I think you're wonderful and I hope you'll do more podcasts. I'd like to hear your stories about life in and around London etc . Also the Laura you mentioned (guessing you meant last name Marion) told Delingpole she's on Odysee but I couldn't find her. More on the families would be helpful and I think interest in such research can only increase. Thank you

A relaxing pleasure listening to the talk. And that's what it was, more than an interview, like a stimulating natural exchange over coffee or a drink at a table in a cafe. With us having the privileged opportunity of "eavesdropping" on it. Love your voice.

Lucky James , he hasn't yet dipped into your back catalogue of articles other than the smoking one! You are such a good writer and your autobiographical pieces alone are worthy of their own book (I'd love to buy a hard copy of those). You and James could do a series of interviews - he hasn't touched the surface of your knowledge and research, this was just an appetiser! All the best Frances, I think you are great.

Oh! That was such a lovely comment to read, thanks a million! xx

There is something so much nicer about an interview that sounds like an interesting conversation than an interview per se.

Just listened to you on the Delingpod podcast. Great interview. I was wondering when your birthday was. You said you were 15 in 1967, so was I. That would mean we were born the same year.

My birthday is 2nd March. I was born in 1952. Glad you liked the interview! xx

I was born on February 26th. So I'm older than you. You're welcome! :-)

Just listened to this with hubby. We both thoroughly enjoyed it, so thanks Frances. I love Delingpole because he is pleasantly whacky and a deep thinker, open to others'viewpoints and on the right side. Next up is your chat with Jerm Warfare.

Very interesting! I am a retired GP but would love to learn more about the principles of Chinese medicine, can you recommend any books/videos etc? Thanks.

The subject is huge! My favourite book is also the most ancient. The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine is written as a conversation between the Yellow Emperor and his physician. It will help you get a basic understanding of the philosophy behind this medical practice.

I recently bought a new copy from Ebay.

"Master Lama Rasaji" (an American who trained in India and Tibet) says that the Yellow Emperor's physician was Lao Tsu himself, who went on to found a lamasery in Tibet. Jesus trained there--and taught the monks how to do the miracles he later performed in Judea. I have been trying to figure out whether that lama guy is the real deal or a fraud. You can find him at CircleofChi.com

I have found that his easy standing Tai Chi Gung exercises put me into contact with the chi in a very safe and gentle way.

I have never heard of the possibility of Dr Po being Lao Tzu! It surprised me! There is a close correlation between the miracles Jesus performed and the techniques employed by good TCM practitioners, hence my suspicion that Jesus and John the Baptist were students at a school somewhere on the old Silk Road. The Taoist and Tibetan lamas were known to provide hospitality and teaching all along those ancient communication lines and they regularly passed their knowledge back to their root Temples for inclusion in the Materia Medica and book of Strategies.

When China began to talk about re-establishing the Silk Road (Belt and Road Initiative) I was thrilled to think that, once again, real sharing of important knowledge would flourish in the world.

Today's "Rasaji Speaks" is on exactly this subject, as if a kiss from the Universe just for YOU!

Rasaji claims that the lamasery Lao Tsu founded also prepared the way for Jesus, sending missionaries to Judea to create the virgin and then 3 wise men to protect the infant. A truly beautiful story--I hope it is true.

Beyond refreshing lies real people. Respectful, loving, grounded with reality,

And most of all honest!

Now i say “if by attraction we could bring our life skills together on a large parcel of land and form a community similar to native Indians, then life could drastically improve”.

But we would need a deterrent! A nuke so no other entity gets any ideas. Ie, N Korea.

You are concerned about the wrong enemy!

I think you missed the point I was making about our aristocracy!

I loved listening to this. Your voice and accent is just as I would imagine and takes me back to where I was raised. Loved the part when you decided you’d have “a bit of a poke about” in that City of London job, also when you spoke about being a lover of "Life" itself. Interesting to know one of your sources to Black Nobility knowledge was Larouche. Hope you do more interviews like this (can’t find the Jerm Warfare one but I think because it hasn’t yet been published...).

This was wonderful listening. Thanks Frances! :)

I loved it. And... I feel the SAME WAY about Nature, and "God" and so forth. You're the first to say the same things!! I think I knew this already, but... it was so cool. ^_^

Lovely! And I do like James, never seen him before, he's a treat.

GOOD JOB! That was fun and interesting! xo xo xo

Bravo! Thoroughly enjoyable conversation with the two of you. Full of color and vigor. Thanks much for sharing :)

Listening to you speak, I fell in love with your heart, your humor, your smarts and life experience, your resilience - and especially, your deep love for and connection with Nature. It was nice to have a voice to put with your word and works. Thank you for sharing this delightful and insightful conversation with us.. I also respect what you shared about the connections you made with the time that Jesus was missing and its relationship with Chinese philosophy and natural medicine in complete harmony with Nature and yin/yang - and your conclusions on how they killed him, John the Baptist, and the rest of the story that was stolen from Christianity. Amazing. That really spoke to me and that what Jesus offered was a direct line to the Tao - no middle man or father God needed. The vast difference between the Old Testament and New Testament always baffled me. Hearing you explain your worship of Life feels like the Direct Line available to all of us - and how Nature is always there showing us the way. Big respect! "It's Magic!"

I was very surprised that you have not heard my previous interviews! Thank you very much for appreciating my views on Christianity. I hardly expected anyone to agree with me! xx

I don't think I've heard/read what you said about Jesus and Chinese medicine, but it makes Perfect Sense to me, too. Loaves and Fishes---- of course! ^_^
