“The law of sympathy is one of the most basic parts of magic. It states that the more similar two objects are, the greater the sympathetic link. The greater the link, the more easily they influence each other.” - Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind, Goodreads

Altered states and the Ayahuasca journey of a Gringo Shaman

Previous guest John Alexander included fascinating details about his encounters with Shamans from around the world. John and his wife Victoria connected with The Gringo Shaman - Ron Wheelock. Through Victoria, I spoke with Ron to arrange our upcoming interview.

Here's a preview of Ron.


Referencing Reality Denied, John covers numerous encounters that defy explanation. One visit with a medium, well-known for her practice of table tipping (levitation), made a lasting impression. While the medium was unforgettable, details of the session faded. He says he wishes he had taken notes.

Life is like that. It happens in the details. Sometimes there are notes.

In prepping for the interview with Ron and to help integrate some of the crystal energy I started working with after our trip to Board Camp Crystal Mine, I scheduled an isolation float. (Floating KC)

About halfway into the session, there was an auditory cue, a short, staccato whistle. By that time I had slipped into an extremely relaxed state, almost to the point of dozing off. Improbable as it might seem, that sound was right next to me.

Alert and anticipating a follow up, the tapping started, a steady, rhythmic flow. As I counted the taps, I tried to rationalize that I could be hearing water dripping somewhere then opted to simply allow the process and stop putting energy into denial. 

The sound lead me into deeper trance state. That is when the visions started. Beautiful images of eyes. They morphed and changed colors. Yellows, greens, dark and deep hues of raspberry and vivid reds. The eyes blinked. Each was a reptile of some sort. Turtle, lizard, frog, snake. The snake was representational and carried the message. Interactive and engaging, information was given. The visions stopped and the tapping sound ended. I left exhilarated, grounded and refreshed.

Since my STE in 1997, I have had extraordinary visions and dreams. Some are spontaneous. Others accompany the regular practice of meditating to access insight. I haven't required a psychotropic assist. However, I have spoken with others who affirm they could never have realized a liberating mind state without it. Each travels his own path.

Ron Wheelock, based in Peru, is from Independence Kansas. Thus the name, The Gringo Shaman. Taking a circuitous route, he has embodied his healing role for 25 years. In this interview, Ron describes some of the unique aspects of various Ayahuasca sessions.

After my float session, I discovered another video with Ron that I hadn't seen. DMT and the Spirit of Plants. He mentions, frogs, lizards and snakes. I believe in dots connecting. The purpose is self-revealing - and the symbolism with animal messengers is personal. Fascinating.

Interview with John Alexander, so much material to explore we could barely scratch the surface. No problem. Cue Jeffrey Mishlove, who offers several interviews with John, covering a broad range of topics, including Remote Viewing and his books.



John Alexander is no stranger to the exotic, unusual and unexplained. A life-long explorer and experiencer of extraordinary consciousness research, metaphysics, energy medicine, paranormal and unexplained. His diverse background includes 32 years in the military (background), where he had access to and expertise in information that would otherwise be off limits to the general population.

Notable experiences include Silva Mind Control, Akido, researching interspecies communication and teaching psychokinesis. A world traveler, he has met healers and shamans in Peru, Tibet, Nepal (and elsewhere) and studied with Curanderos in South America. That is a very abbreviated list. More info on his website. Bio.

"Dr. Alexander 'calls it as he sees it' and has little use for conspiracy theorists, true believers who take in everything without questioning, or scoffers who refuse to accept facts no matter how persuasive. For nine years he served as a councilor for the Society for Scientific Exploration is a past president of the International Association for Near Death Studies, and a founding board member of the International Remote Viewer's Association."

The SSE and IRVA are holding a joint conference in June. If you have even the slightest interest in the subject matter, presenters and attendees offer excellent resources and material for further study. Information.

Suggested reading - 3 by John Alexander
1/UFOs: Myths Conspiracies, and Realities - Alexander succeeds in separating solid facts and credible witnesses from the myths and conspiracy theorists. Determining that UFOs, while real, are beyond current comprehension, he sees the extraterrestrial hypothesis as too narrow. UFOs remain an enigma, he concludes, since every time we think we have an answer, new observations make the problem more complex.
2/Reality Denied - UFO, Bigfoot, Healing, NDE, OBE, Voodoo, Poltergeists, Mediums, Ayahuasca, Fire walking, Dowsing, Spoon-bending, Shamanic Rituals. Alexander leaves no stone unturned.
3/The Warrior's Edge - Partial Amazon Review: Fascinating. By - a customer on September 5, 1999. This book was the first to reveal some experimental work in the field of "Enhancing Human Performance" carried out by the US military and intelligence community. A significant core of the book, for me, was the previously classified material on "The Jedi Project", which utilized NLP and similar advanced learning technologies to train soldiers in pistol shooting, with dramatic results.

After I interviewed Cheryl and Orville Murphy about the extraordinary parnormal/UFO/unexplained events at the Board Camp Crystal Mine, I made arrangements to visit ASAP.

Turns out there was a lot more to discover in the missing details - I had no idea Sasquatch was included. A surprise and a great learning experience!

Board Camp Crystal Mine
Guest House
One of two on the property. 

Andy and I made the trek to Arkansas over the weekend and the timing was excellent. Lyrid meteor showers Friday night. Fox25Boston has highlights.

A tour of the grounds included the event site and one giant curiosity - a large log that had been perched by unknown source in a tree. (I'll add that pic later.)

Levitating rocks and other light anomalies indicate unusual electromagnetic energy and that was what drew me. Their book details the fantastic events: Beams.

Cheryl says there has been a lot more activity since the book was published. They could easily add another book. No doubt she will. We'll talk again about the ongoing events and what I experienced during this visit in the next interview. One more thing. The crystals are spectacular.


4/22 guest on Wendy's Coffeehouse is Terry Albright. Round two.

An interesting coincidence in the timing. The Sasquatch connection. Terry gained a life long interest in Bigfoot after an encounter he talks about in the interview.

This is the (unrelated to that event) audio sample he promised to share. Terry says these are some of the sounds he and his friends have collected.



Fortunately, I didn't hear anything like this at the Board Camp Crystal Mine.
FYI - The first interview with Terry is here: Part One

Our interview opens with a detour, a dive into the movie stuff, stuff that scarred at least 70 cast and crew members. The injury count is an estimate that doesn't include those who left during the eleven year production. 

Roar - Terry w/Tippi Hendren
Haven't heard about the Movie, Roar? It's on screens now at the Alamo Draft House.

Bloody background: Animal Planet Documentary.

Wiki - 'Roar was shot on location at Noel Marshall's private ranch in Acton, California, with its production spanning a total of 11 years.[5] A flood at the ranch three years into the shooting process caused over $3 million in damages, creating further setbacks to the production.[5]'


Sasquatch or not ...
from Terry's collection
Enough with the blood. On to, according to some, blood-curdling.

What might a Bigfoot/Sasquatch print look like?

Maybe this is one. Terry and friends continue to search and research.

After my visit to Board Camp Crystal Mine, I am more curious about
Sasquatch encounters and, having seen some of the indications that
suggest a presence and so much more, I am convinced there is more to the mystery than can be resolved in an overnight or weekend stay.

(Regarding the paranormal activity there - I'll update in another post.)

Terry has been at this for awhile.

No doubt the best results require a dedicated researcher who lives in the environment 24/7.

Even then, some mysteries demand both exposure and a completely different mindset.

Beyond that, it might even require further evolution to access and maintain a level of conscious awareness we can be blocked from until our minds are sharpened to the higher realms.

In the direction we are headed the truth is intentionally hovering out of reach to encourage forward momentum...

in baby steps... to facilitate integration.


Picture epiphany in the dots that need connecting. The mystery is calling.

At of course the final minute of the show Terry opened a new topic. We're set for our June interview.
