Art Bell welcomed researcher and author Graham Hancock, who discussed lost ancient civilizations and the importance of exploring our own consciousness.
Hancock reiterated his premise that technologically advanced societies existed on Earth as far back as 12,000+ years ago -- the end of the last ice age. He said these civilizations were lost when a gigantic comet collided with the planet, causing the ice sheets to melt and raising sea levels by more than 400 feet. As evidence, Hancock pointed out that large stone monuments, some as big as Stone Henge, can be found 120 feet below the surface of the ocean off the coast of Japan.
According to Hancock, the Mayan calendar may provide an ancient warning of yet another cataclysmic event -- this one set to occur within a 40-year window surrounding December 21, 2012. Hancock believes the consequences of this future catastrophe could be less damaging or averted entirely if we can learn to transform our consciousness.
Hancock also strongly advocated a person's right to explore his own consciousness by using substances found in certain 'sacred plants.' He detailed his life-transforming experiences taking an ayahuasca brew made from plants containing a naturally occurring hallucinogenic known as dimethyltryptamine (DMT), as well as talked about Dr. Rick Strassman's work with the substance. Almost everyone who uses DMT encounters the same beings and receives the same kind of messages, Hancock reported. He believes these commonalities show that the drug helps people journey into a real spiritual realm, and proves that our consciousness survives death.
Graham Hancock is the author of the major international bestsellers The Sign and The Seal, Fingerprints of the Gods and Heaven's Mirror. His books have sold more than five million copies worldwide and have been translated into 27 languages. His public lectures and TV appearances, including the three-hour series Quest For The Lost Civilisation, have put his ideas before audiences of tens of millions. He has become recognised as an unconventional thinker who raises legitimate questions about humanity's history and prehistory and offers an increasingly popular challenge to the entrenched views of orthodox scholars.
He graduated from Durham University with First Class Honours in Sociology. He then went on to pursue a career in quality journalism, writing for many of Britain's leading newspapers.

Under funded asteroid collesion alert systems would also reveal spacecraft all the time, its why the project is under funded. it would detect large space craft with ease, when they shift into our dimension, you can see these craft shift on space shuttle videos. so obviously when they come into view, they would also block radar waves and send them back and look like an intellegent asteroid moving and turning hah.
Graham, I am glad I found your talks, I want to go to the amazon now. GREAT SERIES!

Shamanism is the New world order, it's been forseen already =-) The Evil forces of the illuminati Fail miserably against Shamanistic rituals of love and peace, forgetting who you dont want around is very powerful in group concentrations. If concentration camps happen, you use group intent to fix everything, everyone dancing together, happy and thinking the same things, will effect thier surroundings. The Illuminati are either LOVE ALSO, and Want this LOVE, or are the exact opposite of love, EVOL

Govt dos harm to us, they dont want us to have control. We must ignore people sometimes in order to do whats best, Everyone breaks a few laws, lets keep them the peaceful ones, with this information people become more aware how important it is to share and have love for all things, Govt obviously doesnt want this, the also know this information, its why the indians are almost all gone. They had Shamans also. Killed off strangly eh? Free land, well kill you there also, just lets coral them first.
