I was a guest on the JeffMara podcast
Hi everyone!
A bit of shameless self-promotion is in order today. I was interviewed for the JeffMara podcast a few days ago, which is a YouTube channel focussed on Near-Death Experiences and other Spiritual and Paranormal encounters. I talk about my own NDE, my Kundalini Awakening, a visit I received from the Goddess Inana in connection with that as well as various other topics that came up, such as the Nature of the Anunnaki and the Elohim, whether there’s any truth to the Ancient Aliens theory and a brief discussion on the relevant passages of the ancient Indian epic known as the Mahabharata.
Enjoy!

Halfway thru it! Superb! Will watch the rest a bit later tonight.
Much of this we know from your posts but of course, hearing you out in person is another matter altogether!
Edit: Ah! I’ve seen the full video, wow! Congrats Chris! You’ve held back a bit though, on consciousness enablements graced by kundalini ascent or grace descent … all is grace anyway. Let’s all know when your you tube channel goes live!

Hi US and MH,
Thanks for the kind words, appreciate it.
It does seem that the reaction on youtube was overwhelmingly positive. People react to the message and the divine energy behind it, not the speaker. I still feel gratified that I get to channel the energy of divine love to others.

Oh! As far as I could see, most of the comments were quite appreciative

Indeed, although there is some moderation going on. Some of the negative comments were removed. Not everyone likes my mixing of pantheons and unique approach to syncretism. It must be said I can understand that, but this is just the way it happened to me, so it is what it is.

What does this mean exactly...I've been around and am unfamiliar ..
I can't imagine what a new person surfing here would think this could mean, either.

Hi MH,
These are terms used by religious scholars or students of religion in general.
A pantheon is a collection of gods, deities, other supernatural beings and sometimes even saints and prophets that are particular to a religion. Syncretism is when they are mixed, borrowed, influenced by each other, confused with each, other, replaced, etc...
So for instance, when the Greeks invaded India, they found that the Hindus were already worshipping some of the same Indo-European gods they were, so they assumed that Surya would be the same god as Helios (both are Sun Gods), Zeus as Indra (etc...). Polytheists have a tendency to syncretise deities, which you can see for instance with Buddha, who was adopted by the Hindus and declared to be one Vishnu's avatars. This also works the other way round and gods and goddesses often undergo change as they move from once culture to the other. They may change appearances and names, but the core identity, the role, the iconography around that deity might stay the same, with the idea being that forces of nature, which gods often represent, will be the same globally, so there is no difference between the Sun God of Egypt or the Sun God of Sumer for instance.
This is the view I take, but a lot of purists, especially hard polytheists are allergic to that and criticise me quite harshly for my views, especially the way I link together all the major religions in the world and try to find the commonalities between them. This is very much a no-no amongst hard polytheists and scholars, it is considered a new age fad or pseudo-scholarship, extremely unsound and unscientific.
