The Biggest Secret

 

"The Cosmic Secret" is a two-hour presentation (or "film") made by David Wilcock and Corey Good, who both belong to the channeling-New Age-UFO milieu. Unless I´m mistaken, Good is the channel, while Wilcock is the theoretician, although he also claims to have met extraterrestrial intelligences. The borderline between contactee and abductee isn´t entirely clear in this case. Both men are inspired by the Law of One, a neo-Theosophical channeled message hailing from a Venusian named Ra. Good claims that the Ra collective visited him in the form of the so-called Blue Avians, bird-humanoid aliens with blue feather covering. Wilcock in particular is controversial, due to his conspiracy theories and pro-Trumpista orientation. 

The material in "The Cosmic Secret" is highly eclectic and frankly a bit confusing. It´s a kind of stream-of-consciousness smorgasbord of alternative ideas mined from a wide variety of sources: Zitchin, Hancock, Cremo and something akin to Velikovsky. We´re talking really hard catastrophism, complete with UFOs and alien civilizations landing on Earth, living inside the Moon, etc. Instead of Nibiru, we get two primordial planets, Maldek and Tiamat, which both exploded in an ancient cosmic cataclysm. Conspiracy theories featured include the Mandela effect, the secret space program, and alien abductions. One of the interviewees say that the "Chabad" (i.e. Hassidic Jews) are part of the Illuminati conspiracy, being "a Khazar cult". Ooops. 

There is also a somewhat unexpected Christian aspect to this material, although a "heretical" one. Wilcock is clearly fascinated by the apocalyptic aspect of Christianity. I suppose there is a similarity of sorts between the Rapture and the Ascension (the new agey concept of that name), but in Wilcock´s case, it goes beyond this to the apocalypse as such. Interestingly, Wilcock identifies the apocalypse with a major solar flash or solar flare, destroying most life on Earth, and claims that this pivotal cosmic event is predicted by many different religious traditions. 

The last ten minutes or so of "The Cosmic Secret" are the most surprising, since all the interviewees suddenly start talking about love, forgiveness, the unity of the human race, and similar New Age concepts. The contrast to the more "hard" conspiracist-alien abduction ideas is glaring (I wonder what Trump or QAnon would think of this!). 

I can´t say I particularly *liked* this production, but it shows that - surprisingly enough, at least to yours truly - the contactee and "shift of consciousness" milieux are still going strong, eight years after the 2012 fiasco. I´m not sure what to think of that, really, but there you go...
