you stabilize your state's of consciousness in whatever way, wherever you're at, you're the only creator and sustainer of your world.

You wake up, you get used to what the fuck is going on. And then let's slide from me. Let's have some fun and make this place even more awesome than it already is. We can find people. We can find situations. We can find external reality. All of the horrible things, right? They're out there. We see them. We're not delusional. We are not camels putting our heads in the sand. We're bearing witness to the suffering of the world. But the fun of it is, is if we really get this shit, we can actually go and change that because we change ourselves first and then internal and external resources appear. And oh, let's play the game of making the world a better place.

So anyway, that's true. That's really what the apocalypse is. It's easier to believe it's some other thing out there, right? Why wouldn't it be? And people actually create these realities, alien abductions, apocalyptic situations that change realities. But you can do it internally. It's just kind of harder to believe that sometimes. So we want to come up with these other stories. And that's totally cool. They're real, stable, imaginal acts create reality. Therefore, it's real. Let's talk about death here. Let's talk about Neville Goddard. And I kept thinking about it and kept thinking about it.

His conception of death. And I'm like, oh, man, that makes the most sense of anything I've heard. Can't consciously recall physically dying. Can consciously recall psychically dying a lot of times, but not physically. And what Neville Goddard's idea is this. And he came to this through a vision. So in his book, Out of This World, which I highly recommend people get the PDF copies, which I've heard you can get by joining a certain mailing list related to this podcast for free. What? Shh, don't tell anyone. If you get those and read out of this world, he starts talking about higher dimensional realities.

There's a lot less Bible stuff. There's a lot less kind of objective religiosity that people may get caught up in. And it's more kind of like new agey, like higher dimension stuff. But he talks about these experiences in one of his lectures, too. And I'll pin it down. I'll find it for you guys in a later episode, exactly the episode, our lecture, where he talks about he wakes up. He's doing these imaginal acts. And he's moving to this higher dimensional reality where he's summoning and kind of identifying with it and pulling it into this world. But he wakes up in this world. And he thinks he's awake, clicking he woke up in regular world, where we're all kind of used to being, right?

And he's like, OK, all right, whatever, no big deal. Just woke up from that thing. All good. But as he's navigating the world, he realizes it's a little bit different. It's a little bit different. And then he meets someone who he knows has died. He knows the reality that he is from. He has died, a person died for real. He can remember the specifics and everything about it. And he sees this person. And he's like, yo, what? Tom, you're dead. And think if someone came up to you now, and you've been living this whole time, and your friend comes up to you and like, dude, you're dead. You'd be like, yo, bro, back the fuck off me.

What does matter with you? I'm clearly not dead. You're having an episode. So he's reconciling with what's going on. And he goes, holy shit. I'm in another world. Like, I am in a world that is almost identical to this one. But it's a little bit different. And this guy's alive here. So then he started having this realization that what happens when you die, if you don't wake up, if you don't understand the dimensionality and the dream-like nature of this world and the purpose and the function and why you're doing it, when you die with it, you kill yourself, whether it's your murdered, whether it's not a, please don't tune into any of those things.

But whenever you die, it just asks, there are a long, nice, comfortable life. If you don't wake up to it, you just go, go back to a younger version of yourself in a world almost identical to this one, where you don't know that you died. And you get another opportunity to play through it and realize it. This kind of lines up with a lot of other things. Like, Nietzsche talks about this infinite loop which freaks people out and he got real depressed about. We also had syphilis at a time. So, don't read too much into his depression. But we also see this played out in Tibetan Buddhism, right? When you die, what happens, right?

They talk about these Bartos states, these intermediary states that you have the opportunity if you didn't realize it in life to wake up to who you really are and how does this appear? As a clear light, a clear bright overpowering light, which most people are like, "No!" And they go back into incarnation. And there's a whole theory of the Tibetan Buddhism cosmology of what happens there. But what else happens is, as you're going through this, is you have wrathful and peaceful deities to come in and tell you what's going on. And they look terrifying and they're scary and they're supposed to shock you into the realization.

The realization of what? That's you! That's you, that's you, that's you, that's you. The wrathful and the peaceful ones, it's all you. So, it's interesting that Neville Goddard kind of has this similar cosmology and it fits in perfectly with all these seemingly disparate religions and philosophies and contemplative sciences. But that makes a lot of sense to me that the game we're playing here is a Bartos state in and of itself. We like to think of Bartos states, these intermediary things like dreaming and dying and all of that, but this is also a state and this is an intermediary state. And we can kind of experience that in a whole lot of different ways.

So, if that's true, what I'm asking you to do or will be open to is going through your own apocalypse and it may feel uncomfortable for a little bit. I can tell you this, here's the truth. I don't know it's because I was ignorant of what was going on, but when I went through and when I've gone through personal apocalypse is, it's not comfortable, it hasn't been comfortable for me. I don't think it's a prereq that it has to be uncomfortable, but it was my direct experience of it as it was, but it was bearable. You don't give yourself situations that you can't handle. You might need to move into uncomfortable stuff sometimes, not always, it's choice, but apocalypse is typically, but it's not this negative thing.

That's what I wanna be clear about internally or externally. It's not a negative thing. It's never as high stakes or as serious. It's a movie. It's a game we're playing with ourselves. If you get caught up in the external reality and show of how it works, it'll most likely trip you up. Like for real, like it's just sour. I mean, like how can it not? It's the effect, if you're looking at the effect to try to change reality, you're too late. You're too late. You gotta go to the cause. What's the cause? It's your imagination. If you're listening to this, this is your first episode, holy shit. Go back, sorry.

Go back to previous episodes and the imagination. Megamix, questions to understand what I'm talking about with this imagination stuff. You empirically prove to yourself that you, it's all you, it's all you. And you still exist, but you're also kind of God in the source and the universe and everything. You've probably externalized for a lot of your life. God knows I did it. God knows. Yeah, it's just something we do. It's a little dance, little game, it's all good. That's this week's episode. This week's fuck, it'll probably be back. This will be the end. Enjoy the autumnal equinox. Terror readings are now open.

You can go and sign up. They've been open. I'm tweaking the prices continuously as I kind of hone in on the best flow in terms of people and money and just, I wanted to be a harmonious balance of people who are coming in and getting something out of it and the exchange of time and energy. I like it to be nice. So we're gonna hone in on that. I'm gonna say something for people who stuck through this. For the next few days, if you go on Instagram and you follow me and you DM me, follow me. No, but if you DM me, I'm giving free astrological readings. Now this comes with the caveat that I barely know what the fuck I am doing, but I do understand some things related to transits, energies and natal charts.

So I can provide some perspective. It's probably not gonna be super professional, but guess what? We can get on Zoom, we can hang out for a little bit and we can talk some stuff. Again, I do this to teach myself kind of to remember astrology. We all kind of know it. That's why we love it. That's why it's coming back so strongly, but we're teaching ourselves about it. And this is how I do it. I like to talk to other people. It's just some aspect of how it works for me. This is why I do this. It's necessary for me to learn and I guess they provide something for you guys, which is nice too. So Instagram, Noah Lampert, DM me if you're hearing this, I will do it, we'll set up some times.

I'm looking forward to it. It's gonna be really, really fun. That's it for this week, this week. That's it for this episode. I gotta stop, just episode, episode, Noah. Okay, lots of love. Happy imagining, see ya soon. (upbeat music) (upbeat music) (upbeat music)
