Mark Passio & the "What on Earth is Happening?" website

Ok, I watched a few more videos. Definitely him! Funny thing is I had studied conspiracy theories for many years prior to working with him and never discussed them with him.

He never took anything lightly, he was deeply studied in everything he did (including death metal and cheese steaks). He was a crazy evangelist for Mac OS X, lecturing all of OS 9 users about the miraculous future of a unix-based, multi-threaded environment that would never crash!

Evangelist indeed... I listened to both the interview and his interpretation of the Matrix trilogy. I agree with others in this thread concerning his "output" and interpretations on matters discussed.
What stood out for me was (again) the question of psychopathy. According to Mark there's only about 1% of them, or even less!
Hmm. I think that is giving humanity zero credibility, that so small amount of "rougues" could do so much damage.
 
I've come across Mark Passio's work yesterday, via a post on Facebook from Bernhard Guenther (the lecture was presented on October 19, 2013):

Bernhard Guenther said:
The past couple of days I've been watching the "Natural Law" seminar by Mark Passio. I highly recommend watching the whole lecture. He lays out the basics in a very grounded and comprehensive way. 8hrs and 44 min long, worth every minute. I haven't seen so much common sense and application of the Trivium and critical thinking in a talk like this in a long time. He covers important esoteric/occult subjects and brings them down to an understandable format, showing that there is an absolute truth and objective reality, which we must align ourselves with if we truly want a shift in consciousness. He talks about the importance of gaining Knowledge and sincere self-work as well as understanding the true meaning and definition of certain words, which most of us are not even aware of. Some of you may get triggered by some of the things he says, challenging popular beliefs, but he hits the nail on the head about many issues and is very well spoken. Much of it aligns with my own works as well.

Here is the lecture (I recommend it highly, despite a few minor glitches):




I agree that this presentations is indeed brilliant in a "grounded and comprehensive way" that is easy to understand.
In fact it quite astounding how good and to the point it is. It sort of presents a lot of what we discuss here in a comprehensive and easy to understand way.

But there are certain things that make me wonder about Passio (that were also discussed here on this thread), how much of what he describes so brilliantly, he has actually applied, as he stresses so much?

There is a saying:
"By their fruits you shall know them"
and in the case of Passio I'm wondering how I can reconcile this obvious profound knowledge about our reality, to things like vegetarianism that he is practicing (I don't know if that is still the case?)?

I also get a feeling of some sort of stolidness in what he is saying. I have the feeling that it might be pretty difficult for him to be truly open minded to everything and see all always as a probability that can change at any time, with new information, despite his acknowledgement that he is truly open minded to everything.

And as in so many cases, I think he drastically underestimates, or does not know or understand fully, the problem of Psychopathy and Ponerology.
That is a very big and important piece of the puzzle. At one point he is saying something like, that he thinks he can trust his feelings about other people now pretty much, through the work he has done to get a sense of who they are and what their real intentions are. Well, kind of a dangerous thing to assume, as we know...

There seems to be some kind of disconnect, even though his presentation is indeed brilliant in more then one way!

Somehow he reminds me of Jan Irvin, who also seems to be quite brilliant in many aspects, but there are certain tastes (I would also describe it as some sort of stolidness) in how he is doing what he does, as well as some red flags like his continued usage of pot and believing in chemtrails etc...

In both cases I sort of get the feeling that they might have gone over the edge at some point, which might make it very hard for them to address their egos and possible sacred cows that they might still have and how that might effect their research that is supposedly based on "critical thinking" and the trivium.

Another thing I picked up: Passio showed a very poor understanding of strategic enclosure. He has that typical "zealous truther" bug of thinking we should speak the full, unvarnished truth to everybody everywhere, damn the consequences. At least this was true of him in Sept of 2012 when he gave that talk. I'd recommend watching the Aug 2013 interview, or at least the first 15 minutes. Maybe his understanding has grown somewhat over the past year.

Well, that also struck me and could be another sign of some kind of disconnect IMO.

Regarding that sort of approach, here is what Passio expressed in the second video I just posted above [2:15:09 - 2:18:35]:

Edit: A bit more of what Passio is saying...
 
I've been listening to Passio's stuff for a few months, since I came across him via an interview the "Peace Revolution Podcast" hosted by Richard Grove (who also did the Ultimate History Lesson with John Taylor Gatto).

Personally, I think he's great. There may be discrepancies (ala vegetarianism), but I don't think that's enough to write him off. His understanding of the principles of self-development is really deep. His understanding of history and etymology is also impressive. Personally, it seems a bit short-sighted to me to discredit him just because he's a vegetarian.

Regarding the heavy metal connection, he did say in one lecture that he used to be a priest in the satanic church, and he extracted himself from that world to pursue truth. I think his zealotry may (likely) come from that life experience.

I actually think he would be a great guest on the SOTT podcast. In fact, I came on the forum today to make a post suggesting that for a future episode, and found this thread when I did a search on his name. I still think he would be a great guest, and that speaking with the SOTT crew would be beneficial for everyone involved. My 2 cents... :)
 
By the way, in the last video he is telling us some names of people who's work he likes [1:19:55 - 1:20:15]
Amoung them is David Icke...
 
Pashalis said:

I would like to get some feedback on what he is saying in the third video above [2:32:38 - 3:15:00] because it strikes me as very well put and brilliant, much in alliance to our understanding of the matter of what the real root of evil is in this world and the resulting human condition our species is living in. Just so you know, Psychopaths are also mentioned in a specific way and context to the rest of us...

But again something in his interpretation/approach seems to be to rough and maybe (??) a bit to black and white? Maybe, as mentioned above, the concept of strategic enclosure is a bit twisted or not well enough applied or known by Passio? Also the issue of Free Will and how it applies to us and others and the way he understands it, might play a role in this too? He admits that he has problems with networking skills and specifically with "people skills" aka interacting with people (my guess). But he says that he needs to work on that. Maybe that can explain quite a bit of the above?

What do you think?
 
I noticed that he is going to be in Ascheville, NC Sat March 22. Forum Members in that area might consider attending. http://www.whatonearthishappening.com/news/416-attend-mark-s-new-presentation-new-age-bullshit-revisited-march-22-2014-in-asheville-nc

I agree that Mark would be an interesting SOTT radio guest. It would likely be a learning experience for he and us.

I became aware of Passio's work in 2010 or thereabouts, it may have been initially due to an interview he did with Jan Irving of Gnosticmedia. I spent alot of my free time going through alternative media at that time, hoping to blend all these overviews into 'some' cohesive narrative to work from and so i listened to 30+ of them, perhaps more. At 2 hours-ish each and i think he's on his 100+ episode by now.

Passio seemed very knowledgeable on the occult, very well read, offered his work for free, was very happy to speak (and LISTEN) to callers, and interestingly, had on the ground experience; he is a self confessed former member of the church of Satan. He declares to have interacted with many satanists in public positions "they call the police, their dogs" (a favourite quote of his). I 'enjoyed' and could see coherence in his presentations on the Oz, symbolism; though of late i am beginning to think this topic - not necessarily him - is more of a diversion than anything else. Though he acknowledges the multi dimensional possibilities of our world (and mentions in 'Cosmic Abandonment' he does not 'know or care' whether it's ET/dimensional etc..) he does not state explicitly which he thinks..

More importantly is his work on Natural Law and sovereignty. It was the first time i had heard this clearly explicated, in both the world of matter and metaphysics, that i benefited from his work here the most. What i gathered was: "Natural Law is defined by what you can't do to others, rather than what you can" .

From memory: around that time (2010) he stated he had moved to a vegetarian/raw/juicing diet. After many years of a typically American diet he was overweight and suffering with diabetes, which he attributed to his nutrition, and had noticed improvements with his health almost immediately. [this we know can merely be due to eating less inflammatory produce rather than vegetarianism itself]

He recommends Icke, but also Michael Tsarion; who he is particularly gushing about.
As mentioned, at the time i was trawling alternative media for information and Tsarion really chucks a great many leads and tid bits. Problem is, i've come to realise for myself, it seems as though this is the most effective vector! Say everything, quote all books and theories whilst declaring (oh so humbly) that you do not wish to 'talk about myself' or 'private life'. Then in the next breath bad mouthing carnivores (aka human beings) for supporting the 'cult of death'. this could be where Passio finds support for his vegetarianism (he may have even talked Veganism, i'm fairly sure he a 'strict healthy month' to kick start it).

Recently he visited a 'End the fed' rally - and though he was doing nothing wrong - rubbed the law up the wrong way and was locked up for handing out fliers.

It was because of this incident i began to query, is he another agent encouraging petty arrests via the 'freeman movement'?

Overall though, to me, he seems like a very intellectual and intelligent fellow, who by his account, was disaffected with a religious background found solace and knowledge with the naughty satanists, but on realising the error of his ways, he now attempts to right things by educating others.

He has organised two 'Free Your Mind' Conferences which hosts the usual mix bag of presenters, some worthwhile, and he admits it was tough going with guests, venues, ticket sales etc.. He eventually uploads the talks to youtube, though it can be anything up to a year later.

His experiences in the past sound eery and he has never confessed to any seriously negative actions; he incorporates his experiences well - honestly and openly - and it appears to be one of his main motivators.

SO! Though i've changed my mind on Tsarion, Passio is providing information from a different and critical perspective. Oh, he also promotes the Trivium.

Like Tsarion, i could be wrong about Passio! - might i add it was this forum which helped me see the unquestioned aspects of Tsarion's work, persona etc..
 
About the idea of "natural law", maybe that one of the inspiration of Mark Passio is C.S. Lewis :

I recommend also Mark Passio's videos, and if it is too long, you can download them (with the plugin Youtube Options (Full Version) by example) and use VLC to speed them up.

His style reminds me the "initiation method" of masonry, or at least one branch of it, so I think there is a "pattern" behind it. Interesting.
It's also somewhat similar to Bill Cooper (see : Mystery Babylon series).
 
Also forgot to mention the fact that Mark Passio's last lecture about Nephilims :
Cosmic Abandonment : _http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiCnrn6LkUo

is very interesting to be compared with the book "Eden" (by Anton Parks) that you can find here :

Here it is:


By the way the full title of that presentation is:

Cosmic Abandonment - An Explanatory Synthesis Regarding Human Origins, Psychopathy, Slavery And The Current Psychological And Social Conditions Of Humanity"

And the full video description is as follows:

This is Mark Passio's presentation "Cosmic Abandonment - An Explanatory Synthesis Regarding Human Origins, Psychopathy, Slavery And The Current Psychological And Social Conditions Of Humanity" which was presented in Philadelphia, PA on December 12, 2013 as part of the Philadelphia UFO Meetup Group, http://www.meetup.com/phillyufo hosted by Chris Augustin. Filmed and edited by John King.

In this two-hour presentation, Mark links ancient accounts of extraterrestrial visitation to our planet with the manifestation of the psychological conditions in which the human species currently finds itself. Questions explored include: Were we actually created by non-human entities as a hybrid slave species? Did our extraterrestrial "parents" inadvertently create a slew of genetic anomalies in the human species, including primary psychopathy, as a result of their imprecise genetic modifications? Did our extraterrestrial forbearers provide to us our systems of government, money, and religion; and to what ends did they do so? What effect did our "cosmic parents" sudden disappearance have upon the collective human psyche? What does humanity need to understand to rectify the deeply-seated psychological trauma that it has amassed over eons, as a direct result of our troubled origins?

I'm about 1 hour into the video and I think regular readers of this forum will easily find a bunch of inconsistencies and red flags in that presentation.

Even though he is saying at the beginning that he refers to extraterrestrials in a brought sense (aka. the phenomenon could also be hyper dimensional, demonic etc. PP.). He clearly later supports the idea that they are in indeed "extraterrestrial" through the way he presents his information. I guess he hasn't a whole lot of knowledge about the paranormal/hyperdimensional aspect of that topic. It seems that he is basing a whole lot of his interpretations, from sumerian texts "translated" by the work of Zecharia Sitchin... The Annunaki stuff.

Thus it is not suprising that he interprets a lot of those accounts as literal facts, while missing the trickery of higher levels. Basically he is interpreting the material about "Aliens" from a human perspective. Thus the idea that we could be some kind of food for them doesn't even enter into his material/picture as of yet.

While I find the idea of "Cosmic Abandonment - An Explanatory Synthesis Regarding Human Origins, Psychopathy, Slavery And The Current Psychological And Social Conditions Of Humanity" fascinating, I think he is missing the mark when he attributes this feeling to extra terestrials that left the earth at one point.

The idea of a feeling or underlying current of a Cosmic Abandonment by the mass consciousness of humanity might really be true, but not in the way he is suggesting it.

Maybe a feeling or underlying current of a Cosmic Abandonment, by the mass consciousness of humanity, from the universe itself might explain it better?
 
After going through a few of his videos and podcasts I am not sure if he would be good guest on SOTT radio. He would likely try to dominate the conversation turning it into an oration. Of course the SOTT team would not allow that. He seems very full of himself, very sure of the results of his own findings.

His recommendations of David Icke and Alex Jones are indeed disturbing. Discernment about some things is not one of his strong points. And he doesn't mention Laura and Ark's work at all that I that I have found.

It would be encouraging if he had a forum on his website with himself as an active participant. He doesn't seem to network, at least not publicly, sharing ideas and learning from it.

That said he is definitely working in the same general direction as we are. He is very insightful about the how the control system operates and the great efforts it takes for us to free ourselves of it.

I listened to about an hour of his Natural Law seminar series and a few bits of some of his other videos. Seems like he has done quite a bit of research into esoteric and occult topics including some of the concepts discussed here.

In the first Natural Law video he says the truth consists of what has already happened and what's happening now, and that's it's impossible to change what happened in the past - that's not entirely true based on what is discussed here about the modus operandi of higher density STS types. He is a little too materialistic perhaps.

I agree with others here that his apparent endorsement of David Icke and Alex Jones is a red flag.

Like AJ, his emotional and reasoning centers may be a bit mixed up. I think it was Jane Robert's Seth who said that the reason the Apostle Paul was such a zealot was that he had spent too much time traveling down the 'wrong' road. I have to wonder about anyone who 'chooses' to join a satanic church. I was under the impression that at least most satanists were born into that family (of dark), that Satanism was like the an ancient Phratry or domestic family religion. So, as a satanist, he would have likely been on a very low level.

Having him as a guest on a podcast could possibly just create a lot of noise, but could also be quite a learning experience... would have to proceed with a great deal of caution/CARE.

I found his material very interesting and disturbing at the same time. It's unsettling to see someone work so hard and be so right and yet so wrong at the same time.

My 2 cents anyway.
