“The answers to life’s greatest questions are hidden from us, but they are not kept from us. However, only he who seeks shall find.” At some point in our lives, we have all looked up into the cosmos and asked ourselves why are we here? Being a Nasa Engineer has given David Gaggin an interesting perspective on this question. How would our lives change if we knew there was more to life than what our five senses can tell us. Join us for an inspiring conversation as we lift the veil on the material world and unravel the mysteries of life with David Gaggin.

About Guest David Gaggin

David Gaggin completed an ambitious five year dual degree program, earning a BS in Math from St Lawrence University and a BS in Electrical Engineering from Penn State University. He then went on to receive a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering from Villanova University.

Subsequently Gaggin spent nine years as a senior executive with the US Army directing avionics and command and control R&D. During this period he also directed joint Army/NASA laboratories at Langley and Ames and was the US Army’s representative on the NATO Advisory Group for Aerospace R&D.

Taking advantage of his extensive training, he voraciously studied all the major religions and their origins. He read the ancient texts like the Books of the Dead, and The Kyballion. He read all the Vedic texts along with as many Puranas as he could easily locate. He studied the eastern and western philosophers from Pythagoras to Plato to Lao Tse to Emerson. As a trained engineer he studied all the sciences including quantum mechanics, relativity, cosmology, anthropology, and archeology. He explored the history of languages, along with the history of agriculture and domestic farming. He studied reincarnation, mystics, UFO’s. “I wanted to look at reality from every perspective I could think of,” he offers.

Eventually Gaggin’s extensive research began to coalesce into answers that made sense to his scientifically trained mind. He began to apply the principles of what he was learning to his own life. Inspired by the results and wanting to pass along his understandings, he compiled his learnings into his groundbreaking book The Endless Journey:A Unique Perspective on Mankind’s Origin, Purpose and Ultimate Destiny.

No matter what your point of view on Social Media may be, the verdict is out … Social Media is definitely here to stay.

Social Media impacts our lives in countless ways from how we engage with entertainment, to how we socialize, to how we market businesses and engage in commerce.

With so many options available, ranging from Facebook to Twitter, for those “not in the know” it has become confusing and even overwhelming to effectively tap into the ever changing world of Social Media.

Take Twitter for example which has become a powerhouse of information with unlimited potential for connection and engagement. Twitter’s ability to affect positive change in the world is often overlooked because of the complexity of Twitter’s inner workings which makes Twitter probably one of the most misunderstood among Social Media options.

Allayah welcomes Terri Sings With Ravens Rivera, a healer and singer from a long line of curanderas – female healers. They will be joined by Thomas Johnson Thunder Rock, a rock and fossil expert. On today’s show, they will discuss a recent event held at a mysterious Serpent Mound [http://goo.gl/bLjxjZ] [http://www.serpentmound.org/SeedFestival2015.html]. Why was this event – the Spring Seed and Water Peace Summit – held at the Serpent Mound? How were they able to convene such an event (free to the public) through love offerings only? How did Soaring Eagle Retreat play a role?

As well as discussing this recent event, Allayah – with Terri and Tom – will explore the purpose of The Alternate Universe Center of the Learning Center/Rock Shop in Ohio [http://goo.gl/pyTsNg]. Terri Sings With Ravens will also explain her vision of bringing indigenous elders, chiefs, and teachers to Serpent Mound, and the hopes of building a spiritual community which will honor the land. Finally, they will outline what future events will lend to this ongoing quest.

About Guest Terri Sings With Ravens Rivera

Terri Sings With Ravens Rivera’s ancestral heritage is O’otham (Pima), Aztec, Chilean, and Irish. She comes from a long line of curanderas — female healers — on her father’s side. Her maternal great-grandfather was an Irish/Chilean healer who came to the United States from Chile. He called himself a dentist, but did much healing and curing. At the age of five, Terri Sings With Ravens had a vision of the Lady of Guadalupe. It was this experience that inspired the song ‘My Lady Sings (Grandmother Aurelia’s song)’ from the album Blue Moon. As a singer/songwriter, Terri Sings With Ravens was nominated for a Native American Music Award and came in runner-up in the John Lennon song writing contest.

Terri Sings With Ravens collaborates with other healers to hold spiritual retreats at the Serpent Mound, a site in Southern Ohio. She and her husband Tom (Johnson) own Alternate Universe Learning Center/Rock Shop. (House of Phacops) just three miles from the Serpent Mound State Park and on the southeastern edge of a five-mile wide impact crater. The shop is also sitting on top of a 17.5 km long fault line that is miles deep and is emitting a constant flow of positive energy. Terri has presented at workshops throughout the U.S. and Mexico and has worked with healers from around the world to hold spiritual retreats in various global locations.

Terri’s husband, Thomas Johnson Thunder Rock (Tom), is a rock man from Michigan and has been collecting rocks since he was four years old. Through the 1960s and 70s, he collected a lot around Sylvania, Ohio, in a 350 million year old seabed ninety feet under ground – until the MSHA and OSHA branches of government stopped his activity in 1979 [Mine Safety and Health Administration, Occupational Safety and Health Administration]. Tom then moved to southern Ohio and began collecting from an even older seabed of 438 million years. After many trips around the world to collect and study fossils dating back to 2.7 billion years, in 1984 Thomas Johnson Thunder Rock was recognized for his achievements by the Smithsonian Institution and the National Geographic Society. He has written three books and for many years has lectured on the subject of trilobites and meteor craters. Later this summer, Tom’s recent work on the Serpent Mound and adjoining meteor crater will air on the Ancient Aliens segment of television’s History channel. He has previously appeared on Ancient Aliens and the Old West along with Chief Golden Light Eagle/Standing Elk.
