INTERVIEW DESCRIPTION

I’d like to be interviewed about my book Universal Spiritual Philosophy and Practice: an Informal Textbook for Discerning Seekers—how it came about, what it says, and why its message is important. Its intent is to bring the reader to a deeper understanding and experience of the profound truths at the heart of all faiths. Here’s a brief description of the book:

This 200-page book presents all the central insights of mystical experience, and relates them in a practical way to psychological understandings of spiritual maturity. Topics covered include the unimportance of belief, the “deep structure” of religion, rebuttals of orthodoxy, cosmologies and theories of enlightenment, types of spiritual teachers and groups, the mechanics of alternative healing and dreams as they relate to spiritual progress, and more. Over 20 different spiritual practices are reviewed, and 48 illustrations and lively, word-balloon graphics make for easy reading. The book is intentionally succinct, clarifying only the most important core truths in each chapter area. Readers who are sick of all the fighting and politics around religion, and who      long to experience something deeper, will appreciate USPP’s systematic approach, which takes them to a deeper experience by starting to dissolve the cultural and linguistic conditionings which confine us spiritually as we grow up. Short appendices are devoted to more detailed understandings of meditation, and crucial, usually overlooked philosophical understandings connected with the religions.

During the interview, I’d like to be asked the following questions:

1. So what gave you the idea for this book? How did it come about?

2. There are lots of books that talk about how all the religions say the same thing. What’s unique about yours?

3. Who did you write it for? What would the average seeker get out of reading it?

4. What do you mean by spirituality? That’s a really vague term.

5. So, I guess there are some things about the religions that really bug you. What are those things, and how did they motivate your writing?

6. So, you’re frustrated that people are so conditioned by their cultures.

7. Can you give me an example of an underlying similarity between all the religions?

8. You go over all these practices that people can do on their own to get in touch with God.

9. What can we do about the attachments we have to our own opinions about things? For example, a conservative might say, “I think everyone should own a gun so they can protect themselves,” or a liberal might say, “I think everyone should get an organic diet.” What do we do about that?

10. What have some of your own experiences been?

11. Do you think that you’re enlightened in some way?

Plus anything else the interviewer would like to ask that we have time for. I assume you will need a copy of the book; I can send you one.

Therapist Mary Barr and Steve Reichmuth are in telepathic contact with beings from Zeta Reticuli I. We have appeared on radio shows, lectured at MUFON,and provided a demonstration at the Institute of Noetic Sciences.  We have written two books, with more coming, that are verbatim exchanges between therapist and these beings.

Mary Barr, B.A., is a Certified Hypnotherapist and Behavioral Therapist.  She retired from Los Alamos National Laboratory as a Training Specialist. She assists people with missing time events and abduction memories. Our books are a sharing of many hypnotic sessions held with Steve Reichmuth. Non-Earth beings responded to an open invitation to talk through Steve. They identify themselves as sentient physical beings residing in the Zeta Reticuli star system. Mary resides in the Central Valley of California.  She may contacted by e-mail at behavior.therapy@yahoo.com.

Steve Reichmuth is the former Assistant State Director and Chief Investigator for Northern California MUFON. Steve has assisted many UFO experiencers by serving as a compassionate listener and counselor.  Steve has richly contributed his time by making himself available to serve as a conduit for a friendly, non-Earth species.  This has entailed years of sessions in which the Therapist placed Steve in deep hypnotic trances and invited aliens to speak. The response has been startling and continues to this day. Steve resides in the San Francisco Bay area.

This spring 2016 my upcoming film will be released. The film is called "New Human, New Earth, New Humanity," and it's my third film in a series of three consciousness raising films I have produced along with "The Resonance" and "The Wellness Story."

I am inquiring about guest speaking and/or being interviewed one of your broadcast stations. It will be a wonderful opportunity for me to share with the world my amazing story and gifted work I do which will make an interesting show for your viewers. 

My name is Christopher L. Melchizedek and I was a Doctor for 9 years before an accident rendered me 100% disabled. This accident redirected my path and lead me to the healing work that I do today. After suffering for two years with a painfully crippling neurological disease, I looked for every way possible to heal myself through conventional medicine and surgery. Nothing helped until an ominous celestial being known as Melchizedek lead me down a spiritual path called the "inner journey" that included sacred knowledge and practices. Now, since this accident, I’ve been blessed with an ability to see and sense energy. I teach others to manipulate their own energy in order to heal themselves and drastically improve their lives in every aspect. 

I have brought all of this information together in my book titled "Melchizedek's Pearls of Love." This book's info ranges from the truth about consciousness and energy to what makes up the very fabric of our being; who and what we are described in its entirety. The book stresses the importance of purifying our subconscious mind of all negativity to allow our conscious mind the capability to escape duality and create a life of unity. My book explains the ascension process along with many other ancient hidden secrets.

If you are interested, my team and I have just recently started recording teaching segments along with testimonials from my work and have posted them on our YouTube channel, "Christopher L. Melchizedek." We have many more informative videos on the way. What you will see on YouTube is only barely scratching the surface of this ancient knowledge.

I look forward to future collaboration with you and getting to know each other.

Christopher L. Melchizedek

My name is Christopher Melchizedek and here is my story in short. I was a specialized physician for nine years until an accident rendered me 100% disabled. I spent two painful, crippling, bed ridden years with a condition deemed incurable. From the accident, I discovered an amazing ability to sense and see energy. These extraordinary senses allowed me to manipulate my own energy and heal myself to a much higher state of existence than I was prior to the incident that changed my life. I was led through an amazing process of raising my own consciousness, truly learning what life is all about. This was the ultimate awakening process that placed me on my divine path as a high priest after the Order of Melchizedek. My story is absolutely amazing, as yours will be, once you awaken to the truth. If your life is not stranger than fiction, you are living a lie. This process is very delicate and profound and requires proper guidance through a series of soul cleansings associated with an inner journey of one's self. Be careful of the many false prophets throughout the world that will unintentionally lead you right off the cliff. Although they may come in the name of Jesus or Melchizedek, this doesn't mean they have the proper knowledge and wisdom. I am here with complete authority of the Priest Most High to teach on his behalf and perform the spiritual cleansings that were taught to me. I am not a new age guru or a religious fanatic. I am a spiritualist that has an ability to profoundly change your life and your health. The proof will be evident. Go by the words of people who have already experienced this process. Please take time to listen to my testimonials on my YouTube channel “Christopher L. Melchizedek.” I will prove to you that I am the real deal, a true high priest after the Order of Melchizedek. I am number 9 of 9 high priests on this earth today. Please allow me and my team to earn your trust and we will give you 100%.

The Next Evolution of Online Networking

How many hours are spent daily on the internet? How are those billions of hours  are contributing to the positive evolution of humankind.  How can we utilize the internet to Co-Create the Greatest and Highest Good? 

Challenged by the late Futurist, Inventor and World Citizen, R. Buckminster Fuller, to find a way to change the human mindset from a prevalence  of competition to the more sustainable mindset of cooperation and collaboration, Duane Stjernholm (Pen Name Dane Starland)  has forged an unprecedented  new path to the Co-Creation of the Greatest and Highest Good by utilizing the internet in support  of  Poll-itical Networking for Collective Consensus.  Poll-itical networking is Global Democracy at its finest,  an internet platform for Pure Global Democracy where every United Earth Ecclesia Member gets one vote without the undue influence of lobbyists, PACs, or corporate financial pressure and manipulation.  The resultant Endorsed Poll-itical Consensuses will determine Our Evolution  priorities, direction, and the Collaborative Action steps we need to take to Collectively Co-Create the Greatest and Highest Good for all.

As part of this process, writing under the Pen Name Dane Starland  (which is the English translation of his Danish heritage name) the Author of 5 screenplays, video scripts, and published articles, has published two books to exemplify and elaborate on exactly how Poll-itical Networking for Collective Consensus can be utilized to facilitate the positive evolution and sustainability of the human race.

These two books are:

UEE or Not UEE That is the Question: Whether ‘Tis Wiser to Suffer in the Modern World or Take Action Against the Inequities in it.

This book, set five years in the future, recounts one day in the hypothetical Life of Jane, a thirty-something, unemployed, Hotel Catering Executive.  The book is ordered to give a glimpse of what is possible in the future if the mindset of cooperation and collaboration takes precedence over the current unsustainable mindset of competition.

The book is divided into two scenarios.  In Scenario 1, Jane goes through her day without the Benefits of being a Member of the United Earth Ecclesia. In Scenario 2, UEE Member Jane goes through the same hypothetical day, but with surprisingly different and significant experiences and results.  To paraphrase Robert Frost, she took the road less traveled, and it made all the difference.

The Earth Citizen’s Guide to Co-Creating The Greatest And Highest Good

As Earth Citizens we have many tools to help us Co-Create the Greatest and Highest Good for all Earth Citizens.  This book provides a detailed clarification of many of these available tools offered from the new global organization the United Earth Ecclesia.  These tools include the Harmonic and Co-Creative Power of Lenergy (the Real Energy of Love), The Exclamation of Love (ExLo) Mark and sign, the vibration raising benefits of prayer/meditation, the United Earth Ecclesia Earth Citizen Covenant (UEEECC, pronounced ‘You Ease Seas’), and the unprecedented platform that has been recently provided by UEE website for, among other things, Poll-itical Networking for Collective Consensus.  UEE Membership is free, but it does require that all prospective Members attest to the Earth Citizen Covenant and live up to it to the best of their ability.  The  UEE Earth Citizen Covenant reads as follows:

"As Active United Earth Citizens, We Promise that We will not harm or trespass in any way on the person and property of any other United Earth Citizen. That includes a Promise to uphold the Bonds of Trust that connect all United Earth Citizens who have sworn to this Covenant.

     As Loving United Earth Citizens We Promise to Love one another and act toward Others as We would like them to act toward Us.

      As Rational United Earth Citizens, We Promise to promote World Peace and protect every United Earth Citizen's Right to total Individual Freedom as long as that Freedom does not harm the Person and Property of any other United Earth Citizen.    

      Finally, As Responsible United Earth Citizens We Promise to strive to do everything We possibly can to Protect and Improve the Ecology of Our Communal Environment."

From the Founding Member Phase to the collaborative and enduring evolution of the website, this book explores the real world-changing possibilities of Co-Creative Evolution by those of us who wish to be instrumental contributors in producing a more positive future for our collective home,  Planet Earth.

Both books are available in print versions, e-books (Kindle and Nook) and audio books. Free, downloadable  PDF and audiobook  excerpts are available at ExLo  as well as the unabridged volumes.

Buckmaster Fuller, who inspired him on his current 35 year Mission of changing the prevalent mind-set of humanity from competition to cooperation and collaboration in order to Co-Create the Greatest and Highest Good. To that end he founded the unprecedented Member organization, the United Earth Ecclesia.

            To support and further his Mission he has worked in a number of hospitality and service oriented positions culminating in one of his current positions as Production Administrator at the nationwide non-profit, Learning Ally (formerly Recording for the Blind and Dyslexic), culminating in the publication of his two books and the recently launched United Earth Ecclesia website, ExLo, dedicated to the Co-Creation of the Greatest and highest Good for all Earth Citizens.

On-Air introduction for Duane Stjernholm/Dane Starland

Raised in an extremely small town, Cheraw (2013 population, 248),  a tight-knit community in southeastern Colorado, Duane Stjernholm's only avenue to the broader world and an expansion of his horizons was books.  Able to read before starting first grade at the age of five, Duane's love of books and the lessons within propelled him to Co-Valedictorian of his high school class of 10 people. Beckoned by broader horizons he then joined a Freshman class of a couple of thousand student  at Colorado State University in Ft. Collins where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology. However, not content with broad enough horizons, he joined the Peace Corps and spent two years in the Philippines working in Rice irrigation water management and teaching introductory Social Sciences at the University of the Philippines. This developing country experience not only made him more grateful for the opportunities and possibilities available in developed countries, it made him question his role in how to he could be more instrumental in bringing equality to all people with limited means and possibilities. Recognizing the unifying importance of spirituality and metaphysical quantum mechanics in all peoples realities, he studied the universal power of Love in his pursuit of a Master of Arts in Religions Degree at Denver's Iliff School of Theology.  Soon after graduation he accepted his Life's mission from a challenge issued in a Live speech by the late futurist, inventor and World Citizen, R. Buckminster Fuller, to change the predominant mindset of humans from one of competition to a more sustainable one of cooperation and collaboration.  This lead him to found the United Earth Ecclesia dedicated to the Co-Creation of the Greatest and Highest Good for all Earth Citizens and to write two books on the importance of this unprecedented undertaking.

Please welcome the founder of the next evolution of internet networking, Duane Stjernholm.

My book "Great Leaders ASK Questions - A Fortune 100 List" is a free eBook which was downloaded by leaders in over 100 Nations the first week it was released.   

From the introduction:

"Are you familiar with T.A.? You are probably familiar with A.A. – Alcoholics Anonymous. Well, T.A. stands for “Tellers Anonymous!” I have an addiction – I am addicted to telling! At T.A. meetings I stand up and introduce myself: “My name is Bob and I am a teller.” Today, I am a recovering teller. However, the temptation to “lead by telling” has never left me. You could say that this e-book – sharing my favorite questions with you – is part of my recovery program, as is my blog. Leading with questions takes preparation, intentionality, discipline and practice. Good news! If I can move from telling to asking, so can you!"
