The Building 4th Podcast

A walking conversation with a friend about the veil of forgetting, recorded on the trail and lightly cleaned up. Using the Law of Three and the Ra Contact, I talk through the Creator’s longing to know Itself, the logjam in third density before the veil (when free will was thought to reach all the way down but didn’t), the one Logos whose idea of a veil between the conscious and deep mind broke it...

At this Building 4th gathering, one of our members, Tim, led us through “Co-Creating Heaven Together: Practical Steps to a Better Tomorrow.” What is heaven: a place, a state of being, or both? Tim suggests heaven is a state of being in relation, a “proto-heaven” we are already building through our bonds of love, and offers four marks of heaven: Humor, Humility, Holiness and Historicity. Along the...

On the morning of November 8, half asleep and half awake, I saw the energy centers as Ra describes them in the Law of One — as one living tree rather than a column of lights along the spine. In this episode I walk a friend through the 3-D model I built from that vision. The heart (green ray) sits at the center, and everything grows from it. Red rises as the trunk, yellow bursts into branches, and...

What if the Great Pyramid is a funnel for intelligent energy — a shape that gathers the flow and organizes it, zone by zone, the way our own energy centers do? In this conversation with a friend, I walk through what the Ra Material says about the pyramids: why Ra built them (to lengthen our lives so we could learn the lessons of love), what the three chambers were for — initiation, study, and heal...

What if the Temple in Jerusalem were a map of your own soul? Dr. Troy Caldwell, MD, a retired Jungian psychiatrist and a founding member of Building 4th, leads us on an imaginative journey through Herod’s Temple, drawn from his book Adventures in Soul Making. Court by court, the seeker moves inward and upward. The path runs from the noisy marketplace of the ego, through the receptive stillness of...

In this second talk to the Building 4th community, Doug Scott continues his exploration of the angelic realm through the Ra Contact, with Daskalos's The Esoteric Teachings as a major secondary source. He pictures the Creator as a sphere and as a tree, distinguishes "angelic" as a quality of purity from "angelics" as the archangels' sub-agents, and offers an image for how we and our higher self gro...

In this talk to the Building 4th community, Doug Scott explores the angelic realm through the Ra Contact, with Daskalos's The Esoteric Teachings as a major secondary source. He offers a working theory of angels as something like algorithms, looks at the Great BASH as humanity's collective dark angel, and describes four faces of the demonic and how to meet temptation as catalyst. A note on slide 3:...

A chronological reconstruction, drawn from two years of study, of everything the Confederation reports about the entity called Yahweh: from the transfer of the Martian souls seventy-five thousand years ago, through the institution of the quarantine, the Orion hijacking of the name at Sinai, and the original Yahweh's long work of rectification. Episode Outline The disclaimer — DeMarcus opens by nam...

Tim leads the community in a musical exploration of joy, arguing that after so many nights spent on hardship and catalyst, we have earned an evening of levity. Opening with the question are you happy? and a story about three sons who each try to buy their mother's happiness, he establishes that no gift cannot become a burden and no burden cannot become a gift. He then reframes joy itself: drawing...

If there is still light outside your window, that light is coming from a being. This episode asks a question we usually skip: not what it is like for us to evolve in third density, but what it is like to evolve as a Solar Logos. The lifetime under discussion is the sun's lifetime — and we are inside it. Part two of a conversation begun two weeks earlier, opening with a short recap and then moving...

Summary DeMarcus revisits a presentation he first offered the community a couple of years ago, walking through what the Ra Contact and the Q'uo channelings tell us about the worlds that share our sun. Four planets in this system have hosted third-density life; two hold life now; one more may yet. The through-line is a single sub-Logos making a set of formative choices — the bipedal ape form, the o...

Doug offers a speculation built from the Ra Material, Christian mysticism, and process philosophy: that concrescence — Whitehead’s “the many become one, and are increased by one” — operates vertically across orders of magnitude, and that the Christ event was a oneing of the solar Logos with the sub-sub-Logoic level, which is us. The argument moves through two logjams. The first came before the vei...

Doug joins the circle from a backyard, phone propped in the grass, raking leaves for an eighty-five-year-old piano teacher who can no longer garden. What follows is a teaching on sorrow — what it's for, how to hold it without gripping — and then a guided practice for letting personal pain become a blessing for others. Drawing on Richard Rohr's The Tears of Things, the Law of One, and the Christian...

Summary: An open dialogue night that treats ET disclosure as one instance of a single motion — welcoming back what has been hidden or split off. We move between three registers of that motion: the cosmic (disclosure as a species integrating its own shadow, and the theological widening that asks of monotheism), the psychological (Internal Family Systems, the exiles and their protectors, and the anc...

Tim leads the community through a contemplative exploration of vulnerability and intimacy, picking up the thread from Doug's recent teaching on the significant self. Opening with a prayer to lift the heaviness of the season, Tim moves from Paul's thorn in the flesh to the myth of Achilles — reading the famous heel as the humble, grounded place where we meet our own finitude and our shadow. He trac...

In this gathering, Doug Scott offers a model he uses in the counseling room and traces it back to its roots in the Law of One. The starting point is a term Ra uses only twice — the significant self — which Doug reads as something close to the soul: the self that carries the harvest of all our past lives forward and meets each new incarnation already biased by who we have been. From there the conve...

A friend forwarded a New York Times essay — Katya Ungerman's "We Are Sliding Back Into the Middle Ages" — cataloguing the strange new texture of American life: Tucker Carlson's reported demon attack, a FEMA official's teleportation claim, the Easter surge of conversions to Catholicism and Orthodoxy, sworn UAP testimony about nonhuman "biologics," a humanoid robot on the White House red carpet. Ung...

Tim takes us on a journey from the tomb complex of Ramses II to the spiraling arms of the Milky Way, tracing the threads that connect ancient Egyptian mythology with the Law of One. Beginning with an inscription found in the world's oldest known library — Psyches Iatreion, "The House of Healing for the Soul" — Tim explores Ra's stated purpose in coming to Earth: the healing of mind/body/spirit com...

Doug Scott dissects a volatile week when sacred imagery and political spectacle collided: an AI-generated image of a president as Jesus, a vice president publicly lecturing Pope Leo XIV on theology, and a Pentagon prayer lifted from Pulp Fiction. He traces institutional reactions, shifting Catholic support, and the information networks that shield or amplify such violations. Through the lens of "L...

Episode Description In this episode, Austin Bridges (co-director of L/L Research) and Doug Scott present the first half of a structured introduction to the Ra Contact for process philosopher Matt Segall, whose work on Whitehead's process philosophy has been a central inspiration for Doug's book Raian Process Metaphysics. The conversation moves from the historical origins of the Ra Contact through...

Series: Building 4th Community — Member Presentations Russell takes us on a journey through the history and heart of Unitarian Universalism, from the Council of Nicaea in 325 CE to the pews of the First Unitarian Church of Dallas. He traces the anti-Trinitarian thread from Arius through the martyrdom of Michael Servetus — burned at the stake on green wood by John Calvin's Geneva — to the Transylva...

During Holy Week 2026 President Trump weaponized the language of Easter—issuing profanity-laced threats to destroy Iran’s infrastructure, mocking faith traditions, and celebrating a pilot’s rescue as a resurrection while claiming divine endorsement. The weekend collapsed Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter Sunday into a single cycle of domination and spectacle. The piece diagnoses this inversio...

Doug Scott examines Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s March 25 Pentagon prayer—asking God for “every round” to find its mark—and argues it reveals a dangerous politicized liturgy that sanctifies annihilation, misuses Christ’s name, and feeds a planetary thought-form he calls the Great BASH. Scott traces the theological, psychological, and institutional stakes, contrasts this moment with Francis of...

Part three of the Great BASH series profiles Peter Thiel as a systems architect who fuses Girardian diagnosis, Schmittian politics, transhumanist immortality projects, and Opus Dei networks—while delivering closed lectures in Rome on the Antichrist and sponsoring surveillance infrastructure (Palantir) named after Tolkien’s seeing‑stones (made by the "antichrist" figure in the stories). The episode...
