Post No. 3,500 - Some (hopefully) interesting reading / viewing / listening - Saturday, 1st August, 2026

I recently found the following interestingoand/orouseful, and am posting them here inocase anyoneoelse does asowelll.  

 

• “Our Paranormal Afterlife : Finding Proof of Life After Death:   Living the Life Your Soul Intended”   https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/our-paranormal-afterlife-finding-proof-of-life-after-death/id1354455555?i=1000778172254   “This episode I'm talking to Ainslie MacLeod about his book The Instruction: Living the Life Your Soul Intended Ainslie specializes in exploring past lives to reveal your life’s purpose, and has been a featured guest on Oprah’s SuperSoul Conversations Series. He lives on a tranquil island in the Pacific Northwest. Everything you are—your personality, beliefs, aspirations, talents and fears—is the result of your soul’s many incarnations. To help you tap into this wealth of past-life experience and dramatically increase your potential for success in this lifetime, past-life psychic and author Ainslie MacLeod offers THE OLD SOUL'S GUIDEBOOK: Who You Are, Why You're Here, and How to Navigate Life on Earth. Building on his award-winning books THE INSTRUCTION and THE TRANSFORMATION, Ainslie delivers unique insights and exercises to help you: Understand why your destiny is so much more obvious than you think Identify past-life sources of present-life issues like low self-esteem, unexplained ailments, and irrational fears Escape the victimization trap through self-empowerment “Past lives explain everything,” shares Ainslie. “Without knowing where you’ve been, you can never truly know where you’re going. Understanding your soul’s journey is the key to living a happier and more fulfilling life.” Bio For over two decades, past-life psychic, spiritual teacher, and author Ainslie MacLeod has helped thousands of old souls discover their life purpose and overcome the fears and blocks keeping them from living it. But Ainslie wasn’t always psychic. A lifelong skeptic, everything changed the day he encountered his deceased uncle in a bookstore in Hawaii. That life-changing experience led him to connect with elevated spirit guides, who revealed his mission: to illuminate the life plan of others and guide them toward meaning and fulfillment.”     

• “BTS Livestream with Steve Neill and Guest Jeff Selver”   https://www.youtube.com/live/6eT96R1k2qs   This was interesting - I always like hearing others use terms like “Oversoul” and concepts such as parallels, but I have slightly different view on some of the time aspects discussed. This is well worth a listen and a think    

 

On neurodivergenceoand associatedomatters:    

• “Are The Days of The Autism Spectrum Numbered?”   https://youtu.be/9NvIFCKtQlU   “SciShow's recent video about a possible new way of categorising and even diagnosing autism caught a lot of autistic attention. Are they right? Are the days of the autism spectrum numbered? Or is there more to it?”   (Yes, there is - and see also https://kaywhitecoachingservices.blogspot.com/p/autism-seven-points.html )    

I’ve decided to throw a few smalll personaloobservations (and/or vents/rants) into these posts - the sort of passingocomment that doesn’towarrant a note onoSubstack, let alone a complete standalone post here. And my first such comment is:    

I have realised myoAuDHD made me being an accepted “traditional” / “normal” large scaleoleader impossible. I amogood at (and have done this) leading a small scale, and once - decades ago, before the most prolonged of the severeotrauma I have experienced - did so on a regionally significant scale, but I have struggled with life since. 

Now, I need help to, in particular, manage some of my AuDHDoweaknesses (counsellingohas got the traumaounder reasonable - not perfect - control ... enough for me to get by, if not thrive), and there is none to be found ... 

And there are many others who have been robbed of their potential - more so than me, in many cases - by our aggressively over-commercialised, hierarchical, cultified work patterns.     

 

On society, governance, humanorights, etc:    

• “Archaeologists Keep Finding Women Where Men Were Supposed To Be”   https://thenoosphere.substack.com/p/archaeologists-keep-finding-women   “Even when historical records already suggested they’d be there”   

• “I am once again asking y’all to please stop using the term “white supremacy.””   https://cherisemorris.substack.com/p/i-am-once-again-asking-yall-to-please   “I’m sure we’ve all heard that naming a thing is power.”   An EXCELLENT and VERY IMPORTANT spiritual perspective - and the author’s term “white racial hierarchy” is more accurate, although I may use “white racist hierarchy”, which feels like it has more impact   

• “Closing the Gap is failing, yet again. Is it time we do away with it altogether?”   https://theconversation.com/closing-the-gap-is-failing-yet-again-is-it-time-we-do-away-with-it-altogether-285354   Yes, in a word - particularly given the under-resourcingoof Aboriginaloorganisations and otheroracistoactions. Read the article for why   

• “Beyond M23: Addressing the Underlying Drivers of the DRC Conflict”   https://africacenter.org/spotlight/drc-congo-conflict-drivers-beyond-m23/   “Stabilising eastern DRC will not ultimately be achieved on the battlefield, but by rebuilding intra-Congolese and African processes to address issues of citizenship, security sector reform, and greater transparency of the mineral sector.”   

• “Australians value batteries and EVs, but renewables industry must earn trust of regions, summit told”   https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/jul/30/australians-value-batteries-and-evs-but-renewables-industry-must-earn-trust-of-regions-summit-told   “Clean Energy Council calls for a national, legislated scheme to funnel benefits of hosting renewables projects back to local councils”

Possible flaws 

Where I can, I will try to highlightopossible flaws / issues youoshouldoconsider: 

• there mayobe flawedologicaloarguments in the above: to find out more about such flaws and thinking generally, I recommend Brendan  Myers’ freeoonline course “Clear and Present Thinking”;  
• I could be wrong - so keep your thinkingocaps on, and make up your own minds for yourself.

Remember: we generallyoneed to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgenderingois an act of activeotransphobia/transmisiaothat puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptoroto prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).

Reminder: practice exercises, online courses (including using this blog as a course), and ethics

This is just a quick reminderr that I have some practice exercises posted at https://gnwmythr.blogspot.com/2023/09/post-no-2572-practice-exercises.html, and links to online courses (including using this blog as a course) at https://gnwmythr.blogspot.com/p/on-line-courses-on-this-blog.html. 

 

 

Also, don’t forget to do everything - including any psychic work - ethically. 

I discuss that at https://gnwmythrsglossary.blogspot.com/2023/05/ethics.html, but I would like to add/emphasise the following - the details of which are subject to the current laws of whatever jurisdiction you live/work in, so if you have any concerns, consult a suitably qualified/registered/experienced expert: 

• even if you do not charge people, you may be liable for the advice you give them. As an example, if you told someone to give their money to a shonky person, even if you did not charge them for telling them that, you may be liable (you SHOULD be, IMO); 

• legal protections go both ways, so you are likely also protected against attempts to blackmail or threaten you; 

• mind your Mӕgan. 

I consider many people who are not outright fraudsters get themselves into trouble because they are actually seeking emotional validation for their beliefs - especially if they wish to talk about or “demonstrate” proof (see Victor Zammit and  Dean I Radin's “The Conscious Universe: The Scientific Truth of Psychic Phenomena” [Harper One (2010), first pub. Harper Collins (2009), ISBN 978 0062029096, Amazon] on that topic before getting in to any debates/discourse). I suggest doing the emotional work to be able to move away from physical proof and live with spiritual values and ambiguity/uncertainty - you will be more effective for yourself and others, and less likely to damage the entire field that way.
