Introduction

Host Neal Stevens reflects on the scarcity of genuine spiritual dedication, contrasting the "garbage" of Western media and institutions with the purity of Eastern Himalayan masters. The episode covers updates on fringe technologies (WITS, Joe Cell), personal struggles and health practices (Wim Hof method), and a call for the audience to recognize and support higher truths.

Detailed Summary

The Rarity of True Ascension and Audience Engagement

Neal expresses frustration regarding the lack of serious commitment to the path of Ascension, noting that he has met only about ten serious students in his lifetime. While he recalls a positive, open atmosphere at a lodge in the Blue Mountains of Australia, he finds the current general population largely "stuck" and unresponsive. He critiques the lack of financial support for the show, mentioning that despite the high-level truth he provides, very few listeners contribute, with one notable exception being a subscriber donating a small amount despite having a conflicting personality.

Hierarchy of Truth Sources (Host's Perspective)

❌ Western / Mainstream

  • 99% considered "garbage"
  • Corrupt institutions & media
  • Intellectually inferior regarding spirit
  • Industrial science only

✅ Eastern / Himalayan

  • Yoga lineages & Vedic teachings
  • Masters control elements (e.g., Pilot Baba)
  • Source of true freedom
  • Preserved purity in isolation

Fringe Technology and Suppression

The host discusses the survival and success of "WITS" (likely a group or entity) in the field of flying saucer technology and free energy. He attributes their survival—despite hitmen and suppression—to their strong Christian fundamentalist faith. He also highlights the work of Peter Stevens in Australia and the "Joe Cell" technology as remaining bastions of functional alternative tech, noting that most other sources are either afraid of the government or have been silenced. He asserts that no one else in the media is discussing these specific intersections of theology and advanced technology.

Critique of Western Society vs. Eastern Mastery

A central theme is the intellectual and spiritual inferiority of the West compared to "darker races" and Eastern lineages. Stevens argues that Westerners, despite their money and industrial science, are not at the top of the "intellectual food chain" regarding mastery of reality. He urges listeners to look toward the Himalayas, India, and Nepal—specifically figures like Vishuddhananda and Pilot Baba—for genuine knowledge, rather than Western religious texts which he claims have been corrupted over 2,000 years by controlling powers. He also briefly touches on US politics, suggesting the current president acts erratically after an assassination attempt, viewing it as a symptom of a broader societal sickness.

Personal Updates and Health Practices

Stevens shares personal anecdotes, including living in a van with plans to upgrade to a motorhome, and witnessing a rare green shooting star which he likened to a "leprechaun movie." On a physical level, he strongly endorses the Wim Hof method, specifically bathing in icy rivers (recently in Oregon), claiming it toughens the body and facilitates healing. He credits these practices, along with spiritual interventions (mentioning "Zangobeto"), for helping him survive difficult periods in government institutions and halfway houses.

Actionable Advice (To-Do)

  • Support the show: Listeners should financially support the broadcast if they want to prove they are serious about accurate information.
  • Adopt health practices: Follow the Wim Hof method and bathe in cold/icy water to heal the body and build resilience.
  • Shift focus of study: Stop following conspiracy theorists and instead study the stories of Vishuddhananda, Pilot Baba, and the concept of Guyanganja.
  • Reject Western dogma: Realize that accurate information about figures like Jesus is no longer available in books and can only be found through an inner relationship.

Conclusion

Neal Stevens concludes that while the West holds industrial power, true spiritual freedom and mastery reside in the East. He reaffirms his commitment to broadcasting these "highest truths" despite a lack of broad support, positioning his show as a unique platform bridging fundamentalist faith, fringe technology, and Himalayan mysticism.

The show explores the concept of ascension and the path of the ascended masters, focusing primarily on the immortal Himalayan yogis and modern New Age saints. While the New Age movement offers valuable insights into ascension, it often emphasizes angels and off-planet beings rather than living, earthly masters in physical form. The Himalayan immortals, however, are more tangible and accessible, with stories that exist here and now, making their paths easier to trace and understand.

[00:00] Speaker 1: Welcome to Ascension Year, Show 8. Uh, Neal Stevens is the host. That's me. Um, it's been a strange time because of so many things, trips to strange places that didn't go through. Um, weird, uh, things with the, um, content, um, the approach which mostly I just use it as a platform to- to get the word out. But there's- there's definitely benefits that come. And it doesn't come from pushing it big time because I'm not one to beg for- for anything, for besides basic survival. If I'm destitute, I will do that. But, um, as far as trying to gather up people and make something bigger than what it needs to be, no. If people are serious about Ascension, they're just, you know, on board. I mean, it's as simple as that. Very few people are. Most people are totally stuck in something that is a big cloud and they don't know how to get out of it. But I would like to say thanks to the people that do support because I'm very, uh, proud of them.

[01:34] Speaker 1: And it's a rare thing when someone steps forward like that and- and gets on the path when they have that type of belief. It's just so rare. I mean, I've met like 10 people in my life that are serious Ascension students. That's how rare it is in the United States. Um, I did have fair amount of success in Australia at this one lodge where people were quite open. I don't know if it was the lodge or the people but I think it was a combination. The lodge was- was a nice lodge. Uh, it was cheap and it was very pretty. The setting was great. It was the Blue Mountains. It was run by this Japanese guy and, um, he was just a businessman at heart. He had multiple hotels. And, uh, it was a strange ending to that but- but it- it, as far as talking to people, it was easy to talk to people there. It was easy to be quiet, there's a large dining area and it had these quirky stairs going every which way all over the place in these little rooms where you usually had the beds.

[03:10] Speaker 1: They be- usually had it to yourself at this- at that time of year. But sometimes there were people that would show up. And it was just, um, it was just a- a neat place and that was any- anytime it's like that, it's just amazing. But right now, I have to focus on things that might actually work and- and, uh, WITS and the flying saucer stuff, um, I can't say that that's working because it's, but it's WITS. WITS- WITS is always (laughs) getting things to work where others don't. Where others fail, they succeed. They survive, they stay alive, and they put out stuff which people haven't ex- they can't seem to do this in regular world, in the free energy world. They're blocked, they're afraid, there are all sorts of things. And WITS are men of God even though they're Christians, reg- I mean, like, you know, mainstream style fundamentalists. They still have that strong faith and it seems to protect at least the main guy there. He- he's been saved, uh, from hitmen many, many times.

[04:31] Speaker 1: And- and, uh, this doesn't happen by accident. Obviously, he's supposed to stick around to get this stuff out there. And they do get it out there, it's just they have this very strange ways of doing it at times and, but them and then you've got, uh, Peter Stevens down there in Australia and one of the people that studied him here in the States putting out good information. I won't name him 'cause he seems to be quite a- quite afraid of the government but he's still putting out information.

[05:05] Speaker 1: He's just not, he won't show people anything working and so Peter Stevens down there is still, is putting out videos and he- he seems to still, um, publish stuff about stuff working with people he works with and Joe, the famous Joe also is still talking even though he's not so public apparently although there are a lot of videos out there about him which you can watch and- and this- this, uh, technology is quite amazing and between WITS and the Joe Cell guy here which, uh, uh, in the States, the one remaining and the group in Australia who are still writing stuff were, uh, with Peter and-I think one of them's Saul, Saul Mifflin, Milfin? Anyway, yeah, they're still putting out stuff. (sighs) Oh, wow, that was a shooting star. I'd never seen one like that. That was a green shooting star (laughs) that just f- came across the sky. I'd never seen a green shooting star. That was so unusual.

[06:36] Speaker 1: That was, like, straight out of a leprechaun movie or something, green with a white streamer, and it just burned up before it hit the ground. That was amazing. (microphone rustles) Um, so I'm getting a motor home. That, that will help, and I'm still in my van for now. (microphone rustles) And... (smacks lips) Yeah, it's really strange when people support you when you're not expecting it. You're like, "Wow, that person actually supports," (laughs) like, really supported the show. I was like, "Wow." (laughs) If, if there were more people like that it'd be really... It'd be even more strange. It'd be like, "Where am I?" I, I think I entered The Twilight Zone. I mean, when you tell them the story about the farm and, and this high goddess-type being that was running the place, and you really don't get any response, you're just like, "Well, I guess that just flew right over their heads, you know? It flew right out the window," um, like recreating it type of thing.

[07:47] Speaker 1: (smacks lips) Um, I know that if I really wanted to, I could just pump, pump things, pump people full of, of something, and it would just take off, you know? I'd start getting all sorts of subscribers. (laughs) It's like, w- what's the point, though? This is, this is therapy for me, just talking and, and seeing what happens. I, I don't know what's gonna happen, but it's... It is therapeutic, and, and if, if people, um... If I... Like, I get... I have, I have one, one person who's, like, really seriously supporting the show, and, and this person really surprises me. (laughs) I'm just like, "Whoa." I'm, I'm really surprised, 'cause there's, like, there's no one else. (laughs) There's one, there's one, uh, I don't know. I guess I'll call him a kid, 'cause he doesn't seem very serious at all, and he's connected with another show that's part of the network, and he's donating, like, $3 a month or something like this, which makes him a subscriber.

[08:53] Speaker 1: But he, he is so obnoxious on the phone with me that, um... And, and, and backing someone else that was just acting retarded that ran, uh, ran another show on the network, and that, that person backed out of having me on there without even telling me. It was, like, a day or two before, and I had to call or text, and she's like, "Oh, I've decided that, uh, it's not a good idea." It's like, "Well, you were supposed to... Why would... Why didn't you tell me, like, four days ago or something? Why, why do I have to tell you or ask you, you know, two days before the show?" And then you get this other guy, um, backing her, like, "Oh, well, what's wrong with that? You're, you're judging her." I'm like, "This is retarded. You're judging? This is just common decency in business. You don't screw people like that." And he's, like, backing her no matter what, so I, I don't take this guy seriously at all. I don't, I don't take, um, most, uh, media seriously anywhere on the planet that I see.

[09:53] Speaker 1: Most of it's garbage. 99% of it's garbage. If you find good stuff, it's usually gonna come from the lineage of the yoga lineages up in the Himalayas. You know, people were talking about that stuff 'cause it's so pure it's very hard to screw it up too much, 'cause you're... How are you gonna screw up something where the people have given up everything and live in the mountains? (sighs) You know, think about it. How are you gonna screw it up? What do you... What do you... How are you gonna target them? They don't have anything. They don't need much of anything, and they're living these amazing lives up there. So what, what... How are you gonna target them? (microphone rustles) Think about it. I think people in general are just punks, you know? They're just nonsensical, backwards. They have the light in there somewhere, but, you know, they're so wrapped up in their little dogma world that they, they have no desire.

[10:52] Speaker 1: Their, their desire for high accomplishment is so dim and far-fetched that you might as well... It's, you know, good luck trying to wake them up. If I have two subscribers in eight shows... I haven't really pushed the subscriptions, but I mention it... Um, I mentioned it a fair amount right in the beginning, and then I think I mentioned it last show. Um, I also didn't mention it for three or four shows, so... And... Yeah, so anyway, but people should... I mean, if the, if the planet was remotely awake, they'd be... Just be jumping onboard, 'cause they don't... I, I know that, that you're not hearing this stuff anywhere else, 'cause y- 'cause I don't run into anybody that knows who the hell Vishuddhananda is, Pilot Baba. These are the most... These should be the most famous stories on the planet. The planet. There is nowhere else that you find this type of information. I mean, yeah, there's a couple other... There are... There's a couple... There's, like, one more. There's two books.

[12:10] Speaker 1: They're both about Vishuddhananda and Guyanganja that have to do with that secret city that seem to be-Now, this is- this is talking about a man that, that was there. He came back with the abilities. If you come back with the abilities, it's obviously real. Y- you're not gonna fake it. What are you gonna fake? So, people need to realize and respect where this is coming from. Y- y- you're not getting this stuff anywhere else. Don't lie to yourself about where you're getting your information and, and how stupid it is compared to this stuff. Just don't even bother. So, yeah. It- it's pretty obvious that the planet's just listener ... No, the people listening to this stuff is ... I mean, they may have some ear for it, but they obviously can't support it. They can't, they can't, uh, they can't get out of their own way enough to support what's obviously right. Uh, the, the most accurate stuff on the planet. The Jesus, you can't find accurate information about Jesus.

[13:22] Speaker 1: This stuff is, you might as well just kick it to the side. You're not gonna find it. How are you gonna find it? The only way you're gonna find it is by an inner relationship with Jesus. Y- the books are gonna be, uh, garbage. You can't. Th- they've been changed too many times. It's way, been way too long since he was here physically. You can only get accurate information about people that have been here recently physically, or the ones that are still here. 'Cause over time, it just gets convoluted and destroyed, the information. Just look at the people that control the planet. Do you trust them? What makes you think they've been any different in the last, uh, 2,000 years? Corrupt, corrupt, and corrupt. Over and over. They change everything for their own designs. It's pretty obvious. We- uh, this isn't the first round of sell-outs. They're always sell-outs, the people that control things. They sell out all the time. That's how they get there.

[14:32] Speaker 1: And, and if they do, if they're not so bad, once they get there, then they get screwed over so bad that they turn, they turn, they turn to the, they turn messed up. They turn crazy. This is obvious with our current president. Um, yeah, he almost got shot and now he acts like a friggin' lunatic. Well, that's what happens when you almost get shot, I mean, you almost get murdered. You turn, y- he shouldn't even, he should be in therapy somewhere. I mean, he almost get murdered and then you're gonna go run a country? I don't think so. It's not gonna work (laughs) it's not gonna go well. He better be a high-level saint to pull that one off. (laughs) So, oh my gosh. It's, this is, this'd be funny if it wasn't so horrible at the same time. It is funny in its own way. That's ... Only reason it is is 'cause I'm so disconnected from the United States as a country and me being an American citizen. I don't give, I- I'm not, I, I, I'm from the planet Earth. I am not from the United States.

[15:38] Speaker 1: As, as much as possible, I d- I, um, distant, I distance myself all the time from (laughs) the craziness that is the United States. I mean, I do my best. (laughs) Oh my gosh. So, anyway. I- if people wanna have some balls and wanna prove that they have some balls, support the show. Support what's accurate. Don't go off on some nonsensical journey with, with pe- people, uh, with conspiracy theorists. You know, you wanna talk about conspiracies for the next 10 years? Where do you think that's gonna lead? Into the frickin', into the, into the gutter. Sorry, excuse my language. I, I don't, I'm not trying to curse on this show. I don't try to curse in general. The only time I curse is when I, uh, am exasperated and I can't come up with the right words. And I'm just like, well, you know, people, if, if people can't appreciate the, uh, the high level stuff that's coming through the show, then w- you know, maybe they need a curse word here and there to wake them up.

[16:50] Speaker 1: Um, but in general, I think it's a bad idea. You're just screwing, you're screwing yourself over. You, you're not, you should ... The language is abused enough as it is. We don't need to abuse it further. It's, uh, it should be, um, held at a high esteem. People should try to talk with a smooth accent that isn't in some muck land from, you know, hell. And you, you get on the ... Anyway. So, I, I, I am against swearing. Uh, I do get exasperated at times and I will occasionally swear, but in general, it's a very bad idea. People should not be speaking this way. So, uh, anyway. Hey, I made it 17 minutes. Usually, I go about 15 and then I just shut it off and go another 15 later, and hey, that's it, 30 minutes. I know full well that I'm speaking the highest truth on the radio or in media anywhere on the planet.

[17:53] Speaker 1: There is nobody out there speaking about flying saucers from Christian fundamentalists, the only people on the planet that seem to stay alive and do this stuff, and all the other stuff they're involved in, and ascended, the true ascended masters that are alive here right now on the planet. You name one other person out there. Go. Go try to find one. I don't care if you don't like, uh-You know, you may not... Who knows what you- I don't, I don't know what the... Uh, in my opinion, it's, it's too much for most people. It's too much good. They don't know what to do with so much good coming their way. So they just reject the whole thing, because they're like, "Well, he doesn't sound like this or this." And, and, uh, and this is what the high gurus will tell you in, in India. They'll be like, "Well, they're always gonna have a problem with you unless they think you're God." They're gonna be like, "Well, he's not... If, if he's standing, he should be sitting.

[18:50] Speaker 1: If he's sitting, he should be standing." You know, just they'll, they'll try to pick, pick anything. But the reality is that if you're getting information that's accurate on the highest level, it's not coming from anywhere else, well, what's the matter with you for not supporting it? That's what you should be asking. So I, I, I've been sort of put on the spot about, you know, you know, should I be pushing, pushing the show more. And generally, I'm like, well, why, why bother? You know, it's just, they're not out. These people aren't, aren't up for this. But I'm not really... I haven't been, in the past few shows, I haven't been really stating this type of thing and just been kind of going on and saying whatever just felt okay. I was planning a trip to Nepal. That had something to do with it.

[19:42] Speaker 1: But I am here, and in the States still, and, and after that conversation with the producers about the, uh, or the, the one producer, about the style, they, they, they think that, uh, it's a good idea to try to, um, get people more involved. So hey, I mean, the only way I get people more involved is you get more real about, um, about what they're doing opposed to what I'm doing. Because I, if I just talk about myself and ascension, yeah, I can go on and on. But if I, if I really get serious about what people are doing and not doing about their own ascension, then it's pretty obvious that, in this case, that they're not... They don't know who to support, because they're lost. They're not paying attention to the masters that are here right now. And as a result, they're off doing some stupid thing that doesn't make them happy, and this is not gonna work long term for them, and they'll probably die and come back as a result of this and try this again.

[21:06] Speaker 1: You have to, you have to get it right eventually. That's why they keep... That's why you come back, 'cause your karma, karma's not clear, and you have to come back. So I've been, uh, bathing in rivers, icy rivers, here in Oregon recently. And it's quite, uh, amazing what happens. Your, you get tougher and your body starts healing, and it's, uh, I recommend it. You gotta, you gotta take it easy. You don't wanna overdo it, 'cause you can obviously get in trouble out there. But follow the Wim Hof method, method to whatever extent you can. I would say just getting in the water is a big part of it, because, uh, it's just remarkable all the things. Of course, I, I, I've been in the water a lot in my life, so I, I have, uh, a comfort level with, you know, being in the water, swimming. It's been quite good.

[22:15] Speaker 1: Um, so I, I also wanna bring up the reality that, um, that us here in the West, us white people that seem to control the West mostly, um, are not at the top of the food chain, uh, intellectually. We're actually... Compared to these masters that live in the Himalayas that have control of the elements and come and go as they please, um, they... We, we don't have... We're, we're not, we're not even close to the top of the intellectual food chain. So we need to get over our whiteness and realize that we need to, we need to look to the, uh, the dark races and, and... In this case, it's the Himalayans, but in my case personally, it's also the African, um, races that, that do these, uh, rituals with the Zangobeto. Zangobeto has bailed me out in a big way and continues to, as far as I can tell. I wasn't able to receive anything until I got involved with that energy. I was stuck in, uh, government institutions, or really halfway houses, is what you call them.

[23:47] Speaker 1: They were, they were halfway part of society and halfway part of a nurse-fueled prison, um, state-fueled prison, or stuck with people you don't want to be with, let's put it that way, just to have a roof over your head. So that's not a fun situation, and you feel like, uh, you know, you, you don't know who to go after, because, um...You know, the person that got you there isn't, isn't on board with what, what's going on, the person that was responsible for the, uh, business, the death of the business and the, you know, the health issues that resulted. I talk about this stuff often like it's new information. It's not new, but seeing that people probably aren't listening to all the shows, (laughs) they don't know who I am, so I have to kind of bring them up to date at times a little bit. But in general, I'm not gonna bother trying to bring them too much up to date because it's, sounds too tedious. Um...

[25:14] Speaker 1: At any rate, yeah, we need to pay attention to these dark races, uh, us white people over here that, that control so much money and influence in the world. Um, the i- the, the, the knowledge is coming from these places, the real knowledge, it's coming from the Himalayas, it's coming from India, it's coming from Nepal, it's coming sometimes from Tibet. This is where it comes from. It's not coming from the west. This is all, uh, the in- the, um, industrial complex, yes. The, the, uh, science of- sometimes comes from the west. The, the, uh, industrial science. But the way to make it to the realms of the Christlike masters where the freedom takes place, this comes from, uh, a darker race, uh, a poor- a more poorer, much more poorer society on the physical level. India, while having money, uh, there's no question that there's money in India, um, is a very poor place compared to many western nations, most western nations.

[26:49] Speaker 1: And yet, India has, is responsible for these masters, uh, they have Vedic teachings. So, we need to pay close attention to this, this dichotomy and why we're so arrogant about, about knowledge and saying that we know more than we do. We're like little, uh, plebes in this, in this realm of mastery. Just the thought that you're gonna sign up for thinking you're gonna rule the planet with the military or, um, technology, or companies, when this is going on at the same time is utter blasphemy. So, anyway. This is a very important topic. I, I won't be letting it go. I have to retain my white upbringing myself, because I'm, that's, you know, what got me to this point. But it's really not what gets you to, you know, the far reaches of spiritual potential. And, and that's my job, is to bring this forward into the light. So, I really appreciate the ones that are supporting the show, and whether it's intellectually or, or by money, and of course the money makes things easier.

[28:26] Speaker 1: It ma- if it, if there's, you know, a fair am- uh, if it's obvious that I can afford more shows, I will do more shows and, uh, I'm not one to jump into something like that without being ready. So, it's all, it's all interesting and I'm, I'm very thankful to, to, uh, the s- for the support and the listeners out there who, who care enough to, um, at least pay attention for 30 minutes, if not longer. Be known, uh, let it be known that, that, uh, Pilot Baba story, the Shuddhananda story, Guyingon, this is where your thoughts should be. Um, even the, the famous teachings from the western style, the Guy Ballard school and the Baird Spalding school, even though those guys don't really seem to be able to prove their masters that they run into, other than Saint Germain. Uh, this is, this is a very mystical person. But, um, this is not something that they can prove (laughs) he, he was...

[29:44] Speaker 1: I'm not sure they can prove Saint Germain was part of the Guy Ballard story, but the teachings are still on a high level. And, yeah, so that's the end of the 30 minutes. Thank you very much and blessings, uh, till next time.
