CAPSTONE
HOUSE ANNUAL MEETING AT GULF COAST COMMUNITY COLLEGE
The keynote speaker for our Annual Conference in 2003 ,was the
renowned physicist and cognitive scientist Harold Puthoff, Ph.D.,
the Director of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Austin,
Texas. He earned his doctorate at Stanford University where he
conducted research in quantum electronics, parapsychology and
Remote Viewing. One part of his presentation was on Remote
Viewing. The other part was based on his recent work including
study of the zero point energy of the vacuum of space and probable
applications for alternative energy sources and breakthrough space
propulsion methods. He is a physicist that is not blind to psychic
phenomena such as appeared in Remote Viewing. He was the most
exciting speaker we have had. .
Noetic
and New Sciences
meets the first Tuesday every month at Capstone
House at 7PM. Currently
studying the many aspects of consciousness including in particular
the "Global Consciousness Project" centered at Princeton
University and directed by Dr. Roger Nelson. The local Noetic
Sciences
Coordinator is Ed Wilbanks (e-mail: edwilbanks@knology.net).
John Anthony West was speaker for Capstone House
Annual Conference, October 16, 2004. He lectured on The
Mystery of the Sphinx and The Magic of Egypt. Mr..
West is an Egyptologist who has been sudying and wriiting
about ancient Egypt for nearly three decades. He is the foremost
exponent of the "Symbolist" school of Egyptology, which
demonstrates an ancient sacred science where some modern academics
see mainly superstition. West's work redating the Great Sphinx
of Giza via geology, (proving that it must be at least 10,000
years old or older) was the subject of a 1993 NBC Special, "The
Mystery of the Sphinx" hosted by Charlton Heston. Viewed
by 30,000,000 people, this was one of the most successful documentaries
ever shown, and it has escalated into a heated international scholarly
controversy. West won an Emmy in 1993 for Best Research for his
work on the video. West's non fiction books include "Serpent
in the Sky: The High Wisdom of Ancient Egypt" (a detailed
examination of the symbolist interpretation of Egypt), "The
Traveler's Key to Ancient Egypt", and "The Case for
Astrology". He has also written short stories, a novel, plays,
and film scripts. His essays and criticism have appeared in The
New York Times, and other prominent publications. In part
one of his lecture West will present his revolutionary theory
redating-via geology- the Great Sphinx of Giza and he will discuss
its profound implications for history and for the evolution of
human civilization. In part two he will introduce the sacred science
of ancient Egypt, the body of knowledge responsible for Egypt's
temples and pyramids--which move us, even in ruins, because their
builders were masters of an ancient sacred science, a science
of cosmic principles. West will summarize the elements of theis
great ancient dictrine that fused art, science, philosophy and
religion into one coherent whole--the meaning behind the magic.
