Rafael Sánchez Entanglement Engines: Noncommutative asymmetric time quantum measurements proven to extract virtual resonant nonlocal energy

 

 Converting phonon heat into electrical power via nonlocal virtual asymmetric resonance! So the heat current is converted to a charge current. you get electron phase accumulation then as energy increase.

 Carnot efficiency is the maximum theoretical efficiency any heat engine can achieve operating between two temperatures, given by \(\eta_{C} = 1 - T_{c}/T_{h}\) (\(T_{c}\)=cold, \(T_{h}\)=hot in Kelvin). It represents a perfectly reversible cycle where no energy is wasted, setting the benchmark limit for real-world engines, which typically only reach about 70% of this maximum

Charge is not conserved. Electrons go one direction and holes go the opposite direction.  The left-right symmetry has to be broken to create a circulating current. The heat is perpendicular to the current so the heat can be separated between the hole and electron current....heat can be extracted or current extract.

recognizing that the measurement process itself plays an active role in localizing the particle in the classically forbidden virtual state...the measurement process not only extracts information but also injects energy into the system, effectively enabling the particle to transiently occupy the virtual state. ... the virtual state is indeed populated during tunneling. If it were not so, there would be no interaction between the electrons in the TQD and the QPC, and ρCC wouldn’t be affected. Note that the energy needed to populate C is provided by the measurement device, since the measurement operator, ˆLγ , does not commute with ˆHTQD....measurements can fundamentally alter the presence of an electron in the virtual state, offering a deeper insight into the role of observation in understanding the virtual states. 

 we investigate the interplay between virtual transitions and measurement back-action, proposing an experiment based on a triple quantum dot system under the continuous measurement of a highly-detuned central dot.

 

The quantum dot is switching the gates...

 When the central dot is strongly detuned from the two external ones, hopping between left and right dots (fed by two electronic reservoirs) occurs via virtual tunneling transitions [31–
39].

By continuously monitoring the central quantum dot, virtual tunneling events are converted into real occupations, enabling two key functionalities: (i) thermodynamic operations, including power generation, refrigeration, and hybrid energy conversion, and (ii) quantum state purification, where noise from the detector stabilizes the system into a dark state.

 the trajectories exhibit quantum jumps between the dynamically stabilized regions of local oscillations around the eigenstates. Since these transitions are otherwise forbidden, this is a measurement-induced tunneling effect and is closely related to that recently predicted for tunneling through a triple quantum dot (Singh et al., 2025). The short-time behavior clearly shows the localized oscillations being perturbed by the measurement.

 Moreover, there is the possibility of several non-commuting operators of the system to couple to multiple baths, which can lead to significantly increased system-bath entanglement [246]. The exploration of non-commuting coupling operators is still in its infancy, and bridges to non-Abelian thermal states (NATSs) discussed in section 17

 a qubit concurrently coupled to both decohering and dissipative baths. Our approach, which accommodates strong system-bath couplings, generalizes the recently developed reaction-coordinate polaron transform method [N. Anto-Sztrikacs et al., PRX Quantum 4, 020307 (2023)] to handle couplings to baths via noncommuting system operators. Our approach creates an effective Hamiltonian that reveals the cooperative effect of the baths on the system

 In these setups the electron-hole symmetry is broken by the kinetic phase accumulated between the junctions connecting the ring to the differ-
ent terminals [248, 249], with broken time-reversal symmetry introducing the mirror asymmetry (via the non
reciprocity of the transmission probabilities Tij (B)̸ =Tji(B)) needed for the thermocouple effect, even if the geometric configuration of the system is symmetric and energy-independent [164]. To see this, consider a symmetric ring with all three terminals equally separated by one third of the ring perimeter, so we have T⟳(ϕ) = T12(Φ) = T23(Φ) = T31(Φ). 

 nonlocal thermoelectrics mediated by interactions

 Phonon assisted tunneling between two quantum dots provides the energy, ℏωp ≈ εR − εL ≫ λ to
overcome an energy gap, where λ is the interdot coupling, and Γ are the tunneling rates for coupling with the reservoirs. The splitting of the quantum dot levels introduce all the required broken symmetries naturally.

 the two transitions in the source
dot, g, perform the detection (of the charge in s), feed-
back (the charge in g affecting the tunneling rates in the
conductor) and information erasure (restoring the ini-
tial state) mechanisms of an autonomous Maxwell de-
mon. This is most clearly evidenced in the equivalent
case where the nonlocal thermoelectric response is due to
coupling to a colder source [118], where the sequence is
reversed: (n1, n2) = (0, 0) → (0, 1) → (1, 1) → (1, 0) →
(0, 0). The cold dot, g, is occupied until an electron enters
s, when it absorbs the energy U to overcome the electro-
chemical potential μg and tunnel out (detection). This
changes the rates in the system (backaction) allowing the
electron to tunnel out and restores the initial state (re-
set). In this case, U is transferred from s to g, increasing
the entropy of the gate.
Differently from what one expects from a Maxwell de-
mon though, a three terminal configuration cannot re-
duce the entropy of the conductor by, e.g., generating
power, without changing its energy: a finite JH̸ = 0
is necessarily exchanged via the electron-electron inter-
action in the quantum dots, see Eq. (16). References
[68] and [306] are then rather interpreted as autonomous
information-enabled (demonic) heat engines [122]

 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2408.01865

 The two nontrivial elements of our study are
the coupling of the system to the baths beyond the
weak coupling limit and through noncommuting system
operators. The first challenge in solving the dynamics of
the system described by Eq. (1) arises from its potentially
strong coupling to the environments, which precludes
a low-order perturbative treatment.

thermal machines, emerging due to the combination
of noncommutativity, strong system-bath coupling, and

 Noncommuting charges

 charges’ noncommutation can change entanglement entropy and thermodynamic-entropy
production. As a quantum many-body system thermalizes internally, its constituent particles entangle.
To pinpoint how charges’ noncommutation affects entanglement, researchers built two models [296].
Each is a one-dimensional chain of two-qubit sites. The models parallel each other, such as by having
the same number of charges, which have the same eigenvalues. However, one model’s charges commute,
and the other model’s do not. The noncommuting-charge model achieved a greater average bipartite
entanglement entropy than its counterpart. However, charges’ noncommutation can decrease average
thermodynamic entropy production, which quantifies irreversibility 

https://arxiv.org/pdf/2504.09121 

 the nanostructure acts as a filter to break electron-hole symmetry....this dependence also breaks
inversion (left-right) symmetry, i.e., TLH (E)̸ = cTRH (E),
with c a positive number. ...symmetry breaking must
be a property of the conductor, 

 the three-terminal scat-
tering matrix (composed of the barrier and the tip) suf-
ficient to break the electron-hole symmetry [242]. Mean-
while, the inversion symmetry is broken geometrically by
the position of the tip with respect to the barrier.

 When quantum interference is the only responsible of the electron-hole energy
breaking, the nonlocal thermoelectric effect is indeed af-
fected by dephasing

 therefore Tp − T
breaks the detail balance of the phonon-assisted tunnel-
ing transition. This mechanism enables the direct elec-
tric current, which can be controlled by gating the quan-
tum dot levels 

 nonlocal thermoelectric converters have been pro-
posed based on this effect in a variety of setups, including
molecules [125, 142, 167, 168], quantum dots [167, 313]
or suspended wires [145, 168, 239, 314]. In multiterminal
(two electronic, two phononic) configurations, interest-
ing connections between phonon drag and pumping have
been suggested [188].

  introducing virtual probes to the problem, where electrons propagating
along the conductor can be absorbed and reinjected,

 electrons in the two dots where the interacting state (1, 1) is only virtually occupied [137, 138, 299] become important. In this regime,
the energy filtering introduced by the discreteness of the
quantum dot levels becomes broader, which can help to
improve the amount of generated power [137]. 

 Rafael Sánchez - Quantum thermoelectrics

 Electrons in a conductor react not only to voltage but also to temperature gradients. In their motion, they carry electric charge as well as energy. This makes it possible to think of devices that are absorb excess heat from their environment and convert it into useful power. This can be done in three terminal devices: Two terminals support the charge current with the third one serving as the heat source, enabling the separation of charge and heat flows. Mesoscopic (nanoscale) systems are good candidates for this, because of their high degree of tunability and rich variety of different effects that allow for the mechanism of heat to power conversion: Coulomb interactions [1], resonant tunneling [2], entanglement [3], quantum interference, or the absence of thermalization [4].

this condition is fulfilled uh so this is yeah this is what a

thermometer does so for example to see if in Us in in the simplest case where

where the this this scattering Matrix is transparent so all of all every electron

from two goes into the probe and then goes back to the system uh and also from

the from the left so so there is no scatter

 

 the only consumed resource being the continuous measurement. Compared to classical analogues, the

 The 5th-century BC Elephantine Papyri are primarily written in Imperial Aramaic, the lingua franca of the Persian Empire, rather than Hebrew script. While used by a Jewish colony for legal and administrative documents, these texts lack Hebrew scripting and reflect the linguistic trends of the era

 

: The papyri, which detail the daily lives of a Judean military colony in Egypt, are composed in Aramaic, which was the standard administrative language used by the Persians from Asia Minor to Egypt.

Absence of Hebrew: While the texts mention Jewish religious practices (such as the Sabbath and Passover), they do not use the Hebrew language or Paleo-Hebrew script.

Connection to Biblical Text: The Aramaic used in these documents is similar to the Aramaic portions found in the biblical books of Ezra and Daniel.

Significance: The find demonstrates that Aramaic was the common language for Jewish writing in the diaspora during this period,

 @janecasper846  My forthcoming book "Plato's Timaeus and the Biblical Creation Accounts" concludes monotheism was taken from Plato. Coming out maybe this fall. I'm sure Derek will interview me about it. https://dn710205.ca.archive.org/0/items/russell-gmirkin-plato-and-the-creation-of-the-hebrew-bible/Russell%20Gmirkin%20-%20Plato%20and%20the%20creation%20of%20the%20Hebrew%20Bible.pdf

 

 Numenius of Apamea, the second century CE Neo-Pythagorean “pagan” philosopher,
famously asserted, “What is Plato but Moses writing in Attic?” (Clement of Alexan-
dria, Miscellanies 1.150.4; Eusebius, Preparation for the Gospel 9.6)

 

 Philo’s writings synthesized the philosophical tenets of Middle Platonism with
Jewish literature and teachings. It is interesting that Philo recorded a yearly fes-
tival at Alexandria in which the seventy elders responsible creating for the Sep-
tuagint translation of the Pentateuch were celebrated as inspired prophets and
legislators on a par with the seventy elders who received the divine law at Mount
Sinai (Philo, Life Of Moses 2.41–42). Greek “plagiarism” of Mosaic writings
was asserted at Philo, Special Laws 4.10.61; Who is the Heir of Divine Things?
213–14; Questions and Answers on Genesis 3.5; 4.152; cf. Runia 1986: 528–9;
Droge 1989: 47–8.

  A class of
scribes with expertise in Mosaic law likely arose among the Jews around 185 BCE
on evidence of Sirach (Sir. 39.1). Priests and legal scholars emerged as the core
groups of fully distinct and opposing Jewish sects in the 160s BCE as the
Sadducees and Pharisees (Neusner 1971: 1.11–23, 61–68; cf. Josephus, Ant.
13.171, 297–8) whose struggle over control of the gerousia led to the intermittent
civil wars of ca. 100-63 BCE

 

 Manetho’s Aegyptiaca of ca. 280 BCE contained tales about the Hyksos over-
throwing the Egyptian gods, and Osarseph, the later Ramesside priest of Seth-
Typhon, also attacking the native gods. Manetho noted a slanderous oral tra-
dition current in his day that identified Moses with Osarseph and the Jewish god
with Seth-Typhon, the god of destruction who overthrew the gods of Egypt.
Remarkably, the biblical Exodus story appears to endorse some elements in this
hostile oral tradition found in Manetho; cf. Gmirkin 2006: 192–214.

 

 he extensive use of the Pentateuch, especially Exodus imagery in Second Isaiah,
indicates a date after ca. 270 BCE. Since all 66 chapters of Isaiah were found in the
Great Isaiah Scroll of Qumran, Second Isaiah certainly pre-dates 125 BCE. All the
prophets were known to Sirach ca. 185 BCE, including Isaiah (Sir. 48.23–25), and
the definition of the Prophets as a literary corpus alongside the Law in Sirach
suggests that the Prophets had already taken definite form. Sir. 18.2–3, which
contains monotheistic claims, is present in only some manuscripts, so is of un-
certain date.

 

 See Gmirkin 2017. Plato’s Laws was used extensively in creating the law collec-
tions of the Pentateuch. Indeed, the Hebrew Bible as a whole was created ac-
cording to the program found in Plato’s Laws, one phase of which was the
construction of a national literature of approved texts consistent with the con-
stitution and law code. The extensive use of Plato’s Laws in the creation of the
Pentateuch and the Hebrew Bible in ca. 270 BCE is significant for the current
discussion, since ontology and cosmogony predominate the discussion of
theology in Plato, Laws 10.

 

 

 

New Jon Stock Sleep Room book on William Walter Sargant mind control torture but "can't prove" MKULTRA ties?

 His treatments resulted in victims’ incontinence, amnesia, forgetting how to talk, forgetting their parents, and thinking their interrogators were their parents.. His [Ewen Cameron] work was inspired and paralleled by the British psychiatrist Dr. William Sargant at St. Thomas‘ Hospital, London, and Belmont Hospital, Surrey, who was also
involved in the Intelligence Services and who experimented extensively on his patients without their consent. causing similar long term damage... Dr.
Cameron and Dr. Sargant are only two identified Canadian experimenters, but the MKULTRA file makes reference to many other unnamed physicians who
were recruited by the ClA.

I just went to the CIA foia archives to search William Sargant and got the above result.

that is an Intellipedia website posting...

Lobotomies, electroconvulsive therapy and sexual abuse — what really happened in Ward 5  

William Sargant psychiatrist pioneering, yet brutal, physical treatments 4 mental illness/mind control Lobotomies, electroconvulsive therapy and sexual abuse — happened in Ward 5

the patients, nearly all of whom were female, were drugged into long-term stupors, being roused from their beds only to be fed, washed or given innumerable doses of ECT.

A typical “narcosis” treatment comprised three months of near-total unconsciousness, after which time the patient had often been reduced to a “walking zombie” with permanent memory loss.

 In recent years writer Gordon Thomas has suggested that Sargant's experiments with deep sleep treatment were part of British involvement with the CIA MKULTRA programme into mind control.^[40] Donald Ewen Cameron was experimenting along similar lines in Canada, and it later emerged that his work was in part funded by the CIA.^[41] Cameron often sought Sargant's advice and on one occasion Sargant sent Cameron a note saying: "Whatever you manage in this field, I thought of it first".^[42] Books about Cameron's experiments have commented on links between the two psychiatrists.^[43] Although Sargant acted as a consultant for MI5, no evidence has emerged that his work with deep sleep treatment at St Thomas' hospital had any links with intelligence services.^[44][45][46]

Will the Ukrainian Holdomor be repeated globally soon? Famine in the midst of Imperial Implosion

 https://www.historynewsnetwork.org/article/review-of-anne-applebaums-red-famine-stalins-war-o

This is a fascinating critique of Anne Applebaum's book Red Famine on the Holdomor in Ukraine. I am not taking a "side" here - but one criticism of Applebaum's claim struck me as curious:

 Applebaum claims that the government’s procurements to alleviate that shortage “comprehensively destroyed the peasants incentives to produce more grain” (87). Yet later she writes that the 1930 harvest was much larger than the 1929 harvest (161). How could that have happened if peasants’ incentives were “comprehensively destroyed”?

Because crops are planted the season before they are harvested!! That's the same reason the lack of fertilizer now will only be felt next Fall when the harvest is to take place. Some farmers in the U.S. are choosing not to farm since the cost of fertilizer is prohibitive or the fertilizer is just not available. That same crisis is now happening worldwide....

 Stalin’s references to mechanized agriculture but dismisses them as a “Soviet cult of science” (87-89), not considering that Soviet leaders and planners were trying to emulate American farming, which was even more mechanized and scientifically based. She does not consider that repeated crop failures, which she mentioned, could have persuaded Soviet leaders that Soviet peasant farming needed to be modernized.¹²  Rather, she attributes the decision to collectivize agriculture to the 1928 Central Committee plenums that allegedly concluded that peasants had to be “squeezed” and “sacrificed” for industry (90-91). Yet modernizing agriculture was a central issue in those plenums. She never mentions that in 1929, the Soviets established VASKhNiL, the central agricultural research academy, under the leadership of the great biologist Nikolai Vavilov, who did not seek to “squeeze” the peasants. 

 Well adopting US "combine" technology has also "squeezed" the farmers in the U.S. also - hence the 1980s "Farm crisis" never ended. The median income of farmers in the U.S. is often negative income or just barely a couple thousand dollars! Most farmers are forced to have an "off-farm" job and those are harder to come by these days. So the farm crisis is worse than ever.

WION news just reported how the soybean farm expansion in Brazil has relied on destroying the rainforest - to the extent of some 40% of soybean farms directly destroying equatorial rainforest. This problem was driven by Cargill installing ILLEGAL soybean storage elevators in the rainforest as I reported back in 2006...And so a US private corporation owned by 14 billionaires - the largest private corporation in the world - directly undermines US farmers when Cargill buys up Brazilian soybeans to export to China and Europe as animal feed....

Meanwhile some 25% of the world's freshwater and oxygen is from the Amazonian rainforest that is turning into a carbon emission source due to abrupt global warming and deforestation to grow soybeans! oops... The point being that modernizing farming worldwide is accelerating the ecological crisis....

A good book on this is "Marx Against the Peasants" - as former MIT history professor David F. Noble points out in his Religion of Technology book - Marxism believed in the "edenic respites" of technology (to quote Marx). But ecology has other things in mind.

Professor Michael E. Hudson's critique of modern economics, AI: 

". and forgive them their debts: Lending, Foreclosure and Redemption From Bronze Age Finance to the Jubilee Year (2018) by economist Michael Hudson examines the history of debt forgiveness from Mesopotamia through the Roman Empire. Hudson argues that ancient societies regularly cancelled debts to prevent economic collapse and debt bondage, a tradition he argues is essential for modern economic health 

 emphasizes that ecology is a nonlinear S-curve while finance is exponential growth and the true message of Jesus was sin as debt - to reestablish the Good News of debt forgiveness...

  Yet she admits that in 1931 there were “bouts of drought,” which is an understatement; even Stalin publicly stated that drought “considerably” reduced the 1931 harvest.¹⁴  Russia and Ukraine had a long history of droughts and famines, which she admits (283); how can she know that no one, even peasants, saw the drought as a cause of shortages? In discussing the regime’s decision in spring 1932 to stop the procurements and provide food and seed for the villages to produce a new harvest, she asserts that officials “knew” that “food aid to Ukraine was a tacit admission of Stalin’s failure,” but also “knew” that “catastrophe would follow” if Ukraine did not get aid (173). 

 Food Aid has been used by the U.S. to create Imperial dependence and it sounds like the same technique was used to try to undermine the Ukrainian peasants. For example Cargill dumped grain into somalia at 1/6th the local food price - I had a published University op-ed exposing this. Cargill has offices in 80 countries and all these offices trade through Switzerland in derivatives as speculative gambling of "futures" - so Cargill made billions from the 2008 global crash. 

Obviously if there is a drought but there is also an industrialization process of increasing urban city populations then there is going to be a bad distribution of food to feed the cities at the expense of the suffering rural areas. The cities are relying on an "infinite growth" economies whereas traditional peasants realize that farm crops will have bad years.

Now we realize that the droughts and flooding and extreme weather will increase exponentially as the Ruddiman Hypothesis has been proven correct - the invention of farming triggered abrupt global warming globally.

The review of Applebaum's book in the end blames the peasants for withholding and thus profiteering from growing food - but growing food again is a gamble against the cycles of Nature - the soil loses fertility, the weather can be extreme. Any profits by farmers have to be invested back into planting trees to maintain soil fertility or doing intensive rotational grazing - meaning more land is needed to maintain soil fertility. Farming requires that profits have to be recycled back into Nature - unless we try to rely on synthetic input farming whereby the soil is no longer fertile but dependent on external inputs that just run off into the ocean.

Now even the ocean is being killed off and that's the source of 75% of the world's oxygen - oops. 90% of global warming heat has been absorbed by the oceans and those some 50 gigatons of heat will be releasing back into the atmosphere now as the ocean circulation is shut down.

Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint in the Persian Gulf, is causing what the IEA has called the “largest supply disruption in the history of the global oil market”. 

A fifth of the world’s oil and LNG is normally shipped through this region, with 90% of those supplies going to destinations in Asia. Without these supplies, fuel prices have surged.

Governments around the world have taken emergency actions in response to this new energy crisis, shielding their citizens from price spikes, conserving energy where possible and considering longer-term energy policies.

Even with a two-week ceasefire announced, the energy crisis is expected to continue, given the extensive damage to infrastructure and continuing uncertainties.

the Celestial Key to the Vedas is 10,000 years old? B.G. Sidharth physicist book reviews by Robert Tulip (Christos)

  " It is possible that the sculpture originally formed the handle of a mirror.[2] The yakshi is evidence of commercial trade between India and Rome in the first century CE. However, the iconography, in particular the exposed genitals, reveals that the figure is more likely to depict a yakshi, a female tree spirit that represents fertility, or possibly a syncretic version of Venus-Sri-Lakshmi from an ancient exchange between Classical Greco-Roman and Indian cultures.[1] The figure is now in the Secret Museum in the Naples National Archaeological Museum.[5] Contents The statuette was discovered in October 1938 beside the Casa dei Quattro stili at Pompeii."

 Of particular interest is the observation that the Rig Veda refers to a mythical era that corresponds to the date of 7300 B.C. This date is shown to "refer to an epoch when the vernal equinox was in Tishya or Pushya" (p.65)--where Tishya and Pushya are Indian lunar asterisms (i.e. constellations). The author's conjecture that the Rig Veda had its origins in a civilization dating back to the 8th millennium B.C. would seem to agree with the discovery of an Anatolian civilization belonging to the same era (p.7). Interestingly, an Anatolian sculpture dating from that era would seem to be that of the clean-shaven head of a Vedic priest, complete with its characteristic pigtail (pp.8,160).

 Archaeologists excavating the Neolithic urban settlement of Çatalhöyük in central Turkey have unearthed the figurine of a voluptuous woman in excellent condition. More than 2,000 figurines have been found at Çatalhöyük, but very few of them intact like this one. Several of them were also Mother figures; this is the first one to be found intact and with finely crafted details. It is also unusual in that it was discovered under a platform next to a piece of obsidian where it appears to have been deliberately placed likely for ritual purposes rather than discarded in garbage pits where archaeologists have found many broken statuettes, mostly made of clay. The beautiful Seated Woman of Çatalhöyük, for example, who is herself a zaftig female archetype seated on a throne and captured in the very act of giving birth, was found missing her head and the right hand rest in the shape of a leopard or panther head.

Çatalhöyük is one of the largest and most significant Neolithic settlements, which blossomed during the 8th to late 7th millennium B.C..

The Sculpture: While the "seated woman of Çatalhöyük" is a famous figurine from this period, discussions linking Anatolian finds to Indo-Vedic origins often point to various, sometimes uniquely styled, human and animal figures found at the site.

Ritualistic Nature: These figurines, often crafted from clay or stone, were typically discovered in domestic settings and are considered to have had ritualistic significance.

 The excavations in the fortress are also the first archaeological diggings on the eastern coast of the Black Sea.

Cybele, an Anatolian mother goddess, is the symbol of prosperity with her pregnant belly, seated on her throne.

In Anatolian mythology she was the personification of the earth. In Greek mythology in which she was equated to Earth-goddess Gaia, Cybele was mostly associated with fertile nature, mountains, town and city walls, as well as wild animals such as lions.

 Shifting the Paradigm on Ancient Culture
This book by Indian scientist Dr BG Sidharth presents a highly plausible account of the original purpose and connections of Vedic thought, describing the allegorical richness and antiquity of the hidden cosmology in the oldest Indian literature.
Recognising the profundity of Vedic thought has broad cultural implications. It is important to see Vedic connections to Judeo-Christian and Greek thought, and to refute the modern imperial dogmas that have subordinated India to Europe in mythology as well as in politics over the last few centuries.
A key theme highlighted by Dr Sidharth is the method of camouflage used by the original Vedic authors. Many obscure images in Vedic literature appear to be part of secret mystery initiation wisdom traditions, giving accurate astronomical information in code, while concealing the real meaning from the public. In many cases, it is entirely possible to assess the most probable original meaning. Alas, the oral traditions that held the ancient real meaning have been largely broken. Yet this principle of encoding astronomy in myth provides an effective heuristic to interpret Vedic ideas, a method that can help to assess what the real purpose and meaning of the texts really are.
This ancient camouflage method that Dr Sidharth documents in Vedic literature also applies to the Bible, with much of its imagery serving as parable for secret astronomical wisdom. Assessing the probable meaning of such codes offers a scientific rather than fundamentalist method to understand what the authors intended.
With the Vedas, it appears there really were ancient astronomers in India who understood accurate knowledge that was later lost. This seems the most plausible reason why the Vedas include concealed information on the accurate timing of the month and year, and the timing of precession of the equinoxes at just under 72 years per degree. Finding such hidden possibilities is important in shifting assumptions about western superiority, origins and timing. It appears that the Indian origins of the Vedas were in oral traditions that are many thousands of years older than is often assumed.
The racist claim from the colonial era that all Indian knowledge actually came from Europe continues to exert a surprisingly widespread and baleful influence which this book helps to overcome. Other excellent books which also help to destroy this persistent pernicious myth of western origins of science include Black Athena by Martin Bernal, on the eastern roots of western thought, and The Memory Code by Lynne Kelly, which demonstrates that this Vedic camouflage method of transmitting important knowledge is actually universal among pre-literate societies.

   It is a matter of astronomical fact that the cycle of time establishes twelve zodiacal ages in the Great Year. There are numerous references to the Great Year throughout the Bible. The twelve foundation stones of the holy city are the twelve Aeons, Christ as Alpha and Omega is the turning point of time between two Great Years, the end of the Aeon or Age discussed by Christ is the end of the Age of Pisces, and the various fish and lamb symbols indicate the natural temporal shift of the sun from the Age of Aries (the lamb) to the Age of Pisces (the fish) at the time of Christ. Murdock comments that rather than being a real person, Jesus Christ symbolizes the mythical avatar of the Piscean Age (p457).

Such ideas were viewed by the church as heresy. The Gnostics were condemned for seeking to explain in natural terms how eternal truth could be manifest in human life. Their cosmic framework of twelve ages, with Christ symbolizing the turning point of time, provided a purely empirical explanation for Jesus as a symbol of the connection between humanity and eternity. Precession explains how our planet is evolving against what Ezekiel called the `wheels within wheels' of the cosmos and what Plato, in the Timaeus, called the relation between the same (the cosmos) and the different (the solar system) (p227). This Gnostic heresy of the twelve ages provides an accurate scientific basis to understand the real nature of Christ.

15 billionaires earned $66.6 billion each in past 18 months as half of US fascist corporate wealth increase ($1 trillion)

 $66,666,666,666 = 1 trillion/15 people over 16 months (I increased it to 18 months since I'm just that nice).

Tax Wealth activists just released this info... Why the fascists insist that fascism was socialist and not corporate control of the state? hilarious.

Key German Corporate Fascist Supporters IG Farben: A massive chemical conglomerate that was a major financial backer of the Nazis. It produced Zyklon B, the poison gas used in concentration camps, and its leaders were tried for war crimes. Krupp: A major arms manufacturer that supported the Nazis and used forced labor. Volkswagen: Founded in 1937 by the Nazi party to produce the "people's car," the company heavily used forced laborers from concentration camps. BMW: Günther Quandt and his son Herbert Quandt, who controlled large stakes in BMW, were Nazi party members. Their factories used forced labor. Deutsche Bank: Involved in the "Aryanization" of the German economy, which involved seizing Jewish-owned businesses. Siemens: Involved in using forced labor during the Holocaust. Hugo Boss: Designed and manufactured Nazi uniforms. Continental: Used concentration camp detainees for labor, including testing rubber shoe soles to exhaustion. Topf and Sons: Supplied the incineration ovens used in Auschwitz and other concentration camps. 

International Corporations with Nazi Ties 

General Motors (GM): Owned Opel, a German car manufacturer that supplied vehicles to the Nazi military. Researcher Bradford Snell argued that GM was crucial to the Nazi war machine. 

Ford Motor Company: Ford's German subsidiary, Ford-Werke, produced military vehicles using forced labor. Henry Ford was known for his anti-Semitic views. IBM: Supplied punch card machines (Hollerith systems) through its German subsidiary, Dehomag, which helped the Nazis categorize populations and track prisoners, including during the Holocaust. 

 Coca-Cola: Its German subsidiary created Fanta to maintain sales during wartime supply shortages. Standard Oil (now ExxonMobil/Chevron): Provided technology and resources that helped Germany with synthetic rubber and fuel, crucial for the war effort. 

 IT&T (International Telephone & Telegraph): Held significant shares in German aircraft manufacturer Focke-Wulf. 

Chase National Bank (now JPMorgan Chase): Engaged in financial activities for the Nazi regime. Associated Press (AP): Maintained a formal agreement with the Nazi regime and hired Nazi propagandists. 

Key Takeaways on Collaboration Forced Labor: Many companies, both German and foreign-owned, utilized slave labor from concentration camps, particularly as the war progressed. Motivation: While some owners were sympathetic to Nazi ideology, many businesses were motivated by the prospect of lucrative contracts and maintaining market presence. Post-War Status: After 1945, many of these companies reabsorbed their German subsidiaries and, in some cases, were compensated by the Allied governments for damages to their German factories, including those that were bombed
