01 Jul 2024Ep 11: Crop Circles and Sacred Geometry: Unlocking Inner Experiences with Karen Alexander.01:17:52

In this conversation, Gary King and Karen Alexander discuss their fascination with crop circles and the profound impact they have on people. They explore the connection between geometry, music, and spirituality, highlighting how geometry is like frozen music and how it bypasses the intellect to create a deep inner experience. They also discuss the importance of engaging the whole of oneself in the process of drawing geometry and how it can lead to a shift in consciousness. They mention several books that have inspired them in their exploration of crop circles and sacred geometry. Scientists are studying the effects of ice baths on the immune system and its potential to cure illnesses. Unorthodox methods like ice baths and UFO research are changing the paradigm of how we think. The UAP UFO situation is intriguing, and there is a growing feeling that mainstream scientists should be involved. The powers that be have successfully kept a lid on UFO knowledge, but there are people on the inside who want to reveal the truth. It's important to keep an open mind and not dismiss anything in the study of crop circles and other phenomena. The conversation explores the simplicity and profoundness of geometry and the Fibonacci sequence. It highlights how understanding geometry can provide a sense of ease and inner knowing, without the need for complex mathematical knowledge. The conversation also touches on the nihilistic views of science and the importance of finding inherent meaning in the world. It discusses the fear of change and the pain of growth, as well as the role of mistakes and failure in learning. The conversation concludes with a tribute to the late Michael Glickman and upcoming workshops and events.

16 Mar 2025The Science of Psychic Abilities: Dr. Jeff Tarrant on Neurofeedback, Telepathy & Consciousness01:16:52

Is consciousness more than just brain activity? Can psychic abilities like telepathy and energy healing be scientifically studied? In this thought-provoking episode of Against the Grain, host Gary King sits down with Dr. Jeff Tarrant, a neuropsychologist and expert in neurofeedback, to explore the frontier of human potential.

Dr. Tarrant shares his personal journey from skepticism to belief, revealing how scientific inquiry into altered states of consciousness, meditation, and energy work has led him to groundbreaking discoveries. Together, they discuss the brain’s role as a filter of reality, how flow states may grant access to deeper levels of awareness, and the neuroscience behind psi phenomena.

The conversation also tackles the challenges faced by researchers in this field, from scientific resistance to paradigm shifts that could redefine our understanding of consciousness. Can technology enhance psychic abilities? Is the brain a mere receiver of consciousness rather than its origin? And what does the future hold for humanity’s evolving awareness?

Join us for a fascinating deep dive into the mysteries of mind, matter, and the hidden potential within us all. Don’t miss this eye-opening discussion on science, consciousness, and the nature of reality! 🎧✨ #Consciousness #Neuroscience #PsychicAbilities #FlowState #Telepathy

Ep 32 – Unlocking Superhuman Abilities in the Age of AI & Alien Contact w/ Rob Freeman & Mark McNabb

In this fascinating episode of Against the Grain, Gary King reunites with Rob Freeman and Mark McNabb to explore their latest UFO investigations and the powerful concept of Mind Sight. From a mysterious creature encounter in Brazil to high-strangeness events in France, they share jaw-dropping stories from the edge of the unknown—and what these experiences might mean for the future of human consciousness.

Rob Freeman’s passion for the unexplained began at just 12 years old, when he witnessed something unexplainable from the roof of his parents’ house. In 2015, he founded the Centre for the Scientific Study of Atmospheric Anomalies (CSSAA), launching a global mission to investigate UFO phenomena using cutting-edge technology and scientific analysis. Alongside the UFO World Explorer Team, Rob has traveled across 14 countries, clocking over 3,000 hours in the field using Generation 3 night vision, thermal imaging, and full-spectrum cameras to capture and study anomalous aerial activity.

Joining him is producer and researcher Mark McNabb, who has explored mysterious cultural phenomena and UFO activity in over 20 countries worldwide. Mark brings a unique perspective on the interconnectedness of global high-strangeness events and the human stories behind them.

Together, Rob, Mark, and Gary delve into the frontiers of consciousness, telepathy, suppressed human abilities, and the implications of advanced technology—asking whether we’re on the cusp of a new evolution or confronting the limits of our perception.

🎙️ Topics include:
 • UFO encounters in Brazil and France
 • What is Mind Sight?
 • Paranormal tech and documenting the unexplained
 • Cultural views on UFOs & high strangeness
