In this lecture, Hall encapsulates his belief in human’s ” life purpose.”

– life purpose

For all those who are interested.

Back on Feb. 3rd, ’23 , I alluded to primal sleep.

We experience primal sleep when we fall asleep with a single thought or feeling. Usually, we have a zillion things on our minds. So, corralling all those thoughts down to one won’t be easy. Is it worth the effort ? Only way to know is to experience its effects for oneself.

However, we don’t want to confuse single thought with no-thought. No thought brings the mind and emotion into samadhi. Samadhi sleep results in deep sleep or delta frequency sleep ~ about 1 to 3 hertz cycles per second.

Give primal a whirl and see how it goes. What the mind and emotion focuses on will determine its frequency.

BTW, falling asleep to Hall is alpha frequency sleep ~ about 8 to 12 hertz. Similar to falling asleep while watching t.v.

This is a great lecture : for sleep. Must’ve fallen asleep on numerous evenings without reaching the halfway mark even though I start the lecture later on the time bar each time. However, when I managed to get through the whole talk, I found some fine esoteric gems scattered throughout.

* Perhaps save and listen on those hard-to-sleep nights.

Back in Nov ’22, I updated my view on i-bonds.

The interest rate at the time was 6.48% for all bonds purchased in Nov. ’21 and May ’22. The current yield is 3.94% for those bonds.

Inflation was 7.1% trending down from a high of 9.1% that summer. Since then, inflation hit a low of 3.1% in Nov ’23 and has been drifting upward to 3.5%.

*

So, what I am doing with all i-bonds purchased in Nov ’21 and May ’22 ?

– I have rolled them all into short term treasury bills – treasuries that mature within 1 year.

Short term bill rates — around 5% — are yielding more than current i-bond rate and inflation doesn’t seem like it can go much higher from here.

If inflation continues higher, I may start to roll some maturing short term bills into 2 year notes as long as the 2 year yield hovers near 5%.

Here’s Hall’s twist on the concept of evolution for those who believe humans have an eternal soul. If not, skip to 18 to 31 min mark.

* Hall has over 2,500 hours of lectures on esoteric sciences. I will attempt getting to them all while pointing out ones I find of particular interest.

I anticipate many ^restless^ nights of sleep ahead …

Now that the federal reserve has indicated they are willing to start lowering rates, is it a good idea to start buying longer dated treasuries ?

Yes ! As long as the treasuries are yielding close to the 3 month rate of 5.3 %

Currently, the one year rate is yielding 5.03 % and 6 month rate is yielding close to 5.3 %.

How about the 2 year treasury note currently yielding 4.6 % ?

With the latest sticky cpi ( consumer price index ) , the FED may have to wait a little longer to start cutting rates. So, there may be a better opportunity to lock in 2 year rates in the next few months if safety and liquidity is of prime concern.

* This is not financial advice. Just my own thought process when investing in these financial instruments.

It appears as though covid is sticking around much longer than the previous spanish flu pandemic of 1918. So, here’s a compendium of alternate home remedies as suggested by the NIH to help our immune system defend against pneumonia-related disease.
