Secrets of Dust Cave with Lara Homsey-Messer - host Mark Eddy

Anthropology professor LARA HOMSEY-MESSER joins us to discuss her lengthy tenure at Alabama's Dust Cave.  The start of the occupation of this cave goes back to nearly the Ice Age.  It is contemporary with Gobekli Tepe.  What do the artifacts reveal about the numerous cultural occupations of this site?  What do they tell us about the peoples' day to day lives?  Do we see patters in other caves across the eastern U.S.?  Since caves are becoming more of a focus in archaeology, what are they saying about our past?  We will also dig into other of Lara's projects like the Monongahela Culture's Squirrel Hill site and its palisaded village.  Be prepared to have your IQs raised

Making Peace With Death and Dying with Judith Johnson

this book is  a guide to those seeking to consciously grow, serve, and thrive as elders,  Making Peace with Death and Dying is a comprehensive, powerful, and vitally important resource. Judith Johnson’s book is unique in its exploration of virtually every facet of death and dying in the contemporary world. It paints a vivid picture of how the strong cultural denial of dying and death disempowers and disables us from preparing in so many important ways for one of life’s most natural, and important, experiences. And it contrasts this with a rapidly emerging (yet grounded in many of the world’s spiritual traditions) understanding of how to meet death with compassion, acceptance, trust, and even curiosity. A significant section of this book is devoted to reflections, exercises, and poignant stories which help you explore your relationship to your mortality. These are in support of the book’s invitation to befriend life’s final passage and the smaller endings throughout life as opportunities for growth, compassion, and true embracing of each precious experience of this transitory mortal life.” 

Judiths life and experiences add great richness to the wisdom she shares in all of her books, please visit her website at  www.judithjohnson.com to learn more about her and her amazing journey.

Arthur Conan Doyle & Houdini w/Christopher Sandford, Host, Dr. Zoh Hieronimus

Renowned mystery author Arthur Conan Doyle and famous illusionist Harry Houdini first met in 1920, during the magician's tour of England. At the time, Conan Doyle had given up his lucrative writing career, killing off Sherlock Holmes in the process, in order to concentrate on his increasingly manic interest in Spiritualism. Houdini, who regularly conducted séances in an attempt to reach his late mother, was also infatuated with the idea of what he called a "living afterlife," though his enthusiasm came to be tempered by his ability to expose fraudulent mediums, many of whom employed crude variations of his own well-known illusions. Using previously unpublished material on the murky relationship between Houdini and Conan Doyle, this sometimes macabre, sometimes comic tale tells the fascinating story of the relationship between two of the most loved figures of the 20th century and their pursuit of magic and lost loved ones. Hosted by Dr. Zohara Hieronimus. Produced by Hieronimus & Co. for 21st Century Radio®.  Edited version provided to Nightlight Radio with permission.

Still on Fire: Field Notes From a Queer Mystic with Jan Phillips

Jan Phillips was a devoted Catholic who wanted nothing more than to be a nun and who joyously entered the convent at 18. Two years later, she was dismissed for “a disposition unsuited to religious life, with excessive and exclusive friendships.” She was lesbian. She had always known it. “It was being homosexual that made me want to kill myself [at 12]. As far as I knew, there was nothing worse than being queer. They were perverts, sinners, hated by God, hated by just about everyone. Lezzies, bull dykes, fags, queers, lesbos―all damned, and there I was, one of them.” Still on Fire is a memoir of religious wounding and spiritual healing, of judgment and forgiveness, and of social activism in a world that is in our hands. Phillips traveled the globe on a one-woman peace pilgrimage, raised the consciousness of women, faced her privilege on a trip to India, and is working to dismantle structural racism.  The Livingkindness Foundation supports schoolchildren in Nigeria. “Any spirituality that does not bring about more justice, more social awareness, more right action in the world is a lame and impotent excuse for faith … Her action for justice is my her spirituality.” Over the years, Phillips created a life of love, service, community, and prayer. She evolved her understanding of God and came to see herself―and all of us―as the light of the world. “Had I not been born gay … my heart would not have broken in half, would not have opened itself to Love Supreme, would not have been tenderized by life’s bitter pounding.” She tells the story of her life with humor and compassion, sharing her poetry, songs, and photos along the way.

Ingo Swann’s Psychic Literacy and the Coming Psychic Renaissance

A previously unknown manuscript by the famous psychic Ingo Swann was discovered posthumously in the special collections library at the University of West Georgia.  Written in 1989 but not published until 2018, this book has finally found the right time for the general public to appreciate it. We are joined by three guests to find out why. 

 First, Elly Flippen, niece of Ingo Swann, currently responsible for Ingo's social media sites, managing his publications, and, the documentary about Ingo's life, together with her mother, Murleen Swann Ryder, Ingo’s sister. Second, Blynne Oliveri, Head of Special Collections at the University of West Georgia's library, managing rare book and archival collections which include extensive holdings on the topic of human consciousness, with particular focus on remote viewing, near-death experiences, and holistic human experiences. In 2013 the estate of Ingo Swann presented Ingo’s archives to the University, where they discovered a previously unknown manuscript. And third, LTC (Ret)Thomas McNear, whom Ingo considered to be his best student ever, and was the only member Ingo trained in all stages of remote viewing. Tom was one of the first members of the Army psychic spying program known today as Star Gate.
