Occult Roots Of Rocketry
- Early rocketry mixed technical innovation with occult ideas and visionary experiences.
- Jesse Michels argues founders like Jack Parsons and early rocket pioneers blended ritual, channels, and science to push boundaries.
Asking A NASA Controller For Help
- Jesse describes contacting Tim Taylor at a rocket startup to ask if consciousness could affect launches.
- Taylor answered that engineers must align with what 'they' want, implying non-human sponsors influence launches.
Balance Skepticism And Respect
- Treat extraordinary testimonies with scrutiny but remain open to inquiry.
- Jesse urges balancing skepticism and respect for sources rather than reflexive debunking or gullible acceptance.

What Is Life?
Erwin Schrödinger
Written for the lay reader, 'What Is Life?
' is based on a series of public lectures delivered by Erwin Schrödinger in 1943 at Trinity College, Dublin.
The book addresses the fundamental question of how living organisms can be understood in terms of their molecular and atomic structure.
Schrödinger discusses the stability of genes, the concept of 'negative entropy,' and how life maintains order despite the second law of thermodynamics.
He also speculates on the role of mutations, the nature of consciousness, and the philosophical implications of his findings.
The book had a significant impact on the development of modern biology, influencing scientists such as James D. Watson and Francis Crick in their discovery of the DNA structure.

Plutarch's Lives
Plutarch
Plutarch's Lives, also known as Parallel Lives, is a collection of 48 biographies of notable men from ancient Greece and Rome.
The work is structured in pairs, with one Greek and one Roman figure of similar destiny, such as Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, or Demosthenes and Cicero.
Plutarch's primary concern was not to write strict historical accounts but to explore the moral virtues and failings of his subjects, aiming to provide examples of conduct to imitate or avoid.
The biographies are significant not only for their insight into the individuals but also for their historical value, offering a glimpse into the times in which they lived.

The book challenges conventional explanations and proposes a more complex, multi-faceted interpretation of UFO sightings.
Vallée's work emphasizes the need for rigorous investigation and critical thinking, questioning the assumptions underlying many UFO investigations.
He argues that the phenomenon is far more intricate than simply extraterrestrial visitation, encompassing a range of social, psychological, and even occult elements.
The book remains a significant contribution to the field of UFO studies, prompting further research and debate.

The Question Concerning Technology
Martin Heidegger
Martin Heidegger's "The Question Concerning Technology" is a seminal work in philosophy of technology.
Heidegger challenges the conventional understanding of technology as merely a means to an end, arguing that it fundamentally shapes our relationship with the world.
He introduces the concept of 'Gestell,' or enframing, to describe how technology reduces beings to resources for human manipulation.
The essay explores the implications of this technological enframing for human existence and our understanding of truth.
Heidegger's work remains highly influential in shaping contemporary discussions about technology's impact on society and the environment.

UFOs and nukes
Robert L. Hastings
Jesse Michels returns to the mind meld! Jesse Michels returns for a sprawling conversation on the strange overlap between UFOs, consciousness, and the hidden esoteric currents running beneath modern science.
🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership We explore the “occult roots” of the space age — from Jack Parsons and the mythic imagination behind rocket culture, to the darker shadow of WWII German occultism, secret history, and the idea that advanced technology may have always been entangled with ritual, symbolism, and altered states. Along the way we get into Puharich, the Space Kids, psychic research, synchronicity, and why the UFO landscape is equal parts genuine inquiry and engineered confusion. We also riff on the centrality of consciousness, esoteric orders and mysterious cosmic ascent rituals. If the phenomenon isn’t just hardware in the sky, but something that interacts with perception itself, what does that imply about reality, human evolution, and the deeper truths of reality. Topics include: UFOs & consciousness, esotericism and space exploration, Jack Parsons, Nazi occultism, Puharich and psychic experiments, ancient wisdom and advanced tech, cosmic ascent, disclosure, misinformation, synchronicity, and the afterlife mystery.
