Listen to "The Divine" on https://music.apple.com/us/album/the-divine-single/1865756730 or your favorite streaming platforms.

http://OrderOfTheOne.com

“The Divine” is something every human being on earth wonders about. It is both mysterious and seemingly unknowable as to its ways and processes. It is called many names by many peoples across many continents—even unto the remotest places of the world. It is the spiritual connection to something greater than ourselves that lay dormant in the hearts of all mankind. It awaits our discovery and uncovering of all its brilliance. It speaks to the soul of man through his very heartbeat. It sends messages of Light through the Mind of man. It communicates through the still small voice within us. And we likewise, may also communicate with “The Divine.”

This very REAL relationship is of an internal Nature, though its reflection in the outer world is of an external Nature. It is the thinking of “The Divine” that creates Nature itself. It is the thinking of “The Divine” that creates Man himself. And man creates likewise from the forms made by the Creator—the Formless Former of Forms. God gives to man all the materials of creation for his own creating.

Matter is the Universal Mind of the Creator expressed in dynamic rhythms of the Creator’s thinking. We see it through our electric senses and ponder its beauty through our knowing minds. The ecstasy of “The Divine,” is translated by man for the glory of man, that he may come to know within himself, his own divinity, which uplifts him in kind and brings him closer to God.

For man is not merely flesh and blood, he is mind and spirit. “The Divine” awaits man patiently.

“All men will come to me in due time. But theirs is the agony of awaiting.” ~Walter Bowman Russell

Featuring Jen Ven, a full-time researcher of fringe subjects, she survived multiple near death experiences and overcame quadriplegic paralysis conditions with but the unrelenting focus of her mind—defying all her doctors predictions that she would never walk again. We discuss the nature of those experiences and how being “conscious of consciousness” itself was nonelective to said experiences. We also discuss the medical establishment’s “consensus” error protocols and diagnoses, and how “believing” and “following the science” could be a massive limitation or death sentence. This conversation will prove to be highly interesting regarding the journey into death and the MIND behind matter. Recorded 11/15/2025. Runtime 73 minutes.

]]><![CDATA[Here For The Truth - Truth Warrior Roundtable]]>Sun, 05 Oct 2025 13:16:16 GMThttps://www.mattpresti.com/posts/here-for-the-truth-truth-warrior-roundtable
In this third edition of the Truth Warrior Roundtable, we sit down with David Whitehead and Matt Presti to tackle one of the most turbulent moments in recent memory — the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the shockwaves it sent through the “truth” community. We break down the reactions on both the left and the right, the flood of conspiracy claims surrounding the event, and how Israel once again became a central point of debate in the aftermath.

This conversation goes beyond headlines to address the deeper war on consciousness itself — why people struggle to hold uncertainty, the consequences of irresponsible speech, the role of faith and resilience in times of tragedy, and how to stay grounded in evidence and individualism rather than clickbait and emotional manipulation.
