Blade of the Immortal – Criminal – Video

Posted on by

SAMPLE EPISODE ONE with NO COMMERCIAL INTERRUPTION! Manji visits a priest in order to confess his sins, namely killing his lord and 100 of his retainers, an act that earned him the moniker "Killer of 100." The priest, who is actually a con artist, attempts to kill Manji by shooting him in the forehead, but Manji kills him and regenerates the wound. Manji returns to his home to find Yaobikuni, a nun who placed "sacred bloodworms" into Manji that make him immortal, and his sister Machi.

Major Book Status Update

Posted on by

Book 1 - Current Status

First of all I want to give everyone my deepest apologies for the terribly long delay in getting you a copy of this book.

Since my last update, I ran into some personal issues, along with my editors, which have caused delays in getting the book editing done.

Right now, we have about 2/3rds of Book 1 ready to release; with an ongoing full court press in getting the remaining chapters in Book 1 done a.s.a.p.

By now, all of you should have received a free copy of my first book "Wake Up ... Moments of Inspiration". If you have not please contact us right away.

If you have requested Chapters 1 & 2 in electronic Adobe PDF format, you should have received them by now as well. If you have not received them, you are still welcome to request these chapters via email.

Free Gifts

In appreciation of your continued patience, I will now be adding another free gift which you will receive as part of your order.

As part of your pre-release order of the hardcopy version of "Secrets of an Immortal - An Eyewitness Account of 2,800 Years of History", you will now be receiving the electronic version (in Adobe PDF format) of Book 2 when it becomes ready. Books 2 through 4 were partially written when the first version of Book 1 was written. Like Book 1, it will have to be revised and edited before it will be released. Therefore Book 2 should be following shortly after Book 1 is finally released.

This new gift is an addition to the previously mentioned free gifts you will be receiving for pre-ordering Book 1 which include: (1) Book 1 in electronic format (Adobe PDF), (2) an Audio CD of select podcasts about the Secrets of an Immortal book series, (3) a Data CD of select eBooks which related to Book 1, (4) a copy of "Wake Up Moments of Inspiration", and Chapters 1 & 2 from Book 1 in electronic format.

p.s. the radio interview scheduled today on BlogTalkRadio had been rescheduled to a later date.

Celine Dion – Immortality

Immortality - Lyrics So this is who I am, And this is all I know, And I must choose to live, For all that I can give, The spark that makes the power grow And I will stand for my dream if I can, Symbol of my faith in who I am, But you are my only, And I must follow on the road that lies ahead, And I won't let my heart control my head, But you are my only We don't say goodbye, We don't say goodbye, And I know what I've got to be Immortality I make my journey through eternity I keep the memory of you and me inside Fulfill your destiny, Is there within the child, My storm will never end, My fate is on the wind, The king of hearts, the joker's wild, We don't say goodbye, We don't say goodbye, I'll make them all remember me Cos I have found a dream that must come true, Every ounce of me must see it through, But you are my only I'm sorry I don't have a role for love to play, Hand over my heart I'll find my way, I will make them give to me Immortality (oh baby) There is a vision and a fire in me (ohh) I keep the memory of you and me, inside We don't say goodbye We don't say goodbye With all my love for you And what else we may do We don't say, goodbye

Eating Out vs Eating In

Posted on by

(Melbourne Notes - Written in 2009)

CBD & suburbs are filthy with excellent eateries scattered around most tauntingly. I mean it, Melbourne is a superb place if you’re into walking and eating (& wine!). Is it good news? Yes, but not always to me.

Being a Muslim in a predominantly Christian country is a challenge. True, halal butchers are not so hard to find and there are halal eateries in the city, but sometimes (just sometimes!) hovers the temptation to taste that dish so famous in that renowned restaurant everyone’s been showering with praises… but you can’t since it’s not halal-meat. Sure you can go anyway and order some seafood or veggie stuffs if you insist. Then you see the aforesaid dish come floating about to the next table and it smells so good you literally drool. You look at your own dish and you ponder. Temptation is in the air!

So you know that you can’t always eat out, because even if they are cheap, the choice is limited. And they’re not exactly cheap, mind you. Regular lunch in a tiny eatery will cost you around AUD 8, drinks excluded. Dinner set is around AUD 15/pax by a struggling student’s standard. Desk-jockeys like me are expected to go to better restaurants/bars; there goes *extra* AUD 20/pax, desserts excluded. Ridiculous when you try to convert everything to Rupiah.

And when you know you can’t always eat out, you find yourself face to face with the cooker.

Yes, cook your own food. I never dreamt of having to do that. In Jogja (God bless this peaceful place!) food was dirt-cheap and there were food stalls galore just around every corner; cooking was simply deemed unnecessary (and more costly if you’re cooking for one). In Jakarta it wasn’t so cheap, but I lived on a street renowned as a culinary haven; it was downright stupid to try and cook on my own when so much better food was at my disposal. And now Melbourne: an apartment with lovely, modern, convenient kitchen that beckons me to challenge my culinary quotient. So I cook. Yes.

It is not that hard, really. Especially after a raid to Laguna (an oriental grocery shop) and be amazed by those tall shelves of INSTANT condiments. I know I will survive Melbourne, and will definitely survive my kitchen challenge! Even a culinary idiot CANNOT lose when the logistics is just colossal. So I cook. Yes.

Better Ways to Answer “How are You?”

Posted on by

(Melbourne Notes - Written in 2009)

I never thought my supposedly smooth transition will be crippled by such a trivial thing as everyday how-are-you’s. I coped gracefully with bigger things: the new job, the language, the cold (imagine a tropical creature journeys in winter), the settling-in, the food. But in the first weeks, there were always those awkward seconds before I could respond to a simple “How are you?”.

I believe it is cultural! We do greet each other with a genial “Apa kabar?” (how-are-you equivalent in Bahasa), but certainly we don’t apa-kabar each other every 5-minute! In Indonesia, if you see them & interact with them on a daily basis, a nice good-morning and an occasional “hi” every time you bump into them will be sufficient. But in Western culture they fire on with how-are-you every time they set eyes on you. Or so I felt.

Then followed the awkward seconds in which I struggled for an answer.

It was hard for me to respond readily because I could not tell if they sincerely wanted to know how I was or if it was just something mechanical; something meaningless that did not demand meaningful answer.

If I were honestly feeling low, should I just say it? Would they care or would they brush it off? If they cared, I might have to elaborate. But would I care to? I’m not someone who could just pour my heart out to a perfect stranger.

But if this whole how-are-you thing is just mechanical, why bother answering it anyway? Could I just brush it off?

See? All these “philosophical” questions passed through my mind every time a random, well-meaning person asked me that simple “How are you?”. And if I was an idiot for taking three days to realize that the office has no tea girls, I must have been a bigger idiot for taking three WEEKS to get it into my system that I shouldn’t worry about the (in)sincerity of the meaning; I should just take it as a cultural thing and produce a prompt “Good. Yourself?” with a genuine smile, both in the ups and downs of my day.

So I got over it now. You can how-are-you me every 5-minute and I wouldn’t bother. Except that now I’m feeling a bit bored with the words good/fine/well as universal answers. Surely there are better ways to respond to this standard greeting! “Never been better”. “Still hangin’ on”. “Getting there”. “Fabulous”. “Sensational”. “Like sunshine!”. "Living my dreams". Oh, I can invent other things and heaps of them. So you’ll be surprised the next time you fire your “How are you?” at me! 🙂

PS:

This is something that happened during my Uni years, when I was a part-time Bahasa teacher in Jogja. One of my favourite students, a British diplomat, came to me and idly asked me to translate “Mustn’t grumble” to Bahasa. “Why would you need to say ’mustn’t grumble’ anyway?”, I was sincerely curious. “Alternative answer to how-are-you”, he said. NOW I know what he meant. “Good” is just sooooooo boring! 🙂

She’s in Fashion

Posted on by

(Melbourne Notes - Written in 2009)

By now y’all must have figured out that despite my headscarf, I actually have a secret fashionista in me (fashion-ista, not fashio-nista!). So when I was told that Australian office dress code is quite formal, I hastily rummaged Mal Ambasador to procure some decent shirts and jackets (or “blazer” as you call it) to wear at work in Melbourne. Quite a fortune spent, that was, for a proletarian.

Months went by since I first came and those jackets never once find the occasion to leave my closet.

That bloody person who tipped me off must have not acknowledged the fact that I am an *engineer* working in *oil industry*, not some high-profile admin staff in a private bank. As far as the eyes can see, ladies here dress more or less the same as in Jakarta. Or should I say, less!

For isn’t it a miniskirt that she’s wearing? Like 15 cm above the knees? Isn’t it a body-fit cotton tee that I see over there? And anticipating summer, I swear the ladies are all flaunting their “yukensi” shirts & dresses! Who actually wears a jacket? Supervisors. And those putting on “minimalist” tops when they actually have an important review coming up (old trick!).

So pardon me for going about this Melbourne office in my usual fashion statement. That is, “tadpole fashion” like you used to see me back then in Jakarta. And pardon me if those jackets eventually fly back to Indonesia with their price tags still on. Because it is highly unlikely -and against my favour- that I’d suddenly become a supervisor within these 18 months, ha ha =)

Note:

- For the gents, it is true though, that the dress code is quite formal. If you can get away with short-sleeve shirts in Jakarta, here you must grope further into your long-sleeve drawer. And don’t forget your shiny patent leather shoes. Putting on a tie all day is pretty common, too.

- Summer is really a fascinating time for fashion studies. Look at the way the ladies dress (do so with your shades on, ho-hum)! Some just have no clue they look downright hideous, I can tell ya!

Time Traveler in Charlie Chaplin Film – Last Update

Posted on by

In case you have not heard, there is a YouTube video that has captured the interest of many throughout our planet about a unique scene found in an old Charlie Chaplin silent film.

I do not really know if this is true or not, but whatever the case, this is truly mind-boggling.

An unknown person is found in a crowd scene on an old Charlie Chaplin film, titled "The Circus", talking on what looks like a cellphone device. Problem is there were no cellphones or cellphone service in the 1920's.

Still many will claim that this is a freak accident by a delusional person (especially from my biggest fan, follower, and great friend "tacmaster"); but that explanation is more difficult to believe than the possibility of it being a person out of time. Perhaps, someone Photoshopped in this person while putting old Charlie Chaplin films onto DVDs?

What does this have to do with my quest in searching for real life immortals? Simply put, this is going to be another example about evidence. Evidence that cannot be explained on the surface, at least not yet. And until it is absolutely proven to be a fake or fraudulent film clip, it will be interesting to see how those so called scientists - skeptics deal with this yet unexplained phenomenon.

UPDATE - 10/30/2010 -

The latest "explanation" as to what the "lady" was holding in her hand is a "Siemens 1924 Hearing Aid". This device could have been what she was holding, if she was walking with someone. However, have you ever heard of people talking to their own hearing device?

I mean really, people use hearing aids to listen to another; not talk to another person. And the "woman" in the film is clearly not conversing with anyone else on the movie set except for some "invisible" person. So this explanation, while intriguing, does not fully explain what we are observing on the film.

I will be contacting Major Ed Dames about seeing if we can make this interesting film clip into a formal remote viewing project. I will keep you all posted about what we find out.

UPDATE - 11/19/2010

I did a "quick" remote viewing on this target. My "quick" RV sessions are not as thorough or as accurate as a full RV session, but it does quickly give me an idea if the target is worth the time of pursing any further.

What my "quck RV" session came up with is a male stage hand, dressed as a woman, with a listening device in his ear, listening for instructions from the director, mumbling something over and over again. In other words, I now have to believe the critics are right; it really is an old-fashion hearing aid and not a futuristic communications device.

Still it was worth checking out.

Remote Viewing – Remote Sending Update

Posted on by

I was honored last night with another interview with Rob McConnell of the X-Zone Nation.

Rob gave me a chance to talk a little bit about my experiences learning how to remote viewing and remote sending from a variety of teachers starting with Major Ed Dames.

I also reminisce about how I remote viewed and then met and became friends with Robert Ghost Wolf.

Knights Templar Benediction

Posted on by

I found this many, many years ago and I really liked it so I save it. It is a very good "code of conduct" that I felt important to add to my own life.

I do not believe it was ever copyrighted or has an author other the Knights Templar. so since I have now met a genuine member of the Knights Templar, I wish to share it with all of you.

KNIGHTS TEMPLAR BENEDICTION

A man has achieved true nobility who has lived well,
laughed often and loved much,

who has gained the respect of intelligent men,
the trust of pure women,
and the love of small children.

Who has always sought the best in others;
and given the best he had;

who has never lacked appreciation of the Earth's beauty,
nor failed to express it;

who has filled his niche and accomplished his task,

and who has left the world a better than he found it,
whether by an improved poppy,
a perfect poem,
or a rescued soul.

Whose life is an inspiration,
and whose memory is a benediction.

My Interview on the Mysterious Universe has Been Posted. Where is the Evidence?

Posted on by

Hello Mysterious Universe Audience!

I recently did a taped interview with the Mysterious Universe radio show; which has now be posted on the Mysterious Universe website at http://MysteriousUniverse.org . Special thanks to Benjamin Grundy and Aaron Wright for an awesome interview and for posting a link to my blog for more information about my topics presented on the show.

However, like many other people I talk with about this extraordinary story, many members of the Mysterious Universe audience have voiced their opinions without taking the time to review my blog which is filed with lots of evidence confirming what statements I made on the radio interview. So for these people, I am offering a very brief summary of facts to help them research a small part of the back story of finding a real life "immortal" living among us today.

Enjoy:


WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE ?

Apparently many of my pseudo-skeptical and pseudo-scientific friends are having great difficulty finding any evidence on my blog of the possibility that people can extend their lives past 122 years of age. While it is good to have skeptical friends, it does trouble me to learn that they have such great difficulty finding the evidence that I have presented on these blogs. So today I am writing this blog post to summarize some of the evidence I have alrteady presented, in an effort to help those who might be challenged reading some of my previous posts and "doing the math" by putting all this evidence together to form the bigger picture.

First I would like to present to you my posts, pointing to people "on record" whom have lived 125 years and more:

128 Year Old Woman Stars on YouTube (128 years young, Tuti Yusupova, becomes a YouTube sensation).

Living More Than 150 Years by Those Who Have Done It (here is a brief list of people, on record, who lived 150 years and more).

Supercentenarians of Record Who Lived More Than 150 Years

Supercentenarians of Record Who Lived More Than 150 Years - Part 2

Supercentenarians of Record Who Lived More Than 150 Years - Part 3

Examples of Living Past 150 Years - Li Chang (Ching) Yun (according to the research by New York Times and other publications, this man lived 256 years before he passed away).

Next, I would like to present to you my posts pointing to scientists whom have found bits of evidence that point to the possibility of extending our lives, well beyond what is considered the norms:

Science Extends the Lifespan of Fungus ( a small step with a small creature, but a big step for scientists).

Modern scientists succeed in the quest for immortality (bacteria can live forever in laboratory conditions).

2050 - and Immortality is Within Our Grasp (some scientists believe so).

Can Human Cells be Reprogrammed? (scientists are discovering the possiblity of re-programming our human cells).

Discovering the Secrets of Longevity - Two Scientists are Finding Answers (2 scientists, Dr. Leonid A. Gavrilov and Dr. Natalia S. Gavrilova are figuring out, scientifically, how to extend our lives).

Human Immortality: A Scientific Reality? (a Korean scientists believes he has found a possible cure for the aging process)

A Cure for Human Aging (Dr. Aubrey de Grey contributes his research and theories on human longevity).

Next, I have several posts that present the possibility we can control our lives, our bodies, and even reach "physical immortality" (if only for a brief moment in our lives):

Skydiver Experiences an Immortal Moment and Cheats Death (the incredible story of Paul Lewis who survived a 2,000 foot fall without a parachute).

Was a Young "Immortal" found in June? (teenager escapes certain death in a major airline crash).

A Child Frozen in Time - Toddler Accidently Discovers the Fountain of Youth (16 year old Brooke Greene ages only 1 month, every year ... could she hold the secrets of immortality?).

Can Our Heart Stop the Aging Process? (a practical theory present by Gregg Braden)

Does the Movie "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed" Offer a Secret to Immortality? (intelligent design is a requirement for achievining physical immortality).

How to Live to 150 Years or More (some commonalities I found in my research that will help us all live longer and healthier lives, regardless of our beliefs in physical immortality).

Absolute, Positive Proof of Human Immortality (yes we have it on record of someone who did beat death, as witnessed by many in the world at that time).

Finally my disclosure of some of the evidence that a man is living among us who could POSSIBLY BE nearly 2,800 years of age:

Learn the Secrets of Immortality from Those Who Have Already Found It.

Where's the Proof?

Where's the Proof (Part 2)?

Where's the Proof (Part 3)?

Where's the Proof (Part 4)

Ironically, after much internal debate, I finally decided to write a book about my research so that friends and naysayers alike could read this important information in a well laid out format. I also decided to go ahead and grant interview requests in order to answer questions to various host and call-in guests to help others better understand my research. These radio interviews helped me understand what information is of the most interest to the public. I really enjoy the conversations and I did learn as much from these interviews as I hopefully gave to their listens.

Hopefully when the book(s) are finally released, we can all better understand this incredible gift that has blessed all of us and the entire world.

Anyone Have Any Samples of These Ancient Symbols / Letters?

Posted on by

Here are some "undeciphered" languages that I am looking for samples of.

I have several "tools" to decipher such languages:

1. "Etruscan" - Despite repeated attempts to decipher this language, very little success has been accomplished to.

2. "The Rohonc Codex" - This codex was discovered in Hungary and it is alleged to contain 10 times more symbols than any other known alphabet.

3. "Linear A" - This is an ancient Minoan script from Crete from around 1900-1800 BC that no one yet has ever deciphered.

4. "Vinca symbols" - This script is believed to be the earliest 'proto-language' known to man. These symbols were found in Hungary in 1875. They are believed to be dated from around 4000.

5. "Rongorongo" - Discovered on Easter Island, scientists are not even sure if it is language.

I am also curious to see if my 2,800 year old friend would recognize any of these symbols. Stay tuned for that answer after I visit him again.
