December 1, 2023 2^nd Hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce opened with Jeanie updating listeners on the ongoing MindShifters support groups, including news from Dr. Androcki, who has resumed his group with a unique format using a Hallmark movie to spark reflection on perception. Michael Ryce then shared about rediscovering an old video of his communication workshop, “Did You Hear What I Think I Said?” He described the core teaching—that what we perceive is not reality itself but a picture painted on the inside of our eyeballs, based on the brain cells we have developed. Using his classic whiteboard example, he illustrated how different people see Kilroy, a Volkswagen, or a two-door igloo, though they are all only lines on a board. The lesson emphasized that meanings projected onto the world are not about the world itself but about the content of our minds.

Ryce connected this insight to The Course in Miracles lesson, “I have given everything I see all the meaning it has for me,” and to Paul’s phrase about seeing “through a glass darkly.” He stressed that responsibility means owning these internal meanings instead of blaming others. Hostility, fear, and pain are internal constructs, not caused by outside people or events. Forgiveness is the tool to collapse false perceptions and release inherited generational energies. Ryce explained that most of human culture operates in the “one world religion of blame,” using projection and denial to avoid responsibility for inner pain. The alternative is responsibility communication, a language that acknowledges “this is mine” and seeks support for healing, rather than accusing others.

Callers expanded the conversation. One caller reflected on Aramaic terms like shebag (forgiveness), Rukha d’Koodsha (Holy Spirit), and the importance of understanding “sin” as simply “off the mark” rather than guilt. Ryce explained how the Greeks mistranslated the first law as “love God and neighbor,” while in Aramaic, Yeshua actually spoke of Rakhma (a frontal-lobe filter and gateway to Love) and Khooba (a filter over perception). Together, they create “perfect love” that casts out fear. These filters allow only Love-based intentions and perceptions to operate, aligning the mind with its true design. Another caller raised questions about helping someone on the spectrum with PTSD, and Ryce explained that modeling responsibility communication and using forgiveness tools can build new brain cells for healing even in difficult cases. Jeanie added practical resources, including information on Veteran Advocacy Associates, which can provide financial assistance for veterans needing care.

The show underscored that transformation is not instant—it requires a lifetime of dedicated work to weaken old generational patterns and cultivate new brain cells for truth. Forgiveness and responsibility communication provide the tools to dissolve blame, own one’s inner life, and return to living as Love itself.

Caller Susan talks with Dr. Tim about giving or not giving and emotional blocks. Judging ‘right or wrong’ is a trap – jumped out of the pathway of the heart. Give up what I think I know. Give up what I think I want or need. If I don’t help this family then I am a bad person.

2nd hour prerecorded “On Creating Consciously” Part 2

You can purchase the 2 hr DVD at https://whyagain.org/product/on-creating-consciously-keys-to-abundance/

December 4, 2023 2^nd hour hosted by dr michael ryce featured a replay of Michael Ryce’s workshop On Creating Consciously, Part Two. Jeanie introduced the program, noting she was experiencing physical discomfort and would share this recording. Michael began by unpacking the phrase, “Let thine eye be single and thy body will be filled with light.” In Aramaic, this means allowing reality to be focused and singular. He tied this to physics, explaining that matter is light energy solidified, and that what we focus on with mind energy materializes in the world. He cited studies with Swami Rama, who altered his physiology through meditation, and Candace Pert’s research on neuropeptides, showing that every thought produces molecules which influence cellular replication. In this way, destructive thoughts create stress and disease at the cellular level, while loving thoughts generate health.

Ryce connected this to the Aramaic meaning of the Beatitudes. Rather than “Blessed are they who mourn their wrongs, for they shall be comforted,” the Aramaic says, “A latent neural structure implanted by God to guide you to happiness and well-being will become your conscious possession, you who look into your errors in thought, for you will be cured of mental stress.” He explained that Yeshua was teaching people to take responsibility for their physiology by purifying their thought energy. Hatred, condemnation, and gossip were described as forms of poison that defile the temple of the body. Shifts in predominant resonant energy determine whether the system expresses health or disease, just as an FM radio locks onto one signal at a time. Miracle healings, he said, are not supernatural but lawful shifts in energy and focus.

Michael stressed that forgiveness is central to reversing destructive patterns. In Aramaic, forgiveness means “to cancel, to untie, to let loose.” This dissolves error-based energies and reconnects one to the source of Love. He contrasted the cause world, which is aligned with the Creator, with the effect world, which is limited to appearances and material circumstances. Yeshua’s teaching, he emphasized, was to stay focused on cause rather than being hypnotized by effect, for “you cannot serve God and mammon.” This means choosing to live in alignment with Source rather than being trapped by appearances.

The workshop then described four stages of consciousness around abundance: never enough, day late and dollar short, just enough, and finally total abundance. Each stage reflects the mind energy a person holds, and unresolved beliefs will keep recreating limitation even if circumstances temporarily change. Healing crises, whether financial, relational, or physical, are part of the clearing process, and faith is the ability to stay focused on cause despite temporary effects. Exercises invited participants to imagine poverty, mediocrity, and opulence, noticing the messages and limitations absorbed from parents, authority figures, and friends. By identifying these unconscious energies and inviting the Aramaic Rukha d’Koodsha—the elemental force that undoes error—participants could release limitation and open to abundance.

The session concluded with practical guidance on living as a conscious creator. Ryce reminded listeners that abundance begins in cause, not in effect, and that “seeking first the kingdom of God” means investing time, intelligence, money, and energy in spiritual development. Tithing, he explained, is not only financial but about dedicating at least 10% of one’s life resources to seeking connection with Source. He closed with the affirmation that every human being is a divine creative presence, capable of choosing Love and abundance at every moment.

2nd hour prerecorded interview between “MitchRabin_MichaelRyce”

You can purchase the 2 hr video at https://whyagain.org/product/mind-body-bio-energetics/

December 5, 2023 2^nd hour replayed an episode of A Better World with Mitchell Rabin featured an extended interview with Michael Ryce about his journey from electronics and physics into naturopathic medicine, Aramaic studies, and the development of his healing tools. Ryce explained that his own early struggles with chronic illness drove him to seek alternatives beyond conventional medicine. By studying the body as an energy system, he came to see that mind energy—whether integrative or disintegrative—directly impacts physiology. He stressed that thoughts are not abstract but measurable energies that alter cellular function, noting that bacteria and viruses act as cleanup crews for decaying tissue, not the cause of disease.

The discussion highlighted the Aramaic roots of scripture and how mistranslations into Greek distorted the original meaning. Ryce explained that Aramaic is an “energy systems language” that describes how life works in lawful, practical terms. For example, the phrase about a camel passing through the eye of a needle referred not to impossibility but to a small gate in Jerusalem where travelers had to unload their camels to enter. He emphasized that Aramaic idioms make teachings logical and non-mystical, aligning perfectly with physics and the science of energy. He contrasted this with Greek thought, which externalized power and promoted blame, whereas Aramaic recognized power as internal, rooted in Love.

Ryce unpacked the distinction between actuality and reality, explaining that actuality is what is happening in the world, while reality is the limited picture generated by the mind. Drawing on Harvard research, he noted that the brain reduces billions of available bits of information down to just nine, creating illusions that we then project onto others. He stressed that denial and blame distort perception, creating hallucinated realities that damage physiology. Forgiveness, in Aramaic, is not pardoning someone else but a tool to collapse false realities and heal the self. He likened unforgiven emotions to poison: bitterness is “drinking a cup of poison and waiting for someone else to die.” These unresolved energies are passed generationally, registering even in germ cells.

The show also explored responsibility communication and relationship healing. Ryce explained that most people never truly relate to another person, only to images in their own minds. True healing begins when we stop saying “you made me angry” and instead acknowledge, “your words triggered anger in me, and I’d like to heal it.” He described his workshop Healing Through Relationships and the commitment statement taught there, which reframes relationship as a sacrament designed to bring unconscious pain to the surface for healing. By applying responsibility language, forgiveness tools, and commitment to Love, relationships can shift from conflict to cooperation, often transforming marriages on the brink of divorce into renewed partnerships.

The program closed with Ryce affirming that Love is the only energy that fuels the human mind properly. Any time we make something more important than connection to Love, we set the stage for death and dysfunction. He summarized this principle with a simple poem: “Each moment of love, each moment of giving, each moment of joy is a moment of living. Each moment of anger, each moment of lying, each moment of resentment is a moment of dying.” His message underscored that the tools of Aramaic forgiveness, responsibility communication, and daily practice restore the temple of the body and return us to our true nature as Love.

Caller Susan asked about “dullness” – doesn’t want to do anything. Lower Energy is a sign of healing crisis. https://whyagain.org/healingcrisis/  has a critical nature – I can’t let go of the feelings. Low grade crab mood. Where does your energy come from doing the gardening? MindShifter: “It is safe and healing and I enjoy my critical nature.” She said I do enjoy it. Kind on the outside and not so kind inside – two-faced.  We all get to choose – if you enjoy your critical nature you won’t get rid of it, you can keep it.  Look at your Power Person being crabby with you. Her mother used to laugh and compliment her when she was feisty. Thought: If nice and loving then I will be manipulating people and sucking up to them.  You can observe someone doing that and not be charged, just observing.  If hostility and fear then that is worksheets. Having a perception that is not flattering – key is am I in a disturbed state or remain in being and compassion.

Hostility is used to anesthetize pain. People who constantly attack are in tremendous pain.

Caller Dan, felt good and then felt irritable and dizzy and crashed. Identified it as a healing crisis and went for a walk and felt more sensitized and happy. Move through a layer, period of respite (connected space) where you realize the drama is gone in a situation. He is Jewish so the news of what Israel is doing triggers him – they are creating the trauma they fear..Job said ‘that which I fear most has come upon me’ …unconsciously passed generational to expect persecution.  Amplifier of fear brought it about, clean up my fear to get it all back.

December 6, 2023 2^nd hour hosted by Dr Michael Ryce opened with reflections on past connections, including his introduction to Bruce Lipton through Mitchell Rabin more than twenty years earlier. Ryce described how, through a set of coincidences, he called Lipton while Lipton was reading Why Is This Happening to Me Again?, and they discovered how closely their work aligned. He also shared about his current projects, including expanding his garden, noting that the physical labor brought up both strength and fatigue, which he related to the natural cycles of energy and healing.

The main segment of the show centered on listener calls. One caller, Susan, described feeling dull, low-energy, and critical, which Ryce identified as symptoms of a healing crisis. He explained that during such times, energy is being redirected to deep healing work and encouraged her to breathe, rest, and allow the process. Susan admitted she enjoyed her critical nature and recognized its roots in family modeling, particularly her mother’s approval of feistiness. Ryce guided her toward mind shifters and forgiveness worksheets, suggesting she trace these patterns back to power-person dynamics. He clarified that while perceptions may sometimes accurately identify destructive behaviors in others, the real work is in how much hostility or fear those perceptions trigger within us. The goal, he emphasized, is to observe without being consumed, and to bring Love to every perception.

Another major theme was the danger of generational trauma, particularly in religious or cultural systems. Ryce discussed the practice of “blanket training,” where infants are punished for leaving a designated space, illustrating how abuse is often framed as “love.” He criticized this cultural distortion and explained how it perpetuates trauma by teaching children that abuse equals love, a lie that must be healed through forgiveness. He connected this to the biblical teaching of removing the “beam from one’s own eye” before judging others, stressing that life will continue to present healing opportunities until we remove these distortions.

Later, a caller named Dan shared his own experiences of healing crises, alternating between vitality and exhaustion, and how recent political and cultural events related to Israel resonated with his Jewish upbringing. Ryce tied this to the biblical story of Job, emphasizing the principle that “that which I feared most has come upon me.” He explained how generational teachings of fear and persecution unconsciously recreate the very realities people want to avoid. Healing, he said, requires taking responsibility and refusing to project blame outward. He recalled presenting his Why Is This Happening to Me Again workshop at the Holocaust Museum, where the audience recognized the same truth: healing begins with personal ownership of fear and the willingness to collapse false realities.

The show closed with Ryce affirming that the purpose of life is to continually clear out anything that blocks awareness of our true essence as Love. He encouraged consistent use of the forgiveness tools, awareness of healing crises as part of the process, and holding a compassionate space for oneself and others—even when facing destructive cultural patterns or personal pain. Healing, he reminded listeners, is relentless, but so is the Love that drives it.

People live by their stories – how do you unify them if their stories are different? “Why Is This Happening To Me … AGAIN?!” story, instead of ending in blame to move to responsibility.

December 7, 2023 2^nd hour hosted by Dr Michael Ryce centered on how people live by their stories and the possibility of unifying across differences by reframing those stories. Ryce emphasized that most people’s “Why is this happening to me again?” stories end in blame, but the Aramaic forgiveness process invites a shift into responsibility. Instead of insisting that others must change for life to improve, healing begins when one realizes that the real shift must occur within oneself. Ryce noted that repeated conflicts—whether with parents, spouses, children, bosses, or governments—always reveal the common denominator: the self. The real question is, what am I ready to change in me?

The program included reflections from callers. Belinda described feeling that the broadcasts over the last month had been deeply supportive, noting how Ryce’s and Tim Hayes’ shows dovetailed in content. She shared her role as a “convener” in community projects like Pine Valley 2050 and the Dark Skies initiative. She explained how, since COVID, she has softened her approach to others, choosing instead to see Love and Christ in people and offer words of endearment as a way of diffusing hostility. Ryce affirmed her recognition that true healing is not about forcing others to change but about embodying Love, even in community and environmental work.

A key theme was the ecological and spiritual importance of awareness. Jeanie contributed by citing an article about the drastic decline of flying insects due to artificial night light, highlighting how light pollution disrupts ecosystems. Ryce tied this observation to the larger principle of living with consideration for creation, recognizing the harm caused when humans disregard natural law. This expanded into a discussion of the Aramaic meaning of “Satan,” not as an external being but as being trapped in carbon-based memory, replaying the past instead of receiving fresh inspiration from Love. Forgiveness, Ryce reminded listeners, is the tool for collapsing these false perceptions and reconnecting to the true mind we are designed to live in.

Another caller, Dusty, asked about the history of the Khabouris manuscript, which Ryce traced back to a 7th-century copy of a 2nd-century Aramaic New Testament text. He described how his late colleague Dan McDougald gathered 25 Aramaicists and native speakers to ensure accurate translation using rules of evidence, leading to the rediscovery of Aramaic forgiveness as collapsing false perception. Ryce encouraged listeners to engage the Beatitudes and the Lord’s Prayer not as rote recitations but as sets of practical instructions for achieving results. The show closed with reflections on wholeness, the true meaning of “holy days,” and reminders that every moment counts as an opportunity to live as Love.

December 8, 2023 2^nd hour opened with Jeanie sharing personal updates, including participating in a Christmas parade with her family, before inviting listeners to engage. Michael Ryce soon joined, describing efforts to connect with a holistic conference hosted by Dr. John Lieurance in Florida, where cutting-edge chiropractic neurology and natural health approaches were being presented. He reflected on his past experiences with pioneers like V.E. Irons, connecting the relevance of natural cleansing and bodywork to today’s ongoing healing discoveries.

A caller raised the issue of family traditions and disappointment when holiday meals seemed unappreciated. Michael guided him to see how the sense of “not caring” is a generational pattern projected onto family experiences. He explained that canceling a goal does not mean giving up or ceasing to care, but rather dissolving the pain and trauma that surface when that goal resonates unresolved energy. Once cleared, caring can be reestablished from Love rather than resentment. He tied this directly to Yeshua’s Aramaic teaching of Rakhma—a frontal lobe gateway through which Love enters the mind and sustains human life. Closing this gateway with hostility, fear, or conclusions such as “nobody cares” distorts perception, while forgiveness reopens it.

Michael emphasized that family patterns of absence or neglect are often replayed across generations, with children mirroring what parents unconsciously modeled. He used the song Cats in the Cradle to illustrate how children absorb and replicate these dynamics. Healing requires owning the projections, canceling goals that surface unresolved pain, and recommitting to show up as Love. He reminded listeners of A Course in Miracles’ principle, “When you are healed, you are never healed alone,” because individual healing always reverberates through family and culture.

The conversation also turned to physical healing. A caller shared progress using the Avacyn device for neuropathy, reducing symptoms dramatically within weeks. Michael connected this improvement to the deeper emotional root of diabetes, which he identified as unresolved grief. He explained how releasing grief and other toxic energies can complement physical supports, bringing true healing rather than just treatment. He stressed the difference between treatment, which manages symptoms, and healing, which removes the energetic causes of disease. Yeshua’s teaching, he said, offered the highest form of healing by showing how to collapse toxic pictures painted on the inside of the mind and restore the flow of Love.

The hour closed with Jeanie sharing a personal story of leaving her church after her pastor condemned her for extending unconditional love. She and Michael reflected on how religion often distorts Yeshua’s message, substituting fear and control for the simplicity of Love. They affirmed that true discipleship means showing up as Love for everyone, regardless of belief or lifestyle, and that anything less is a thought disorder that requires forgiveness.

michael talked about resonance. Look at Cymatics (https://cymatics.fm/)

frequency creates motion. In humans it creates motion toward. Mind Energy is motion. Job said “that which I feared most has come upon me” When he forgave his fear he received twice what he lost.

Then projection happens – our dissociated thoughts become visual images and we think ‘they’ are the problem. If love is present, life moving in us, our projections would dissolve.

Last night we watched “20 Days of Mariupol” AP documentary – the merciless slaughter (denial, dissociation and projection). Y’Shua said “I have come to bring you life.” Life is Love flowing through every cell.

Look up the lyrics to “My Grown Up Christmas List” or listen to Kelly Clarkson sing it

December 11, 2023 2^nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce focused on the universal story of humanity: “Why is this happening to me again?” Ryce explained that while cultural, religious, and geographical differences create apparent separation, the one story that unites us all is the repeated cycle of suffering caused by blame and denial. He shared how the title of his book and workshop emerged spontaneously decades ago while writing about relationships, and how its resonance comes from the fact that every human being recognizes this pattern. He emphasized that we live in a “one world religion of blame,” trained into us by age four, and that until we move beyond it, we remain trapped in illusions projected from our own unhealed content.

Ryce then introduced the principle of resonance through physics metaphors. Using tuning forks and pianos as examples, he explained how mind energy, like sound frequency, organizes matter and physiology. He referenced cymatics to illustrate how sound shapes patterns in energy and matter, noting that our voice functions as a somatic instrument that structures our bodies through resonance. He tied this to the biblical opening of John, offering an Aramaic translation: “In the beginning was the mind energy, and the mind energy became flesh.” This perspective reframes scripture as physiology and physics, not theology. He linked it to Job’s realization: “That which I feared most has come upon me,” showing that fear and dread amplify resonance, creating motion toward experiences we do not want.

The show explored projection as an internal process. Ryce explained that when someone resonates a dissociated part of our mind, we build a picture of them using our own corrupt data and then believe that image is real. This cycle of denial, projection, and blame makes others appear to be the cause of our pain. He emphasized that the indicator of projection is hostility or fear, which always signals the mind is using dissociated content. Forgiveness, in its Aramaic meaning, dissolves these false perceptions and allows us to reclaim responsibility. He stressed that perception is always about the contents of our own mind, not about external reality.

Jeanie contributed by sharing the song My Grown-Up Christmas List, which took on deeper meaning after the couple watched the film 20 Days in Mariupol, documenting graphic war violence. The juxtaposition highlighted how denial and projection lead to the extremes of war and slaughter, while the work of forgiveness and Love can dissolve the roots of rage, guilt, and fear. Ryce reminded listeners that Yeshua’s message was simple: “I come to bring you life,” defined as Love flowing through every cell. He explained that holding the breath locks disintegrative energy into tissue, creating disease and unconscious patterns, while breathing keeps access open to hidden dynamics for healing.

The show closed with calls from listeners. One caller noticed stopping his breath repeatedly while doing worksheets, which Ryce explained as the veil between subconscious and unconscious attempting to stay closed. He emphasized breathing as the way to dissolve trauma and open unconscious patterns. Another caller reflected on animals’ lack of offense compared to humans, leading to a discussion of generational trauma and vitality levels needed to process deeper layers. Ryce explained that unresolved energies from parents, grandparents, and even many generations back remain in our genes until dissolved by Love. He encouraged using all the tools—worksheets, mind shifters, breathing, and energy field work—to lift these layers and return to vitality. Healing, he said, is a lifelong process of upgrading mind energy from hostility and fear to Love.

December 13, 2023 2^nd hour began with Jeanie announcing the launch of a new series in January that will explore the Khabouris Manuscript and the book Enlightenment, a translation and study guide drawn from that ancient Aramaic text. Michael Ryce explained the history of how the manuscript was discovered in the 1960s at the headwaters of the Euphrates River, carbon-dated to around 1000 AD, and considered a copy of an even earlier text from about 165 AD. He described how this work, involving twenty top Aramaic scholars and native speakers, reveals the first-century meanings of Yeshua’s words, preserved in idioms that are lost in Greek translations. He gave the example of the word “cool,” which literally translates as “low body temperature,” but idiomatically means “wonderful.” He emphasized that much of what passes for theology today is actually mistranslation, with the Greeks distorting Yeshua’s physiological, psychological, and energetic teachings into dogma.

Ryce also spoke about his collaboration with Dan McDougald, which began when they combined their courses—McDougald’s Emotional Maturity Instruction and Ryce’s Lessons in Living—to create Laws of Living. This work, rooted in the Aramaic understanding of perception and responsibility, was used in prison systems with remarkable results. He recalled stories of inmates joyfully learning to keep Rakhma—the frontal lobe filter for Love—active in their minds, even after lifetimes of rage and trauma. Judge Pasadena Kelly, who championed bringing the Aramaic-based curriculum into Georgia prisons, saw recidivism rates drop from 96% to 3%. However, financial interests in keeping prisons full eventually led to the program’s removal, prompting Judge Kelly to resign in protest, an act Ryce praised as one of integrity.

The conversation then turned toward the cultural and generational inertia that shapes perception. Ryce explained that every person inherits a “multi-quadrillion database” of unresolved trauma encoded in their genes and cells. Unless these are dissolved through the first-century Aramaic tool of forgiveness, perception will remain corrupted by hostility and fear. He criticized modern intellectual atheists, such as Richard Dawkins, who celebrate sarcasm without realizing its destructive roots. Sarcasm, Ryce noted, literally means “to tear flesh” and is a socially acceptable mask for rage. He emphasized that whenever hostility or fear governs perception, the mind is drawing on its most corrupt data, making accurate perception impossible.

Ryce closed by reminding listeners that Yeshua did not deliver a theology of helplessness but a practical psychology of healing. Forgiveness is the technology for collapsing false perception and reconnecting with Love. He reiterated that the Khabouris Manuscript holds treasures of idioms and insights that reveal these tools in their original power, and beginning January 15th, the show will devote focused study sessions to the Enlightenment book. Jeanie added details on ordering the text and explained that donations marked for Enlightenment would include free shipping. Together, they invited listeners to join in this next phase of exploring Yeshua’s first-century Aramaic teachings.

Caller Susan, reading the “Give and Take” book by Adam Grant. Dr Tim said one take away is that a percentage of what I give is for givers (matchers) and not just takers. Consider how are these people living in the world.

If you have impulse to give and doing it from calm, safe happy centered self then ok but if giving while expecting the receiver to do something then not so good. Does it flow or is it a struggle?

December 14, 2023 2^nd hour opened with Jeanie hosting while waiting for Michael Ryce to join. She shared updates about upcoming events, including the annual StillPoint Breathing Club and the launch of a new series on the Khabouris Manuscript through the book Enlightenment. Michael explained that this book reveals layers of Aramaic teaching lost in Greek translations, and they were preparing to send copies to listeners, inviting them to mark donations with “Enlightenment” to receive one.

The central theme of the show was the difference between perception and actuality. Ryce emphasized that perception is generated by the carbon-based memory mind, painting pictures on the inside of the eyeballs rather than presenting reality. Eyes do not see, he explained; the brain interprets frequencies of light into images, which are always based on past memory. Because of this, judgment is unavoidable when living in perception, since it is constructed from old data. The ancient teachings, he reminded listeners, invited us to step into the “mind of Christ,” or the mind of Love, which gives direct access to actuality. Forgiveness collapses false perceptions, allowing us to experience live, inspired input from the Creator rather than recycled memories.

Listeners called in to share experiences. Joanna admitted to struggling with keeping commitments and feeling stuck in “wanting to be right.” Ryce guided her to see how worksheets dissolve those patterns and collapse fantasy-based stories. He marveled that Yeshua’s first-century teachings provided exact tools to collapse false perception, which modern neuroscience, like Anil Seth’s TED talk, now confirms. Joanna also recalled how Peter in Sweden described these forgiveness tools as the most powerful he had ever encountered, having brought many spiritual teachers to Europe. Ryce affirmed this, saying nothing compares with the technology of Aramaic forgiveness to collapse illusions and expand awareness.

The show also featured tender stories about Ryce’s granddaughter Arya, who demonstrated remarkable intuitive awareness. She told Michael that “we see with our brain, not with our eyes” and described consciously directing her dreams to ensure they were always sweet. Arya also showed an instinct for holding space for classmates’ anger, even saying she could “read minds” and help people feel better. Michael and Jeanie highlighted how children raised in a field of Love can maintain their natural intuitive knowing, modeling what is possible for humanity when conditioning of hostility and fear does not close the Rakhma filter.

The final part of the show focused on healing crises and body detox. One caller described his sister’s full-body rash, and Michael suggested breathing, energy field work, and colon cleansing, noting that when the colon is blocked, the skin often becomes the fallback detox organ. Another caller, Terry, reflected on StillPoint Breathing and the therapeutic power of one human holding a loving space for another, echoing the 12-step principle that such presence has no equal. Ryce agreed, sharing how his energy field techniques synthesized decades of study to support people entering StillPoint, where healing accelerates. He closed by reminding listeners that living in memory perpetuates the past, but collapsing perception through forgiveness opens direct relationship with Love—the mind we were designed to live in.

Dr Tim suggests/discusses the book “Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art” by James Nestor and nothing outside of you (including this book) can make you feel anything.Tonight is Dr Tim’s Thursday Support Group. Links to join both Tuesday and Thursday are on https://mindshifters-academy.org/ (they are different links)Continue reading Way of Mastery Lesson 4 was about the Energy of Creation, flowing through each of us and wants to express uniquely. Lesson 5- Keys to the Kingdom – ask to be taught. Move into the space of witnessing and observing your life. You can’t be separate from that which created you. Wake up to the fact there is not ‘should’ ‘have to’ and there is no ‘being good enough’. Wake up to what is here – nothing to achieve. You are part of the one mind and infinite intelligence. Once awake to that, ask to be taught by that, then everything changes.

Beginning January 15th we will begin a study with the ‘Enlightenment’ from the KhabourisCaller Dusty, the ‘Enlightenment’ is a tremendous resource. Caller Peter shared how fast the work worked in his life last week.Caller Tom & Jurate, thankful for what has been shared and the reinforcement, reminder of what we need to do. Absent from the pomegranate and present with the show. michael shared ’emotional release exercise’ and the insight he got when working with someone yesterday. Realized a key part of letting go of attachments is strengthening our-self as human beings. Understanding how this instrument called a body works.

December 21, 2023 2^nd hour opened with Jeanie welcoming listeners back after a four-day outage caused by BlogTalk Radio equipment failure. Michael Ryce expressed gratitude for BlogTalk’s service, noting that it has carried their conversations for twelve years and now contains over 4,000 hours of archived shows. He encouraged listeners to use the archives and podcasts such as iHeartRadio to revisit teachings and make them searchable by contributing notes or summaries of episodes.

The heart of the show turned to the nature of perception and forgiveness. Ryce explained that perception is generated by carbon-based memory, which reflects old content from the past rather than showing reality. He connected this to the ancient Aramaic understanding of “Satan” as “the resistor” or “mind of man,” not a red-suited figure, but the state of being trapped in memory and illusion. He emphasized that Yeshua’s teaching was not about pardoning others, as Greek theology later suggested, but about going into the unconscious and removing painful content through forgiveness. True forgiveness, he stressed, is not letting others off the hook but collapsing the pictures created by one’s own unresolved energy, allowing Love to dissolve trauma.

Jeanie and Michael reflected on how generational patterns of anger, grief, and fear are passed on unless actively removed. They illustrated how even cherished children can become objects of projected rage if unresolved content remains, highlighting the urgency of forgiveness work to prevent repetition of the “Why is this happening to me again?” cycle. Ryce reminded listeners that Yeshua’s words to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan,” were a call to leave behind the carbon-based memory mind and live instead in the mind of Love. He contrasted living in perception—“the dead burying the dead”—with stepping into actuality, where inspiration flows directly from the Creator.

The show also explored the metaphor of BlogTalk’s equipment repairs as a parallel to personal healing. Just as technicians upgrade parts for improved function, each person must learn to operate and repair their own body-mind instrument. Ryce compared unresolved hostility and fear to listening to Bach on a scratchy crystal radio, while forgiveness upgrades the system to the fidelity of a $100,000 stereo, allowing Love to resonate fully through the human instrument. He closed by affirming that every act of forgiveness removes blocks from generational memory, restoring the designed purpose of the human mind and body as instruments of Love.

Polyvagal Theory “Our autonomic nervous system is all about safety. Polyvagal Theory offers precise science to understanding how the vagus nerve, one part of this system, which connects the brain, to the heart, to the viscera (the organs of the belly), relates to our human ability to connect and communicate with each other.“

Focus mind energy in a certain pattern and there will be physiological changes. Vegas nerve. In therapy, pay attention to signs of spacing out or arousal or such.

Caller Susan asked about Dr Tim’s knee. Recovered faster than anyone could imagine.

Caller Magda, responsibility is sometimes hard for someone to hear.  Read the room and person if they can accept what they are told.

December 22, 2023 2^nd hour opened with Jeanie welcoming listeners into the holiday season, reminding them that the “Holy Days” often surface unresolved issues, and the show was here to support people through them. Michael Ryce joined and responded to a listener’s letter about her work with the Power Person worksheet. The writer, Alexi, shared that her mother, who had passed when she was young, had long been her Power Person, and in relationships with older men she often reverted to old coping patterns of avoidance and fawning. Through years of forgiveness work, she felt she had released her mother’s role as Power Person, even experiencing love for her again. She asked whether further steps could help deepen the healing.

Ryce affirmed her progress but explained that Power Person dynamics are almost always multigenerational, passed down unconsciously through families. He emphasized that the behaviors and thought disorders involved are deeply embedded structures of energy that will continue surfacing as vitality builds, much like new layers of healing emerge in intensive programs. He encouraged her to keep using all the tools available—Reality Management Worksheets, Power Person worksheets, and particularly the expanded 14-page version developed during recent codependence-to-interdependence intensives. He noted that real healing is a layered process, requiring persistent engagement and forgiveness over time, sometimes even across generations.

The conversation expanded into how unresolved Power Person dynamics run the world, influencing governments, churches, families, and businesses alike. Michael described how under stress, people repeat one of three patterns tied to their Power Person: appeasing, resisting, or reenacting what was most hated. He explained that these behaviors are controlled by the unconscious automatic decision system and can only be unraveled by forgiveness and responsibility communication. He shared that even though people may consciously vow not to repeat their parents’ patterns, the unconscious takes over under stress until those underlying energies are collapsed.

The discussion then turned to advanced practices such as doing worksheets not only on oneself but from the perspective of the Power Person (for example, doing a worksheet as if one were the mother). This helps uncover new insights into generational patterns. Ryce also highlighted the value of the personal code evaluation, a tool used in intensives to measure progress and identify blind spots. He explained that as people commit to their healing, deeper memories and traumas surface—sometimes even ancestral ones—providing the opportunity for resolution. Jeanie added her own reflections, questioning whether one can completely dismantle a Power Person dynamic. Michael responded that it is possible, though rare and requiring deep, multigenerational work.

The show closed with a broader reflection on perception and forgiveness. Michael described how perception is never objective but a projection of past memory. Forgiveness collapses these false constructs, revealing actuality and Love. He emphasized that true healing requires moving beyond perception and memory into trust of the Creator’s mind within, which always provides fresh inspiration. They encouraged listeners to continue using the free Heartland Aramaic Forgiveness app, the Power Person worksheets, and the radio community for ongoing support.

He expanded this teaching into the Aramaic understanding of “sin,” which means “off the mark.” Sin is not moral guilt but simply missing the target of Love. Just as poison damages the body, hostile or fearful thoughts produce frequencies that undermine physiology and lead to death. Ryce explained that generationally, we inherit patterns of “off the mark” energy, which he called the universal religion of blame. Unless forgiveness is applied, these unresolved energies dictate perceptions, cause disease, and repeat as “Why is this happening to me again?” cycles across lifetimes and families.

The show included calls from listeners. Dan described how 12-step recovery helped him see that his perceptions were not actuality but projections of his internal world. He shared how the 4th and 5th steps—moral inventory and admitting wrongs—taught him to revise beliefs rather than berate himself. Ryce affirmed that the Oxford Group, the root of AA, was influenced by Aramaic scripture study, making these steps parallel to forgiveness practices. He also told the story of a play that moved him deeply with the line: “Now that the truth has been told, there’s room for real love.” He explained that truth-telling dissolves falsehood, allowing Love to show up in its purity.

Other callers shared personal stories, including family holiday traditions, struggles with relationships, and questions about overpopulation if death were truly unnecessary. Ryce responded that if humanity lived as Love from the beginning, creativity would have solved such questions long ago. He pointed to innovations in food production and space exploration as hints of what could unfold if the mind of Christ, rather than the mind of man, guided the world. He closed by inviting listeners to join the upcoming January 15 study of the Enlightenment book, a translation of the Khabouris Manuscript, offering insights into first-century Aramaic idioms and teachings.

Announcement January 15, 2024 we begin a study on the Enlightenment (translated from Khabouris). To order your copy to follow along with us, make a donation on the website https://whyagain.org/donations/ for $26 (covers PayPal’s fee) and we will pay shipping to you.michael spoke of idioms.What comes into the senses and resonates the past and your mind makes pictures out of the information. Carbon Based Memory system (CBM) stores everything. The non-being (CBM of self) has to die for your true Being to live. Fear is the beginning of negative creative process. Keeps you from experiencing love.

December 28, 2023 2^nd hour hosted by Michael Ryce sharing his excitement about returning to a deep study of the Khabouris Manuscript through the book Enlightenment. He explained how this ancient Aramaic New Testament text preserves idioms lost in Greek translation, comparing the Greek approach to a humorous cartoon where modern idioms were misunderstood literally. Just as the cartoon characters failed to grasp slang, the Greeks missed the living energy and meaning of Aramaic, reducing practical teachings into distortions. Ryce emphasized that the upcoming year-long study would help restore the original depth of Yeshua’s words.

The conversation then turned to the nature of perception. Ryce explained that the human mind functions like a computer or a television, converting past data into images painted on the inside of the eyeballs. This “carbon-based memory system” stores multi-generational trauma and experiences, and when activated, it produces perceptions that are not actuality but appearances of the past. He tied this to the biblical reference of 666, representing the carbon atom, showing how living in this mind is living “dead and blind.” Yeshua’s instruction to “let the dead bury the dead” was an invitation to stop living out of past-based perception and instead live in the “mind of Love,” which connects directly to actuality.

Ryce expanded on forgiveness as removal. He explained that forgiveness is not pardoning someone else but removing from the heart the hostile or fearful content projected onto others. Drawing from A Course in Miracles, he noted that “perception is a skill made up by you to take the place of creation,” and that true forgiveness dismantles the false self built from Power Person messages. He warned against doctrines teaching that “fear of God is the beginning of wisdom,” calling such distortions the foundation of stupidity, since fear only amplifies destructive creation. He pointed back to Job’s lesson that “that which I feared most has come upon me,” underscoring how fear attracts and generates suffering.

Listeners joined the discussion with personal reflections. Bob from Australia called in, sharing his health challenges, including concerns about possible prostate cancer, a perforated eardrum, and the flu. Ryce encouraged him to see illness as the body’s natural elimination process rather than an enemy to be suppressed, suggesting he cooperate with the healing crisis by supporting the immune system with natural remedies. Bob agreed, affirming his trust in nature’s wisdom over symptom-suppressing medicine. The two shared humor, warmth, and encouragement, reframing the experience as a sign of deeper healing rather than decline.

Later, Celinda shared her excitement about the Enlightenment study and her personal growth journey, particularly through the Personal Code Evaluation. Ryce assigned her to focus on “listening and receiving information as offered” rather than filling space with words, tying this to her top challenge of honoring truth. He explained that the carbon-based memory system resists listening by immediately reacting or defending, and that true transformation comes by quieting that impulse. Celinda embraced this insight, realizing her need to cancel the goals of “being right” and “being heard,” and expressed gratitude for the forgiveness process unfolding even within the conversation itself.

The show closed with reminders that words themselves carry frequencies that shape physiology through cymatics, reinforcing the ancient teaching that “in the beginning was the mind energy, and the mind energy became flesh.” Ryce encouraged listeners to continue removing hostile and fearful patterns through forgiveness, thereby restoring their genetic expression and aligning with the mind of Love. Both he and Jeanie extended blessings for the new year, inviting everyone to create the “best year yet of their eternal life” by living from inspiration rather than memory.
